Rousseau's relivance to the time line?

toddG · 02-26-2008, 07:57 PM

I am a believer in the timline theory, however I need some help figuring out how Rousseau falls into the mix (perhaps we will find out this season). Unless she is lying, her arrival on the island (198

is 16 year prior to the losties both on and off the island (unless someone can prove the losties didn't crash in 2004). She has a 16 year old daugher who appears to look the age. Is it possible she really crashed in 1888 and she is a survivor of the black rock? That would seem far fetched in my opinion. After all she would appear to have adapted well to technology. Not much has been mentioned about her relationship with Ben. Is it possible he really is Alex's true father in a strange twist of fate? Daniel did bring Ben to Jack (looking back It would be hard to believe Ben would unintentionaly let himself get caught in a net and Rousseau woud know that). I am beggining to think Rousseau is a mercinary along the lines of Mikhail, and we will find out there is a lot more to her story.

I like the thought of Rousseau being there since the 1800's, but its not possible. the black rock was a slave ship that sunk while the island was still forming. so nobody could've survived that.
but then again, this obviously is not your average island. so i guess it is possible
I think you may be right about Rousseaus story. I dont think shes telling the whole truth

Oh yeah! forgot to add this thought.
Remember back in the first season (i think) when Rousseau set up the black smoke and scared the crap out of everyone."the others are coming" thats what she was saying right? black smoke/tents with red x's?
Remember when she was caught at the end trying to steal Aaron.
What if she is with the others and was kidnapping babies for the others
just a thought.
