not sure if this was brought up yet, as i have yet to look thru the threads
but i'm wondering if the whispers are some sort of transportation device
any thoughts on this after what we saw last night?
-
Seems that "things" do appear when the rain and whispers come. Walt comes to mind of course.
But I always kind of thought about the whispers being part of the unseen study theory. Which excuse me I would have to go way back to a posted thread on. but that back in the day there was an idea of setting up a study where the researchers of the study could not be seen. Or to some point there of....
Or then does that mean some of Ben's people can use some sort of transportation "GIZMO"? Would this lead into Walt being special?
I would like to get some audio played backwards to hear what the voices were saying.
-
Just like when Richard appeared to lil Ben.

I totally agree with you on that.Maybe they are linked to the Temple?
-

oooooo good point!!! forgot about that
-
anyone have the audio backwards for this yet?
-
I think I know what the voices were finally saying to Juliet.
"You have 30 mins. *ding dong* Dominos!" ;D
-
I think one of them played backwards said, "I'm ****-ing Matt Damon."
I'm not good with these, though.
-
I was thinking that maybe the whispers were in each person's head and that they were a result of maybe Jacob reading their minds. Jacob draws from someone's memory and presents an image known to that person in order to convey a msg to them. The sudden appearance and disappearance supports the idea that they're nothing more than images... images that can be shared by more than one person obviously since Jack was able to see Harper.
I think it was Jacob giving Juliette instructions but stating that it is Ben who wants the deed done because it has to be someone who Juliette would listen to. We've no evidence that Ben has psychic abilities so how could Harper have been instructed to find Juliette (at a specific location and time in the pouring rain in the middle of the jungle) while being confined by Locke. The whispers seem to occur just before people or things appear so, IMO, it must be Jacob getting stuff done.

interesting, very interesting!
-
So then Shaky would it be similar to Hurley seeing Charlie? It was similar in fashion when Harper confronts Juliet as Hurley and Charlie just no whispers.

Yes, Jacob or the Smoky guy, or if they're one in the same, then them...No way did Ben Send the Priscilla Presley look alike out there....

Wait Beann I have it finally. It says, " I'm F'N Ben Aflack"

THanks. I thought I was losin' my mind.

If the whisper transcripts are to be believed at all and aren't just fake easter eggs, I'd say the whispers are dead people.
-
where's haley joel....?
just drunk somewhere flippin' cars....
-
Does anyone know what the whispers said?

Look back at page one.
I beleive it said, " I'm FN Ben Aflack." ;D
-
I believe Lost-N-Detroit is correct. I re-watched the part with the whispers and they do indeed say "I'm FN Ben Affleck." There might be something about "This is not a man crush" too but it's really faded.

Nope. thebeann is actually an anagram of Beth Anne. I have four brothers but no Tim.

what if they are somehow related to "the Box" if it can make anything appear, could be possible it can move things or people around the Island. Maybe "the box" is at the temple.
-
i like that theory, one that does not require deep extensive Lost knowledge to figure, for you average viewer whose not addicted to forums and such..

i'm not sold on the box, i think that was metaphoric for "you dont know what i can do, or what i'm capable of like miles does"
-
I don't think time travel occurs physically on LOST island but mentally. What makes time travel different from vividly remembering the past or imagining the future? I think the whispers are information from another time.
-
Well, what makes it different is that you can at least briefly change the past and it can kill you....
As for the Whispers, heck, this is as good a guess as any. We just don't know.
-
seriously, wth did the whispers say?
-
I think the whispers are connected to Jacob (see my other post http://lost.cubit.net/forum/index.php?topic=7441.msg363423#msg363423 )
My theory is that Jacob is tied to that cabin of his and cannot move (maybe he is imprisoned - hence the "Help Me"), but he sends others to do his chores (The Others kidnapping the kids and so on) with his, shall we say, blessings (the whispers). He can also manipulate energy in order to appear as people (as I think he did with Harper) - whispers again. I know it's vague, but it's all I can think of right now.
-
LB, Lostpedia keeps transcripts of the whispers. I dunno if they have this episode's up yet, but they've got all the previous ones. Interesting reading.
-
dont think that the box is real, just another metaphor used by Ben to confuse Locke. by the way, the end of the episode was hilarious, when Ben told Sawyer and Hurley that he would see them at dinner :D
-

Dead or "mostly dead" people.
-
Jacob draws from someone's memory and presents an image known to that person in order to convey a msg to them.
I've liked this idear to explain the appearances of the people AFTER the whispers. I believe that the whispers themselves are a result of a door being opened by this process and are not produced by the same cause. In other words, it's like a remnant.

