In last week’s official LOST Podcast, EPs Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse attempted to explain Charlotte’s age discrepancy (according to Ben, she was born in 1979, but we saw her alive in 1974) by claiming that Rebecca Mader asked to change her age in an earlier script.

Yesterday, Rebecca fired back on her MySpace Channel:

Pissed
I just wanted to say that I NEVER changed my age on the set of LOST as Damon and Carlton accused me of on the most recent LOST podcast.
Charlotte Lewis was ALWAYS meant to be 28 and born in 1979.
It was written in the script EP # 402 of which I have a copy and I can prove this!
They made a mistake.
They are making it MY fault.
NOT COOL.

Reached for comment by Michael Ausiello last evening, Damon and Carlton now admit that they got their facts wrong:

Rebecca is absolutely right and we apologize to both her and the entire fan community for screwing up the story. By way of explanation, here’s what happened:

There were a gazillion questions about the timeline discrepancy in that young Charlotte clearly exists in 1974, but wasn’t supposed to be born until 1979, per a single line of dialogue courtesy of Ben back in episode #402. When we inquired as to how this happened, the intel came back that we used Rebecca Mader’s birthday, July 2, 1979 because she was actually eight years YOUNGER than the character as originally conceived/scripted. We misremembered this as having come from Rebecca herself on the set, but in fact, it came several days earlier when our continuity expert Gregg Nations pointed it out and suggested using Rebecca’s actual birthday for Charlotte. And so, the mistake was OURS. Rebecca’s production draft DID have the date as being 1979.

Our first mistake was the timeline gaffe, but the much more significant one was wrapping Rebecca up in this when she had nothing to do with it. Not her fault on any level. It was our bad. One hundred percent. We will say as much in a very special “Eating Crow” edition of our Podcast tomorrow. Speaking of which, what a wonderful world we live in where we can make a comment in a Podcast that triggers a response on someone’s Facebook page and that triggers a mea culpa on someone else’s blog. Ah, technology.”
