So I was thinking about the Orchid Film and what we see. The Orchid could have to do with medical, zoological and/or psychological research using the rabbits. But in the film we see a second rabbit appear that is seemingly the same as the rabbit the good Doctor is holding. Then I read something and it got me thinking, wonder if the Orchid film can explain why there is plane wreckage on our Lostie island and there is plane wreckage at the bottom of the Sunda Trench? One object appearing in two different places at the same time that appear to have physical mass.

This completely flashed me back into my last viewing of "The Prestige"...I wonder if there will be any connection or similarity as we go?

As with many things that Ben says there is probably something to this so called "magic box" , but I don't think it should be taken so literally.

If he had access to a "magic box" that could produce anything or anyone, then why not just do the hocus pocus and snatch up Widmore. Or why go through all the elborate schemes to capture Jack, Kate, and Sawyer when he could just wish them up.

Anyways...... a "magic box" that could produce anything you want could be just a computer connected to the internet.

That's what's at the temple! The two giant Hamsters! sorry, seriously what if Ben did have something that he could send his henchmen through to abduct Cooper and bring him back?

I personally think that when Tom when to NY to see Michael Richard also went and kidnapped Cooper.. That would have been before Locke blew up the sub and that could have been how they go back to the "outside world"

I think this theory has good heart, but the show did make a point of showing Lapidus mentioning that the pilot shown in the wreckage wasn't who the TV reporters claimed he was.

That should put the kabash on the plane mysteriously replicating at both the Island and trench. I really think the fake 815 was planted so that the search for the survivors would cease.

to Folie au Deux's point about Locke's dad:
I don't think he thought he was kidnapped (although looking at it in hindsight, he most likely was). I believe he thought he was dead.

I actually believe that in the deleted scenes in one of the boxed sets, the pilot is seen taking his ring off while in a lounge at the airport. The lack of a ring on his finger in the underwater trench footage is what Lapidus thought was wrong. That's how it can be that the same people are in the two different places at the same time. They all died on the plane, but they also crashed on the Island and most died right away, but a few survived even though it seems their numbers are going to keep dropping.

This is probably one of the lies that Ben held back last night. We know he's always lying about something important - it's just in his nature, being a complete scumbag.

I don't think we can consider deleted scenes as canon.

Unlikely. Parts of the plane are on the island such as the cockpit. There is no way that the plane or people found under water is Oceanic 815. Since there is little evidence that supports that two things can exist at the same time, I going to say that the plane underwater is fake

"Since there is little evidence that supports that two things can exist at the same time"

What about the double bunny movie

Also, Recall... Widmore and Ben talking.

Widmore asked 'are you going to kill me?'
Ben says "You know I can't do that."

Not' that he 'wouldn't' .. he CAN'T...

What is Widmore's first name.. I don't recall if they ever said.

Charles Widmore
