The Faradox

Amazing reversal of the old GrandFather Paradox...go back in time and get killed by your own Mom, before she even gives birth to you!

Re: The Faradox

She already gave birth to him -- given his age. I love the name of your thread, btw.

I can't believe she killed him. I'm convinced he's dead. He's the ultimate sacrifice for the Circle. I hate you, Hawking. I hate you go so much.

Remember Richard and the temple. Maybe Richard will bring him back to life.

Re: The Faradox

Do we know when Dan was born? According to the timeline, Miles, Hurley and Kate were born in '77. Daniel seems older than them. He may be alive on the island already.
I sure wasn't expecting Dan's own Mother to shoot him. But in retrospect, she did show a lot of anguish on her face while trying to convince him to take Widmores offer and go to the island.

Yeah, that was the whole point of her line to Widmore about what she sacrificed by sending Daniel to the island. Both Eloise and Charles knew they had sent their son to the island to die.

But as for the timeline, with Widmore and Eloise still on the island in 1977, it would make sense that there's a young Daniel running around in the hostiles' camp.

That's what I was wondering too, was Dan already born in 1977? I thought he might have been since they used the same actress as the piano flashback, and she looked the same age.(although that doesn't really mean anything)

Re: The Faradox

I wonder what Richard will do after hearing Dan say that Ellie was his mother, and seeing him in two different time periods.
