I agree. “What lies in the shadow of the statue?” was a lesson all DI children received in their schooling on the island.

Of course the show has a sub-plot about time travel, but during the broadcast into the future by Faraday and Chang you can hear Daniel say we only have a pinhole of time to broadcast the message. So, I do not think it is likely that He had the chance to not only send another message, but to organize a group of people to do what. Course correct or blow up the Island in the future. Their isn’t a logical reason for Him to have a group of people working for him on the Island in ‘07/’08.
Plus, after Bram’s talk with Miles in the Van it seems unlikely that the answer to the question is a specific thing. the whole question seems much more esoteric. Mostly, to say they are not Dharma because of the way they look or what they are driving when they pick miles up is just generally non-sense.

My guess would be “time”. that is what lies in the shadow of the statue. Not a thing but an idea or concept.

Absolutely a third force. This is foreshadowed by the three boats on the beach.

[...] really like this theory from the Doc Arzt blog. He’s theorizing that perhaps Bram, Ilana and co. are the sons and [...]

Me thinks those people chatting with Dr. Chang on his video might be Daniel, Sawyer and Jack (I would hope Miles is there and I just didn’t hear him talking), perhaps after they finally tell him the truth.

Inexorably, not Inextricably – which Im pretty sure means impossible to extricate.

I think the incident scares the bejesus out of the parents and the moms and kids are sent off the island for their own protection.

I like the idea that these people are descendants of the indigenous island people. What lies beneath the shadow of the statue? Their god a.k.a. Smokey. My belief is that the temple and underworld (Smokey’s house) its built upon lies behind the statue. Smokey is the key to all island secrets…

Yes I am assuming that in a show predominately about time travel the character who knows the most about it was able to communicate with the future..and imo 20 somethings abducting people from taco stands into the scooby doo mystery machine, to have a Dr. Phil heart to heart about family issues doesnt exactly scream dharma

I only got to watch the episode once but the timing of these Egyptian easter eggs should be mentioned especially after Ben’s encounter with smokey last week. These EGYPTIAN clues keep coming up.

Seems to me there hasn’t been much talk about everything that was on the chalkboard that Jack was cleaning in SLiH. (All of the egyptian context)
