[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Wow... a thousand-year supply of heroin, just for Charlie!
This was my first thought exactly. Let's hope they stay hidden.
At least there are some actual drug smugglers that got trapped on the island instead of more pesky fireworks smugglers.
I am disappointed we didn't see Locke's paraplegic-causing accident; I thought I saw it coming a million times. They tease awfully. I did see it coming when Locke got hit by a car. Saw it comin' with Michael, too, but Locke is much more bouncy, I see.
Saw Boone's second plane crash coming, too. Though at first I was yelling "cheeeeeaaaaaating!" at my TV after Locke woke up--was convinced that the dream was all the plane (and re-paralyzed Locke) we'd see.
also? Every time someone mentioned "immaculate coneception", I yelled at the TV "That's not what that means!!".
It's possible I take this show too seriously.
(Mousetrap! I *heart* that game! I wonder if my grandma still has it...)
Mousetrap!
I was thinking he sounded exactly the same as when he was explaining backgammon to Walt.
Well, Michael's car was going at an estimated 20+ mph, and Locke's was barely getting started out of the parking spot, so the force at which the two were hit would have been significantly different. Don't forget, though, that Locke HAS A PURPOSE!
They'll probably show us the paralysis somewhere in season 3.
Hee.

Even if it's being said by someone who is canonically lying and at least a little crazy?
"There were no survivors of Flight 815."
This is what I heard as well. Which suggests that that all/pieces of the Flight 815 have been recovered somewhere and casualities confirmed. The only ways I can parse this are;
1. The 815 did crash and everybody's dead and this is afterlife/purgatory, etc. which JJ and co. have said was NOT what they have planned.
2. The plane broke in half mid-air, right? What if the tail end of it landed in the "normal" ocean/universe where a search and rescue mission could be mounted, and the cockpit side of the plane with our survivors landed somewhere else off the map? Not just geographical map, but a place separate from the normal world--a tear in space-time continuum, a little pocket of AU where normal physical and biological laws do not apply? Of course, it'd have to be a weird-ass Bermuda Trangle-like place in which there could be a communication between two realities using radio waves.
I'm hoping that they don't go too far into Sci-Fi territory with the explanations. I don't mind unexplained coincidences, but rips in the space-time continuum is a bit much for this show, I think.
I was just starting on the TWoP thread for the ep, and someone pointed out another number reference--in the beginning, when Swoosie asks Locke about the footballs, he says, "Aisle 8 for regulation, Aisle 15 for Nerf."
It may just be as simple as the fact that when the plane went down, they never found it after extensive searching, and so presumed everyone on board died. So it's presumed nobody survived...but maybe people will start looking for them now...
(and maybe the island doesn't want them to be found and that's why the plane crashed to the ground at exactly that moment, before Boone could say more...)
