I think it's fair to assume Wendy Pearson plays the same character in alternate time lines. A show may well choose the same actress to play multiple minor characters, but:
- These characters are both L.A. medical professionals
- I see nothing about Wendy Pearson that should typecast her to playing medical professionals
- It seems typical Lost juxtaposition for her to care for Desmond after Ben injures him and Ben after Desmond injures him.
- We listed Suzanne Krull's two characters as Lynn Karnoff despite no further evidence linking them.
- If Lost wanted to portray the two characters as one, there was no additional way they could tell us. They hadn't given Pearson's original character a name, so they couldn't give the nurse the same name. --- Balk Of Fame ♪ talk 17:28, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
