Sawyer Jumps

I have to admit that after I saw Sawyer with the members of the Oceanic Six in helicopter sneak peek, and then Lapidus called for throwing off extra weight, that this thought crossed my mind. Now I’m just sad!!

What would happen if we threw some of our favorite characters from differing television shows together? Well, the sparks would fly I’m sure!

Tom (from Ugly Betty News) and I put together this what if to see what might happen if James “Sawyer” Ford [Lost] and Amanda Sommers [Ugly Betty] found themselves on the island together…

How They Met:
The two were both on flight Oceanic 815. Sawyer was heading back to the United States after being deported from Australia. Amanda was returning from a vacation to Sydney, one paid by Wilhelmina after Amanda blackmailed her about the secret trip to Mexico for a butt-lift! Sawyer found her slightly annoying and gave Amanda the nickname “Duchess” after she made the statement that she wants to marry a Duke since a “a prince would be too much pressure”. Amanda tends to go for the guys who have no interest in her, so Sawyer’s constant insults intrigued her.

Character Profile
James “Sawyer” Ford

Actor: Josh Holloway

On Flight 815: Sawyer was returning to the United States because he was being deported from Australia.

Profession: Con Artist

Prior to the Crash:
Sawyer was born as James Ford. When he was little his parents were the victim of a con by a person named Sawyer. As a result his father killed his mother and then himself. Sawyer grew up and took on the name of the con man as he became a con artist himself. In the process he also vows to avenge his parents by finding and killing the true Sawyer.

During one of his cons against a woman named Cassidy, she immediately knows what he is doing and asks him to teach her his profession. Together they decide to attempt to pull a “long con” after Cassidy reveals she received $600,000 from her ex-husband. Sawyer turns the con on Cassidy and tells her to run, giving her a bag full of money. He reveals that he knew about her settlement and that a car is waiting outside; he will be killed if he doesn’t bring the money to the car. As Cassidy takes off with the bag of fake money, Sawyer enters the house with the real money and deposits it for his partner to collect.
