Jack told Lapidus that it had been 100 days since he has seen a game. If time really moves slower on the island, why didn't Lapidus seemingly notice that it should have been longer since Jack has seen a game?

That's a good question. Maybe he thought they had a TV set that was on the fritz.

I think the time discrepancy is always a constant 31 minutes, never more or less. So theyve only been gone for the 100 days, and that's why Frank wouldn't notice a difference.

That would make for an extremely boring plot twist.

I think Frank will bring it up again later.

I didn't say it was exciting, it's just what makes sense.

That's kind of what I thought, too. Which is why the 31 minutes thing kind of bothers me and doesn't make much sense and I've been trying to figure out how it would even cause a difference. :undecide: I hope it's more interesting.

I don't think its a constant, I believe there is a difference depending on your bearing.

maybe when Jack said 100 days, Lapidus was thinking of the SECOND time the Sox won.

Jack didn't say that he'd been on the island for 100 days. Just that he hadn't seen a game in 100 days. Perhaps Frank just thinks he hadn't watched a game for a few weeks prior to the crash and didn't alert to it.

Maybe the Freighties were instructed not to talk to the survivors about the outside world (yet). Even Frank has to realize there's weird stuff going on with the Island (you'd think they'd be briefed at least a little), so getting into lost time issues could be considered complicating things unnecessarily.

Then the clocks would have shown the same time, since the island clock came in on the helicopter.

Wouldn't Lapidis already know how long it has been since the plane crashed in real time? So when Jack mentioned the 100 days, Lapidis would know that was off?

The time difference is 31 minutes? So the time it took the Scientist who did that experiment... "fire the pallet?" to receive the "pallet" was 31 minutes?
