Desmond makes some sense because he's the Constant and he has sailed to the island before. Perhaps Widmore needed Desmond to finally find the Island again. The Island does have a sort of pull on Desmond, doesn't it?

Hopefully they tell us how Widmore was finally able to find the Island again. I'd guess that Desmond plays a role in that.

I wouldn't rule Walt out either.
It could also be Daniel Faraday, time traveling from some time in his past. He'd be good at finding the island again.

That is definitely another possibility. Plus, he has a connection to Widmore due to Widmore's funding of his past research.

But would he need to be locked up? Desmond would because I don't think he wants to go back to the island.

Isn't Faraday Widmore's son?
 
Great point.... Based on your point I now believe that Desmond is locked up on the Sub.

I belive it is Micheal that's locked up, because I read somewhere that the writers said we would see Micheal come back this season, and there only seven shows left.
 
^^^^ I mean, that's possible, but Michael is so far removed from the plot, I'm having a hard time thinking of what role he would play at this point. His storyline seems to be played out....

Yes, I believe he is, isn't he?

Perhaps another reason he wouldn't need to be locked up.....
 
Maybe the lock is to protect the person inside, not to confine them. :cool:

I'm curious which of you Lost fans watch each episode more than once. I watch them once so my comments here are based on what I noticed and what I remember. I don't replay the shows to study the little clues, but I get the feeling that some of you do.

I watch every episode 3 times essentially. Live on Tuesdays, watch it again on the weekend since we DVR'd it. Watch it again with the enhanced version an hour before the new one airs.

At least three per epsisode, between season 3 and 4, i re watched them, between season 4-5 and 5-6
 
Wait what, no. Farraday is dead. No way in Heaven he can be inside that Sub.


In present time, he's dead. At the end of 2009, he time travelled back to 1970ish, and died there. That was his present. So, he never lived past 2009....I guess, if I explained this correctly.

I believe you are correct. I think it is Desmond.
 
I would say it's either Walt or Faradays Mom. She was the one who maintained the contraption in the Church... Who better?

I don't really care either way at this point. I do believe Walt had a bigger role to play in this whole game.

We still don't know who is running the island and setting the rules for Jacob and MIB.

Those apparitions are part of something bigger and I suspect they will be the final surprise in the series finale. Flocke was floored when he found that Sawyer could see the kid.

It's funny, but a bunch of those little details that we were craving an explanation for don't seem so important anymore.
 
Next weeks show... based on the previews at the end of last night show. MIB (Locke) will go to each of the 6 candidates and offer them a deal. He cannot leave the island until all the candidates are dead. He cannot kill the candidates unless they become corrupted. So he will try to win them over and get them to (use their free will) to corrupt themselves.

If killing Jacob allowed him to leave the island... he would already have left. He needs all the candidates dead too... then he can leave. If any of the candidates survives to take Jacobs place he could grab the MIB from where every in the world MIB might be hiding and put him back on the island and put the cork back in the bottle.

I asked myself why did the smoke monster kill Mr Eko? This is from the lostpedia:

However, Eko found that his brother's body was no longer in the plane. Eko saw Yemi once more appearing in dirty clothing and chased him into an open field. There, Eko confessed that he had not sinned to his brother. Eko stated that he did not ask for the life that he was given, but it had been given nonetheless. And with it, he did the best he could. Eko also mentioned his sacrifice for Yemi when they were young.


Eko delivers his last message before his death. ("The Cost of Living")
However, what appeared to be Yemi announced that he was not Eko's brother. Again, the person who appeared like Yemi disappeared into the jungle, with Eko in hot pursuit. ("The Cost of Living")
The Monster then appeared and advanced threateningly while Eko began to recite the 23rd Psalm, as before. This time, however, it attacked him, beating him into trees and then slamming him into the ground. Locke found the brutally beaten Eko who, before he passed away, whispered into Locke's ears. If listened to closely Eko can be heard faintly saying "I saw the devil". Sayid asked what Eko’s final words were, to which Locke replied, "We're next." ("The Cost of Living")
 
I know what's behind the door.
It's a zombie chair. You sit on it thinking it's a chair and then bam. It's a zombie chair.
I can only watch episodes once. I've got a good eye for details and I pick it all up on the first watch. Though I'm rewatching it from the start to see how everything all connects together - and it does. Very much so!
 
1. In Season 1, Claire saw a psychic who told her that when he saw her on the first visit, he saw something "blurry" and that "blurry" is bad. Smoke is "blurry."

2. On her second visit to the psychic, he tells her that, "It's crucial that you yourself raise the child. This child parented by anyone else, anyone other than you. Danger surrounds this baby. Your nature, your spirit, your goodness must be an influence in the development of this child. There is no happy life. Not for this child. Not without you. There can't be another. You must not allow another to raise your baby. The baby needs your protection. Great danger will befall." The psychic is forseeing that Aaron will become the black smoke monster. Luckily, Jack created the flash sideways by setting off the bomb and created a reality where Aaron is raised by Claire.

3. The smoke monster in Locke's body protects Kate from Claire and goes out of his way to comfort her. He feels love and tenderness for her because she is his mother.

4. The smoke monster in Locke's body explains to Kate that his mother was crazy and that resulted in "growing pains, which could have been avoided had things been different." Kate asks why he's telling her this and he explains because "now Aaron has a crazy mom too."

5. The smoke monster, in Locke's body, took care of Claire for the three years she was alone on the island because she is his mother and he loves her.

6. The smoke monster spares Kate's life several times throughout the series because she is his adoptive mother and he loves her as well.

7. The smoke monster lies to Claire telling her the Others took her baby, rather than Kate, because he loves Kate (his adoptive mother) and doesn't want Claire to hurt her.

Blah, blah, blah.....

Skinny I have been pondering your scenario above about Aaron being Smoke Monster and Claire being SM's Mom because of the crazy Mom comments that Man in Locke mentioned. I like it actually but I don't buy it all the way. I am curious what you say about the fact that in season one when Claire was still pregnant we saw the SM?

Classic LOST misdirection. You think so hard about something the way that it's presented to you, and you totally ignore viewing it in a different light, simply because your'e already so overwhelmed with it all. I think this is possible. Widmore is protecting who/whatever is in the room, not keeping him/her/it locked in there against their will.

I'm curious which of you Lost fans watch each episode more than once. I watch them once so my comments here are based on what I noticed and what I remember. I don't replay the shows to study the little clues, but I get the feeling that some of you do.

I usually watch when it airs, then I read this thread and Lostpedia for a couple days, then I rewatch it and look for everything I missed. The only episode I've watched 3 times this season was Dr. Linus.

I watched the previous 5 seasons through twice right before this season started. My favorite part of this show is the references to earlier events, and the foreshadowing, so I wanted to make sure I had caught everything there was to catch.
