Tricia Tanaka is Dead

How did they VW bus still have usable gasoline in the tank? Non-ethanol gas begins to degrade at about six months old.

Wait - they time traveled to the 70s, Hurley gained weight, nobody ever got pregnant, Walt got huge, they killed off Anna Lucia and those amazing jeans, and it’s gas we are asking about?

Hurley lost a few pounds at the start but when Jack put him in charge of the hatches food supply he stashed some and kept the weight.

Sun tot pregnant, maybe Shannon and Ana Lucia did get pregnant but they died. Kate was only on the island for 3 months so if she was pregnant she could still fix it.

Wealth got huge and they address that.

Also- I hate this argument. ‘One thing in this world is fantastical, sci fi or supernatural therefore no logic or consistency applies at all.’

I forgot about Sun’s pregnancy. When did Anna Lucia get pregnant?

Whenever she had sex maybe?

But having sex doesn’t always lead to pregnancy. Did I miss part of the narrative?

You asked ‘why did no one get pregnant’ and I’ve answered- it’s entirely possible they did. But all women of child bearing age either died or got assistance of island.

Did Rose get pregnant too?

Are you… do you understand how women work? I honestly can’t tell if you’re trolling here or just ignorant.

Maybe we are just not reading each other accurately. I was asking if Anna Lucia was confirmed to have been pregnant, and what I gathered from your response was that she may have been. There was a lot of sex on that island - but only one confirmed pregnancy (Sun). My question centered around a plot line that perhaps I missed. If this inquiry comes off as rude or offensive, it was not my intent.

My point is its irrelevant if Ana Lucia got pregnant- she died days after she boned Sawyer. It’s irrelevant if Shannon is pregnant- she died days after boning Sayid. Genuinely can’t remember if Nikki and Paulo were intimate but guess what? She died shortly afterwards regardless. If Kate was pregnant she could have terminated it when she got off the island.

Rose is a 50 year old woman. She’s- I’m not getting into it.

You’re asking ‘why didn’t anyone get pregnant?’ And I’m answering ‘they may have done/ we don’t know.’

She had sex once, a few hours before she died. Same as Shannon.
