20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Never Knew About Lost

4. The Inhaler 'Mystery' Was Solved In Season 3

ABC

Before the final season Cuse and Lindelof warned fans they wouldn'€™t be able to answer every single mystery, joking that we€™'d never find out what happened to Sharon'€™s inhaler (it went missing in Season 1 and Sawyer initially took the blame).

When it became apparent that was one of the mysteries they actually did answer, fans were conflicted; that Comic-Con panel became a little more funny, but why had a throwaway joke taken precedence over some serious dangling threads?

What made it worse was that the writers had already answered the question of what happened to the inhaler years before; Exposé was originally meant to have Nikki and Paulo find the inhaler lying on the ground, but it was cut. Now we wish the scene had been kept in; that way we might have found out who was actually in that damned outrigger.
