Character Connections w/Theory Speculation - Lost-Forum.com

LOST_arbiter · 06-19-2005, 09:20 AM

This list now located here. Thanks.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not taking credit for finding, collecting, or thinking of all of these.

THIS POST IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Connections
Sun + Jin = married.

Michael + Walt = father and son.

Shannon + Boone = Shannon's father married Boone's mother so they are stepsiblings.

Jin + Hurley = Hurley is on TV for winning the lottery when Jin goes to 'talk' to the environmental secretary. It was filmed during the day, so it can't be a shot of when the TV reporters first find him at the gas station, that was at night.

Sayid + Hurley = Sayid served in the Republican Guard, Hurley's friend served in the 104th Airborne, both fought in the Gulf War.

Hurley + Locke #1= Hurley is the majority shareholder in a box company in Tustin, California. Locke worked as a regional collection supervisor at that box company.

Hurley + Locke #2= Hurley's manager at Mr. Cluck’s is Locke’s boss, Randy, at the box company. In case you don’t remember who I’m talking about, he is the guy that ridicules Locke for wanting to go on a walkabout. And Hurley and Johnny spell ‘CLUCK YOU’ in gnomes on his lawn. Plus, it’s kind of ironic if you think about it, because Hurley now owns Locke’s box company, so technically, Randy is working for Hurley now.

Locke + Hurley #3= Locke's mom was put in the same Californian psychiatric hospital, the Santa Rosa Mental Health Institute (SRMHI), as Hurley and his crazy friend Lenny.

Locke + Charlie = Locke is a fan of Driveshaft, Charlie's band. Locke has both of Charlie’s albums and his self-titled debut.

Kate + Charlie = Kate's friend Beth is a 'huge fan' of Driveshaft.

Charlie + Shannon = Charlie's shirt (in the episode 'the Moth') said "St. Tropez" which is where Shannon said she lived in France. Charlie was probably on tour there. (link)

Shannon + Danielle Rousseau = Danielle had the lyrics to "La Mer" written down for some reason, and Shannon knew the song when she was in Saint Tropez with 'this guy' who had a kid, Laurent, who watched 'the cartoon about fish, you know, one of the computer ones?' over and over again. "La Mer" was one of the songs on the movie. Shannon was probably the guy's au pair, or nanny. (link to the lyrics of "La Mer")

Danielle Rousseau + Hurley + 4*8*15*16*23*42 + Everyone = While out at sea, Danielle's team picked up a transmission repeating the numbers, which led them to shipwreck on the island. Lenny and his friend Sam Toomey(sp?) heard the numbers at a listening post in the Pacific Ocean. Hurley used them to win the lottery and they 'cursed' him. Almost all the survivors have had connections to one or more of the numbers.

Boone + Sawyer = Sawyer is in the Australian police station when Boone is there looking for help.

Sawyer + Jack = Sawyer met Jack's dad, Christian, in a bar in Sydney.

Kate + Walt = When Kate goes to pick up the letter about her mom (in episode 'Born to Run'), the clerk is playing on a GameBoy Advance SP. They come in different colors, but it was silver just like the one Walt was playing on (in episode 'Exodus'). (link)

Sawyer + Hurley = The lotto-girl, Mary-Jo, that announced Hurley's numbers is the same girl that Sawyer was with when Hibbs suprised him in his hotel room.

Shannon + Jack~Sarah = Sarah, Jack’s wife-to-be, was in a car crash with Shannon's dad, Adam. Jack was called to the ER but he didn’t save Mr. Rutherford, he instead helped Sarah, so he died on the operating table. It is strange though, because they were both supposedly hit by 'an SUV.' (link to the conversations)

Taken from Sledgeweb’s Lost ... Stuff (because I liked how they said it):
Jack + Desmond = Desmond and Jack met late one night running steps at a stadium. Desmond encouraged Jack to "change his angle" and made him think about the possibility of Sarah being able to walk again.

Dogs = There are a few threads about dogs. There are five different instances of dogs on Lost so far:

We have our Yellow Labrador Retriever, Vincent, of course.
Locke picks up a flyer about a lost dog. (here or here)
Locke's foster mom's Golden Retriever.
The Shar Pei dog that Jin gives to Sun that he took from the environmental secretary. Its name is/was 'Po Po,' which in Korean means, 'a kiss.'
Hurley had a dog as a kid. Its name was Buster.

(link to Locke's and Hurley's stories about the dogs)

Theories (not all are mine, the *’s are mine)
Locke + Jack or Boone = Jack or Boone could have been the little boy in the "Mousetrap" scene in DEM.

Boone + Jack = Jack could have been getting married to Sarah through Boone's mother's bridal company. ( link and link)

Boone + Anyone = Actually, Boone could possibly be connected to any of these people by way of his mother's bridal company: *

Bryan Porter and Walt's mom, Susan.
Kate and whomever she married.
Charlie's brother Liam and his wife, Karen.
Anyone else that has gotten married.

