When Comic Con aired the Videos, I believed that from a ‘writing’ perspective, this would be the best logical approach to Season 6.

Thanks for your comment!

how did you know that the season would be with these two timelines?????

very nice catch (Y)

I suppose we will learn exactly how Jacob had the ability to not only pre-empt ‘the plan’, but put forth the actual actions necessary to avert it. Essentially, his ‘master plan’.

Clearly Jacob’s statements to Fake Locke, has made him realize what he needs to be afraid of. I happen to think that he likely has many things to fear.

I completely agree with you about John Locke. He is ‘central’ to the story. His unique communion with ‘the island’, makes him special. No doubt we will learn just how special he is, and what his overall importance is to ‘the island’.

Hope you have a good work-out!

its interesting to note that jacob knew that locke was going to fallout of his ‘dads’ office appartment, just like the way locke knew of his healing by richard and the compass exchange!

so perhaps theyre on the same level! lockes is the main man!

i mjust go for my work night out now, so ill chat to you later my favourite canadian!

My statements were to imply that whatever the implications are/were for Fake Locke, when Jacob makes that statement carry the knowledge that Jacob has pre-emted his plan, and he, better than anyone knows where that is going to lead.

The ‘losties’ are a part of that, but also, as you say, those implications are far larger. It has to be as you say it is. I cannot think of any better way to put it, than you have.

I am open to hearing any further thoughts you might have, because you are definitely on the right track!

loves.

Not knowing what the ‘big’ picture is, between Jacob and Fake Locke might be determined best, if we actually knew what the ‘big’ picture is.

Having said that, I feel that it must be something that ‘the losties’ are involved in, and what the repercussions that may have been brought about as a result of ‘the incident’. The ‘incident’ is occurring simultaneously in the story-line as Jacob is being killed.

I anticipate that while it is possible that there may be other influences from the outside world involved, that the main focus will be with the characters we have come to know on ‘the island’.

I am also anticipating that those numbers might also be inflated, along with a few other twists, that we won’t see coming.

Thanks for always asking questions that challenge me to think outside of the box, and take my thoughts beyond what I have posted!

“theyre coming”, now why would that fear locke, what could come that fears locke the most? i think perhaps the outside world? but surely that cant be what jacob is talking about…but worth pondering!

What further substantiates this idea is, Jacob’s final words before he dies. He says; “They’re Coming”, which we see how shocked and angered Fake Locke was.

It was Jacob’s subtle way of telling him that he had pre-empted his plan, and that Fake Locke got ‘hung’ in his own loophole.

Can’t wait to see that play out in Season 6!

you took the words out of my cyber mouth! i think thats exactly what jacob was reffering to. it was easy to make the assumption he was reffering to the loophole on how to kill him, and i think circumstance lead the viewer to think that, but as you say when he lead ben and richard to view their past self, then i think that was definently a loophole, as i dont think it was something that was meant to happen, but locke was special enough to find out. im a bit of a locke devotee to be honest, i think hes the most important charactor in the show, he just ouzes mystery and more than anyone apart from richard and jacob, his hole demeanour just represents the island and its mystery!

genious!
