Who will be the first of the four new characters to die? My guess Farraday.

What makes you so sure any of them will die?

What makes me sure any of them will die? The nature of the show. Plus Locke threw a knife in Naomi's back. Others have died. Losties have died. Eventually a freightie or two will die.

i say Miles. Given his "ability", something's bound to go wrong, i betcha!
not to mention, he's an instigator and an antagonizer. And we all know how well the island treats "those" kinds of people. :biggrin:

You know lostchild when I first saw Miles I thought of Pickett, unquestioningly following orders and not thinking for himself. And we saw how well it turned out for him. The writers might create a tense situation by killing Lapidus, so the irony being they have a helicopter but nobody to fly it.

AHA! I betcha Sayid knows a thing or two about flying those crazy things.

and of course, the precious Jack line of S1 : "took some flying lessons....wasn't for me."

*impending doom sound* SOMEONE IS GONNA FLY THAT SUCKAH OFF THAT ISLAND. whether it's Lapidus or not.

good point, though, woland. Killing Lapidus would make for great tension.

lostchild, taking flying lessons and flying a plane are two different things. I took guitar lessons, doesn't mean I can play a guitar. I don't see them killing any of the freighties in the next episode, or they just might you never know who'll die on Lost.

i recognize that taking flying lessons and flying are different, I just wanted to jump on a conspriacy band wagon! come on woland! hahaha! j/k

i necessarily think they'll kill any frieghties too soon either. Just wanted to throw in my two cens to the thread, that's all.

I bet Naomi... Oops I hope that wasnt a spoiler.

It's hard to say at this point, because it'd just be speculation. If we're going for 'wimpiest to die first', then it's definitely Faraday.

Something tells me Charlotte... she knows the most about the larger mystery and we can't have any of that.

The pilot. Alcohol withdrawal without meds is gonna kill him.

Hahahaha.

SRSLY though, i'm not sure about "first to die" but i'm pretty sure Daniel will die this season. Jeremy Davies is the actor who plays him, and he likes to star in his movies, he's not the type to get tied down in the long-term by a television show. He'll just stay for one season and they'll kill him off or he'll escape etc.

I hope it's Charlotte - for some reason I can't explain she just rubs me the wrong way. When she got shot I was all happyhappyjoyjoy and then, darn it, stupid bullet proof vest. I don't know what it is about her but I don't like her. at all.

The one that is in most danger right now would be Charlotte. BUt she survived once, so...

Yes! Please let it be Charlotte. She's bland to look at. She annoying and snotty.

I would like to see the "ghostbuster" die. His whole vacuum cleaner scene seemed way to Hokey for me.

I don't want to see scenes like that again. So there is my vote.

I think the fact that some of the freighties are listed as "regulars" in the credits and others aren't is a clue as to who might hang around and who might not.

I'm going to say Lapidus is the first to go. His call to Oceanic and his insistence that the body of the pilot wasn't the pilot I think sealed his fate. Oceanic has to shut him up or he's going to talk about what he knows, which won't be good for business :)

Plus there are too many guys with crazy eyes/eye on the island right now.

I have to think it will be Frank, too. He probably has a death wish and survivor's guilt for not being on the plane.

Hmm, but with Abbaddon's words to Hurley in TBOTE, I'm liking the speculation that these four were unknowingly sent to their deaths on the island, because they know too much. Abbaddon was perhaps trying to get information about their status from Hurley?

I have a weird suspicion that by the end of the season only one of the four freighties might still be alive, my guess it's Charlotte.

My guess is Frank.

Roland, I have to guess Frank to, simply because a show like this needs complications, and the ultimate tense situation would be having a helicopter but nobody to fly it.
