Okay, so maybe we are over-analyzing, but here's my final shot. Like any normal, average, everyday dude like myself, Locke knows how to do three things: Cook a steak, change a tire, and scuttle a submarine. So, here's how yours truly, Casino, scuttles a submarine in such a way as to result in an explosion AND getting wet.ok that makes sense as to why he was wet!
First, even though as an average everday dude I should be intensely aware of the explosive force of various types of plastic explosives, I am still not sure that this block of C4 will actually blow a hole in the hull of the sub and sink it. I mean, what if it just dents it, or leaves a repairable hole but does not sink it? Then I'm pretty much screwed. I've watched enough of the History Channel, though, to know this is no nuclear submarine, so I figure there is diesel fuel in the engine room. I climb down the hatch, make my way to the back of the sub, and since it's just one long tube I can't really miss the engine room. I put the C4 on the fuel tank and set the timer, figuring that's going to cause some real damage. I've only got one shot at completely taking this sub out, though, and I don't know how much damage they may be able to repair....I mean, maybe they've got some repair facility on the Island or something. So, I want to make sure I not only blow up the engine, but totally sink the thing.
Luckilu, anyone who has ever watched JAG or any WWII movie involving a submarine knows that you can flood a compartment of a sub by opening the flood valves, and if you can get enough water in there you can sink the sub. So, on my way out, I open as many of them as I can find, which thankfully is easy because they have big red letters on them that say "FLOOD VALVE," at which time water begins shooting out of a pipe and filling the interior of the submarine, in the process getting me, Casino the Sub Sinker, soaking wet.
So, even as I kneel on the dock, soaking wet, with a gun to my head, I am still happy, because I know that they only way they will be able to repair the engine that just blew up behind me is to raise that damn submarine off the bottom of the ocean first.
When jack went to see Kate at Tom's place, Tom warns Jack "to be care full in their" pointing to his ear. probably indicating that the place is bugged.
Sorry, but this is a pet peeve of mine...
There, not their...or they're.
Is it really that hard? I see this mistake everywhere!
