How come no one asked about the "Others" new clothes?

[didntseethatonecoming]

Am I just being too picky in wondering this? I would surely have asked if I was one of Losties. Seeing them dressed like this would really bring to light that this whole thing has been a facade .

Well, they knew the beard was fake, so I supposed they guessed The Others clothes were part of the ruse. Plus, if the Losties were smart they'd have realized that Ethan and Ben had access to clean clothes/razors.

Edit: Also, Kate found the ragged clothes in the Medical Hatch.

Look, they got tasered shortly before this. They would have to figure that if their enemies have tasers, they might have better clothes...

I would imagine something about psychological torture would distract you from noticing the spiffy new threads of your captors...

Also, much of the mundane stuff happens and is not shown to the viewing audience.

Perhaps Kate had a conversation with Tom

"Hey, you're wearing modern clothes, where did you get this dress"
"Not answering that one either"

.....

Would you have really wanted that dialogue in the show?

It's pretty clear that the clothing ruse is up.

I dunno, I always notice what my girlfriend is wearing

How come no one asked why they were being held in prison? Also, why now? They could have taken them weeks before.

I've said this in other threads but......I'm telling you, it's like an Old Navy commercial. And I really hate Old Navy. Funny thing is, I've always kinda seen those commercials as being so very fake in their cheesy "happiness". The Others seem to be living in a cheesy facade of "happiness" also.

[Lost In My Mind]

Haha, never really thought of it as being compared to an Old Navy commercial. True, I got that feeling that something was definitely "off" with the overall demeanor/mood of Othersville. Thanks for pinpointing that!

Yep. Any/all of the trio COULD have asked Them this. And gotten tasered for their trouble.

No, thanks!
