Would You Have Shot Daniel/Charlotte? - Lost Community Forums - Official Spoiler-free Lost Fansite

***firebreathingfishies*** · 03-10-2008, 09:01 PM

Taking away whatever views people have on Faraday or Charlotte for a minute and put yourself in Juliet's shoes. You have no idea what's going on, these strangers are off to mess around with the gas valves. You get there and they're all trussed up in gas masks and the like. Would you shoot them? Or would you stand back and see if everyone got gassed or not?

Reed · 03-10-2008, 09:03 PM

Assuming she knows about the gas, I would probably have taken Daniel's word for it because he seems genuine. His mask was off so he MUST have been telling the truth. I may have fired a warning shot.

***firebreathingfishies*** · 03-10-2008, 09:07 PM

yeah i agree. i wouldn't have shot either of them, but warning shots would be issued

(probably more in charlotte's direction

) but as soon as they had their gas masks off i would have settled down. i think that would have been the thing that worried me the most.

Same...
I'd of buggered off

I agree with Reed, Daniel seemed very genuine, especially since his mask was off. Charlotte though, was another story, just straight in with the attack. I wouldn't have shot them but I'd be very careful, maybe fire a few warning shots if things started looking bad.

What happened to put views aside

(Still agree

)

Good question..a real toughie, but I think I would have shot him in the leg or buttock. Therefore disbabling the geek whilst keeping my hands free from blood. Juliet being a doctor of-sorts would be able to patch him up. Not sure I could bring myself to shoot Charlotte, she's growing on me..Ben would understand

Seriously tho, I'd follow Ben's orders through..I trust him more than Widmore and his band of pirates!

How dare you!

Good thing Sayid was not holding the gun instead of Jules.

I agree. The minute his mask came off, that would set me at ease as it probably did with Jules.

Him · 03-10-2008, 10:22 PM

Faraday was pretty genuine, seeing as he didn't bother with the mask, so I don't think I'd have shot him. Of course, if I found the Others much more trustwothty than it appears they are, then I'd consider it a bit more.
Marks off for Charlotte attacking Juliet, since Juliet was willing to listen to her when she tried to explain herself. (Though I do understand that for the sake of drama, these things happen...)
