As for why he wants to go back, perhaps he now knows a lot more about the island, and may even think that there may be some way to change the past and/or future if they can get back to it. Either that or some people were left behind (as you suggested) and he was never able to save them.

I think Locke may be in the box. I don't think it is Ben. Why would Jack be so distraught about Ben's death, to want to kill himself. But he may be that upset about Locke's death, especially if Locke was right about him making a big mistake by answering the phone and getting off the island, and maybe Locke was his only way to get back to the island? Why do you think Jack wants to go back to the island so bad. Do you think that only a few got off the island? I agree with Jared’s theory. I think Locke may be in the box. I don’t think it is Ben.

I don't think Rose would be a significant enough character for them to discuss like that either, and she probably would have had friends or family. Locke is the ideal choice since we've already seen that he has no family connections and probably no good friends either. You could say the same thing about Ben, but my bet is still on Locke.

But I think the clue was the fact that it was a black funeral director in a black neighborhood. Could it have been Rose? Maybe in getting off the Island, her cancer came back--another reason Jack would feel guilty. Interesting idea.

When the funeral director asked if Jack was family or friend, he said neither. I think Ben was in the Coffin. When the funeral director asked if Jack was family or friend, he said neither.

Lost creators have had a good deal of continuity and very little mistakes for the sake of advertising. His Phone told me that the flashes took place AFTER the Island. It was a new model. His Car ( a new model Range Rover also i think) was a good hint also. What immediattly tipped me off on the whole Flash Fwd things was his phone.
