* What if Jin is the one who speaks English and is trying to run away? I don’t know why he’d want to do this in this scenario, but I think it’s possible.

* I’m going to say Desmond is on the plane, even though no one else saw him. I’m still on the fence, but that’s the way I’m leaning. For what it’s worth, he was wearing a brown suit and the person seated next to Jack when Jack got up to save Charlie was wearing a gray suit. But my thoughts are that it could have been a stand in for the actor playing Desmond on that day, combined with a continuity error.

* Is it just me, or do we still not know why there is a space between LA and X?

* Last year, after the finale, I was convinced that Jacob was the “good” guy. But after this two-part premiere, I don’t think so. He seems to be painted as the bad guy actually.

The Temple people seemed very afraid of him. As if they were going to feel his wrath if they didn’t do as he instructed.

A few lines that Man In Locke delivered also have be believing this, such as, “I’m disappointed in all of you,” possibly meaning that he’s disappointed that they blindly followed Jacob and never noticed that he was indeed the bad guy. Also, he responded to Ben’s calling him a monster simply by stating, “there’s no need to resort to name calling.” It was primarily the delivery of his lines that led me to believe he’s the good guy. He seemed so sincere and caring. Hearing “Nice to finally see you out of those chains, Richard” the second time around, it seems as if he actually means it. I know he responds by knocking him out, but it could have been for his own good, ala the way Richard did that to Eloise back in the 70’s. Finally, “I want to go home” plants the seed that all he wants is to go back where he belongs, but Jacob was keeping him from doing so, much like Ben did to Juliet in season 3.

* I say Sayid is not Jacob. I have no idea what, or who, he is, but it isn’t Jacob.

* I just realized we finally had a speculative question answered: the four-toed statue was already destroyed in the 70’s, meaning that the problem with pregnancies on the island is likely coming from the detonation of the hydrogen bomb. Now, I suppose one could interpret the statue being decimated at the bottom of the ocean as the hydrogen bomb being responsible, but I say that if it was destroyed identically to the way it is in the original timeline, it must have been destroyed before the hydrogen bomb went off.

And part of me already wants to rewatch lost if only to see all of Smokey’s appearances and put them in the context that it’s MIL/MIB.

Like, why did he attack Seth Norris? Was he expecting Frank Lapidus instead, with Bram/Elana saying that he was a “candidate”?

Can’t wait for this week’s episode. Am already watching Tabula Rasa and still have What Kate Did to go before Tuesday night.

I came up with the following idea, and I REALLY hope this is what’s going to happen:

I’ve been thinking that what I would love to have happen is that once the final minute of LOST airs, we immediately feel the need to re-watch the entire series because something happens that changes the context and reality of all we have seen over the last six years. What I’ll call a “Fight Club moment”

What if…

What if season six is all about course-correction. But not just the kind of course correction where our LA_X Losties make their way back to the island to meet up with our regulars.

LA_X is set in 2004. The current island time is 2007.

I believe that this season will not have our LA_X castaways meeting up with the island in 2007. I believe that what happens throughout this season will get our LA_X’ers to become the people we meet on the island right after the plane crash in 2004.

Why do I think this?

“Nothing is irreversible.”

Jack will fix Locke. And that’s the Locke we see wiggle his toes on the island that very first time. Somehow, some way the writers will make it so that it will turn out that our castaways had originally landed in LA all along!!!

The island didn’t fix Locke… Jack did!

I know it seems unfathomable, and I won’t bore you with the details, but if Fight Club can do it, why not LOST! Make us re-watch every episode and catch details that make it so clear the second time around?

I hope this happens.

The whole way through the show its been Jack, Man of Science Vs John, Man of Faith. Now we know the ultimate battle throughout all of time or whater has been Jacob Vs Smokie, but neither can fight eachother directly and need proxies.

So now Smokie has Locke, Jacob’s soul at some point is going to possess Jack, I don’t know how, why or even when, but I do think its going to happen, so that when this great war for the Island we’ve been promised for a while comes along, with whoever lines up on either side, they’ll be lining up behind Jack or Locke

Cuse: I think you should look in there and there will be a couple of clues to the final season that are embedded in that poster. It will make a lot of sense once you’ve actually seen a few episodes of the show.
Lindelof: You should look at the poster and think of the things you’ve seen on the show, and then whatever else is left, that’s a clue for Season 6.

There are supposed to be 2 clues in this poster? Says who? (I’m not doubting you, this is just the first I’ve ever heard of it–curious to know if that is true or not).

The reason I ask is, uhh, did anyone notice that there are two Sayids in it? Given what we saw in the end of LA X Pt. 2, I think that might be telling.
