Oh, yeah, and the translation is great. I love that there's so much else there that needs explored. It's way more interesting than, "I'm all alone." Wonder if Shannon just botched it, or why she would deliberately misinterpret, even after being pushed into translating?
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Just saw a promo for Letterman that said Evangeline Lilly will be on tonight.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
If she did actually know what the transmission was saying, she likely would've told them it said "I'm alone" instead of the more detailed acutal translation because she wanted to stay on the beach for rescue-which at the time she was sure was imminent. "I'm going to try to make it to the black rock" and "Whassisface has the keys" turns the transmission into a mystery that might have to be solved taking the doctor, and the guy with the tech skills away. Being selfish, she probably wouldn't have wanted them wasting their time on anything but getting her off the island.

Oh and she says that something is going to happen that is spoilery in a specific and in a non-specific sort of way, by which I mean she doesn't say which character or characters will be affected by what she said.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
sumi, she must mean Rose is the 15th main character. Though I don't think the actress gets a main title credit... but she is the only other person for whom we have both a name and at least a little bit of face-time and backstory.

Doesn't the marshal count? No, I guess not, we never did learn his name.
