![]() Once they go to serve him, their life prior to The Island becomes irrelevant. The second possibility is that any record of their former life is destroyed when they are chosen to go to The Island by Jacob. ![]() They wouldn’t need it for the life they would lead. It would be unlikely for any of The Others to be given birth certificates or any form of official identification. The first is that it could be an indication that she was born on The Island. It would be easy to overlook this as nothing, but if that was the case, why was it pointed out to begin with? After doing some digging into her background, the show discovered that she didn’t have a birth certificate. The information was revealed while discussing the church and its takeover of The Lamp Post station by Eloise. ![]() Where was she born and raised, and how did she get to The Island to become one of The Others? While the show itself told us nothing, its tie-ins offered one important piece of information on Eloise via Mysteries of the Universe, the promotional videos for the final season. We know virtually nothing of Eloise Hawking’s life before she became the leader of The Others at a young age. This is what led me to take a look at what we know of her life and try to fill in some of the blanks with my own theories. I have a lot of love for this character, which is why I tend to see her as a force for good. I’ve seen a lot of people insist that Eloise is one of the show’s villains, but I’m not convinced. When you look at her story chronologically, it’s actually one of great tragedy. To me, Eloise Hawking is one of those characters that’s extremely misunderstood. Much of her life is and will always be a mystery to us. How did she know so much about Desmond and Penny? Why did she know that the man in red shoes would die? And how did she know about the button and The Island? It was inevitable that she would return to the show at some point, but I don’t think any of us expected her to play such a large part in the overall story. When we first met Eloise, she was something of a mystery. The story of his past (or was it his present?) also introduced us to a brand new character: Eloise Hawking. He was aware that he was in his own past, he could interact with it, and he could try doing things differently to try and change his fate. This wasn’t just a case of us seeing Desmond’s past he had somehow traveled back to relive it. It was the first time we’d seen the flashback formula used in an entirely different way. For me, “Flashes Before Your Eyes” was one of the best episodes of Lost.
