Ok like many of you...I have been wondering where the hey is Olivia Goodspeed?...well I think we have an answer. It is from Entertainment Weekly's Doc Jensen. His articles are awesome by the way. He talked about her and here's the low down...it's more like a fact of the show than a spoiler but, I'll put it in !!spoiler tags anyway.
From EW.com
"Reader Brandon Haverland wrote me last week to say: ''In your recap of 'LaFleur,' you wondered about Olivia, Horace's 'original significant other. After re-watching 'The Man Behind The Curtain,' which contains the only appearance of Olivia, I find myself wondering why we all readily accepted Olivia as Horace's 'significant other.' Could she not be Horace's sister?''
Excellent point, Brandon. And more, I bet your theory is totally correct: As I reported the day after ''LaFleur'' aired, the actress who played Olivia, Samantha Mathis (Pump Up The Volume, Harsh Realm), chose not to be part of the new season of Lost and isn't expected to appear on Lost ever again. So whether by design or by circumstance, my guess is that Horace and Olivia will indeed be revealed as siblings — if Lost ever decides to mention Olivia again at all. "

Just so everyone knows...Olivia was only known as a "friend" of Horace and a teacher in the course of the ONE episode she was in...ABC released her last name, which is when everyone was thinking OK wife of sister. We later found out she was Horace's wife from the enhanced version of "Cabin Fever" SO I guess since they never said it on an ACTUAL EPISODE of the show...(just in bonus stuff) They can backtrack and still tweak the story...not what i wanted...and i am sure not what THEY wanted, but eh i can live with it. I am just assuming that Amy was going to be Olivia. She is just kind of an actress replacement, but in the form of a whole new character.