Wouldn't it be more like a 'cause and effect' than a remnant? i.e, 'other world' gets opened to let Harper through to communicate to Juliet, and when that door gets opened, the sounds of the people behind the door escape out into this world.
-
If the "things" that we see are indeed Jacob, then maybe the sounds aren't whispers at all, but the sound of Jacob reading through peoples memories to figure out what he should appear as.
-
Funny how it seemed to scan Juliet (flashes) when she was with Kate. Like it had never seen her before, when we know she's been there at least 3 years.
-
Well, she's been inside that sonic fence the vast majority of the time....
-
and smokie has had no reason to scan her before now... I mean not everyone has seen smokie - only a select few... not because they found smokie or just stumbled across it... Smokie actively seeks thos it wants to scan. For what reason and for what outcome is still in the minds of tptb.
-
Well, she's been inside that sonic fence the vast majority of the time....
As far as we know, so far. SHe hasn't exactly been forthcoming about everything she knows. I don't trust her. BURN HER...SHE'S A WITCH! :o
-
I dunno, Dizzy, it could be that part of Smokie's job is to scan about everybody it comes across. Hard to say at this point.

there's been so many jungle expeditions by our losties though.. you would think they would all be coming back to camp with smokie stories....
-
Well, that's a point. Sayid in particular has traveled far and wide. You'd think he'd've had an encounter by now, so maybe you're right! Or maybe Smokie just doesn't come out all that often.
-
hot press::: this just in... one of the whispers has been translated as follows.....
"Monsters out dere, leakin in here, all sinkin an no power? When are yousa tinkin wesa in trouble?! "
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Whispers in "The Other Woman"
Right before Juliet runs into Harper in the jungle:
"Sarah is having another..."
"Is that the other woman?"
Right when Juliet runs into Harper in the jungle:
"Look out"
"Sarah is having another..."
"Did you hear that?
"If she won't save us then who is?"
"Sarah, somebody's coming."
Male: There is somebody coming
Female: Hold on one second
Male: There is somebody coming
---Juliet sees Jack---
After Jack runs into Juliet and Harper:
Male "Sarah it's someone we know, Sarah it's someone we know"
Female "I'm not answering"
Male- answer them
"We have our answer"
"Can we trust her"
Finally, a very faint whisper can be heard right before Juliet uses the pulley door contraption at the Tempest Station.
"Its Juliet"

Not sure if this qualifies as spoilers, but WOW!
That raises a lot of questions:
1. Who is Sarah? Sarah is having another what? Baby, vision, seisure, what?
2. Is the thing shapeshifting as Harper a conglomerate of people (WE, save US) ? Is Jacob a collective ghost? The ghost of the pirates or an earlier one?
3. Why do they call Juliet "The other woman"? If she is the other woman, who is the first one? If she isn't, who are the women reffered to?
etc.
-
The only Sarah I recall is Jack's ex. Maybe she was doing shots.

Lostpedia: Sarah, a nickname Christian used for Ana-Lucia
Both are dead and their bodies are on the island...
-
That's right. Nice catch!
-
I always thought the whispers came from some sort of monitoring station. But all the hatches are being eliminated. The flame blew up, the swan imploded, the looking glass flooded, the hydra was exposed, the tempest is a "power plant," the pearl and the arrow were abandoned. We pretty much know what the orchid does and it doesn't seem to imply parapsychology or telepathy of any kind. What station is left?!

Yeah, very nice. Many of the whispers sound like they're regurgitations of captured memories, maybe even consciousnesses. In addition, sometimes the animals seem to speak (Hurley bird, Sawyer's boar) or weakened people seem to speak in similar voices (Sawyer channeling Kate's dad). Perhaps brief possession of a sort?
We know from Des's time travel that a consciousness is somewhat independent of a body. If Miles really can communicate with ghosts, well, what's a ghost but a consciousness bereft of a body. Perhaps the special electromagnetic properties of the Island make it easier for disembodied consciousnesses to hang around longer than usual.
Forget Miles meeting Jacob, I wanna see him run into the Whispers.
-
That'd be cool! You're right though, I always thought of them as dead spirits.

These.
Thank you! completely forgot about the staff. How many stations are there? Have TPTB said?
We've got 9 so far.
-
Not that I've heard. Some are probably from the ARGs and we may never see them.
-
I'm thinking 13-15. But who knows.
-
There certainly seem to be a lot more than the 6 or 8 originally thought.

Dead on balls accurate statement. Did we read to much into the blast door map? I did.
-
http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/Stations
They list the Arrow, Staff, Swan, Flame, Pearl, Orchid, Hydra, Looking Glass, Tempest, & possibly others (including the Door) from the blast door map (which is now my desktop wallpaper). :)
-
The blast Door Map always showed more possible stations. These were stations that Kelvin or Radsinsky never found but asumed that they were there.
These are noted on the Blast Door Map.
