I wonder if the real Henry Gale, in his Widmore balloon, was also working for Penelope, sent to look for Desmond.

[Genix]

Hey did anybody else notice the guy who was running the bleachers when desmond's ex wife said that she "had money and could find anyone"


It looked like Jack

It was Jack.  Desmond and Jack met each other before being on the island on those steps.

That's a good point, maybe Penelope is now in charge of her father's business and is investigating into his former partner in business; The Hanso Foundation.  He could have found out about DHARMA and its reasearch into an electromagnetic island, while Penelope is also looking for her lost love who she hopes is on the island.  I think the two may very well be created.

Moderators:  By the way, it might be a good idea to merge this with the "The two men at the end" thread since they're about similar topics.

That's a good theory, I wouldn't be surprised if that was true.  Or perhaps he was hired to find the Island rather than Desmond.  Either way, that would be good motivaton for heading out in a hot air balloon over the Pacific Ocean, though I personally would've chosen a plane.  I can't wait until we get an official Widmore website so that we can see if it was registered in Minnesota (Where the real Henry was from) or the nearby area.  That would provide a good link between the two.

was it Matthew Fox and Josh Holloway playing those 2 characters?

[Kat_76_us]

They were speaking portugese

I read somewhere (I think on 4815162342) that Kelvin is the *twin* of the guy Sayid worked with in the gulf war.  It would be an interesting tie-in with bad twin.  Also potentially everyone on the island is one of a good and bad twin?

The electromagnetic field sent them a signal.  Maybe Penny has been looking for the island for quite some time, just the button was deactivating the magnetic field, so a signal couldn't be sent off.  So maybe, in a way it helped the losties cause theres a possibility they could be rescued now, but Fake Henry keeps saying that noone can see the island.  Dammit, I hate mysteries, I also hate 4+ month waits to figure out what the hell is going to happen!

Strange, but intriguing. That might also explain why Not Henry (if he was a twin of another Him) was so insistent that he wasn't a "bad person." If he's supposed to be the "bad twin," maybe he's running and wants to convince people that he isn't the bad one.

Who knows?

If you read the book "Bad Twin" (A bit of Lost spin-off material(available at bookstores)); you will find that the main character, who is a private detective, has been hired by a man named Cliff Widmore--he is one of a pair of twins that are heir to "the vast Widmore empire"--this includes a large "well-known" building in the center of NewYork called DUN dun DUN!!!!...the Wildmore Building...anyhoo, on the 42 floor of this building are the offices of the Hanso Foundation and on the 47th floor you find Cliff Widmore's offices.

Not done with the book...not sure if it goes into this any further...but thats what ya got.

[phishergirl]

The Widmores mentioned in "Bad Twin" are Arthur and Vivian, and their twins - Clifford and Alex (Zander).  The people on the show are Charles and Penelope Widmore.  Hmmmm...Gotta be related, but how?

[bvav22]

ok, yea the widmores are associated with hanso, and we now know widmore didnt want desmond seeing his duaghter, and he knew desmond entered the contest to get his honor to get to her agian. what way would be good to get rid of desmond??? TRAP HIM ON THE ISLAND, penny must have found out some how during the three years he was gone, she is  now trying to find this island to get to desmond!

[stebangrr]

is it me or did the guy who phoneed peny looked an awful lot like jacks bad  eyebrow twiin???

[Dethlok]

I found it strange that they were in either the North or South pole... I wonder if the Island is actually located at the corresponding East or West Poles... err... along the equator.

[stebangrr]

but he had the scars on his face, the scars that sayid made, i think the porugese guys really were jack and sawyers twins, or i mean they were josh and mathew allright.. i think the ppl on the island are there cuz theey are twiins to ppl in the real world....j/k but its weird though
