WALKABOUT

On September 22, 2004 Dr. Jack Shephard was a passenger on board Oceanic flight 815 en route from Sydney Australia to Los Angeles; he was transporting the body of his father, Christian Shephard back home to be buried. Jack wakes up in a bamboo forest on a mysterious “Island” where his plane “crashed”.
We witness a specific group of people who become a close circle of friends via the adventurous journey that brought them together.

Your orientation:
For LOST fans that are new to the detailed episode “notes” at Karen’s LOST Notebook, I’d like for you to see how to utilize the original notes; I bold type and/or underline words and phrases, as they MAY BE potential clues, items of importance, or they are indeed an established continuing clue line. You will also note dates on the bottom of those notes/posts to see when they were originally posted.

For the re-watch I will always link you back to those original notes for each episode, as I stand by those detailed recap observations, so click on those links. I feel they contain valuable information and must be read first.
I’ll incorporate the Missing Pieces Mobisodes and ARG information as well. The posts I make with the yellow post it note at the top (like the one above) will be additional information for each episode (which may spoil you). So you have a choice on which way to use my notes for your re-watch.

It will become obvious that I always spotlight the metaphor of LOST, as it is the essence of the story.
This post is really a short overview through these three episodes.

A tip before you begin Season 1: Season one mirrors season six, and remember Jack was not on “Jacob’s List”. It is very important to really look and see, listen and hear and keep an open mind to what you are shown. Our lesson is…”Careful observation is the only key to true and complete awareness”.
Now let’s have some fun!

And so it begins…
To start down the rabbit hole of this epic tale we must start at the earliest moments of its narration. The “Missing Piece” titled So It Begins depicts the moments before we’re introduced to Dr. Jack Shephard. It is important to watch this clip and to read my brief notes on it. {Click the link for notes}
