Richard Characteristics

the mysteries surrounding his ageless character were heavily discussed among the fan community.^[1] Although being present in scenes from the 1950s to the 2000s, Richard does not appear to age. In "The Man Behind the Curtain" Ben says "You do remember birthdays, don't you?" to Richard. This was deliberately written ambiguously...... When asked at the 2008 Comic-Con International how old Richard is, lead Lost actor Matthew Fox guessed 125, which Lost producer Damon Lindelof said was wrong.^[2] When Locke asks Juliet how old Richard is in "Jughead", she simply replies "old".^[3]

His role in the Others is that of a consigleure something something Carlton Cuse: Alpert is the consigliere to the leader and as such, plays a very important role in influencing the events of the Others lives. [Shot of Juliet leaving the Mittelos Bioscience room. ("Not in Portland")]

Damon Lindelof: He's sort of the Dick Cheney of the island. That is to say he was kind of in power over Bush Senior and now instead he has no aspirations to be the president of island himself. world of the others

Richard Development

Richard shares his name with Richard Alpert, an Eastern-influenced writer and figure from the 1960s and 70s.^[4] Lost producer Damon Lindelof confirmed that Richard is named after someone famous, but did not elaborate.^[5] Nestor Carbonell was originally contracted to guest star in "Not in Portland", with the possibility of the role becoming recurring.^[6] After the producers enjoyed his performance,^[7] his contract was extended to five further appearances in season three.^[6] During production of "The Man Behind the Curtain", Carbonell shot the pilot for CBS drama Cane.^[7]

Damon Lindelof: Here's a case where we cast Nestor to play Richard Alpert; he appeared in the first episode; we really loved him; wanted him to be sort of Ben's second in command; started ramping up his storyline; obviously dropping several hints in Ben's flashback episode, "The Man Behind the Curtain", about how long Alpert had been on the Island, and that Alpert, in fact, was not one of the members of the DHARMA Initiative, but pre-dated them, and is sort of an original Other, as it were. But around that time that we were in production on that episode, Nestor went off to shoot the pilot for Cane. And Carlton and I were like, "Well you know, it's a pilot; you never know what's gonna happen." You know...

Carlton Cuse: But basically, you know, this is what happens. Real life intervenes when you're doing television

Carlton Cuse: So you know, what we do in this sort of circumstance is we've got Nestor sort of parked; and you know, we hope to get back to his character, but it's gonna really depend on whether that show goes someplace or not; and in the meantime, we have some other story plans, but we just... we've kind of... we've parked him until that situation gets resolved.

Damon Lindelof: You know, and the reality is, is we have a little bit of leeway on Cane, which is that it's produced by ABC Television Studios, even though it's on CBS, and hopefully maybe that... if we're gonna use Richard, hopefully that will give us an opportunity to, you know to... to...

Carlton Cuse: Get him out for an episode, or something.

Damon Lindelof: ...get him for an episode or two.

Damon Lindelof: But obviously, our plan for Alpert is a little more extensive than that. But as Carlton said, we just had to park it for now. podcast sept 21 2007

Recurring guest star Nestor Carbonell appeared in seven episodes of Lost's third season as Richard Alpert and the mysteries surrounding his ageless character were heavily discussed among the fan community.^[1] While producing the final episodes of the third season, Carbonell was cast in a starring role on the new CBS series Cane. The writers modified their original story plan for the third season in anticipation for Carbonell's potential unavailability. Despite Carbonell's willingness to return to Lost, CBS president Nina Tassler ruled out another Lost guest appearance.^[8] Cane was canceled during the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, freeing Carbonell from his contract with CBS.^[9] Executive producer Carlton Cuse cited this as an unintended positive consequence of the strike.^[10]

Rose Henderson and Bernard Nadler are recurring fictional characters on the ABC television series Lost played by L. Scott Caldwell and Sam Anderson respectively. Despite Rose slowly dying from cancer, they decide to get married anyway, and visit a faith healer on their honeymoon in Australia. When Bernard visits the restroom during the return flight, the plane splits in half, with the two halves crashing on different parts of an island in the South Pacific. The couple reunite midway through season two, and Rose reveals the Island has healed her. After time travelling in season five they separate from the remaining survivors and build a cabin near the ocean to live in.

