View Full Version : Why did Hurley say it was "cool" that no one else came?

When Sun greeted Hurley at the door and said she couldn't believe he came all that way, he asked if anyone else was coming. She said no, and he said "good." Was he referring to the other members of the Oceanic 6? Or did he just mean good that there'd be no one else at the cemetery?

I thought they were going to kiss. I almost started throwing stuff at the tv thinking it was another triangle.

LOL I have a Hun Avy i made aggges ago.. if the Sin/Jun stuff wasnt so amazingly sweet I'd use it.

But I dont know why he said good.. was weird

He may not be happy with Jack and Sayid, but I think the "good" comment was more about covering up their disappointment. Kate might have an excuse for not being there because she's presumably either in custody or not supposed to leave the country.

Ugh, I thought of the same thing. I was like "Please no. Please, please...?"

Although I wouldn't be shocked if a Hun ship starts up here based on that one scene.

Very good question.

I was wondering that too, but I don't have any good guesses. All I can think of is that perhaps there is friction between the O6. Maybe some of them have had a falling out.

I thought the "good" line was a bit odd too - mostly just based on the delivery. It was so emphatic! It seemed to me like it would have made sense if it was softer, like he was trying to brush off the fact that they wouldn't come to see her, and act like it was no big deal.

So, since it was edited in with this specific delivery, I'd have to go with the line of thought that the situation with the lying about their rescue is already getting tense, and Hurley doesn't want to deal with it. He is a pretty serious avoider.

Maybe is is not ready to see the rest of the Oceanic 6 yet. The exit from the Island might have been a strain on their friendships

Yup, when I saw Hurley at the door, all duded-up, I thought they were an item! (I like 'Surley' better than 'Hun' :biggrin: )

I wonder if Hurley was referring to any media showing up at the gravesite. And he said 'good' because he doesn't want to have 'speak' more lies.

I figured that he'd wanted to keep things low-key, and that he kinda has a thang for Sun. I mean, the first episode, he was commenting on how hot she was.

What was the occasion of visiting the grave? It was obviously not the funeral. Could it be September 22, 2005, the one year anniversary of the crash, in which Jin supposedly died?

In Hurley's flashback, Hurley clearly hasn't seen Jack since the "rescue" and he is embarrassed in his presence, because he chose to go with Locke instead of Jack (and then later tricks Kate and Sayid into a trap). I don't think it needs to be more than relief that Jack won't be coming.

I didn't think for one second that they were hooking up. I was just so glad that a friend from the island had come to visit.

Cardie, do you think it was a special occasion/anniversary of his "death", and that is why they were both dressed up when they went to the grave?

03-14-2008, 12:20 AM
I got the impression that this was the first time Sun was going to "see" him after the birth of their daughter, not necessarily an anniversary of anything. The baby didn't look more than a few weeks old to me. Plus her due date shouldn't have been anywhere close to the date of the crash, but I'm not a doctor, and we still don't know what kind of time travel shenanigans might happen when they leave.

He may have meant the rest of the Oceanic Six, and if so, maybe it was because that when they visited the cemetery, having all six of them there would attract lots of unwanted media attention.

Maybe if all six had been there, they would have to confront the obvious lies they've been telling the public and Sun wouldn't want that happening at her husband's grave.

Or maybe it was simply Hurley wanting to help out his friend Sun on his own.

CardieI could be wrong, but it takes a while before memorial stones are finished. Perhaps it was the first time going to see the memorial. The baby was still wee little.

I have nothing to add as I missed him saying "good". however, may I suggest Surley as an alternative to Hun? I think its funnier.

avandelay
03-14-2008, 01:06 AM
Did that seem a little harsh? Or was he just feeling a little bit proud that Sun valued his friendship enough to invite just him to come along and keep her company? I guess maybe it just seemed rude at first when it seemed like they were going to a funeral or something more formal...

Dookie555
03-14-2008, 01:11 AM
ill tell ya why he said it:

sun and hurley know that jin is still alive somewhere..if not on the island...then his death was covered up, and he is in china at the time of the birth...

sidenote: he gave a panda, a good luck gift in China or something (his words not mine)...and sun is in KOREA.

maybe hurley was expecting that jin would come to the birth and ruin the cover-up?

Yeah a little weird...
I'm thinking that maybe as part of the cover up is that some of these people (not all obviously) never speak again, for whatever reasons.
"Cool", I think was Hurley's description of the plan (oceanic lie).
Everything is cool.
I dunno. Maybe I'm way off here.

Maybe Kate has an excuse - she cannot leave California, and Sayid is out being bad *** but Jack has a golden ticket for the airline so he could. Hurley saying "good" or "cool" was strange - like he didn't want to see them only Sun and the new baby.

