Dammit, I was interrupted and missed a 10 minute chunk after Eko climbed the tree, but my friend filled me in...time to watch it again tomorrow!

From Wikipedia:

"The term heir apparent is most often used to refer to someone who is first in the order of succession to a throne and who cannot lose this status by the birth of any other person. It is also used less formally to indicate someone who is an apparent successor to a non-royal position of power, e.g., a political or corporate leader."

Click on Dr. Thomas and there will be a random text box in the middle of his bio. I guess this is where you type in heir apparent, but there's no submit option.

I'm a bit lost with this episode. The TV room was a monitoring station that was also being monitored, as evidenced by the camera trained on the observation chairs. As in watch the watchers?

We are to understabnd that the whole entering the code was a experiement. That pearl station was clearly abandoned some time ago, and yet Desmond was still continuing the experiment in that hatch. We know that the hatch has been modernized (new front-loading washing machine), which implies that some agency is still actively overseeing the experiment. Doesn't compute. Seems like every new episode shatters even the best crafted grand theories.

In the Pearl hatch, there was a cigarette or something put out on the tray table. How old did that look? It looked semi-fresh to me, is there another way into that hatch? And yeah there was a camera in that hatch too, so that's interesting

BTW, Locke putting that map in the air tube is informing someone? That's what I want to see next, where the tube line ends (are the dharma people still sitting in some room waiting?).

I don't think the point is to login to anything, I think it's just to make the text say "Alvar Hanso's right hand and heir apparent.

Hmm...

I'm starting to think this is all just pointless viral marketing and doesn't really have much, if anything to do with the plot development of the show.

my fiance made a great observation tonight abou the Pearl room..

when Locke turn on the tvs, only 1 tv camera was on, which was the survivors hatch that desmond was in that the others did not find.. her belief is that the "others" were the social rats being part of this experiment and they somehow revolted against the scientist when they found out their "experiment'.. the others killed the real docts and destroyed the cameras that were video tapping their progress. They did not find the hatch that desmond was in since he had locked himself in pretty well and being under 10ft of dirt helped too..


onto another subject, the Hanso foundation caught me by surprised as i turned away and barely saw the end of the ad until i realize it was a fake-ad for the tv show lost.. :thumbsup: nice touch! Well clicking around, I wanted to sign up for their newsletter and a, but i typed in my "screen name" and found that someone by the name of persophne was taking back.. i could not figure out the password, so it gave this default mesaage that said "call the call center in the tv ad".. where is the number? saw the ad several times, but nothing..

Sorry, Kit.

Go to http://www.thehansofoundation.org/ click the Newsletter link. Put in any name for your screenname and hit next. When it says can you hear me, type "yes" and hit the enter button. The password they ask you for is "breaking strain" (got it from calling the number). Sit back, enjoy, and scratch your head.

You can also go to Joop's corner and "send Joop a message" (it can be anything).

Type in Heir Apparent and hit enter. More hmmm... fodder (a video) ensues. As

He told her he was sorry he forgot the blankets for their date. It was actually pretty emotional, I felt for the big guy.

My sister brought up the same point last night about the experiment and the others. especially since how did the others get the medicine and stuff.....especially since it seems they have psychotropic drugs(see the episode where claires from the medical hatch)