Originally the story of a woman who is separated from her husband when the plane crashes was going to be used for Kate, but when Kate's role in the series changed the producers kept that story for Rose. Much of the couple's story prior to the plane crash was based on the events of Caldwell's life; she married her husband even though she was dying. Due to Caldwell and Anderson having other acting commitments, the writers found it find time where both actors could appear together in the show, resulting in neither character featuring in most of season three. Critics reacted positively when they finally returned in the season's penultimate episode "Greatest Hits".

Arc

Prior to the crash

Rose Henderson meets her husband Bernard Nadler when her car becomes stuck in a snowbank one night.^[11] After dating for five months, Bernard proposes to her, which prompts Rose to reveal she is sick with an illness that went into remission but has now returned; she only has a year left to live.^[11] The two marry regardless, and on their honeymoon in Australia, Bernard takes Rose to a faith healer named Isaac.^[11] Despite her initial protests, she agrees to see him.^[11] Isaac is unable to heal her, but Rose tells Bernard that she has been, in order to stop him from wasting any more of the time that they had left together.^[11] A brief flashback during "Pilot: Part 1" shows Rose alone the plane journey home, after Bernard leaves to use one of the restrooms.^[12] Whilst he is away, the plane suddenly hits turbulence, and splits apart in midair, with the fuselage and tail-section landing at opposite ends of an island.^[12]^[13]

After the crash

Upon impact, Rose lies unconscious on the beach with the fuselage survivors, but is eventually revived by Jack (Matthew Fox).^[12] During the first few days on the Island, Rose is in a state of shock, and keeps herself away from the other survivors, attracting the attention of Jack.^[14] While Jack believes that Bernard is dead, Rose is adamant that he is still alive.^[14] After Claire (Emilie de Ravin) is kidnapped by the Island's original inhabitants (known as Others), Rose comforts Charlie (Dominic Monaghan), who believes it is his fault and encourages him not to lose hope.^[15]

During season two it is shown that Bernard lands with the tail-section survivors on the other side of the Island.^[16] After the Others invade the tail section survivors' camp, Bernard finds himself as one of the few remaining survivors.^[16] They move inland, and discover a building known as the Arrow station, where they find an assortment of items, including a radio.^[16] Bernard uses the radio, and makes contact with Boone (Ian Somerhalder), one of the fuselage survivors, but Ana Lucia switches it off, dismissing it as a trick by the Others.^[16] After three of the fuselage survivors, Michael (Harold Perrineau), Jin (Daniel Dae Kim) and Sawyer (Josh Holloway) meet the tail-section survivors, they reassure Bernard that Rose is alive and well.^[17] They all set off to migrate with the fuselage survivors.^[17] After Ana Lucia accidentally kills one of the fuselage survivors, Shannon (Maggie Grace), she refuses to allow anyone to go to the fuselage survivors' beach camp, but they eventually press on without her; Bernard is then reunited with Rose.^[18] In "S.O.S.", Bernard concocts a plan to create a giant S.O.S. sign on the beach, but Rose discourages him from spreading false hope among the survivors, and refuses to take part.^[11] She confesses that she was not healed in Australia, but has now been healed by the Island, so fears that her illness will return should she leave the Island.^[11]

