Regarding baby Aaron, I think it is one’s soul or spirit that mattered in the purgatory universe. To Claire and Charlie, Arron was a baby, not the 3 yr old toddler that we witnessed with Kate. On the same note, Jeon Kwon was never seen by Jin and therefore it was the soul spirirt of their daughter who was present as an unborn child within Sun.
As far as Sayid, it was the island experience that permitted Sayid to tip the scale toward goodness letting Desmond live in well and when he sacrificed himself for his island buddies. It was in the purgatory universe that he worked through the whole Nadia thing knowing that she belonged with his brother and their chidren, not with him (He also eliminated the men who could hurt Nadia and his brother and teh kids). It was Shannon who he needed to move forward with as they shared the island which provided his redemption as a loyal friend to all there and his moral character development. Shannon, like Sayid was flawed as Jacob pointed out.

Not sure im convinced about Libby, if you remember there were a few episodes where she popped up as just some completely different character, i think that maybe they had something a bit deeper planned for her but just gave up on it.

Emzi i hear what your saying about Shannon but Sayid hasnt stopped mentioning Nadia since basically the 1st season, Shannon has barely been mentioned since she died so i wouldve thought it would be nadia who would hook up. Plus he only knew Shannon a few days eternity is a long time!!

I think youre right about the Jin thing though.

ive just answered the Libby conundrum on another post… she was killed off in Season 2, which left us with no way of finding out how unless someone just randomly says one time, oh i met Libby once before yeah she was MENTAL for a while in Santa Rosa… baldi bladi bla. Its pretty obvious once you think about it. She became unstable after the death of her husband. after she regained sanity she met Desmond and gave him the Elisabeth to help herself let go of her husband.

Some of those questions are part of the reason I feel dissapointed in the end. There is no resolution to anything that had happened in the first 5 seasons.

I thought Jack’s tattoo would have had more meaning, but it didn’t add up to anything.

They’ve had 4 seasons to tie up the Libby thing. They never did.

I think I can answer the Sayid/Shannon thing. I think it was because they met on the island. He fell in love with Shannon and was heartbroken when she died.

Have no idea about the Aaron thing. Another mystery.

Jin buying the Panda bear was actually a flashback whilst Suns part in that episode was a flashforward. It was setup to confuse us and worked quite well. It was when we were finding out who the Oceanic Six were and they made it look like Jin was one of them, only to have the twist at the end where we find out Jin “died”.
