Somewhere on the Lost wiki or something, the producers said that no one is dead at all in the island and there isn't any sort of purgatory. So I think that applies to them too. But -seeing- dead people? That messes with me too, though there must be some sort of explanation. As well as Locke seeing Walt.

So Locke's taken over as the main island spiritual leader, or something. Ben seems to have accepted the fact and has resigned himself to following Locke's guidance.
Interesting how Richard never ages, but he's been seen in distant flashbacks before so that's nothing too new. And the hospital orderly guy creeps me out in every scene we see him in. Locke as a teenager was cast really well, it looked a lot like him.
WTF is with Christian Shepherd, I can't even begin to work his whole angle out. And I wonder if Claire knows he's her father. I was hoping for some creepy Jacob scenes, maybe next time.
What do you think is the device on the merc's arm? And the biggest WTF at the end there, they have to move the island?!?!
So many questions, need the next ep now.
I think I know precisely what I mean
when I say it's a schpadoinkle day
I think Claire knows that he's her dad. I'm pretty sure she called him "Dad" when he picked up baby Aaron.
The time difference thing really trips me out. Why is it like that...??
I tried my best...
I knew there was something wrong with Claire... I remember her getting shot and then being all fine. I thought I had watched wrong and dismissed it, but clearly something happened with her on the raid. I think she's dead and that's why the ghost guy kept staring at her.
The Captain being "good" was a surprise to me, too mad he got himself killed because he could've become quite a cool character for a couple more episodes. I still don't know if Ben is no longer the leader... I have a feeling he still is, and is making Locke think he's actually making the decisions; kinda like what Locke did with Hurley. With Ben seemingly in control in the future, this leads me to believe that Ben and Jacob are using Locke for some reason at the moment... since Richard said he was mistaken when he was little, it's possibly because Locke is not Jacob's leader, but can still serve an unknown purpose.
I wonder if something will happen to Sayid and his boat, since the Island can have wierd effects on people depending on how they enter it. By the way, who was Horace Gospeed on season 3? Was he some random member of Dharma? Did he have some relation with Ben?I don't remember well.

Moving the island explains why Whitmore was asking Ben about it in the flashforward...at least we now know how that happens.
Maybe the reason Claire didn't die from the rocket blast is the same as why Michael can't get shot, or how Locke survived getting shot by Ben...the island doesn't want them to die yet.
The time lapse is definitely strange....the mercenaries left the island after Jack's group found the body...technically they could've taken the scientist's body back to the boat before the scientist was actually killed.
Horace was never mentioned prior to this episode. Remember, he's been dead 13 years.

Horace was in the first flashback that involved Ben, when he was a kid on the Dharma initiative. I just don't remember at what capacity.
Anyways, as for Claire, don't you think there's some truth at the ghost guy being interested in her? He suddenly couldn't stop staring at her as if he knew there was something strange going on. Her sudden realization and change in demeanor, not "caring" at the baby somwhat tells me that this is not merely she being like Locke or Michael... I really think she's dead.
its a definite possibility...would explain why shes appearing in a haunted shack with sheppards dad who we know to be dead.
Btw, anyone else think the black guy is actually jacob. he's the one who first tells locke to go on the walkabout, and he says that he'll thank him when they meet again. That Richard guy and the black dude are the only 'island people' we've seen so far, and richard has always appeared in an 'assistant' capacity, showing up on behalf of someone, or comming to check things out. Even with ben, he acted like his right hand man. The black guy however seems to call the shots....remember his conversation with the parachute chick?
Wasn't he asking Hugo the location of the Island? Maybe he works for Whitmore, and I'm quite sure that the scientist, etc. that came to the Island said that he was the one that put the team together or some shit.
In the mental hospital scene with Hurley, Abaddon asked Hurley if they were still alive and before that he was offering Hurley an upgrade in hospital. He's a creeper, for sure.
I believe Horace was previously mentioned...I think he was the one who brought kid Ben and Ben's dad to the island.
I'm super confused when it comes to Richard. He like never ages...he and his freakin eyeliner eyes.
I tried my best...
ahh the scene with jack and that *ahem* lady at the end was the best "holy shit!" moment of this season. no wonder jack didn't want to be around aaron...
man im still confused about those numbers...they keep appearing everywhere, but they only seem to screw with hurley. i wonder what thier significance is. Do you guys think they really are the essential values to changing the outcome of humanity's inevitable demise?
Quite a cool episode in my opinion. Everyone has been placed in an odd position heading towards the finale.
No episode next week, but a two hour finale on the 25th. I want to see how this Island gets moved, the army getting their ass kicked, the boat blown up, and some sort of working relationship between Kate, Sayid, and The Others.
The whole "Claire being dead but nobody realizing it" thing seems kind of strange to me...
especially since other survivors got gunned down by the mercenaries too, yet they didn't stand up and start walking around...
That is pretty crazy that Jack found out about Claire being his sister...I was wondering if he would ever find out.
I want to see who the 6th member of the Oceanic 6 is. Lame that they tried so hard to hide it this episode. The fact that they are going through the extra effort to do so suggests that it's going to be something huge, though. Maybe it'll end up being someone we'd least suspect...like Locke

Wait, they're still hiding an Oceanic 6 member? Seeing everyone together I thought that they were considering Aaron as a member of it. So you think there's still another one?
In the press conference, the lady introducing them said " The remaining six survivors, including Mrs. Austen's baby".
Pretty sure something happens to Desmond and Jin.

I think they'll die on the boat when it explodes...unless the whole "Sun at Jin's grave" thing was a fake, and only there to screw with us.
I'm pretty sure her saying "including Mrs. Austen's baby" implied that she's introducing the baby in addition to the oceanic 6. I just know that there's been a lot of hype about who the 6th member could be, and when he/she will finally be revealed.Originally Posted by Munsu

Yeah, that could be true... and hopefully it is, but still, why wasn't the 6th one with them or at the plane for that matter? Doesn't make sense to me at the moment, they better come up with a kickass explanation or at the very least reveal it in the finale... we can't keep this Oceanic Six tirade for more seasons.
I also wonder if Walt will make more appearances, especially in the future and be revealed as another survivor and ruin these people's plans.
I think there were 6 on the rescue plane, but through careful camera angles, they managed to hide whoever was between the two people on the left side.
10/4/04 - 8/20/07
I was looking at that as I was watching the episode, but it wasn't the case... there was no one between Hurley and Jack, at least I'm quite certain there was no one there. Still, if there was someone on the plane, and they "all" agreed to the press conference as Jack stated, he should've at the least been there.