Near the end of season three, in "Greatest Hits", Jack announces his plan to rig their tents with dynamite to prevent the Others from kidnapping anyone else, so Rose and Bernard assist by tying lengths of wire together.^[19] Rose grows concerned when Bernard volunteers to stay behind and detonate the dynamite.^[19] She reluctantly allows him to take part, but grows angry at Jack when the plan backfires later that night, and Bernard is captured by the Others.^[20] He is soon rescued by Sawyer, Hurley (Jorge Garcia) and Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell), who kill the Others holding him hostage.^[20] Rose watches on as Jack contacts a nearby freighter that he believes has came to rescue them.^[20] In the season four premiere "The Beginning of the End", the survivors reunite in the jungle, where Locke (Terry O'Quinn) proposes they hide from the freighter crew, as he believes them to be dangerous.^[21] Bernard allows Rose to decide whether to follow Jack or Locke, and she chooses Jack.^[21] When the people who arrived from the freighter use morse code to contact the boat, Bernard, who also knows morse code, reveals that they are lying about the message and that there is in fact no one coming to rescue the survivors.^[22] Jack falls ill and needs his appendix removed, so Rose and Bernard help with the operation: Rose prepares the table and Bernard helps to knock him out. Rose is confused to why Jack fell ill when the island normally heals sickness.^[23]

After Ben Linus (Michael Emerson), the leader of the Others, causes the Island move, Rose and Bernard are amongst the survivors who begin to jump to different periods of time.^[22] After they lose the rest of the survivors, Rose and Bernard build a cabin in the forest and decide to retire.^[24] They purposely avoid contact with remaining survivors because they wish to live their remaining days in peace.^[24]

Characteristics

IGN described the characters as "the unofficial heart of the show, providing a middle-aged perspective to the events the younger characters are at the front-and-center of".^[25] Javier Grillo-Marxuach, one of Lost's writers during seasons one and two, thought Bernard is "a guy who is a little bit older and probably not as able to do the kind of action/adventure that a lot of people do on this island, but he really carries off what he's doing with a dignity and a gravity that I think really sells what that character's been through".^[26] Ann Oldenburg of USA Today described the pair as "Bernard, the scruffy old survivor from the tail section of the downed Lost plane, with his calm and loving wife, Rose".^[27]

Development

In the initial plans for the series, Jack was going to die midway through the first episode, and then Kate would emerge as the leader of the survivors. Kate's backstory was that her husband went to the bathroom shortly before the plane split in mid-air, and on the Island she would remain adamant that he was alive. However the producers quickly changed their minds about Jack's death, making him the leader and creating a new backstory for Kate. They liked Kate's original backstory though, so they used it for Rose.^[28] In a deleted scene from the second season, it was revealed that Rose had a daughter, but she "passed".^[29] The canonicity of this scene has not been addressed.

The Lost producers thought the audience would expect Rose's husband to be black, so they wanted to surprise the audience and made him be white.^[27] They expected the audience to assume Mr. Eko, the only black man in the tail-section survivors, was Bernard.^[30] L. Scott Caldwell was unaware of their plans and had been picturing her own husband, a tall black man, when playing the scenes, so was surprised but not shocked when she discovered her on-screen husband was white.^[27] She and Sam Anderson deliberately did not meet before their reunion scene as they wanted the reunion scene to be as authentic as possible.^[27] In a scene after Rose and Bernard's reunion, Hurley comments that he did not expect Rose's husband to be white, before Jack quickly changes the subject.^[31] The producers felt it was important to address that the couple are mixed race, and that Hurley was saying what the audience would be thinking.^[27] Caldwell agreed with them and thought it would be odd if the issue was not addressed.^[27] Anderson like the fact that Hurley brought up the issue, but also like that Jack did not pay any attention.^[27]

The couple's backstory was originally planned to be told during season three;^[27] however during season two, the Lost writers wanted to tell the story of one of the background characters of the show.^[32] As Rose and Bernard are the most prominent of these characters are Rose and Bernard, and fans were keen to learn their backstory, they decided to do an episode focussing on the couple.^[32] Caldwell's husband was going through health problems during the shooting of the first season, which was the inspiration for Rose's flashbacks in "S.O.S.".^[33] Following this episode, Caldwell did not think Rose's healing had anything to do with the Island and stated "If she is cured, it's because she's willed it herself".^[34] Other than archive footage in "Exposé", Rose and Bernard do not feature in season three until the penultimate episode "Greatest Hits". The writers cited Caldwell and Sam Anderson's other projects as a reason for their absence.^[35] Additionally, it was feared that fans would complain if they appeared, when many actors with star billing had received limited screentime in the early third season.^[35] The writers also do not want to have the couple on the show if they are just going to be standing in the background; they want to have Rose and Bernard in the show with interesting storylines.^[36]

