S3E12 "Par Avion" - Addendum Notes/Caps
- the opening shot is a closeup of Claire's left eye, and when Claire awakens on the Island, the shot we see is of Claire's right eye. I wonder if this was to show the two sides of Claire....
- the interactions between Locke and Mikhail in this episode were very odd. For example, as Locke says to Sayid "How come you didn't warn me the basement was lined with C4?", Mikhail just smirks, like he knows that Locke did more than just Enter 77 or something.
- Locke and Rousseau are all about killing Mikhail, while Sayid and Kate want to keep him alive. We all can feel that there is more to Rousseau than she's admited to, and now I'm really getting the same kind of vibe from Locke, but not in the same way that I don't trust Danielle.
- sounds to me like Claire crashed her car intentionally. Officer Barnes says to Claire "I spoke with the truck driver, he's fine by the way; he said that when you hit him" and immediately Claire interrupts and says the trucker hit her.
- Kate to Rousseau "Can I ask you something?" - here I was hoping it was gonna be a good question and we would get more info out of her, but it was not. Wasted opportunity. But I forgive em cause they've gotten a bunch of other good answers recently and they seem like they're actually getting smarter!
- if he was recruited at age 24 to the Island, then Mikhail must've had some experience going to and from the Island if he has a memory of Locke in the wheelchair.
- another oddity between Locke and Mikhail - when Kate asks "What list?", Mikhail glances at Locke as if in acknowledgement of him being on the List. Ben has said that Locke was one of the "good ones" so perhaps John Locke is on "The List" (or Ben was just lying again).
- Locke's motivation to finally kill Mikhail was his admitting that he knew Locke was paralyzed before arriving on the Island. Locke seems to want this kept a secret at all costs for some reason. I've seen discussions on who else knows about Locke, and the only two people are Walt and Rose; Walt is "escaping" with Michael, and Rose hasn't been seen all season.
- I know there are better ones out there, but here are some caps of Sayid's new map - and judging from the size of it, we should be able to see the flame station (they said it was on there, right?) - but I can't see it anywhere....:
- see? watching LOST can make your brains drip out your ears!!
- either Andrew Divoff (the actor playing Mikhail) has cauliflower ear or I can see the blood pouch on his ear after he falls and dies.
- Christian to Claire "I gave you toys, I sang to you" so even though she doesn't remember his face, she remembers him singing "Catch a falling star" to him. I saw it mentioned that it would be a really neat way to connect Jack and Claire by having Claire sing "catch a falling star" and Jack recognizes it. That would be very cool.
- I don't know if this is the same location as Kelvin's death, but this is a nice shot of Desmond walking out to get the bird on the rocks:
- here's a nice shot of Charlie and Claire on the beach before releasing the bird:
- followed by another great shot of Claire letting the bird go:
- I'd like to close with two funny caps of the newly revealed half brother and sister. I call them both "DURRRRR!!":
That's all I have for now.
I can't freakin WAIT until next week. :)
Enjoy!

S3E12 "Par Avion"
Some first round notes:
- Nice eyeshot to open.
- Mapmapmapmapmapmap!!! :) I can't wait to get a HiRes cap of that Map!!
- Mikhail was recruited at age 24 by a MAN. NOT an ad like he said.
- as soon as Kate asks "what list?", Mikhail looks right at Locke. Later, they try to decieve us as he rattles off the reasons why they are not on the "list" and looking at each of them as he says a reason. The traits he mentioned didn't really fit the person he looked at, he was just saying things and looking around. There is something about Locke...
- A Magnificent Man, NOT Ben. ALVAR HANSO. :D
- that was a very cool semi-panoramic shot of the electrofence
- so I assume that was Claire's aunt's house that Christian went bangin on with Ana Lucia last season....
- whoops....Locke killed Mikhail. At least they got *some* answers from him before he died.
- oooh, BIG shocker - Christian is Claire's father. I even did the "Darth Vader" breathing as I prepared for him to say "the line".
- BONDI BEACH was seen on the diaper towel. Any reason they would use this?
- who was it that Claire said sung to her as a child, who sung her "Catch a falling star"? I think she said it was her father. It was in S1 in "Raised by Another" that she said it to the potential adoptive parents. I'll check the transcripts.
- Sawyer was reading an Ayn Rand book, but I couldn't see which one. (Later confirmed as "Fountainhead")
- nice shot of the birds being released. I'll have a cap in my addendum post.
- so Jack has joined the Others now? Just cause he's playing football with Tom? For all we know, he could be playin them still, trying to get as much info as he can to use against them somehow. I guess we shall see....
Next week looks like its gonna be one of "THOSE" episodes.

