I think that this episode was unique because it showed that not even Jacob new the answers to certain questions.

Odette – ah yes, I didn’t think about the ashes! And as AES points out, Jacob has a replacement now, so if Locke being stuck for that amount of time was due to Jacob being dead, well maybe we will see a transformation.

Correct GK21, I do agree that the monster is MIB as you mention, it probably doesn’t come across that way in how I write because I’m lazy differentiating between the brother/MIB/Flocke/Smokey/monster names hehe gosh I just wish they’d named Brother, would make life so much easier for us all!

He will be able to change form now…although Jacob is dead, someone else has taken his rightful place…

This is perfect for the Christian/Jack…Skywalker/Vader showdown I have been waiting for for so long…

If he couldn’t change form then surely he couldn’t do the smoke thing. I think he’s staying Locke cause that’s who they all recognise. No?? No one would know mib. Plus I think the monster needed a new soul and that’s why crazy mother had to die. Monster then fed on mibs soul. I don’t think mib is the monster. The monster is mib.

I had not thought of Smokey changing appearances in the end as a possibility before, but now that you’ve mentioned it, I wonder if after all of Jacob’s ashes finish burning, Smokey will be able to change forms again? Oh, to think of the manipulating that could be done! Or maybe the fact that Jack accepted the responsibility will keep Smokey locked in that form?
