Geez these kids are constantly moody! Look at the pics! SMILE! --Lewis-Talk-Contribs 16:12, 5 September 2007 (PDT)
- They have just lost their mother... and their trapped on an island far away from home... and they're kids. If it was me, I'd be moody too. -- Lost Soul talk contribs 01:22, 6 September 2007 (PDT)
I've seen the pics of the kids on set. They aren't moody in real life and that shows they are pretty good actors. If you google the kids pics will come up of them where they are smiling. These kids must be having such a great time man! I know I would.--I'm lost 9:45, 5 March 2010
Name spelling?Edit
Do we have any official confirmation for the spelling of this character's name? "The Other Woman-Enhanced" spelled it as Zach. Robert K S (talk) 07:06, 15 March 2008 (PDT)
- Is there a link where I can see what you're looking at? Robert K S (talk) 11:07, 15 March 2008 (PDT)
- Lostpedia isn't an official source. So far we have a number of official sources for "Zach" but I haven't been able to find any for "Zack". Robert K S (talk) 12:28, 15 March 2008 (PDT)
- Here is the official press release, that lists his name as "Zack": http://lost-media.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=1332. But since there are so many errors in the press releases, and the enhanced version of "Confirmed Dead" provided information about Faraday's mystery woman, something only a script could do, I have to believe that these enhanced episodes are more accurate than the press releases.

- In the enhanced version of LA X, Parts 1 & 2, they spell it "Zach". In the enhanced version of Sundown, they spell it "Zack". In most of the official press releases, it's also spelled "Zack". But it's also spelled "Zach" on things such as trading cards. --SethFlight815 03:17, March 10, 2010 (UTC)
- It's been spelled both ways in the end credits of different season 6 episodes. The end credits of "Recon" spell it ZACK but it is spelled ZACH in the end credits of "LA X" and "Sundown". LOST-Kuzak 21:06, March 18, 2010 (UTC)
- In the enhanced episode of "Recon" the box pops up talking about the kids when they appear on-screen. Zach's name appears twice. The first time, it is spelled Zack and the second time it is spelled Zach. And those 2 versions of the name appear within a few seconds of each other. Haha... --SethFlight815 23:04, March 27, 2010 (UTC)
Based on the above discussion, it appears that even official sources don't know whether his name is spelled "Zach" or "Zack". So then the question is, how do we handle it in the article? Currently the spelling continually switches back and forth throughout the article, which looks bad. I think we need to just pick one spelling, mention upfront that it may also be spelled the other way, and stick with the one spelling. (For example, "Zach (also spelled Zack)... blah blah blah... Zach... yada yada yada... Zach... and so on and so forth...") --Celebok 04:13, September 11, 2010 (UTC)
- You could argue that both are kinda correct, since "Zack" and "Zach" are both short for "Zachary", which is likely his birth name. Lost Encyclopedia lists it as Zack. Although the book is quite prone to typos, I'm inclined to use it as a tie-breaker. Zack is also far more common in general and is the name both spellings are listed under in Wikipedia. --Cap'n Calhoun 17:18, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
- I agree on using it as a tie-breaker. So I guess we go with Zack. --Celebok 16:16, November 23, 2010 (UTC)
Parents killed? Edit
A caption in "LA X, Part 2-Enhanced" stated that their parents were killed on the flight; however, nothing in Emma's dialogue in "The Other 48 Days" really indicates that her parents weren't on the flight. She she says "She's meeting us in Los Angeles." That could mean the kids and parents were seated in different parts of the airplane and were supposed to reunite in L.A.
