why is this ep marked as a libby flashback?

edit

its clearly a hurley one, just because she appears in it dosent mean its hers.. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.167.237.102 (talk) 13:49, 17 February 2007 (UTC).Reply

Why This Was Also a Libby Flashback

edit

If you notice, each episode's flashback is only seen from the character's point of view and/or memory. Example, Shannon Rutherford in 'Abandoned'. All of the flashback sequences in the episode belonged to Shannon. Each of them was referred to from Shannon's point of view and memory. In the final scene of Dave, it is shown from Libby's point of view and HER memory. Not Hurley. Hurley did not see that Libby was observing him, which means it was not in his memory. It was in Libby's and although it was only like 10 seconds, this episode was still a Libby flashback episode, although mainly served as Hurley's.

What about evidence that Libby is misleading Hurley?

edit

After kissing Hurley, doesn't Libby turn away and make a sour face, like she really didn't want to kiss him? I thought that there was a series of hints that Libby was misleading Hurley, including but not limited to Libby's presence in the mental hospital. I don't have this episode to refer to, but it seems to me that something was foreshadowed here that isn't being reported in either the episode recap or in the article on Libby.

--you are correct that she did give a look; but this does not mean that your reasoning is correct. There could have been any number of reasons for a "sour face", e.g. it could have been that the actor was tired from keeping an alternative expression while filming to name one. Since this is not expressely mentioned in the show, nor the commentary of the show, I don't see much need of mentioning this in the article. As for "foreshadowing"; lost has a way of "foreshadowing", but "twisting" that which was forshadowed. This creates the intense nature of the Drama necessary to retain the audience for a show of its nature. 208.119.72.6 (talk) 19:53, 18 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I look forward to reviewing this article :) Regards, Lord Roem (talk) 03:55, 1 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Maybe wikilink 'fan theory' or put a cite to that? I think it qualifies for a lead cite. Lord Roem (talk) 04:03, 1 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

"Fan theory" doesn't exist as an article, but you suggest any alternatives?
Nah, its fine.

Review

edit

Lead

  • What is 'realtime'?
    • Other articles use it, but rewritten.
  • What way where they filmed? A bit unclear.
    • Rewritten, see if it's good enough.

Flashback

  • "the room: Libby". Change the sentence to exclude that colon.
    • Done.

On the island

  • Wikilink comatose
    • Done.
  • "calls the hatch a 'joke': he says..." this colon also seems out of place - rework the sentence as well to make it more clear.
    • Rewritten.
  • Wikilink 108 to a past episode?
    • Removed.
  • "Locke, however, replies angrily that Henry is lying." - why does he say that?
    • He doesn't believe and replies to that with "You're lying.". Thinks it needs a rewrite?
      • It just seems a bit sudden. If there is no context/understandable reason from this episode, its fine.

Production

  • Put the info on the final scene with Libby in the mental ward into the plot section.
    • Sorry? The plot section is only for in-universe events, why put production stuff into it?
      • Oh sorry. I got myself confused. :-/.
  • "Director Bender...in a way audiences would first believe him to be real..." - add an in-line cite here.
    • The first two sentences are covered by the same ref, but added a duplicate just in case.
  • Some of this last paragraph is a bit extraneous. For example, change "Weather problems...waves...rain" and remove the specific examples which aren't relevant.
    • Removed detail on what is from each day of shooting in the cliff, needs more?

Reception

  • Ryan j. Budke - is his middle initial really lower case?
  • Why did the LAT say it was misunderstood? Add a sentence or two on that.

Final Thoughts
