Be Honest, Would You Have...

I would probably do exactly what Hurley did... check it out, see someone and the head for the hills!

The scenery outside looked different, but that means nothing going by past experience with Lost.

Yeah but I was going by where the characters were on the island. Hurley had come from the losties beach, whereas Ben and Locke had come from othersville in a round about sort of way, completely different sides of the island... and we saw no circle of ash

Lmfao! I swear, the parallels between your life and Lost .... amazing

Well, we know that it took them (Locke and Ben) at least several hours to get to the cabin from a camp on the way between the ruins and the temple - they left when it looked very bright, and I think it was the dead of night when they got there. It took another half day it would seem to get to the Dharma pit, which was not on their way. The problem is, that apart from the location of the beach and Othersville, we know nothing of where anything is, or even what direction anyone is going. The Others are in the middle of forest, so they could be going in any direction, but the Losties always head south as, well, they'd be in the ocean otherwise.
Basically, we don't really have any idea where anything is.

It's made more complicated by the fact that the timing between hikes aren't consistent at all.
The Hatch was like a day's chase away originally, and later on, it seems about half an hour away from the beach.

However, I don't think it actually is Jacob's hut - I believe it is a physical entity - the one Hurley saw disappeared. However, it's definitely meant to be Jacob's hut, though perhaps just a vision of it. That would be my reason for dismissing it as being the actual Jacob's hut, not the distances/timing, as they're erratic as hell.

Do not suppose that is where Vincent has been running off to?

I wonder who lived there years ago as surely Jacob has not bought the painting, unless he was once alive?

We can only speculate about Vincent's behind the scenes antics, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's been having contact with The Black Smoke/Christian/Jacob etc., but on 'And So It Begins' mobisode.

I think the painting looks quite old - could be from the Black Rock.

Indeed. Unfortunately, I did not find anything particularly interesting - once horizontal, I crawled along but it narrowed into normal vent size, and I certainly wasn't going to try to squeeze into that. Not quite a Dharma Station ending. The best part was the antics trying to get out. The entry was vertical - I could jump down getting in, but to get out, I had to push off the sides with my legs, and shuffle up. (I had a friend around the first time I investigated, before I knew I could get out like that. )

Such adventuring.

Assumed it belonged to the Others, walked calmly away from it (alos because of all the things that have happened with hatches) and then, upon hearing the slightest of rustlings, legged it so fast my asthma would make me collapse (and then proceed to crawl along the ground to get away.)

But... err, yeah... legged it without a doubt.

i would have shouted 'oi! mister sherpard! you got any whiskey?!'

no. i would have done one. especially if the cabin popped up again in a different place.

I just watched them both an hour ago, rushed home to start posting. After all they have been through, especially Hurley, I would have marched in and sat down next to jacob, and just said "Mate, start at the beggining..."

The cabins mysterious appearances and repappearances through up again, at least for me, the most important question in starting to understand LOST: Hurley's sanity. Is it his mind, or the islands, that do it to him? Especially considering the flash forward with Charlie. Is it Charlie? Its the slap that gets me. And being LOST, surely by logic it has to be.

What I would like to see is that scene through looks very two eyes: did he see the hut appear and disappear? How much is locke in the know, and how much is still blind faith in the island?

Ultimatly: its all around the hatch imo. I do NOT beleive they spent a whole season in there for it to be meaningless. I think the key to everything happened and is omnipresently emminating from there, deciding the paths people take: and especially Hurley's experiences.

First of many S4 posts! w00t!

Hopefully we are not expected to believe that he simply likes to take walks. I need to catch up with the Mobisodes though I take it this one involves Vincent?

The panting's origin is anyone's guess - though it has a dog does it not? I think that is a nod to Vincent; somehow.

Approached and had a nosey through the window
Being on a scary island I'd take things with a bit of precaution!
Then legged it!
