LOST In Questions Episode 4

Other questions I have about LOST.

Why doesn't any of the characters learn any Korean and why does the Korean couple not learn any English? I think learning to say hello is at least something that they would be through in a day or two.

What was Kate's crime? Is she really guilty?

The sixteen year old recording was on the tail section? Or am I hallucinating that Jack found both in the same spot? If the recording was going on sixteen years, why have they been there only seven days?

What is the deal with all those dolls at the water hole?

Why does Jack's torch drip flames? If the torch was dipped in a flamible liquid where did he get that?

Is the reason Jack can't find his father's body is that Jack is dead, so both are now in eternity? If they are in eternity, where are the dead people on the plane?

Why would you burn the bodies in the fusalage? I would take them out, burn them some where else, and use the fusalage as raw materials for building shelter or use it as shelter.

Where is the washer and dryer? All those clothes look too good.

Terry, here's my take on a few of the questions.

The Korean couple is being driven by the husband to isolate themselves from the rest - this is why they aren't learning English. I did read a plot spoiler though that will bring a bit of clarity to this.

Since Kate's little episode is nod to The Fugitive, per the producers, I'm betting she's really not guilty.

The sixteen year old recording wasn't in the tail section - it has come from some other place on the island which the current castaways haven't been able to find.

Don't know about the dolls at the water hole though the TV Guide article says that every prop has a purpose - it'll come back into play sometime.

I'm guessing that the dripping flames is caused by a production mistake.

As to them being dead and in eternity, what I read in the TV Guide article and what Jared from Mysterium Tremendum speculated on is that they are in purgatory and their version of purgatory could be a very imaginative place.

They had a reason for burning the bodies in the fuselage that I can't remember. Your point is good. I know they scavenged through the fuselage before they burned the bodies so maybe that is the answer. Would the bodies have started to decompose after 2 or 3 days? Maybe they didn't want to touch the bodies.

I'm not ready to make an issue of the clean clothes yet since they've only been on the island seven days - they could have packed for a long trip. But this will be something to consider in the next few days.