Reception

Chris Carabott from IGN found the conversation where Rose insists Bernard is alive "touching".^[37] TV Guide's Matt Roush called Caldwell "terrific", and hoped the producers would "find some use for her again".^[38] Entertainment Weekly's Michael Slezak was surprised when he discovered Bernard is white, although he was unsure why.^[39] Mac Slocum, senior editor of Filmfodder.com, thought it was "super-emotional" when Bernard asked the survivors if Rose was still alive.^[40] C. K. Sample III, of AOL's TV Squad, liked "S.O.S." because it showed "two characters' back stories which we've all been longing to see", comparing their relationship to that of Jack and Kate (Evangeline Lilly), and finding Rose's meeting with Isaac "particularly interesting".^[41] Lost producer Leonard Dick called Rose and Bernard "much-beloved characters", and thought they did an "excellent job" in "S.O.S.".^[33] Jen Chaney from The Washington Post thought it was "touching" and "poignant" that Rose's backstory was based on Caldwell's real life.^[42] Noel Murray of The A.V. Club conceded that whilst learning Rose and Bernard's backstory was entertaining, it wasted time and slowed down the pace of the storytelling.^[43]

Rick Porter from Zap2it was pleased when Rose and Bernard returned in "Greatest Hits".^[44] After this reappearance, Patrick Day from the Los Angeles Times hoped they would featured more often, saying "If they brought these two back ... just to kill them, it will be anti-climactic".^[45] Entertainment Weekly's Jeff Jensen called their return a "sight-for-sore-eyes".^[46] Rose's line from the third season finale, "If you say 'live together, die alone' to me, Jack, I'm going to punch you in your face", won the E! Tater Top Award for "Best Line".^[47] Maureen Ryan from the Chicago Tribune thought she was speaking for the fans with this line, and hoped Rose and Bernard would feature more often in future episodes.^[48] The couple were ranked twelfth in IGN's list of the top fifteen characters prior to season four.^[25] They were described as "the unofficial heart of the show" and noted every appearance made by them was a welcome one.^[25] The editors from IGN also liked Rose's "live together, die alone" line, which they called "both surprising comic relief and the stuff of solid character development; characters like Rose remember and evolve, even if they spend most of their time on the sidelines".^[25] Erin Martell from AOL's TV Squad thought Rose's role in "Something Nice Back Home" was "awesome", because she asked all the questions fans have been asking.^[49]

Variety's Cynthia Littleton was pleased when the couple returned in the fifth season finale, having been absent for most of the season.^[50] She speculated that they are the Adam and Eve skeletons found by the survivors early in season one,^[50] which Jeff Jensen from Entertainment Weekly also suspected.^[51] James Poniewozik of Time also liked their appearance in "The Incident".^[52] Chris Carabott of IGN "love[d]" this scene as the characters were no longer watching the island mysteries, but had became part of them.^[53] He said "Their outlook is refreshing" and hoped they would feature more often in season six.^[53] Alan Sepinwall from The Star-Ledger called it "one of the best, most moving scenes of the finale".^[54] Noel Murray from The A.V. Club thought the scene was useful in both practical and thematic senses, as it allowed the characters to leave the show, but also it caused him to question whether opting out was "the voice of reason, or the voice of evil".^[55] The Huffington Post's Jay Glatfelter thought their decision not to participate "all but solidified them as the 'Adam and Eve' from the caves".^[56] "Words [could not] describe" how pleased Maureen Ryan from the Chicago Tribune was with Rose and Bernard's scene, and she agreed with Rose's sentiment "It's always something with you people".^[57]
