In the new TV Guide a "what's up next" spoiler for Claire on
Lost
...
The article says
"Thanks to amnesia, she won't remember anything that's happened on the island."
I'm not sure if this is a good thing or just a cop-out. They already did the
amnesia bit with Charlie not remembering anything that happened when he and Claire were taken by Ethan and possibly others.
At least we know that
Claire is still pregnant at the end of "Special" and that Ethan hasn't got her baby.
I'm wondering, though, how
Claire found her way back to camp. I'm assuming she was taken pretty far considering no one could find her. It's not as if there are streetlights and she was walking through the jungle in the middle of the night
.
Maybe the
amnesia
is consistent.
Due to Walt's apparent ability on the island, I suppose it's possible that any contact with
Ethan's group, assuming there are others on the island, would cause the crash survivors to lose some memory.
Charlie couldn't remember what happened after he and Claire encountered Ethan and Claire was
with Ethan longer. She might have even been dragged off to the "black rock" and who knows what kind of mystic powers that place might have - it might be the cause of her not remembering anything in her whole time on the island.
Bugger. I hate
amnesia
storylines. This is just a way
to add dramatic tension by making her forget her blooming feelings for Charlie,
I bet.
In the case of Charlie, we can chalk it up to
brain damage secondary to being briefly dead. That kind of memory loss actually makes sense, as long as it doesn't all come back to him suddenly, at a dramatic moment.
I don't know how they're going to avoid the eye-roller when dealing with Claire.

Well maybe
there's a connection between Ben and Glory
?
I'm convinced that Claire's amnesia is related to whatever stress she's been under. I hope her memory comes back but she was having vivid nightmares and was a little frantic before the kidnapping so this may have all come together as a serious mental breakdown.
So, Frank, you're saying
Ethan is subletting from Danielle?
Are you all
very, very stoned?
fighting not to read the whitefont...in my head I just ended Anne's non-whitefonted part
Are you all