Danielle + Kate = Danielle's team member Montand could be Kate's buddy Ray from Australia. Montand lost his arm and Ray has a prosthetic arm (in Tabula Rasa). Also, Dr. Marvin Candle from the DHARMA Swan film has a prosthetic arm. ( link )

Kate + Hurley #1 = Ray the farmer (see above post) could have known Sam Toomey before Sam killed himself. Both of them are older Australians. *

Kate + Hurley #2 = When Kate goes to the post-office (in episode 'Born to Run'), the clerk pulls her letter out of a shoe box with the brand name, Brown Shoe. This company could be Hurley's shoe factory that burnt down in Canada. ( link ) *

Hurley + Ethan = If Ethan was off the island and in Ontario, Canada one year before the crash he could have owned a pair of shoes from Hurley's shoe company (see above theory).( link )

Sawyer + Walt = In the conversation between Walt's mom, Susan, and her husband, Brian Porter, Susan mentions something about an immigration problem and that she is a lawyer (link to this conversation). Maybe her client was none other than Sawyer. He was in Australia and was arrested for reasons we don't yet know. (link)

Jack + Kate #1 = Jack and Tom Brennan (Kate's childhood friend/ 'lover') are/were both doctors, so its possible that they may have gone to the same medical school and/or worked with each other sometime in the past. (link)

Jack + Kate #3 = Kate told Charlie that she has a friend named Beth who loves Driveshaft. Jack tried to save a woman who died in the Operating Room because of Christian Shepard (Jack's dad). Jack called the woman Beth, so she is in all likelihood the same Beth that is Kate's friend. (link)

Kate + Jack #4 = Remember that guy at the beginning of 'Born to Run'? The guy that walked out of the hotel with some luggage and the two kids fighting? He kind of looks like the guy that Christian Shepard was talking to about his pregnant wife's death (could be Beth, read above theory). If that theory and this one turn out to be true, then that would mean that Beth was giving birth to her third child. (link) *

Locke + Sawyer = Locke's dad, Mr. Cooper, could be the original Sawyer. He asks Locke, “Do you think you're the first person that ever got conned?” The original Sawyer that caused the death of our Sawyer’s parents was obviously a con man. Locke dad could be about the right age.

Taken from Sledgeweb’s Lost ... Stuff:
Claire + Unknown Passenger = "Did another plane passenger visit the same psychic? Does this explain how psychic knew of plane crash? From a previous reading?"(link)

Kate + Michael + Locke + Jin~Sun = The car that Kate & Tom hit is the same one that hit Michael and the same one that backed into Locke when he was chasing his mom. Could this be the kind of car that Mr. Paik, Sun's father, sells?
(tipntop says that the car is a Pontiac Bonneville SE in this post/ it looks the same as pictures from Google)

Shoes + Everyone = There have been a few threads about the shoes in Lost. Some people think there is some special significance to the character's shoes. (link)

Sayid + Hurley = As stated toward's the top of the list, Hurley had a buddy that served in the 104th Airborne and Sayid served in the Republican Guard during the Gulf War. In the episode "Everyone Hates Hugo," we are introduced to two of Hurley's friends (or possibly ex-friends), Starla and Johnny. Either of them could be the buddy that was in the 104th Airborne. But if I had to, I would put more money on Starla than Johnny. *

Jack + Claire = Could they be siblings? Go read these posts bybuffyfan145 and liquorcart for more > (link, link, & link)

At the Airport & Hotel
Sayid + Shannon = Sayid asked Shannon to watch his bags and later she turned him in for leaving unattended luggage.

Charlie + Hurley = Hurley tried to get on the hotel elevator but it was full. Charlie was on riding the elevator. "Some of us have a bloody flight to make!"

Hurley + Arzt = Hurley tried to cut in line two people ahead of Leslie.

Jack + Jin = In Jack's first episode, you see Jin standing in line behind Jack, and vice versa for Jin's episode.

Michael + Locke = While Michael is talking to his mom on the phone, Locke is wheeled by behind him.

Jack + Ana Lucia = Jack met Ana at an airport bar before the flight. She flirted with him, asked Jack about his dad and if he's married. They agreed to meet on the plane for a drink, but that didn't happen. (link to their conversation)

Interactions on the Plane
Claire + Arzt = Arzt helped Claire with her luggage.

Jack + Locke = Exchanged quick, friendly grins.

Hurley + Walt = Hurley gave Walt a thumbs-up and Walt smiled at him.

Walt + Michael = Walt and Michael sat next to each other.

Kate + the Marshall = Kate was sitting next to the marshal (Edward Mars) as a prisoner. She essentially saved his life by putting on his oxygen mask for him after he is knocked unconscious.

Jack + Rose = Jack sat across the row from Rose and comforted her because she was nervous without her husband, Bernard, who was in the bathroom.

Shannon + Boone = Being siblings, they sat next to each other.

Charlie + Jack~Rose + Shannon~Boone = Charlie squeezed past both pairs on his escape from Cindy and some of the male flight attendants.

Jack + Cindy = Cindy gives Jack two bottles of liquor.

Ana Lucia + the Marshall = THEY WERE BOTH HIT IN THE HEAD BY SUITCASES.