GettinLost

I think I am going to have to re-watch this one. I took it as they went to Jin's "grave" both dressed in black, which was why he was there and he thought maybe the other O6'ers would go.

engulfthemanatee
03-14-2008, 02:50 AM
Yeah I got impression that it was like, "Well I would have liked for everyone else to come too, but that just means that I get to spend more quality time with you, Sun!" And no, not in a romantic way, but Hurley's one of those guys that loves everybody and shows it.

janin

Yeah, I thought Hurley was going to kiss her and glad that he didn't. After rewatching this scene, I think he would have liked it if the other Oceanic 6 were there and wasn't happy that it was just the two/three of them, but he was relieved that Sun and Jin's relatives were not going to be there and they could talk freely about Jin, the island, or anything else that they literally can't talk to with anyone else.

Oh, and about the tone of Hurley's voice when he said good... I think he said it the way he did because he wanted to be quiet because there was a newborn baby in the house. That's all.

I guess maybe it just seemed rude at first when it seemed like they were going to a funeral or something more formal...My take on that is he felt more comfortable going to Jin's *grave* with just Sun. Might have been more than he could have handled with more there.

Yeah I figured it was just Hurley saying "who needs them" or "well we're gonna enjoy ourselves anyway" the rest seems like theory baiting but its not too far fetched for me based on the complex relationships that are forming in "the future".

gutsdozer
03-14-2008, 04:51 AM
Closed captions said "Good".

It's either because he was glad they didn't have to keep up the lie with nobody else around, or because Jack's drunk all the time, Sayid's working for Ben, and Kate was probably under house arrest at the time (this had to happen before Kate's trial, Aaron was about 2 years old in her episode).

03-14-2008, 04:51 AM
That scene was weird, there did seem to be some sexual tension or something. What was that all about? When Hurley said "cool", i took it to mean he didnt want the media attention but now im not quite sure what he meant.
I think i can buy that S

I also thought that he said "Good" because they wouldn't have to keep up the lies in front of others.

This scene definitely took place before Kate's trial. If Sun was 2 months pregnant when the freighter was off the shore of the island, then this scene took place about 8 months or so after that. Jack wouldn't have been a drunk yet. He didn't look like he had deteriorated at Kate's trial.

Surley? just kiddin'.

I just rewatched the grave scene on youtube. Sun never once mentions that Jin is actually dead. She says "The doctor says I was calling out for you" (not unreasonable if he is not dead), and also says "I miss you". Jin also said that he would do anything to protect the baby. Remember, he was a bad dude for Sun's father, a life he never wanted. Maybe for the sake of his own life, he and Sun faked his death so he wouldn't be held accountable to Paik. We didn't see Jin die, we saw Shannon, Ana Lucia, Boone, etc. die. They are dead. We never saw this with Jin. Hurley might know this to, and said "good" because it's protecting Jin further (the fewer people who would appear, the less attention, right?)

tpstroh
03-14-2008, 11:13 AM
I do not think there was any "sexual tension" between Hurley and Sun. I truly feel that Hurley was nervous when he realized that it was just him and Sun together. Hurley is the sweetest kind of guy. He is too kind to feel that way about another man's wife. Sun still STRONGLY feels the love she had for Jin and Hurley would respect that I feel.

I was not shocked to see Michael though. I knew all along when Ben mentioned he had a "spy" that it was Michael.

This was my thinking as well. The Oceanic 6 are known all over the world. They are all pretty recognizeable and it would have been a rotund Hispanic (my very hot rotund Hispanic), tall white man, a known fusitive, and an Iraqi hanging out in Korea. There would be no hiding it then.

nancy
03-14-2008, 11:46 AM
I think that whatever the circumstances of their leaving the island were, they must have been really traumatic. There would have to be a certain amount of "survivor guilt" to know that for whatever reason, you got to leave, but your friends are still there under who knows what circumstances. I think Hurley is comfortable with Sun because he knows her grief at having to leave Jin there and his own for having left Claire there and seeing Kate take Aaron, however that happened. When Hurley sees Jack in a later flashforward, they seem awkward with each other. And Jack won't come to see Kate when Aaron is there. And Sayid is killing people for Ben in order to help his friends. Hurley says "good" because he probably really doesn't want to see the rest of them. He wants to spend time grieving with Sun. He has a really good heart- no wonder he wants to go back to the institution.

The more I think about it, the more I think the "anyone else" Hurley was referring to was the rest of the 06. Sun thanked Hurley for coming all that way (to Korea) and he imediately asked if anyone else was coming. That seems to point to anyone else coming all that way, i.e. the 06, not the Korean media, etc. We've already seen that relations among the 06 are strained (between Jack and Kate, between Jack and Hurley, and between Kate and whoever is in the coffin, although that may not be an 06er), so this comment by Hurley may be advancing the subplot of what sorts of tensions exist among the 06, and why. As for the timing, if Sun is 2 months pregnant at the end of Dec, as she said, then Ji Yein would have been born at the end of July. The baby might have been 2 months old ( a tiny 2 month old), if we want to speculate that the date Hurley and Sun are meeting is the crash anniverary in Sept.

