If you die in Alt, You're Dead! We will see Jack stay on the Island to protect the Real World/Timeline (I wonder what will happen to jack in Alt by him choosing to stay on the Island??) All the others will die but will still be alive in Alt living their Real lives until they die there (this is the bittersweet ending, they are dead but still alive but don't remember all their friends and other things that happened in their lives and they won't remember Jack's sacrifice - except in flashes) All the other stuff we saw happen to them did happen to them, but the bomb altered the timeline and only the Island versions of themselves remember those other events in their lives that were wiped out by Jughead.

It's much easier for my simple brain to understand the Alt as "Real" and the Island a battleground or gameboard or hub or cork that keeps the evil busy and from entering the "real" world.

David being alive, etc. ... were their lives *before* the plane crashed and things they did while on the island resulted in the differences. But, it doesn't answer why Jack didn't remember his appendectomy and it's apparently been said the expandeds aren't cannon. Also - "It's you, Jack," implies he's 'the Candidate'. But, if you're right about those last losties ... I'll repeat the mantra my family used last night ... Let the killing begin!

And now it feels like we will see one candidate die in each one of the remaining episodes. I fully agree! And now it feels like we will see one candidate die in each one of the remaining episodes.
