After the storm


Why did Ted and Chuck not get back into their normal clothes? It's the first thing I would have done...

reply

They wanted to hurry to explore the area

Why?

Wouldn't the importance of clothing in _THAT_ particular place and situation override any RUSH they might have or feel? I mean, they're basically in a mental institution that's located completely ISOLATED from the rest of the world. Anyone suddenly treating them as patients would be the worst thing that could ever happen to them.

Wearing the detective clothes would also let them psychologically feel like they're not only different from people on the island, but also that they're in authority and superior to the others, which would bring confidence and so on.

I would like to know what kind of 'hurry' can trump all this...so please elaborate.

by the time they got dressed, the guards might have gotten things under control, and their ability to explore the area would be hindered
