She might be bitter enough to fatally poison it post-chomping, if Lostzilla is actually organic. Or maybe even if not...
Mal: Then I call it a win. What's the problem? Inara: Should I start with the part where you're stranded in the middle of nowhere, or the part where you have no clothes?
'Trash'
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR

Our wings are not tired.
I kinda like Ana. A no bullshit survivor chick. It was surprising to me that so many people wanted to see her as monster bait.
eta: She also has a whole lot more leadership skills than say Jack. Not that it takes much.

Now tagless for your comfort.

True. I think I have a problem with authority.
Also, did anyone ask the question why the back-end survivors took the time and manpower to build a JAIL pit? Seems to me that a hole that deep would have taken a lot of time and energy to dig. And what was the overwhelming need for it?

It may have been an existing trap that The Others built.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I like Ana, too. She could stand to lighten up a bit, but then, so could Jack.
I think the pit was in case they were able to capture one of the Others, they'd want a place to question them or hold a hostage. Or maybe the pit was already there, dug by one of Rousseau's crew way back when.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Maybe they caught boar in it. Maybe it was already there.
I'll bet digging a big hole would take less time than building the raft.

Hell, maybe Rousseau had another bolt-hole boobytrapped with century old dynamite and the tail section people just made use of the results.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Maybe if you consider tyranny to be leadership.

If "trust issues" lady was implying that people in her group got sick, maybe they threw them in the pit. Either that or they put their version of Ethan (does Cruise have any other working actor relatives?) into the pit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe if you consider tyranny to be leadership.
I don't think you can properly judge her leadership skills without seeing what shaped them. How she is might have been what it took to get even these few to where they are. Or it might have been why so few remain.
They haven't said.