S3E11 "Enter 77" - Addendum Notes/Caps
Lets dive right in...
- "Dude, all I know is the sky turned purple, after that I don't ask questions. Just make myself a salad and move on" - what a great line!
- The Flame station has a series of loudspeakers around it like the Hydra:
- "I have never been here before" says Danielle. She also said something very similar when shown the Swan Hatch. I just do not believe her. 16 years on the Island (with a map) and she's never seen any of the Others/Dharma facilities. Yeah right. See HERE.
- The restaurant Sayid was working at in the first FB was called "Le Portail D'Arabie" which means "The Gate of Arabia" in French.
- unlike the Swan, the supplies seen at The Flame are NOT labeled with the Flame logo, rather the one we saw on the Dharma Shark:
- and also here, on the first aid kit, we can make out (I know its blurry) the logo for The Staff:
- Mikhail says that DHARMA initiated the war/Purge against the "hostiles" - after it was over 4 men appeared and offered a truce. I wonder who those 4 men were? Ben, Tom, Jacob, and ?? (Pickett??)
- with this shot here, we can place Sayid in Paris (see the Eiffel Tower in the background):
- Nadia Komanich (sp?) Russian gymnast, shares a birthday with Mikhail. What is this birthday??
- now we have 4 different DHARMA logos seen in The Flame - The Flame, The "Shark logo", The Staff, and now the Swan, seen here on the Vodka bottle:
- I just have to say again how happy I am that Sayid was asking all kindsa good questions of Mikhail. "What is the Dharma Initiative?" "What is the purpose of the flame?" "Are there any cables going out into the ocean" "How did you get here?" "So there are submarines?" and he got some good answers to all of those questions (for the most part).
- there are boxes in the basement of the Flame that bear new numbers:
- also, the Food Drop Protocol and Operations Manual offered another new series of DHARMA related numbers:
- MANUAL OVERRIDE ACHIEVED - For Pallat Drop, enter 24; for Station Uplink, enter 32, for Mainland Communication, enter 38. The satellite dish is inoperable. Communications are down. For Sonar Access, enter 56. Sonar is inoperable. Has there been an incursion on this station by the Hostiles? If so, enter 77.
- it looks like after he shot Miss Klugh, Mikhail was going to turn the gun on himself, but Locke stopped him.
- a little comment on the magazines that Hurley gave back to Sawyer - the "Nun turned Stripper" must've been a huge story in 1990 cause "Playpen" magazine featured the story in two issues!! :P
- "I lied about being a member, everything else I said is true. I moved into this station after the Purge". I would like to know exactly when this PURGE took place, and is it in any way related to the INCIDENT, and if so, HOW?
- "that place was our one chance of communication with the outside world"....um....no it's not, Sayid. You yourself reminded Danielle about the Radio Tower, and inquired if the one at the Flame was what she was talkin about. To which she said it was not the same tower. Now, I realize that her distress call has been playing on a loop for 16 years and gone unanswered, but they have Sayid who might know how to tweak some stuff to get the signal from the tower to change (somehow) - if they ever find the thing.
- and I'd like to close with THE FLAME in Flames:
That's all I have for now. Til next week. ;)
Enjoy! :)

- The Flame is the Dharmatel Hub (well, was)

Discuss on.

S3E10 "Tricia Tanaka is Dead" Addendum Notes/Caps
Well, I didn't end up takin that many addendum notes, but I did make some caps that I'd like to share. Here ya go:
One of the first shots gave me the feel of S1, even though it was insignificant - the license plate on the Camaro:
When Hurley's father rides away on his motorcycle, you can see the crappy attempt to conceal the fact that he's riding a YAMAHA motorcycle (so TPTB didn't have to pay royalties, they cut off the Y and last A):
Here's the best I could do with the candy bar we see Hurley eat, and I don't see a Polar Bear, and it's not an Apollo Bar. It's something like "G _ _ _ _ D Bar" I have no clue what it really says:
One of three excellent shots from the cinematography dept. in this episode is after Hurley places the flower at Libby's grave:
Well, it looks like the key to the Dharma Van doesn't have the infamous Dharma logo on it, it's just a plain old key:
This sequence here was just AWESOME, and it's one I won't forget anytime soon - of course, I'm referring to the Meteor hitting Mr.Clucks:
The second of three fantastic shots was Charlie sitting on the beach "moping" before Hurley came to get him:
And the third awesome shot was when Sawyer got back to his tent with his stash of Dharma Beer:
That's all I have for now. :)
Can't wait til next week!!
Discuss on.

S3E10 "Tricia Tanaka is Dead"
Good stuff there :)
Some first watch notes:
- the candy bar given to Hurley in the first FB was NOT an Apollo bar :p
- there was a very nice shot of Hurley at Libby's grave that went perfectly with the music.
- Randy NATION - well, we have a last name for him now. Is it a little nod to script coordinator Gregg Nations?
- oh NO!! Johnny ran off with Starla!! Poor Hurley!!
- HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! I almost died laughing when I realized why I thought the name TRICIA TANAKA sounded familiar - from "Family Guy" Asian reporter TRICIA TAKANAWA - funny how TRICIA TANAKA was also an Asian Reporter!! ROTFL!!
- Okay, that Metoer hittin Mr. Clucks rivaled the tail section crashing!! That was FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!
- DHARMA BEER!!!! I WANT SOME!!!!!
- "Snuffy" hehehe, Sawyer calls Hurley (in reference to Mr. Snuffalupagus ) and then "looks like somebody's hooked on phoenics" - whoever they have writing for Sawyer now is doing a fantastic job
- I want a cap of that Blueprint that Sawyer looked at and said it was just a "dirt road" - I get the feeling its more than that.
- another nice shot seen of Charlie sittin on the beach (will have cap later)
- YAY!!! I'm so happy Kate was smart like I had hoped and pieced together that the ALEX that helped her was also the ALEX that was Rousseau's daughter!!!
And now it looks like business is about to pick up significantly too.
Discuss on.
Peace,
