Season 4 finale

Published by

I’m going to just give a rundown of my thoughts on Lost’s 4th season and some overall theories running through my mind.

Jack is the “chosen” one, or the person that should have replaced Ben -

“Bad things happened after [Jack] left”. I’m guessing Locke came back to find Jack and Kate for two reasons:

To save the island he needs Jack to return. Jack is a real leader and he seems to have a bigger connection with the island compared to Locke, it’s hidden by Jack’s denial and Locke’s passion but after some gestures by Jack at the end of the final it seems he knows what the island can do. Example: Jack denying Locke could move the island when hurley brought it up at the end of the finale; seems to me like Jack knows more than he lets on.

Jack is in the family tree. I believe that his dad has a huge spiritual part of the island and it’s getting more apparent with him showing himself to Micheal–who’s never seen him–. The other two in the family tree: Claire and Aaron.

So Locke not only needs Jack back, to lead the island, but Aaron as well to me the islands future.

I agree with the wormhole theory from popular mechanics.

To make physics sense of the movement of the island in Lost, I assume that the island is actually connected to the South Pacific by a wormhole-like warp in space-time. (It doesn’t have to be a simple worm hole; it could be a warren of parallel and intersecting tubes.) Then, to move the island, all you have to do is move the wormhole connection, not the island itself. That’s what I think Ben did. He changed the nature of the space-time connection between the island and the rest of the world.

So the island didn’t disappear. It didn’t even move. Imagine that you are visiting a small town that you used to visit when you were young. You drive for miles, and never come to it. But it turns out the town has not moved. Rather, the highway now goes around it. That’s what Ben did—he changed the highway.

Jin will meet up with Farriday on the boat and they will eventually find the isand after some time passes and they pass the door.

Hurley is truely insane–off the island–but with the island’s healing powers he’s fine. A crackpot theory: Hurley has abilities like Miles and he can’t control it, on the island he can control it.

– Hopefully the others come back to me.

Early Season 5 Predictions

Locke (or someone else on the island) makes contact / has conversation with Jack and the O6 on Penny’s boat, before they take off on the raft. They spent a week on her boat before taking off again on the raft, and I’m betting we’ll eventually see a flashback to that week.

Jin is not coming back. Hopefully, at least; I think that would be cheesy.

The first sighting of Locke on the mainland will be inexplicably close to whenever the O6 return. This will seem odd until they reveal that the island shifted in time (possibly in addition to or instead of space), so that Locke is now “ahead of them” and could theoretically get back to the mainland before they did.

Miles will be a cool character; I think he stayed on the island because he has learned a lot about it during his brief visit. If he truly can communicate with dead people, he potentially now knows more about the island than anyone else on it at this point.

Faraday’s raft was close enough to the island to stay with it. Hoping to see something come of the similarity between faraday’s journal notes and the island map.

Maybe more to come later…

Theories/ thoughts

So theres a lot of thoughts flying through my head about the show. instead of fully writing them out I just joted ideas down for you to all look at. A couple might be absurd but hey their still fun

the knife might be the one that Locke kills Naomi with.
Upon review, its not the knife. but what was the knife on the table for?

what if different cordinante to and from the island take you to different time periods in the rest of the world as well as on the island

The thing on Keamy’s arm might be a bomb or some other weapon that activates if hes killed (when his pulse stops, why its on his arm near an artery) or when physically activated.

the orderlly is jacob? no

Hurley sharing a candy bar with ben isnt the first candy bar that has been given to ben.

maybe they arent going to move the islands physical location but rather its place in time.

John and Ben both have had kidney issues. Both had fully functional kidneys. John got coned out of one of his, ben was held hostage by jack using his kidney.
So I hate to have to debunk my own theory but Emily Locke was in on the scam for Johns kidney, for the money. So she wouldn’t have been able to die giving birth to ben and still be around to scam john.
So what does the same name thing mean. Both their mothers names are Emily. both had kidney issues. Both have killed their fathers or had something to do with it.