I thought otherwise at first, but after watching the episode again, I think it is the unease amongst the O6 is being portrayed.

The scenes of Jin going to the birth were clearly a flashback not forward. He was still working for Sun's father and going to give the panda to a Chinese dignitary that his boss was hoping to develope a business relationship with. There may be some symbolism in the panda, but I think these scenes were merely meant to throw us off the idea that he was either dead or still on the island.

Hurley and Jack had some tension between them when Jack came to the asylum to visit Hurley. Maybe he was glad that he wouldn't have to listen to Jack try and convince him to go back to the island again.

I have a theory similar to this. I think Jin could be working with Sayid and Ben and he doesn't want to put Sun and the baby in jeopardy, so he's gone "underground."

I think the O6 have had a falling out over both how they were able to leave the island and the lies they've told to the rest of the world. Hurley obviously feels guilty for his part in the deception.

In this episode, the captain makes a point about how the fake 815 recovery "put the families through the grieving process based on a lie." That is exactly what the O6 are perpetuating with their story that they are the only survivors.

Margalit
03-14-2008, 11:41 PM
"Just to be nitpicky... Hurley said, "good" in response to Sun's comment."

mise-en-scene, you're not being nitpicky; you're right! i'm the OP, and the thread was entitled:
why did Hurley say "good" that no one else was coming?
and began:
When Sun greeted Hurley at the door and said she couldn't believe he came all that way, he asked if anyone else was coming. She said no, and he said "good." Was he referring to the other members of the Oceanic 6? Or did he just mean good that there'd be no one else at the cemetery?

not sure how the "cool"got in there, for some posts.

wanders01
03-14-2008, 11:54 PM
I got the feeling that Hurley was happy that they would be alone and that because of that they could be relaxed that anything they said wouldn't be over heard.

Hurley was not feeling any of the pressure yet (from seeing Charlie) and probably felt that this time should be private. imho

bebe11
03-14-2008, 11:59 PM
Don't forget that Hurley is living over in the Locke camp. Maybe there were still hard feelings about that when they get off the island and the reason Hurley said "good" was because he doesn't want a confrontation with Jack, Kate and Sayid. Maybe they never "made up", except for Sun.

shanzy288
03-15-2008, 05:04 AM
I thought it was because Hurley is annoyed with jack because he wants to go back and jack doesn't. maybe jin is really alive on the island and sun wants to go back too. now that she's had the baby hurley and sun and baby can go back to the island together, cuz the rest of the O6 are just downers
100%
I thought it was because it meant that he was the only one to be at the funeral buffet.

what this guy said is mean. don't be mean to hurley

GageCaufield
03-15-2008, 09:22 AM
I, too, thought the reason Hurley said "good" was because he didn't want all the publicity of the "Oceanic 6" having a reunion...and because we still do not know how they got off the island yet....Hurley, as last seen, is still in Locke's camp...he needs to get to the beach, to become one of the 6..so I agree, that there is still animosity, and I believe it is with Jack...in the first episode when Jack visits Hurley, Hugo definately mentions keeping quiet, and the need to get back...Jack brushes this off....I think it is totally in character with Hurley to not only want to goback and help the lostaways still on the island, but hate the fact that he has to lie and be vocal about the fact that that is what he is doing....however they do get off could put the fear into him to keep quite, but he would be vocal about it with the rest of the 6....just a thought........

The baby didn't look more than a few weeks old to me. Plus her due date shouldn't have been anywhere close to the date of the crash, but I'm not a doctor, and we still don't know what kind of time travel shenanigans might happen when they leave.

According to DOC (http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/D.O.C.), Sun's approximate date of conception was Day 35, October 26, 2004. This would make her due date around July 19, 2005. 2 months before the anniversary of the crash.

HERMIT

Like some of the posters, I thought there was some implied sexual tension in the scene as well. But for me, I think the fact that Sun was dolling herself up with the lipstick beforehand and perhaps fidgeting (with guilt?) the wedding ring in the bag kind of fueled that perception. I guess in retrospect, we have to remember that as the scene was playing out we didn't know at that point in time that Sun was preparing to go to the cemetery. For all we could have known she may have been getting ready for a date out with Jin or some social function like a party. Then, to see Hurley appearing at the door in his Sunday best and then uttering "good" with his come-hither 'I think we're alone now' charm .... gah...I momentarily thought that Sun was back to her cheating ways again. LOL

Silentbanshee
03-15-2008, 12:50 PM
I wonder if "good" was for any media. The infamous pregnant woman of the O6 had her baby that must've been concieved just before the tragic early demise of her husband.

