LOST EASTER EGGS 5×04: The Little Prince
42 Panorama Crest
You’d think after their experience with the Numbers, Kate wouldn’t want to live at 42 Panorama Crest, but she does.
Sun’s Report
Like many fans, you were probably eager to find out what the text said in the report Sun received. Well, it probably won’t relate much to the show, as the text is largely from an online game that is not related to Lost. For a full breakdown of the text, visit THIS WEBSITE.
Canton Rainier
As user ReceptionFades was the first to point out on BuddyTV, the name of Ben’s carpet cleaning van is “Canton Rainier,” which is an anagram of “reincarnation.” Since the Hoffs-Drawlar Funeral Parlor used an anagram to foreshadow the flash forward, does this also mean something?
Ajira Bottled Water
The Ajira Airways bottled water the castaways found in the canoe was a huge piece of the puzzle for people who have followed the online world, where this season’s web tie-in was with the fictional Ajira Airways, an airline that talks a lot about fulfilling your destiny and returning to the island.
Ajira Airways
In addition to the obvious suggestions that Ajira Airways is somehow connected to the Oceanic 6 returning to the Island, the online experience also included several Easter Eggs relating to 316, particularly the famous Bible verse about having everlasting life for those who believeth in God.
Slip 23
Ben told everyone to meet up at the marina at slip 23, which I’m guessing is just his way of being funny.
Octagonal Raft
My fellow BuddyTV writer Oscar Dahl observed that Rousseau’s team’s raft was shaped like an octagon, and while I only assumed it had some vague relation to the DHARMA logo, he offered the possibility that her scientific research team may actually be a part of Octagon Global Recruiting, the DHARMA recruiting business that also had an online tie-in with a big show during this past Comic-Con.
The Numbers on the Radio
Listen closely after the French science team rescue Jin and you’ll hear that they’re listening to the recording of the Numbers, as Rousseau said.
Robert
In my 108 Lost Characters You Need To Know, I included Robert, Alex’s father who Rousseau very briefly spoke about to Sayid. It turns out I was right, you did need to know him, because Robert showed up as part of Danielle’s team last night.
