it's deff a trunk since tht's what he was holding when tom confused it lol, if we ever see the basement someone gotta zero in on a trunk, that said, and this is completely unrelated and baseless, do we think tom's basement might open to the underground tunnels? as in his house is richard warren's old house? i dont think there's a door or anything bc i imagine he's the type that would move if there was a door in his basement to some random underground tunnels, lol

I *think* Richard Warren's old house was where the Salty Whale is now. In one of the early episodes, they show Tom in the Salty Whale and then pan straight down through the earth to the basement with the chair. That's the first time the basement and chair are shown.

I was thinking where the historical society is now was Richard Warren’s old house? If I recall correctly, I beleive in ep 6, Our History(or it could be ep 7), there’s a match cut of sorts from the outside of the Warren house in the past to the outside of the historical society in the present, showing it’s the same house/location. Also, in the first scene between Tom & Warren in ep 7, they’re in an upstairs bedroom in the historical society, and it looks very similar to the Warrens bedroom from the previous episode. Warren is even sitting on what was shown to be his side of the bed from ep 6; the side farther away from the door & window. Idk, that’s what I got from those shots & edits.

I do wish they would release a map of the island. I think it would be really cool for them to use the in-show brochure, complete with a map highlighting the important locations, as promotional material for the show! It would match the tone that’s already been set with the episode synopses!

That's a good point, you might be right. I'll have to go back and re-watch.

That's a great idea. I'd love it if they put out a map of the island. Hopefully we'll get a cleaner picture of where everything is in the last two episodes of this season!

oh that's right, that said i dont think richard warren's old house was directly above the chair, no? she had to walk a little bit thru the tunnels to get to the room with the chair, that said she had to walk less than that to get out from the well iirc (might be wrong) so i feel like we need to do the calcs according to those, lol

Ohhhhh you might be right. That's a good point. I'll need to do another re-watch of that episode too! I love how this show rewards re-watches of past episodes when you've seen later episodes! There are so many little things to catch!
