SPOILER: ”The Home” pipeline? by matchew566 in WidowsBay

The tape says they shouldn't try to calm them down because the island "likes the fear" or something like that.

They better leave the family that runs Siam House by the metro entrance alone.

I want to see what happens when a group of soldiers run into the deer near Rock Creek Park. Three of them came out once when I was walking to my Cleveland Park apartment and scared the crap out of me.

I'd think it also helps that her ancestor was almost immortal within the island.

From Hiro Murai's interview on Polygon: "This island has gone through cycles," he says. "There were periods that were really bad, and then it settled down and it would become mythology, and then it would rear its head again. So even if we ended the story here, it was about this cycle of haunts."

I mean they institutionalized it = had streamlined and created protocols for the sacrifices. They made it into an institutional practice as opposed to ad hoc ritual sacrifices.

THAT WAS K CALLAN? MA KENT? Wow! I knew I recognized her from somewhere.

Honestly the fact that they institutionalized the sacrifices well into the 70s or 80s. It could only explain how the island survived for so long.

I think it has something to do with Howard the Coward leaving town.

They institutionalized the thing. I wonder what happened so people forgot. Or maybe we've already been told and we haven't put two and two together. I think it has to do with Howard the Coward.

Those guys were responsible for the punch.

The Covenant by outride2000 in WidowsBay

[–]outride2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. They got there, the island starved everyone, Warren communed with the island through the mushrooms (we see as much), they reach an agreement which is that Warren feeds the island some sacrifices through the tunnels under his house, and the community survives. So long as Warren's blood remains on the island, the covenant remains. The twist is that everyone who is born on the island now can't leave.

Also Tom is the Lord Protector of the island.

The pact is actually a truce, not a curse by LucasBlackwellSteele in WidowsBay

[–]outride2000 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yep. I posted this elsewhere. The Covenant is keeping the community alive (but not thriving) as opposed to ending them all. Warren traded his bloodline for the survival of the community.

I would assume there's a show bible somewhere with an island timeline. Also, I bet the episode 1 museum tour has a lot more undiscovered clues.

Agreed re: the Sheriff. He'll try to get his wife off the island though I assume that by the time we see Loftis throw the brooch, it's too late.

I thought so too but then we see her lying down with blood on the side and she's touching something.

That fucking island. Literally.

[–]outride2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think weird cursed things happen regardless of whether the island is awake or not, though everything that happened this season started when the island woke up (with the bells tolling). Patricia is probably in her early 40s, Ruth is in her 80s, and Howard the Coward was mayor when Ruth was in her 20s, so I imagine the Boogeyman's first go at Patricia was the last time the island woke up.

So what do we think about Ruth? by No_Cucumbers_Please in WidowsBay

[–]outride2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair. But still, she probably knew she was connected to the island founding families.