Thought: what if Sawyer and John are half brothers. Same dad…

Did Claire tell Christian Shepherd to tell charlie to tell hurley to tell jack that hes not supposed to raise aaron because in season 5 maybe Jack goes back to the island to save everyone else. Maybe he dies on the island in season 5 like he was supposed in the Pilot. Maybe Sawyer and Kate do end up together.

Jack = John
John Shepherd
John Locke

Maybe on the island no one is alive or dead they are just in limbo because of its time properties which cause Richard to not age.
Maybe that limbo and in ability to age is what causes babies to not come to term.

It’s Michael in the casket. He betrayed everyone but tried to redeem himself which explains why no one but Jack showed up. I saw this because on the Enhanced “Through the Looking Glass” with “on screen facts” say that the article is about a man from new york who’s found dead in LA. If Michael Dies on the ship but the ship actually get back to the US they probably just dump the body. Walt is in NY.

4 8 15 16 23 42: numbers to help get people to and from the island???

Lost v. Bible

Is anyone studying the correlation between Lost and the Bible? There are quite a few characters biblical names in the show.

and check out the whole “shadow of death”/”monster” thing right under the names.

Mothers Day

So at first I didn’t know what to title this post but that thought of what to name it has put a little more weight behind this theory<observations. Did any one notice/remember that in Bencentric episode 3.20 (Ben’s birth), Ben’s mother is named Emily which is Locke’s mothers name. Half Brothers!!!!! and the episode being aired 3 days before mothers day I think lends a little more credence to this thought.

Changing the Rules

This is a post about tonight’s episode - don’t read it if you haven’t watched it yet.

So, I can only assume that the “changing the rules” Ben was referring to was the killing of an innocent person. I think that both Ben and Charles are somehow obligated to follow the same set of rules (perhaps “by the island”, whatever that means), and at least one of them is based around the “good people” thing they’ve alluded to throughout the show, specifically forbidding them (personally) from harming them.

Just a quick reaction theory, but I thought I’d throw it out there…

SPOILER

We’ve all witnessed the prominence of books and other works of literature on Lost. Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland precursor Through the Looking Glass has been adopted as an episode title and name of an submerged radio station. Charley used to refer to Hurley as Captain Kurtz, a character from Joseph Conrad’s The Heart of Darkness, and more recently it has been used in reference to Locke. The crashed parachuter was carrying a copy of Joseph Heller’s Catch 22, and the list goes on. I’ve read on other Lost blogs recently that on episode 4 of this season, titled Eggtown, Adolfo Bioy Cesares’ ‘The Invention of Morel’ will be featured prominently, being read by either Locke or Sawyer (the island’s two most avid readers). The book, inspired by the author’s childhood fascination with the movie star Louise Brooks, is set on a mysterious island and tells the story of a bizarre romance filled with suspense and mystery. Many have compared it to the workds of Philip K. Dick, who is rumored to have a book featured in the same episode. Similarities have also been drawn between Morel and Henry James’ The Turn of the Screw, which is in front of the orientation tape in the episode ‘Orientation’. The book has been out of print since the 80s (at the latest) and has just recently been reissued by a small publishing house New York Review Books. I’m not sure if all these connections mean anything, but it is interesting to consider.

Wondering if anyone else has checked out the “Missing Pieces” web episodes? “Room 23″ is particularly interesting…

Who was supposed to be “Jack”?

Responding to this recent theory reminded me of a question that always comes to my mind whenever I’m reminded of the fact that the producers had originally planned to have Jack die at the end of the very first episode.

Since they clearly had a series-spanning plot outline from the very beginning (not details, but major points), I wonder which character(s) they originally had planned to play some of the parts that Jack’s character now does.

Obviously they also evolve the show and the characters as it progresses, so much of the Jack stuff might not have been a part of the original concept at all, but he’s such a prominent figure that I can’t help but assume that some parts of his story must have been a part of that up front design, and they must (I’m assuming) have had an idea of which character(s) would fit those parts since Jack wasn’t originally supposed to be around.
