Questions on Jacob’s visits to the Losties….
Just a thought, but is there any significance as to why Jacob chose to visit both Sayid and Hurley in thier interim period off island (Sayid being married and Hurley just being released from mental asylum – and Charlie’s guitar left in the taxi with him) whereas all the others (Jack, Kate, Sawyer (James), Sun and Jin – Ilana too but we don’t know the timing of that visit) he visited pre-flight 815 crash?
On a side note, the taxi driver at first glance seemed to resemble Caesar who Ben recently killed. I’ve not watched the episode back yet so I could easily be wrong on these observations….:-/

I think it’s safe to say that his visits are of extreme significance – but what it is – remains open for discussion. Important to note is that Juliet was the only flashback character in The Incident who didn’t encounter Jacob – which I think is worth noting also.. I for one, am as of yet – totally convinced that Jacob actually is a “Good Guy” which could then be a good thing – for Juliet(I don’t like what Jacob did when he visited them – I blame him for Nadias death – who’s with me) and I hope that Juliet isn’t done yet. But indeed, Jacob must have done something, with/to/for the Losties – good or bad, we can’t say, but I’d be very, very surprised if it had no bearing on the story..
