Juliet encounter with the smoke monster is similar to Eko's encounter with the smoke monster in "The 23rd Psalm". Both of them stood there and stared down the smoke monster.
Later on Eko was killed by the smoke monster. So do you think Juliet will be the next to die, like Eko?

I wouldn't be surprised if she is next on the chopping block, Her story is almost done; I'm not sure what else they can accomplish with her.

I don't think Juliette is going to die. She has become a pivotal character in the series. I think Charlie is going to die by season's end though. He is trying too hard to help raise Aaron, and as Claire was told, she has to raise him by herself.

I don't think she really stayed smokey down, but I wouldn't mind if she was killed off next. Maybe she will be buried alive. :grin:

It sure seems like her death is possible. And it would be a shame because, to me, Elizabeth Mitchell does a great job portraying Juliet. I love when she is one screen.

When Smokey scanner her (?), and then returned, I got the distinct impression he was returning for her. And I didn't think it was because he liked her.

Who knows if she is to die--I hope not. But it is a possibility, and Smokey could be the executioner.

Then it may be worth thinking about what Juliet and Eko could have in common.

They both killed people? I think Juliet is a goner especially since her fb is coming and they can wrap up her storyline. She will probably first try to take Aaron. She might die in the big showdown between the Losties and the Others.

Her story is almost done??? Are you privy to some info the rest of us are not? Really her story has only just started. We know nothing about her 3 years on the island. Or how the Other's got her to basically join them. You also have the fact that now if she joins the Losties you can have a new look at the Losties thru an outisders eyes. Very similar as to how Nightcrawler played the same role in X-men 2 as Wolverine did in X-men 1. Having us see the X-men thru an outisders eyes since the only time we have seen the Losties is thru their own eyes. Not to mention the story of her involvement with the Others even now. Also the fact that Jack-Kate-Sawyer storyline turns into a Juliet-Jack-Kate-Sawyer storyline.

Juliet's storyline has just begun. If your looking for people's who storylines have run its course look no further than Charlie.

I wouldn't be surprised if Juliet is the next to die. It will be a good ending to the Juliet/Jack/Kate triangle.

Then it may be worth thinking about what Juliet and Eko could have in common.

What do Juliet and Eko have in common? Both are relatively strong characters, but beyond that, they are pretty different.

Sorry but Juliet will be in season four pregnate with Jacks baby.

I hope she doesn't die anytime soon, what I do think though is that she will be seeing some visions a la dave and yemi, sometime soon.

Locke once stared down Smokey, with no consequence... until much later, when Smokey grabbed him by the ankles.

I got the feeling Smokey was "flashing" into the trees, attempting to get a better look inside. Or maybe he was snapping pictures.

Gotta throw in my vote to keep Juliet on the show. She's one of the characters I care most about. Two cents. *ding - ding*

I hope that Juliet sticks around for awhile. She's got so much info she can share with the Losties... and the fans! :biggrin:

I think Kate and Eko have way more in common, both were unrepentant about the killing they did. This made me think that Smokie was coming for Kate instead.

Then it may be worth thinking about what Juliet and Eko could have in common

Both have murderers..but than so are Kate,Sawyer, and Sun. But both Juliet and Eko killed someone while on the island. Eko killed two people,and Juliet killed Danny Pickett. Both killed an other/or as Goodwin would put it, one of good people. So could the smoke monster be after Juliet for killing Danny Pickett? could that be the reason why he killed Eko? ..if the smoke mother was killing people because they sin, or killed someone, wouldn't he/she had killed Kate, or Sawyer?

They're on the list too, and it ain't Jacob's list either!

Locke once stared down Smokey, with no consequence... until much later, when Smokey grabbed him by the ankles.

Actually, we never got to see exactly what Locke saw. we assume it was a the smoke monster. But when Locke was speaking to Eko about it,it seem like they had two totally different experience.

Doesn't it seem like it always raining when the smoke monster appear?

I wouldn't be surprised if they killed her off. I don't think the writers will let Juliete -- who, I'm sure, has bucketloads of juicy information regarding The Others -- get anywhere near the Lostie's camp; too many people with too many questions. Smokie will probably deal with her before they make it back.

I will be surprised if Juliet even makes it back to the beach alive because that would mean she would have to ANSWER QUESTIONS and we all know that never happends on this show.

lol, too true

In the preview...

Sayid is shown to be busy as a beaver with those little welcome-wagon niceties that should make Juliette quite willing to SPILL HER DIRTY, ROTTEN, OTHER-KAZIAN GUTS OUT!!!!

Sorry about that. i don't know what came over me.

Nevermind.

:eek2:

Right before it hit the fence, it almost looked like smokey was lunging at Juliet, much the same way it lunged at Eko before bashing him about the trees. It certainly appeared to be coming for her. For the time being, if we are to make the leap of faith that smokey won't figure out how to just fly over the fence, or that it can go to the ocean to get around the fence, then we can maybe assume that it cannot get out from inside of Othersville and that Juliet is safe for now.

