Full Name: Walt Lloyd Reason for trip: Returning to the US with his biological father Michael Dawson. Profession: Student Island relationship: Son of Michael Walt Lloyd is Michael Dawson's 10 year old son (born August 24, 1994), named after Michael's father. Walt's mother was Susan Lloyd, an attorney, who rejected marriage with his father, a construction worker and part-time artist. His mother split up with Michael while Walt was still a baby, and moved with him to Amsterdam for a plum international law job. Just before Walt's second birthday, Susan married her boss, Brian Porter. Later, while he was recovering in a hospital from a car accident, she visited Michael and insisted he give up parental rights to his son, so that Brian could adopt him. Nine years later, Brian tracked down Michael, and told him that Susan had passed away in Australia due to a "blood disorder." He pleaded with Michael to take custody of the boy and gave him tickets for the flight to Sydney. Brian revealed that he had not wanted to be Walt's adoptive father, and that he was scared of the boy: "There's something about him... Sometimes when he's around things happen. He's different somehow." Unusual occurrences have appeared around him. Just prior to his mother's death, Walt was studying from a book about native birds, and wanted Brian to look at the entry for the Australian Bronze cuckoo. When Brian ignored him, Walt became insistent, and a bird suddenly smashed into the window and died. On the Island, when Walt had been looking through a comic book with a picture of a polar bear rather than listening to his father, Michael took it away from him. Later, in anger, Michael threw the comic into the fire, and Walt ran off, only to be attacked shortly afterwards by a polar bear in the jungle. Walt and John Locke established a friendship shortly after arriving on the island. Locke had seen something special in the boy, and told his father as such: "Maybe you haven't spent enough time with him to see it, but he's different... As long as we're here, I think Walt should be allowed to realize his potential." This has led to Michael mistrusting Locke's intentions with the boy. In Born to Run, without having any apparent knowledge of "the hatch," Walt appeared to exhibited some form of psychometric clairvoyance: after touching Locke's arm, he tells him ominously: "Don't open it. Don't open that thing." During the episode In Translation Walt secretly set fire to the initial raft that Michael had been building. Locke had been the only person on the island who realized this. The day before the second raft was set to be launched, Walt confessed to his father that he was responsible for burning the first raft, because he didn't want to leave the island. With a sudden realization, Michael told him that they didn't have to go, but Walt replied solemnly, "Yes, we do." Walt has a yellow Labrador retriever named Vincent, which had been owned by Brian. Before leaving the island on the raft, Walt gave Vincent to Shannon, to help her to cope with the loss of Boone. While on the raft, in Exodus: Part 3, Michael, Walt, and the others run into a ship, though instead of rescue, the crew of the other ship kidnapped Walt and left Michael, Jin, and Sawyer in the sea. all info from www.lost-media.com
