Another ‘Lost’ Set Visit
It seems like everyone is visiting the Lost set these days. A couple weeks ago we had spoilery goodness from Entertainment Weekly’s trip to Hawaii, and now TV Guide is getting in on the action. Check out some highlights below, or read the entire article here.
– Others leader Ben has been called many things — Master Manipulator, Bug-Eyed Bastard, Captain Bunny Killer — but an action hero? In the April 24 episode, Ben leads the resistance against the freighter fiends working for cranky billionaire Charles Widmore, while in his flashforward adventure, he does battle in the Tunisian desert and spies on a funeral in Iraq. Emerson was as surprised as anyone by this unexpected turn of events, not to mention a little anxious. "Stunts, languages — all sorts of special skills were asked of me," he says. "Feel like I’ve done everything but the kitchen sink in this episode. God only knows what’s next."
– In one scene witnessed by TV Guide, Sawyer, Miles and a banged-up Claire, holding baby Aaron, make a ghastly discovery in the jungle: one dead body and an extra dismembered arm. Surprisingly, the con man turns all Big Brother on the single mum. "Since Charlie’s died, feel like no one’s protecting Claire," Holloway explains. But can anyone really keep Claire from joining the island’s body count? After all, Aaron’s calling Kate "Mommy" in the future. De Ravin claims she hasn’t received the dreaded phone call from producers. "Maybe just let the baby go first," she says. "Or maybe fall off the helicopter. But if that’s the case, I’m not shooting that scene. Stunt double, please!"
– Remember that watercolor painting an institutionalized Hurley was working on when Charlie appeared in the season premiere? Jorge Garcia painted it himself. He also decided what to paint — an Eskimo fishing outside an igloo. "I was like, ‘hope people think this means something,’" says the prankster. Mission accomplished: After the episode, fan sites buzzed with theories, including one he expected: "I hoped people might think it had something to do with the guys [in the Season 2 finale] speaking Portuguese in the snow."
