[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.
Cindy, I'm intriugued by the theory of Charles Widmore and [memfault woman with Heidi braids and gun] being siblings, and Heidi braids being Daniel's mother, making Daniel and Penny cousins.
I have to admit, the Widmore reveal left me gobsmacked in a way I didn't think this show could do any more.
Ellie - the British woman with the gun in the last episode, right?
Ellie
Thank you! My brain totally shorted out, even though I read Cindy's recap earlier in the day (which mentions Ellie's name).

Right? I think it had just been taken for granted that he was Dharma. This show really knows how to play the audience.

I wasn't assuming that, either. We saw that Widmore Industries had ties to Dharma, but I took that as him being a wily businessman, AND I thought that was how he heard of the island in the first place (i.e., does business with Dharma, eventually hears about this weird island, wants to find island in order to exploit it for gain).
I forget a lot of stuff about the show, though, so it's possible it was more strongly implied that he was Dharma and I forgot.
Oh yeah, map props to Cindy for catching the Ellie/Eloise connection (I didn't watch the enhanced version). Interesting also that Daniel named his lab rat after his mom...

I think it was strongly implied that Widmore had been on the Island at least once, that he was trying to find it again. If he were part of the Dharma Initiative, that would make sense. I never considered that he started out there to begin with!
Sayid rocks the house.
So glad he is back to being bad-ass action guy!
Aww, Sawyer misses Kate.
WTF was the column of light?
Locke answered your question, quester!
