Claire in the Cabin – Who is Aaron really – Jacob?
In this theory and in my opinion our newest mystery the “Jacob Rival” has been Christian Shephard the entire time. The question of Christians body not being found and Lockes’ was could be answered simply by saying that Rival buried Christians body to hide it so that he could pretend to be Christian and once he got into Locke’s body he was ready to execute his plan so burying the body was not first on his agenda. Plus the plane did not really crash so he would have been suspect if he was messing with a coffin underneath the plane. He had to keep it low-key so that Richard and eveyone else would believe he was Locke.
Now where does Claire play into all of this and why did Rival need to look like Christian, its not like Locke would recognize him anyway. Any Jackhole in that cabin saying “I can speak for Jacob” Locke would believe. He WAS (stressed the was) gullable as hell!!!!!!!
I think that Rival needed to look like Christian because he knew that Aaron was really Jacob and he wanted to have the opportunity to use that to trick Claire. I have not figured it all out but Desmond might bring all the kids back I don’t know but Aaron is special, he looks like Jacob (blond hair – blue eyes), he was born on the island, he might come back and become Jacob. Read on to see Rival/Christians strange interest in Claire and keeping Aaron away –
In the Cabin when Locke meets Christian for the first time – Christian/Rival asks Locke “do you know why your here”, and Locke goes “because I was chosen to be” and Rival says with a grin “thats absolutely right” just like his plan is working perfectly. Then Locke sees Claire.
L”Claire?”
C”Hi John”
L”What are you doing here?”
C”Dont worry, im fine, im with him!”
Locke then muffles and goes,
“Where’s the baby”
Christian/Rival buts in and says “The babys where he is supposed to be, and thats not here. Its probably best that you don’t tell anyone you saw her.”
Locke goes “Wha? Why is she….”
Christian/Rival buts in again and says “We don’t have time for this,” and continues to tell Locke how he must move the island, Locke then leaves and never mentions the whereabouts of Claire to anyone.
Why did Rival go out of his way to bring Claire of all people into the Cabin and do something to her (kill her most likely) so that she would not seem to care about Aaron or anything, she seemed stoned. Christian/Rival seemed very keen on keeping Aaron away from the cabin and the island and was very shady about keeping Claire’s whereabouts a secret.
We know she is not in the cabin now because Ilana went in and said “Someone else has been using it, he has not been here for a long time.” Since we know she works for Jacob, we know shes saying that Christian/Rival has been using the cabin, so I feel like its pretty clear that Christian is Rival, same way Rival became Locke. He can probably just puppet these bodys around and buried Claire as well. Sorry Claire – you probably will return, but I seem to think your dead!
That sound very interesting and could be true, however I learned with LOST that no matter what I or my friends think and how much we try to predict what will happen, its always something else. That’s why I LOVE the show…unpredictable. Damn, I’m gonna miss it when its done.
that was very nice thinking. you could be right, maybe aaron is jacob? that would be cool. i agree with you about about claire i think she is dead also. she was acting soo weird. i think the claire we saw in the cabin was imposter claire just like imposter christian and locke. i do like your thoughts on this one. it would make a lot of sense as far as claire and aaron are concerned. nice one. eko rocks
thanks for the comments, eko def rocks!
tell me you loved him as Adabisi in Oz.
yeah, that could be. “christian” is also wearing a dark colored shirt similar to jacob’s rival…the whole light versus dark thing…i think i’m going to watch the episodes with “christian” again and see if he always wears something black or dark.
I don’t recall him ever wearing a light-colored anything but an undershirt… that’s a pretty cool idea bbubba.
I LOVED Eko as Adabishi in Oz! Seriously, how did he ever keep that teeny little hat on his head?
Could Walt be MIB then? We could start all over!
