Will Jack have to give up his son, or Desmond his? And who else? Ben? Sawyer, Hurley, Kate...? We have already seen Sayid's sacrifice in the current timeline, as well as Jin's when he stayed with Sun.... @ elswhere: your statement: But, I keep thinking back to that scene of Desmond in the Monastery, where him and Brother Campbell have the conversation about Abraham sacrificing Isaac, and how Desmond underestimates the power of sacrifice…

We have already seen Sayid’s sacrifice in the current timeline, as well as Jin’s when he stayed with Sun….

On one hand you have Desmond who only has a son in the original timeline, and then you have Jack who only has a son in the ALT. Seems to present something of a pickle, if you ask me! That is, if in the end one reality trumps the other! And, Desmond's motives at this point do seem a bit unclear and troublesome to me! But, I keep thinking back to that scene of Desmond in the Monastery, where him and Brother Campbell have the conversation about Abraham sacrificing Isaac, and how Desmond underestimates the power of sacrifice... Eloise Hawking for example chose to sacrifice her son, all while knowing what would happen to him on the island... But, yet she was rewarded for this sacrifice, as she was given back her son in the ALT. Just wondering who will have to make the ultimate sacrifice in the end... and who will be rewarded? Is David up for sacrifice? Yeah, I really think David will be symbolic and represent something of a dilemma and a choice for Jack.

I'm with you and AES in thinking that David holds some importance in the upcoming concert and event(s) to follow... the fact that David does not exist in the original timeline certainly must be meaningful... And I also agree with AES about the potential for Jack being diverted away from his role as the Guardian of the island. @ Elsewhere – great catch about David!

If we take Ben for example – Desmond's attack on him makes it seem as if his (Ben's) choices in the ALT, which have made him respectable and good, are almost irrelevant… Great comments –

I really think it is going to be important that Jack be with him...eventually taking him out of the running as island protector.

They will be missed once this is all over. :( Quick question? Wasn't that also the same piece of music that David Shephard played at his audition? If so, it seems that, that particular piece of music may be of some importance... good catch. I like your thoughts on Faraday, but I also wonder if David will be of some significant importance at this gathering, considering he is the only person (that I am aware of) who didn't exist in the original timeline.

I couldnt help but question the same thing in my own post, with different ideas of who could all be there, maybe even playing along... I also couldnt help but think about Desmond trying to "show" people things through violence, and have to question his exact motive and plan in the long run of all of the FSW mayhem... Greats thoughts in your time here, and great last theory, always love reading your posts...cant wait to see what happens, and how it goes over on this site in particular.
