"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Me too. I don't think he'll make it back to civilization. At least, not with his Mother.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

i think there was a psychic before she got on the plane that tried to talk her into keeping him and not giving him up for adoption, as they couldn't be separated or he would be a very evil.
so i don't think she would leave him, but i also don't think they are going to leave the island.
i think sawyer and sayid will be #4 & 5 ...
perhaps micheal will be #6.

nadia is alive, as we saw her in a flashback with john locke before he got on the oceanic flight. he believes her to be dead, but she is not.
That's just it, Sayid was told by the agents that Nadia was ALIVE and he would be reunited with her if he cooperated by infiltrating that terrorist organization. That was BEFORE he came to the island yet once on the Island he told Rosseou that she was dead.

?????

So he believes her to be dead though he was told she was alive?

Also, what flashback of Locke's had Nadia in it and what scene?

i believe he thought they were lying to him to get him to co operate.. he still believes her to be dead.
i do not remember exactly what show, but it was during the time that locke had flashbacks of his father and the kidney ordeal, and somehow he was sent to a home (maybe he was door to door salesguy or something,, i cant recall exactly what) but nadia answered the door i believe.
what you like me to try to lostopedia it?

http://lostpedia.com/wiki/Nadia
After Iraq

Nadia's escape was successful, and later in Los Angeles she met and hired Locke to inspect a house she was buying. Through the few words they exchange, she revealed that she was not married. ("Lockdown")


Nadia is also seen in England being mugged in an alleyway. Charlie passes by and notices this happening. After a brief hesitation, he runs to her rescue. After the thug flees, Nadia thanks him and tells him that several other people noticed what was happening but just walked by. She tells Charlie that he is a hero and to not let anyone else tell him otherwise. Charlie later regards this as one of the best moments of his life. ("Greatest Hits")

Her current whereabouts were later used as a lure by the CIA to get Sayid to work for them. Eventually, they informed Sayid that Nadia is working in "Irvine, California" as "a lab tech in a medical testing company". ("The Greater Good")

Later on the Island, Sayid tells Rousseau that Nadia is dead because of him, although he never mentions the source of this information, how she died or how he had anything to do with her death. ("Solitary")
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I remember those scenes kitty but I don't remember that it was Nadia. My memory ain't what it used to be and I gotta get season's 2 & 3 on DVD.

Alright, so I'm going with my theory that Sayid will be one of the one's that gets off the Island so that we can see what happens with Nadia. But I agree, Claire has to be one of them as well.

Oceanic 6?

1. Jack
2. Kate
3. Hurley
4. Claire
5. Sayid
6. Person in box?

I'd say the 6th person is Sawyer. Remember at the end of Season 3 Jack meets up with Kate in the future. He wants to go back to the Island but Kate says "he is waiting for me" or something like that.... that has to be referring to Sawyer as clearly they are in love.

Or maybe "he" refers to Kate and Sawyer's love child, because I doubt the others left some condoms in the cage for Sawyer.

Wouldn't that be sweet?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Sayid! I knew it!

Okay Sayid is working for Ben. Ben isn't one of the Oceanic 6 as obviously he wasn't on the flight.

Looks like Sayid is trying to eliminate Ben's enemies (the people who rescue them?) to "save his friends".

Anyway, in Jack's flash-forward that very might well have been Ben in the coffin and that would explain both why no one showed up to the funeral and why Jack went there since he REALLY wants to get back to the Island.

This is the definite list of Oceanic 6 so far:

1. Jack
2. Kate
3. Hurley
4. Sayid
5. ?
6. ?

Also, when Daniel had the woman on the boat fire the 'payload' it didn't arrive on time. It took 31 minutes to get there. That might be a clue to the time displacement theory. And of course, it seems that every helicopter that comes to the Island crashes or nearly crashes...could there be a magnetic field??

Awesome episode!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ben is a diabolical genius. I love it.

Hurley disappointed me this episode. He thinks it is a bad idea to keep Charlotte a hostage, but then becomes the bait in a plan to take Miles, Kate and Sawyer hostage? I thought better of him. Tsk tsk.

I find it interesting that Locke is really the only one in the whole camp who is actively trying to figure out how the island works. Everyone else who is with him is only doing so out of fear. He is still very much alone in his endevour, trying to hold together and keep safe his group with heavy handed tactics.

Also, Sayid said that guns would be the last option, but then he breaks into the barracks kicking down doors with guns pointed. So much for diplomacy. The distrust between the two groups is high - I wonder what the consequences of this could be - could a lostite be killed by another lostie?

Also, still no Jin and Sun...That sucks.

Now that the writers strike is over there are going to be 5 more episodes produced for this season. That is 3 less than was originally planned, so it is kind of bummer, but at least we will get an actual season finale.

I agree with what you said earlier about Ben, Harpe. He is becoming one of the most fascinating characters on the show. He always is a step ahead of everyone else regardless of what appearances may be.

I too noticed that they haven't showed much of Jin and Sun this season..hmm

Something I've noticed about the show is that since the season finale last year, the show has taken on a much darker town and the intensity has really increased. The show was always a mind blowing puzzle, but now every episode seems heart pounding. Maybe it's just me.

One other thing. Since Ben got off the Island and he obviously isn't one of the Oceanic 6, I wonder if Julia and Desmond might leave the Island as well. Desmond did get on the helicopter with Sayid....

neither ben, desmond or juliette were on the oceanic 815 flight, therefore are not one of the oceanic 6... i got a strong feeling when someone at the helicopter asked her name and then said they studied the manifest and her name was no where on it.

i feel as if something goes terribly wrong in lockes camp that causes a partnership to be severed with death. example: locke kills aaron, claire is left alive or jin is killed and sun is left alive or rose and bernard.
therefore i change my pick on oceanic six , instead of micheal, it is whichever person does not die in their pair. (but the others i picked will go home. jack , kate, hurley, sawyer, sayid.. and now whomever this is. )

Oops, yeah Juliette. My point is that because those three aren't part of the six, it's still possible that they also got off the Island. And in Ben's case, we know so.
