"LOST" - Another Look At Past Episodes

After watching some past episodes, a few things jumped out at me that didn't really stand out so much at the time... but after last week's episode, they strike a whole new chord.

Season 3, Episode 8: Flashes Before Your Eyes

After Desmond blows the hatch and temporarily goes back in time...

Charles Widmore says to Desmond, when he asks for Penny's hand, "You will never be a great man."

Eloise Hawking was in the store showing Desmond the ring, but she wouldn't let him buy it. According to her, he wasn't supposed to, Desmond David Hume. Then she proceeded to tell him his life story leading to the island. She tells him, "Pushing that button is the only truly great thing you'll ever do."


Season 3, Episode 9: Stranger In A Strange Land

In Jack's flashback there's this Asian chick, and her gift is to see who people are and mark them. She tells Jack, "You are a leader, a great man."

Isabelle (an Other) tells him his mark (tattoos) read: He walks amongst us, but he is not one of us. Jack tells Isabelle, "That's what they say, it's not what they mean."
