So basically -- it's what Vaughn said -- they're not gonna talk about it, but it's still in continuity.
Marco: Do we look reasonable to you? Mal: Well. Looks can be deceiving. Jayne: Not as deceiving as a low down dirty... deceiver.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Yeah. It's not a literal reset, just a "JJ, we need new viewers" kind of thing, like they did in the middle of S1.
This, re Lost ep 13:
This appears to be a Boone/Shannon-centric episode, told from Shannon's POV
Is also incorrect. (It's Boone's POV. Shannon's will come later.)

Jessica,
cool. thanks for the corrections. It's okay that you can't say more. What little tidbits I can get are fine with me.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I have a feeling that that slash between Boone's and Shannon's names isn't so much to indicate they share a point of view in the episode...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I've been skimming some. Do we know yet what Shannon and Boone's secret is?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Well, all arrows point toward them having a romantic/sexual relationship.
Whether this means they are brother or sister is not known.

Their big secret? Their real last name is "Brady".
And Boone used to be a pop star named "Johnny Bravo".

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Their real last name is Usher. Not as in, "the musical phenomenon(TM)", but as in Fall of the House of.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So his name is Boone Usher? Who names their kid that?

Ooh, ooh, I know! (And I have now been given permission to spoil at will, since the basics are already out there.)
Boone and Shannon are stepsiblings. Boone's been in love with Shannon since forever. He thinks he's been saving her from abusive relationships by paying the men to leave her, when in fact she's been faking abusive relationships in order to get money. This last time (in Sydney, natch), he figures it out, and Shannon ends up giving him a sympathy fuck in his hotel room the night before the flight.
Meanwhile on the island, Locke has figured out that Boone has an unhealthy obsession with his sister, and when Boone threatens to tell Shannon what they've found in the woods, Locke ties him up and sends him on a vision quest in which Shannon is killed by the monster (but not really), thus severing Boone's tie to Shannon and imprinting him even more solidly onto Locke.