Juliet's incident with Smokey was distinctly different than any we have ever seen before. I suppose the scene at the gate was similar in a sense with Eko's, but only in that it was a staring contest. I think Locke's "bright light" has got to be the same flashes that Juliet saw; and so I think this could actually be a good sign for Juliet.

As for whether or not something else happens to her, who knows?? I suppose it's fair to say that there will be a relatively high-risk period right after she joins the 815ers; if she doesn't tell them enough they might kill her, but if she gives away too much Ben might kill her.

I really hope she doesn't die, IMO she's the best female character on the show. I also see her moving to the other side of the Island as a great opprotunity for her character to grow. She actually grow to like living with the losties, and hopefully she will genuinely change as a result. The two Juliets we've seen have been complete opposites; maybe on the beach she can find a balance between being a nice person and not letting people walk all over her.

Based on spoilers we know that she is going to be around after One of Us, this bodes well b/c if she were to be killed off in S3 it would probably be during her flashback.

As Much as I like Juliet, I do not think she going to last long on the island, considering that she knows too much, she killed someone, and Jack likes her. ( Note: People who have information usually die. People who have killed someone , and not a main character usually die.and if Jack likes any other girl who is not Kate, well they die. (remember Ana/)) So since Juliet have 3 out of 3. she likely to die...if she sleeps with Sawyer, she definitely dead.

if she sleeps with Sawyer, she definitely dead.
:lol:

I hope she sticks around for awhile. I think she will. One question: Why is she always made out as an "Other?" She's made it clear she didn't want to be there, she wanted to return home. I don't know if she has ulterior motives in returning with Hack et al, at this point it seems too hard to determine. My gut instinct would be no. I don't particularly like or dislike her, I tend to be more comfortable with the original (season 1) cast. But I hope she is not killed off. She does provide female balance, since they never show Rose anymore, and Claire is kind of immature and wishy-washy. So that leaves three strong women...they need Juliet.

I agree with this. It did have a completely different feel to it. She was challenging Smokey in the same way Eko seemed to. But with Eko, it was like he was saying "Bring it on!" From behind the safety of the fence, Juliet seemed to be coming from a place not of defiance, but of curiosity.

I have a feeling she'll die soon, but exactly when? I do not know...

Unless the actress wants to be off the show, I don't see that happening. They need strong female characters like hell, since they started killing pretty much everything they had off in season 2. Shannon, Ana-Lucia, Libby, now Nikki. For some unfathomable reason they can't be bothered to develop Claire more, Kate's somewhat chaotic and inconsistent by now and until recently all of Sun's stories were like: "Oh no! I don't know who the father of my baby is!" So no matter how manipulative, treacherous, monster -targetish (but then again who ISN'T?) she might be - I hope she stays, because she's a strong character I rather enjoy watching.

Yes, I really think she will die towards the end of the Season. Or maybe sooner as we think.

I think Juliet is going to stay around for a long time, the producers have managed to capture in Juliet something that they haven't managed to capture in any of the other characters. There is a sense of complete moral ambiguity... just who is this woman and what are her motives? When we look back at Season 3 I think that Juliet will be the character the show has centred around (like Jack/Locke in Season 1 and Ana/Ben in Season 2).
At this moment in time the show really needs a likeable character who we don't know whether to trust or not.

It's really mean to say this but I hope she dies this season!! She just never really clicked with me. Is that selfish, to want her to die, just because I don't like her?!!!
Let me change my view a bit. I want there to be a good reason why she dies, not some stupid meaningless death. If she lives, then she lives I won't cry about it. I would just rather see her dead than anyone else on the show right now.

For one, Eko wanted to leave. So TPTB killed him off. I don't think Juliet is going to die. A lot of people like her (and that doesn't mean they trust her). She's a complex and interesting character. If your basing this on her encounter with the smoke monster, then why not say Locke or Jack? They both had encounters (the monster tried to drag Locke into a hole, Jack's father -- who MAY be the monster). Why not them?

I don't think Juliet is going to die. She still seems to have a lot of flashback potential.

I don't think Juliet is going anywhere. She's much too intriguing a character to kill off and there is a dearth of women on the beach. Being a target of the smoke monster, just makes it more exciting. Plus she serves as a rival for Kate and a love interest for Jack. (She's a much better rival than Ana Lucia because as a sophisticated doctor she is so much more believable as a match for Jack than a disgraced ex-cop. I can see where Kate would feel very threatened.)