I imagine it could be a relief that the news outlets weren't there. But originally figured it had to do with either being relieved the other O6 or her father wasn't there.

Then, to see Hurley appearing at the door in his Sunday best and then uttering "good" with his come-hither 'I think we're alone now' charm .... gah...I momentarily thought that Sun was back to her cheating ways again. LOL

I'm still confused as to why Hurley showed up to her door in a suit. :undecide:

I definitely think Hurley was releaved that he didnt have to see the rest of the Oceanic 6 and deal with their lies and all the publicity around them. That line was still a little creepy though.

They were planning to visit Jin's grave and they needed to keep up appearances. Sun was well-dressed as well.

I was under the impression that Sun didn't initially plan for her and Hurley to visit Jin's grave. :undecide:

I think that Hurly was there, not only to see the baby, but for the anniversary of Jin's supposed death. This is why he asked the question if anyone else was coming, since the other O6 would probably make appearances too due to them all being directly related to the crash and Jin’s supposed death in that crash. The fact that they both dressed up for this ruse shows that they felt they were going to be watched by the rest of the world as Sun visited her supposed dead husbands grave site on the annual date of his death. Hence they knew they were not alone on this venture and had to keep up appearances. Hurly, said "GOOD" that none of the other 6 were coming, one reason would be it would be harder to keep up the ruse if more of them were there for the fiasco. Also it would be an uncomfortable situation with Jack and Kate since Hurly had taken Lock's side in the Island split and tricked Kate for Locke. This would make Hurly feel especially uneasy and awkward to either of them.

I thought Hurley said "good" to comfort her - that he would hope others would come, but when noone else was coming, he wanted to not make her feel bad about it.

I didn't notice the sexual tension the first time around, but I don't see what would be wrong with them being together. They went through an experience that only the crash survivors went through - the type of experience that bonds people deeply. It would make sense that they would turn to each other. Who else would understand such a thing?

Yeah this makes sense. I'll have to watch that scene again, because I apparently have the wrong impression. I was confused why Hurley showed up to her door in a suit, unless of course he and Sun had planned for them to go and see Jin's grave. However, I didn't get that impression when Hurley said, "well I guess we should go see him" and Sun looked a little bit surprised and said, "yeah I guess we should." They were in her private home, so for Sun to look surprised over her and Hurley's planned visit to see Jin's grave was quite puzzling imo. I would think typical dialog would have been, are you ready to go or something to that effect. Not well I guess we should lol.

I felt that maybe Hurley said good because the Oceanic 6 are famous, and with all of them together it might turn into a big media circus and would take away from them honoring Jin.

I watched that scene again just now, and this time I noticed that Hurley grinned broadly when he said it, as if it were a great relief to him that nobody else was coming. I suspect that he can't stand one of the other 5, for a reason that is yet to be revealed.

Maybe Hurley just doesn't like Sun's relatives.

I am completely convinced that Sun believes Jin to be dead. I'm not so sure that Hurley doesn't know otherwise. Perhaps he feels uncomfortable about lying to Sun (even though it's for her own good) and the rest of the 6 tend to annoy him with lots of nudges and "Hurley, don't..."s and such because they don't believe he can keep up the facade. It would bug the hell out of me to be in that situation, Itellyawhut!

Sun is more of an accomplished liar then Hurly could ever be.

Look she got you too! ;p

Hurley obviously doesn't want to see Jack or Kate or any of the other survivors for some reason.

This is all we can really glean from that simple line as of now. Like all things Lost, I'm sure the meaning of the line and Hurley's emphatic delivery will become clear in a matter of time.

However, as long as we're speculating, I'll wager this possibility:
If you're in the camp of viewers who believe Jin is still alive on the island because of the date of death, it is possible that Hurley and Sun are, at this point in time in the "early" future, the lone Oceanic 6 who wish to return. Sun's "I miss you" could be a clever clue that Jin is still alive and out of reach, or an obvious sentiment because he'd dead.
I'm 50/50 on this whole issue, not sure where I weigh in on Jin's ultimate fate just yet.

Hurley didn't want to talk with others about getting back to the island.

I don't see how this could have been any sort of "anniversary" of Jin's death, given the age of the baby. I think Sun and Hurley were dressed up for some occasion--whether that was visiting Jin's memorial site, or some sort of ceremony for Ji Yeon. As for Hurley knowing something Sun doesn't know, how many times have we heard commentary about Hurley's inability to keep a secret! As Sawyer said, "If Hurley knows, everybody knows."

What struck me about Hurley's line was not so much what he said as *how* he said it. He brightened a bit, and to me looked as if he definitely was happy to be alone with Sun.

I think a Sun/Hurley plot thread is interesting, and hope it does go somewhere.

Hurley looked great in his suit, too.
