Yeah, but there aren't any kids (that they knew about) except Walt that survived. Thus, the original owner's dead, whether or not Locke saw the body.
Mal: Okay. She won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon. But she is solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die. Zoe: 'Cause it's a deathtrap.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Our wings are not tired.
I liked the kid shoe scene a lot. It was perfect Locke with a side of creepy.

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

Lots of people died. They used a lot of their stuff. Why is this instance a problem?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
It's also possible that the shoes came from the luggage of the two tail-ender kids. They're not dead, only kidnapped.

I'm looking forward to seeing Locke get challenged by Mr. Eko (I love calling him this, and will continue to use the honorific). Also would be interested in seeing if Charlie continues with his blind devotion to Locke--actually, am interested in anything that'll give Charlie more airtime, as long as it's something worth watching.

What is even happening?
I wasn't sorry to see Boone killed off as the first Survivor Who was Played by an Actor in the Opening Credits (Not Including the Pilot, who was Killed Off in the Pilot) or SWWPbaAitOC(NItPwwKOitP), for short.
What?And the most she will do
Is throw letters at you
But she's always a Bronzer to me
Hey, I liked Shannon well enough. I think the actress was OK and the character was starting to get interesting. I supposed sex with Sayid will do that for a girl. As for Boone, I pretty much agree, because the actor creeped me out. But the character -- as a lackey for Locke -- would have been interesting if the passengers become antagonistic toward each other.This is true. The character was interesting, and although the step-cest squicked me out, it would have added another layer of conflict, if Locke hadn't drugged it out of him.

Yes, but Locke didn't know that, particularly then. Days after a horrific accident that killed (as far as the original Losties know) a number of people on their flight, using a child's shoe (which clearly wasn't Walt's extra shoe) as a shovel, was just creepy.

This. What Laura said. I wasn't criticizing the scene. The creepiness of it added a cool level of characterization.

Yea, that's when I really got the sense that Locke was shaping Boone to be a minion -- stripping Boone of all of his defenses, learning all of his secrets. Which was nice and creepy. But then, Dead Boone.

I haven't actually seen where Boone dies. I don't know if I missed it this season, when I was watching Veronica Mars, or have I not just gotten that far in season 1?

It didn't strike me as creepy so much as it did pragmatic improviser.
Why not use a kid's shoe if it's the right size for what you're doing? Would an adult shoe (not his) be creepy too?

He dies in Season 1. Locke has Boone do something dangerous -- cliimb a tree to look at a small plane that crashed there -- and Boone gets fatally hurt when the plane falls. Locke doesn't climb the tree himself because all of the sudden his legs seem to fail him. So, basically, Locke ignores the island warning him not to go up the tree (there were dreams earlier too) and gets Boone killed.
It was all very dramatic. Or boring. Or both.
