Here’s the transcript of Rousseau’s team conversations in French. It’s probably not 100% correct, but I think it’s quite accurate.

Storm scene.

Robert: I told you! We should have never followed those damn numbers.
Montand: It’s not my fault, Robert. Brennan was the one in charge of the sonar.
Brennan: I was watching, Montand! I told you already, the instruments malfunctioned.
Rousseau: There’s a man in the water!
?: What?
?: I thought we were all here!
?: We are all here. He’s not one of us. So, who is he?
Robert: Paddle!
Montand: Paddle! Go!
?: Point the flashlight on him!
?: We must hold the light! Brennan, help us paddling!
?: Come on, hurry up! The stream is moving us!
?: No! It’s just him! There’s no boat, nothing!
?: Leave him! The waves will bring us to the coast.
Brennan: The wind will pass through here!
Female voice: For God’s sake, Brennan, shut up!
?: Come on, take him into the raft.
?: Help me!
?: He’s still breathing!

Beach scene.

Montand: Robert, look. The signal comes from the island!
Robert: Can you find the source?
Montand: Of course I can. Look.
Robert: Do you think the island is inhabited?
Rousseau: Are you OK? How are you feeling?
…
Robert: Who is he?
Montand: Who cares. What is he doing here?
Rousseau: He said he came by boat.
…
Rousseau: Montand, leave him alone! He’s in shock. Do we have water for him?
Robert: Yeah. Here.
Rousseau: Thanks, Robert.

Mary Ann Taheny, the Hawaii-based actress who played the role of Jenna (the Oceanic Airlines gate 23 attendant) back in Season One, reappeared on last night’s episode “Jughead” as a secretary at Oxford University.

According to ABC’s official press release for this episode, she was playing a different character, called Moira.

Thanks to Lost-A-Natic for the heads up!

In the last episode we saw Ms. Hawking using something similar to a Foucalut pendulum to determine the Island’s next location. Here’s a video of a real Foucalut pendulum in action at the Houston Museum of Natural Science:

• The Foucault pendulum was conceived as an experiment to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth. — Wikipedia.  Could the Island cause little variations on the Earth’s rotation every time it moves?

• The experimental apparatus consists of a tall pendulum free to oscillate in any vertical plane. The direction along which the pendulum swings rotates with time because of Earth’s daily rotation. – Wikipedia. Is this why Ms. Hawking uses the pendulum, because those little changes on the rotation are registered by her pendulum?
• In 1851 the French physicist Léon Foucault made his most famous pendulum when he suspended a 28-kg bob with a 67-metre wire from the dome of the Panthéon in Paris. This building was originally built as a church. Was Ms. Hawking in a church because she needed big space for the pendulum?

What’s your opinion about all this? What do you think will happen if the Oceanic 6 don’t return to the Island in the next 70 hours? Let us know, leave a comment!

We all know that many characters on the show are named after a famous person: John Locke, Faraday, Rousseau, David Hume, Mikhail Bakunin, C. S. Lewis and Hawkings are known philosophers, scientists, writers, etc. What I just found out is that Alpert is also named after someone popular: the real-life Dr. Richard Alpert, a noted psychologist and Hindu spiritualist.

Alpert (born April 6, 1931) was dismissed in 1963 from Harvard University for his research (in collaboration with Timothy Leary, Aldous Huxley, Allen Ginsberg and others) into psilocybin, LSD-25, and other psychedelic chemicals. Aldous Huxley wrote the book Island (read the previous entry on SL-LOST.com to learn how this book is connected to LOST).

He later traveled to India, where he was given his Hindu spiritual name “Ram Dass”, which translates as “Servant of God” (on LOST, Richard could be considered a servant of Jacob --don’t you think?).

Alpert wrote of his experiences in the 1971 bestseller Be Here Now, and founded the Hanuman Foundation, a corporation created to “promulgate spiritual well-being among members of the society as a whole through education and service, by spiritual training and by publications and recordings, and to promote the study, practice, and teaching of spiritual knowledge.”

On the video below you can see Alpert discuss the psychological implications of the LSD psychedelic experience.

Big thanks to our reader Max for the heads up!

The beach where the first episodes of the show were filmed is the Mokuleia Beach:

Did you know that the Lockheed L-1011 that was used to represent the wreckage of Oceanic 815 was stored behind that airfield near the beach? Yemi’s Beechcraft fuselage prop is stored in the same Dillingham Airfield.
