Lost season 6 with spoilers beware

I sense a St. Elsewhere moment here!!! It was all a dream! :confused

Why do I have a feeling that the whole story is actually this..

What we are seeing in the flashes they are showing now is actually REAL, everything on the island is FICTION. Someone that knows all the characters in the FLASHES we are seeing now is using them as inspiration for a story.

Thats why it only ends once, everything else is progress. Thats why names are scratched off on the cave roof, those are other characters in the story the author wasn't satisfied with in his first drafts and removed from the book?

Sounds wacky I know and I don't totally believe it but it wouldn't surprise me if thats what happens. I don't totally believe it but its something that came into my head watching last night. A "What if?"
 
Not surprised at all when "Smocke" walks in as Claire's 'friend'. I don't remember Rouseau ever mentioning a 'friend', so there goes my theory that Claire is the new Rouseau crazy woman of the island.

Since Jack has a son now, and didn't in the 'real' time line, the island/Jacob must have been influencing that part of his life... which, for the first time in the history of the show, makes Jack's angry/distrustful attitude seem justified.

Someone messed with him and fixed it so he didn't have a son? Yeah, break the mirrors, that's just not right. :(

Wonder who's coming... and what happened to Sawyer since Smocke wasn't with him.
 
Was Hurley's "dude, what if we time traveled back to dinosaur days and these skeletons are us", lip service to the fans who have been asking that all along, or a hint as to what might happen?

A few things I noticed:

  • Hurley was supposed to turn the lighthouse dial to 108 - this is the same number as what the clock would reset to after typing in the code.
  • Sawyer's acting just keeps getting better.
  • Loved Hurley actually addressing the idea that the bodies of "Adam & Eve" might actually be bodies of some of the Losties. This is a leading theory & I love the the writers threw it directly into the show. (I think it's Jack & Kate... but what do I know?)
  • I knew that The Locke-Dressed Monster was Claire's "friend". Interesting though that he somehow convinced her to leave Aaron in the jungle while she calmly chilled out in the cabin with him as the "Christian-Dressed Monster".
  • Interested to know why The Locke-Dressed Monster can't change into anyone else and how what's-her-face knows that.
  • I think that the "someone" Jacob wanted Hurley to lead to the island is Jack. Earlier in the episode, Jack dismisses the island saying that he had been broken and thought the island would fix him. Jack needs his heart & mind to come back to the island (his body is already there).
  • Looking forward to seeing more of "Ben X", the teacher.

I'm still going with Jacob and the other guy being fallen angels and the island is kinda like Eden. And the Temple has the fountain of youth, that's why Richard and the "original others" in the temple haven't aged a day since the Black Rock shipwrecked on the island, and why Sayid was brought back to life, but after Jacob died the true healing powers of the water was altered and that's why it turned dark, since the "white/light" side of the island is gone. I'm also guessing the Asian man was the Captain of the Black Rock and Richard was a prisoner.

The asian man can't have been the captain of or been on the Black Rock. As we saw him last night talking to Jack in the alternate timeline, which means he is from their present.
Also a few episodes ago the asian guy mentioned that he was stolen from his parents just like the children who survived the crash of 815 were.
 
I think turning the lighthouse to 108 was irrelevant. The point was to get Jack there to see what he saw in the mirror. As we left him, he's sitting on a cliff 'thinking about things' which appears to be all that jacob wanted.

Maybe so, but who was #108? Did'nt it say Wallace? Who is Wallace? Walt?, maybe Jacob's last name?...Interesting.

I enjoyed last night's episode. It was very cool to see Hurley and Jack taking a walk about, so to speak like they did in the begining.

I'm curious to see where Sawyer is, and whether he will end up replacing the man in black when all is said and done, and Hurley would likely replace Jacob, as I don't think Jack is up for the task.

I really can't wait to see the Richard centric episode. I bet he was a pirate, and we all know pirates are cool:thumbsup

* Gotta love some of Hurley's quotes last night:
"I'm a big fan of temples and history and Indiana Jones stuff"
"He's dead, turns up wherever he wants ... like Obi-Wan Kenobi"

The two in the cave could be Jacob and the MIB.
MIB did say he was once a man.

I think since they acknowledged the fan theory about the skeletons being Losties that it'll prove to be untrue. Highly unlikely that anything said that blatantly would be a spoiler.
 
My DVR cut out a large section and I didn't see the lighthouse scene. What did they do in the lighthouse? What did Jack See?

If this ends up being a story of the island being the prison to keep dark guy away from the rest of the world, then I liken it to "The Keep" where the nazis invade an old monastery, only to dicover it was mean't to keep something terrible in, that should never be let out. The thing at id trapped is cappable of manipulation, incentive, etc. and If there is a danger of it ever gettign out, a warrior needs to be summoned to prevent it. but I digress
 
Hurley tells Jack to turn the lighthouse mirror system until the setting is "108." Jack then notices that each number has a name associated with it. He stops on his name, and in the mirror he can see the house he grew up in as a child.

When he demands an answer from Hurley about why Jacob has been watching him all his life, Jacob isn't there to provide the answer, so Jack takes a nearby telescope and smashes the mirrors.

As for the skeletons, I'm just glad the writers remembered them. I almost suspected that they'd never be mentioned again.

I caught that! I loved it. Hurley is such a great character, taking in all the weirdness without taking himself too seriously. :D

Naw, right around Season Three when people were accusing them of just making it up as they went along, Team Darlton held up the skeletons as proof that they had a plan for the whole show.

It does look more and more like it's Jacob and Esau in the cave.
 
some things I noticed:

maccutcheon whiskey makes an appearance
jack walking up to the recital the sign said "welcome all candidates".
I think the whole Lighthouse thing was designed to get Jack to disable it. jacob clearly didn't care about #108.


In my opinion the whole episode in claire's hut was a scene in which every character but Jin was played by the MIB. They are all dead and played by the MIB.
Claire died in the rocket blast in Season 4.
The black other guy was just shot and killed. No way he was "faking it".
Locke is of course dead.
That whole scene was perpetrated by the MIB to gain access via Jin to the Temple.



I think what we are watching is the passing of one 'era' on the island. From one protector/smoke monster to the next. The flash backs and sideways and forwards will all fall into one final storyline and it'll end with the start of the next 'era' on the Island.

IE: Jack on the beach watching a ship in the distance, Sawyer coming up and telling him how much he wants to kill him...and so on.

I'm sure in the series finale we will see 'a' conclusion, but not 'the' conclusion.

Sam Malone is still tending bar you know.

I don't know about that.. it was implied that MIB can't change into anyone but Locke anymore. I think Claire is still Claire, but she's obviously been seriously brainwashed by MIB. You may be right about his orchestrating the entire confrontation, though.. he needs a way into the Temple past the ash that they've laid down which otherwise keeps him out.

I honestly wish they'd drop the Locke disguise and let him take on what's apparently his "real" appearance (the one we saw at the end of S5 when he was talking to Jacob).
Especially when we see MIB in flashback later this season, in his other form played by Titus Welliver. It always bugs me when two different actors play the same character, even when there's obvious things like shapeshifting or disguises involved, they should just leave it at one and move on.

Oh, and for the record.. Jacob rulez. I love seeing him still show up. :)