Claire + the Pilot = COFFEE

Repeated Phrases
Shannon + Walt + Locke = All three had someone say that they are special. Boone about Shannon, Brian (Walt's adoptive father) about Walt, Emily (Locke's mother) about Locke.

Hurley + Kate = They both said that they put their family through a lot (link to these conversations)

Rose + Boone = "I'm letting you off the hook." Rose to Jack. Boone to Jack. Also, see the first section of this post. Locke says that his foster mother's dog let her off the hook.

Locke + Jack = Both yelled, "Don't tell me what I can't do!!!" Locke about going on the walkabout, going after the boar by himself, and opening the hatch. Jack about cutting off Boone's leg.

Hurley + Diego~Charlie = Hurley said, "Ignore him, he's an idiot." twice. (link to these conversations)

Charlie + Charlie = In Charlie's flashback, the bar-junkie gave up on trying to get the drugs from Charlie and said "You're pathetic." Back to the island, when Charlie & Sayid found Danielle, Charlie said "You're pathetic." to Danielle. (word for word from link)

Christian Shepard + Sayid~Essam = All three people mentioned, "the greater good." (link to these conversations)

Sun + Boone = Sun asked Jin, "Whose blood is this?" (it was the environmental secretary's). Boone asked Sayid, "Whose blood is that?" (it was Sawyer's).

Sayid + Kate = In 'White Rabbit', Sawyer calls Kate 'Sheriff' and throws her a badge. In the next episode, 'House of the Rising Sun', Michael calls Sayid 'Sheriff'. Later, in 'Outlaws', when Sawyer gives Jack the gun back, he calls Jack, Sheriff.

Jin + Kate + Shannon = Sun and Jack said things about not knowing what Jin and Kate are capable of. Shannon tells Boone that he doesn't know what she's capable of. (link to these conversations)

Sayid + Desmond = Both said things about 'a future life' so to speak. Nadia wrote "You'll find me in the next life if not in this one." on the back of her photograph before giving it to Sayid. As Desmond left Jack in the stadium, he said to Jack, "See you in another life, yeah?"

Hurley + Sawyer = People must think Korean men like to pee on people. Hurley to Jin when he stepped on a sea urchin. (link to these conversations)

Boone & Locke: Let me go, Jack.

Jin & Jack: Save you.
Fix you?

Locke: We all get new lives on this island, Shannon, maybe its time you start yours. (IT?)
Jack: We all died 3 days ago. http://lost-forum.com/showthread.php...light=pathetic (Pilot2 or TR)

http://www.lost-forum.com/showthread...178#post507178

Hurley Johnny Driveshaft

Not doing it for him. Eko/Jack Sawyer

Where is she?

trust issues (TR)

Proven False
Jack + Kate #2 = There is a theory that Kate could have been adopted was adopted. The adopted theory makes sense, Kate's letter said "Love, *someone* " (link to thread about the letter). Sarah (Jack's 'wife', we don't know if they got married yet) could have been an adopted sister that was assisting Kate on the run. The reason Sarah's car flipped over could have been because she was helping Kate get away. Sarah did say that she was hit by an SUV. The Marshal was driving an SUV in 'Tabula Rasa', so maybe that's the type of vehicle he drives. (link)

Ana Lucia + Kate = There is a theory that Ana was a second marshal. They suggest that the call she took at the airport was from Kate’s marshal, Edward Mars, saying that he was in the airport with the "prisoner". To support this theory, isn’t it kind of ironic that Ana was hit in the head by a suitcase the same way Kate’s marshal was knocked out? (link)

Ana Lucia + Sayid = Like the above theory, it has been suggested that Ana Lucia could have been working for the CIA. Remember that the CIA used Sayid in Australia, so she could have been assigned to keep an eye on him until he got to America. ( link)

*I know those conversation links have a lot more than just the sentence the phrase is spoken in, but I did that so people could see the context it was used in.*

999Chris · 06-19-2005, 04:56 PM

Keeping on with the whole Shoe thing... Kate steals a pair of shoes from one of the fallen passengers on part 1 of the pilot... Locke gives her a "look" not sure why, maybe he wanted them... heh.
Yes, anyway, just pointing that out.

LadyKnight · 06-19-2005, 10:14 PM

Wow. This is awesome.

tallie · 06-19-2005, 10:26 PM

He asked her to watch her bags. Unless we're doing what happened before the airpor

LOST_arbiter · 06-19-2005, 11:14 PM

Ok, I added 'At the Airport & Hotel'. I can't think of any more, but I think there are others.

Edit: Also added 'Interactions on the Plane'. Again, I think there are more, just feel free to post and I'll add them.

Shawna · 06-20-2005, 05:56 AM

All matches.. But is that all of the theories?

LOST_arbiter · 06-20-2005, 07:38 AM

J-Abrams, I know it's on other sites, but I combined all of them and added 'Connection Theories' and stuff. And not to brag but I think my is the longest one.

In the first post I'll add the links I used. ;p

Welcome Shawna!

I don't know if it is all the connection theories out there, that is why I asked for help. If you have a good one, feel free to post and I'll add it on.