There is all sorts of story potential for Juliet. We know a little, but not much, about her past, her life on the island, her history with her husband, her history with Ben, Ethan, why she was willing to leave a terminally ill sister. We don't know if we can trust her which makes an interesting dynamic with the other characters both Lostie and Other. We can surmise that Jack probably will trust her which could put the whole beach camp in jeopardy or at the very least, split it in two. She has information about the island, the Others, Dharma, hatches and tunnels, etc, that nobody on the beach has and that's an easy way to move the story forward. I think she'll be around for a long time to come.

I think she'll be around for a long time to come.Fully agree. The writers seem to always take the easy route by killing off the new characters, and I'd lose a lot of respect for them if they do the same for Juliet.

And even with her wealth of island knowledge, I can deal with writers shuffling their way out of that problem by continuing that annoying trend of having no-one ask her about anything important.

In addition, there must be an element of satisfying fans. I know many people on this thread have indicated that she irritates them, but for the most part, I think she's become a much more popular character than they probably had anticipated. They would be smart to roll with that.

I just have a feeling she will die that's all. Just a feeling. Not because her and Kate were almost attacked by Smokey, it's mainly, because she was/is one of the Others still. I like her, but yet I don't really trust her completely and you don't know what the Others are up to either. If she doesn't die towards the end of the Season, than that's a good thing. The writers still want her around and we have yet to see more of Juliet. I hope to see more of her.

You never know, she could just be an innocent person.. and she could sacrifice herself to save Jack and them again. Never know what will happen until it does..

I like her character, shes beautiful as well, but i sort of want her to die. Now that may sound bad haha, but i think she has too much information.

I like season 1 so much because people discovered the answers, you know they found things, big landmarks like the black rock etc. Season 2 was also good because of this. But the reason i don't like season 3 as much, and this is also the reason i want Juliet to die, is because the characters spend too much time finding out answers through talking to each as opposed to actually discovering them.

I mean like Juliet has a lot of answers, and it'd be way better if the losties discovered them on treks then if Juliet just tells them, which is probably what will happen. I mean we'll get the answers, but the way we'll get them just won't be that enthralling. If there were a book on all of lost's answers, just imagine Juliet reading it out to you lol. Not that exciting.

Not that exciting.

One way to avoid this would be if on the trek back Juliet ends up showing the Losties a lot of hidden things on the island. For example, say they are in the middle of the jungle and smokey returns, the Losties freak out, Kate looks around to find a bamboo cage to hide in, Sayid's goes into military mode pointing his rifle around at random spots in the jungle. And then all of a sudden, Juliet says come over here, and she leads them into a secret underground passage to hide in. The Losties then get a chance to explore potential underground tunnels. Or perhaps Juliet ends up leading them tot he radio tower. Also, we may see things revealed in a Juleit FB. All of these scenarios would avoid Juliet just telling us things, which I agree is not the most exciting way for some mysteries.

It wouldn't be all that surprising to me if she died, yet I think I would like to see her stay and Charlie go. Charlie is really annoying IMO. It doesn't matter though, whatever happens, happens.

Both have murderers..but than so are Kate,Sawyer, and Sun. But both Juliet and Eko killed someone while on the island. Eko killed two people,and Juliet killed Danny Pickett.

Not on the main Island though.

I think her and the others know how to manipulate Smokey, if not control it outright.

I think that iff everyone that comes into contact with Smokey dies then LOCKE should have died already he has seen it at least 3 times and Charlie saw it once with Ecko when Ecko saw it the first time, for that matter Kate could also die not that I want her to. I dont want anyone else to die this season, five people are enough

I'm not sure if I think she is next, but I have a feeling she won't be there to the bitter end. Juliet is a great character but I don't see her having longevity. As soon as she has answered questions for the Losties and TPTB bring an end to the triangle/quadrangle nonsense she'll be gone.

Myself, I like Juliette and am really looking forward to learning more about her. It's really hard for me to imagine her living with the Losties though! Sleeping on the ground under a tarp, getting dirty, cleaning fish etc. Can't wait to see it!

I agree with what some of the other posters have said here, I don't really think she identified with the Others or was happy living with them. She wants a way off the island though.

...TPTB bring an end to the triangle/quadrangle nonsense she'll be gone.

Agreed.

I think Juliet will live happily ever after with Jack, and if we had a virtual office pool on who's going to die next, I think I'd put my $1 on Karl.

Juliet encounter with the smoke monster is similar to Eko's encounter with the smoke monster in "The 23rd Psalm". Both of them stood there and stared down the smoke monster.
Later on Eko was killed by the smoke monster. So do you think Juliet will be the next to die, like Eko?

I tend to agree with you. Locke and Eko both stood toe to toe (so to speak) with smokey. It appears that Locke was judged as good and worthy of guidance. Eko was given a chance at redemption in the form of Yemi but wouldn't take it and then judged unworthy and killed.

So I believe that Jules was scanned. Does she have skeletons? Will she get a chance at redemption? If she does will she take it?

It will be interesting to see how her story plays out. I particularly like Juliet better than say kate, so I'll be extra intrigued.
