then again the baby situations were different. claire was giving up her baby for adoption. rousseau was presumably going to raise it with her science hubby, but she killed him. claire’s boytoy left her.

Danielle only took Aaron because she thought that if she gave him to the Others they would give her Alex so I don’t think she was concerned about the infection when she took him…

I read up a little on Claire and found a reference to Danielle telling Claire that Aaron had “the sickness” when he had a rash. Is a rash one symptom or was Danielle just desperate to have Aaron? (She later stole him and ran off, which would imply he did not have the sickness since why would Danielle want him if he really did.)

Yeah, it’s never actually stated that Ben died when he was brought to the Temple but I think given the process we saw the Others try to put Sayid though it’s safe to say that if the gunshot didn’t kill him the drowning did.

amy goodspeed also gave birth to ethan, but yes, the similarities betwixt the two are striking.

this begs the question, was rousseau infected?

I don’t know what to make of the reappearance of Claire. The fact that she has been shown as a “substitute” Danielle is really interesting given the fact that only she and Danielle are known to have given birth on the island and neither will raise their child. Claire is walking in Danielle’s shoes now and has a common life experience. I wonder if the island Claire will be desperately attempting to get Aaron back. Was the vision Kate had of Claire begging her not to bring “him” back to the island the last bits of the real Claire’s “soul” trying to protect Aaron? I really want to see where they go with this.

people say claire died in dharmaville when the mercenaries blew up her house. Sawyer “rescues” her but it is apparently infected claire.

@blake when ben was dipped into the pool, it was clear, it was never stated that he died. while the non-remembering is the same, we must assume the healing is not.

Did we ever see Claire die? Or have we just always assumed she did? Could she have died from delivering Aaron? I really need to go back and watch the Claire episodes I guess.

Hmmmm … they don’t remember dying – isn’t that what Flocke says he DOES remember?

i would think that claire still knows who jin is. think about it. ben after going to the spring still new the folks at the dharma iniative… still knew his dad. sayid still knows jack and everyone else. they just don’t remember what it was that happened to them. they don’t remember getting… killed.
