When orange isn't necessarily orange

[luvinpush]

I haven't ruled anything out although I'm leaning towards orange. However, I did notice several red "hints" in ep. 3. In the scene where Jim is talking to the casino interim manager in the kitchen, his lips look extra red... like he has lipstick on or something... it's not subtle. then there's the extra bright red light of the surveillance camera in the same scene and the word red behind his head in the casino while he's counting cards. There are others, but I'd need to watch ep 3 again to remember because halfway through I started focusing on the orange. I should know better!

There's also a red tint to the flashback scene.

Sorry if anyone's already said this. But, come to think of it, aren't blood oranges both red and orange? It's possible that it could be polychromatic answer here. Whaddaya think?

[luvinpush]

I suppose it's possible although I keep having a hard time with the fact that I was "sure " the clue was just orange until I saw the article a tthe times. Do you think they are trying to throw us off? If you had JUST watched the TV show(which you should be able to get the clue by doing), what do you think the clue would be?

In a post elsewhere, there are some who think the clue might be fire due to the orange AND red hints. I think it's a longshot but... can't rule out anything, I suppose.

I was thinking it might be something like red orange. That's definitely a possibility. Also, on the shipping manifests that the trucker had (forgot his name), several of the amounts were highlighted in red. And speaking of those manifests, did anyone else think those numbers were unreasonably low? There was nothing on there that was more than 5 dollars.

I think someone in an earlier thread said that it probably represented millions.

Ok. That makes a lot more sense. I had been wondering about that. And another thought, what if the color is blood? The oranges are blood oranges, Jim's tatoo left bloodstains on the sheets, and someone from another board said there was a book called "Storm of Oblivion" with blood on the cover.

are we getting through?

[Daemeus]

You refering to Dawn? If so, where are you going with it, DJ?

[Aknot]

Um, Scarlett?

[Daemeus]

Oh, sorry. Had a dense moment there. Okay, Mary. I still ask however, where does that point us? Tons of things point to Mary but everything just hits a dead end from there.

Why does it have to be orange, singular? The Color of OrangeS would solve all the pesky problems with that "of" in the title.

Just to confuse things a little more, there is a quote from William Gibson's[i] Neuromancer[/i]: "The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel."

Any comments?
