Juliet & Jack

[D-Roc]

Juliet and Jack..theres just so much intensity between those two.. and an ocean of possibility

I mean, i personally dont see the resemblance between Jules and Sarah but i accept that there is a link there (Ben even mentioned it to Jack didnt he?), plus we have the possibility that Jack might actually be working with Jules in his sabotage of Bens kidney Sack! I just think that they are so well suited..she seems the type of women who would release him from his shackles. I know it doesnt take much to make Jack leak a tear or twelve but she really did break him down at the start of the season..but it wasnt in a malicious way (imo)..she derived no satisfaction or glee from it, infact she seemed to sympathise with Jack..and i reckon that Jack (depsite his protests) sympathised with her (over Colleens death for example).

WHat I also like about this possible pairing is the fact that they can both offer one another something of real value..Jules can offer Jack a chance to move on and forget the past - "It doesnt matter who we were....all that matters is who we are" (3x02)..and Jack can offer her freedom (from Ben? the Others?)..

Anyway, i have more to say on these two, but i'll leave it at that for now. Anyone else have any opinions on Jack and Jules.

Also..what what there merged name be? 'Julack'? LOL!

I agree that they certainly have a complex relationship going on, and if you mix in the weird vibes radiating between Ben and Juliet it certainly does get interesting.

Like you Roco, I don't see the comparison between Juliet and Sarah, I don't see the similarity, but I guess that's coz I don't like these women if different ways. Juliet coz she broke Jack and Sarah coz she cheated on him.

As for Juliet "breaking" Jack, that's something I can never forgive her for, and tbh, that's what she set out to do, make him cry, break his spirit and it was just an awful thing to do and so I shall always hate her for it. It was just mean, and yes, it worked for her advantage, but it was awful, and made me sob.

I agree though, together they could offer each other something, I think they could give each other the freedom they needed. But then again, I don't know if I fully trust Juliet, so that's yet to be seen.

But it would be interesting to see how they reacted if they ever got together.

And perhaps even more interesting would be to see how Kate reacted, and to see whether she really does love Sawyer or not......

Lol, I like Julack. How about Jackiet?

[D-Roc]

Yeah thats interesting - Juliet breaking Jack. I think traditionally people tend to remember Ben's role in breaking down the man..but Jules is just (if not more )culpable imo. I know some would argue that she's under orders from Ben, but i still think that she's very scheming and 'capable'. I wonder whether Ben see's her as a threat. Obsviously she is, but does en realise just how badly she could bring him down? What has prevented her from bringing him down earlier i wonder? What ramifications will she face if if Ben dies and she makes it too obsvious? Also..what kind of woman would want to kill a man like Ben? I mean, surely she doesnt hat ehim THAT much does she? ..hmm, maybe it's all smoke and mirrors..is Jules completely playing Jack!? (lets hope so, lol)

As you said..just how far can we trust her? She is so difficult to read..i do feel that she cares for Jack on some level, but then a woman that could potential take down Ben is never to be trusted really. She will do what it takes - you're Sawyer even said it himself: "the woman..the blond chick..she would've killed you , no trouble" (owtte)

Yes indeed..it would be most interesting to see Kates reaction should Jack and Jules hook up. Would she be jealous? would she finally stop running..and begin 'chasing'??

'Jackiet'..lol :P

i think it would be veyr interesting, mostly because of the reasons that've already been said, but i think it would also be interesting to see the others and losties merging together, like the "leader" of the losties and one of the others.

saying that sort of reminds me of arranged marriges and stuff, people get put together to bring more honor to their families and stuff? maybe it's the same with losties and others sort of thing, it could end up bringing both groups together, although i think this is quite unlikely

I know, and it's shocking from me to hear me not blaming Ben, I'm sure, but Juliet was the one who talked to Jack, the one that read th efile, the one who kept going even after he broke down, even after he started sobbing and pretty much begged her to stop. I hated her for it, and I sobbed with Jack, possibly for Jack. It was not nice to see a man so broken, surely even some of the Jack haters in the world would agree? I think she is a big threat to Ben, and what kinda woman wants to kill Ben, well I would've said me a while ago, but I've calmed a bit, as it's not so much Ben who wants to hurt Sawyer, but Pickett. But perhaps she wants to break free? And why hasn't she done it earlier, hmm, I'd like to lean towards my theory that they'd had some sort of relationship.

She is indeed, and yeah, Sawyer seemed to cotton onto her ways pretty quick, so can Juliet be trusted? No. Is it possible she's playing Jack, yes. Is it possible she's been playing both Jack and Ben? Yes indeed. Perhaps she wants all the power for herself?

I think Jack and Juliet would work well together, and yeah, it would be interesting to see Kate, and in turn, Sawyer's reaction to such a thing. I do worry that it WOULD cause Kate to start chasing, and that would in turn cause Sawyer more stress.

I think the pair Jackiet would be a very exciting but volatie couple!

Made me laugh too.

I think they couldve had something before, but then it was ended, and maybe thats why they are "bitter" maybe, towards each other?

Hmm, thats an interesting view Jen..

It also reminds me of genetic matching..another potential theme in the Others power 'make-up'

Have Juliet and Ben been paired together by a higher establishment (Him? Jacob?).If so then this would suggest that their relationship is not one of 'choice' and that they were forced into it..almost like an arranged marriage (as you mentioed). This would further offer some explanation as to the nature of their tension - which does only seem to be one way, i must stress. As Ben doesnt seem too ruffled by her - except when she allowed Jack see the x-rays.

yeah, and maybe asking jack to kill ben during his op would be her escape, it would make sense methinks!

Yeah, ..it's quite worrying actually..i mean if she's capable of this murder by proxy, i mean either she has just reason to kill him (unlikely imo) or she's power hungry or she's just really warped! or perhaps she feels that it's for the good of humanity

[Losty]

It would be possible in my opinion. I think Jack may fall for her as she looks like Sarah and the betrayal (possible) of Kate and Sawyer. But if Ben lives (here's hoping) then I think he may want to use it to his advantage, but Juliet may have some secret feelings.
