Rose and Bernard Tally May Come Soon

[ralph-]

Jack, i just finished watching the Canadian Promo for Next week's Lost episode "S.O.S.". it looks like Rose and Bernard have a thing or two to say about Dharma. it looks like they are trying to put something in the castaway's minds. You just might be right about their invovlment with the Dharma Initiative!

I could so use a Tally.

Should be a good episode.

I just think Rose is being pragmatic and sensible. I mean why - all of a sudden does Bernard want to start trying to get in touch with the outside world? Is this just a re-hash of the "Beach vs. the caves" debate?

I mean I hope Jack gets a tally here - but I am not sure.

Maybe Rose likes her life with Bernard now. Maybe the plane crash has brought them closer together. Maybe they had a lot of marital problems back in the "real" world and she doesn't want to go back to all that.

There's definitely a weird dynamic with Rose and Bernard - like Rose runs the show. I am not saying that a woman "wearing the pants in the family" (did that date me too much??? LOL) - is a bad thing - but with her complaining about his forgetting about her birthday - while she amazingly knew what date - at least in her head - it was - and now she's trying to dissuade Bernard from making a rescue signal???

To me - if either of them is DHARMA - it's Rose - not Bernard.

Rose has been just a little too sure of herself in this experience. She "knew" Bernard was alive. She counseled Charlie. She helped Hurley with the food doing inventory.

Yeah - there was all that romantic stuff with her holding Bernard's ring and stuff and all of her mysticism with "knowing" Bernard was alive - but I think she was there at DHARMA Central when Bernard was unconscious and injected with whatever it is that kept everyone else alive.

I am not saying that she doesn't love Bernard - but Bernard is clueless as to her involvement in DHARMA.

Just a thought.

Yeah- id like to point out that rose said she'd been driving in snow for 15 years.... where would one drive around in snow for 15 solid years? Perhaps somewhere where one was in charge of rounding up polar bears for gene therapy experiments on some island? mmmmmm? sounds like rock solid proof of the rose working for dharma theory to me! lol!

Goodness.

I really dislike the theory of Rose/Bernard being others. There has been no substantial evidence of them being so, and whatever little evidence there is is heavily, and I mean heavily, outweighed by evidence for them NOT being Dharma. Eh.

Anywho. She said she lived in the Bronx and New York gets a lot of snow. She didn't mean 15 years literally as in fifteen years straight.

oh come on now- the rose working for dharma theory is so very crackpot-y and fun hilarious. I love it- no one knows whats going on on lost anyways- why not go overboard and subscribe whole heartedly to the wackiest!

I personally am still not sure whether or not Rose works for Dharma. After watching this episode, i thought not, but now i'm rethinking that. One thought though, maybe Rose could have been sent out to somehow lure Bernard to the island for whatever reason. She could have conned him, knowing that if he thought she had terminal cancer, he would do whatever he could to heal her. She could have even gone so far as to have planted those calls reccommending Uluru. That's as crackpot-y as i get.
