Thoughts and Questions

This isn’t really a theory at all hence why I put it in the questions sections but these are just a few thoughts and questions that I had all jumbled together.

1. In a deleted scene in season five Christian is talking to Sun and Lupidis and then takes and ax and chops open a door of one of the old dharmaville houses, he then proceeds to ask one of them for a flashlight. To me that’s playing on the fact that when Locke first went to visit Jacob in the cabin he shined the flashlight and things went crazy and ben told him that Jacob doesn’t like technology. Christian claims that he can speak on behalf of Jacob but to me him asking for the flashlight means one of two things, either Christian is lying about being able to speak on behalf of Jacob or MIB pretended to the others that he was Jacob. Either way from what we’ve seen I don’t think Jacob was ever in that cabin.

2.Another idea is that we’ve seen Jacob in “the incident” come up with his almost counter-plan to MIB’s plan by visiting select members of the 815’s off island. I think it is fair to say that MIB probably did the same thing. I’m mentioning this because in the episode when Desmond tries to become a priest or whatever he was trying to become he mentions to his ex fiance that he was drunk blacked out and when he woke up there was a man with a rope tied around his waste or something to that effect that stood over him. In the opening scene of “the incident” MIB has such a rope tied around his waste

3. In one of the episodes of season 5 Sayid when referring to Faradays book mentions that Faraday had a very specific time table to when they had to detonate the nuke. To me that means that Faraday knew exactly when the incident of them drilling to far into the pocket happened and needed the bomb to go off before this in order to prevent that from happening. How did he know that.

4. Almost always before smokey appears it rains or smokey is near the water. Why? And we see Jacob around fire a lot and he got burned in the fire. Why? Maybe smokey is water some way and jacob is fire.

5. Lastly it seemed fairly clear that Jacob and MIB couldn’t kill each other personally they had to get someone else to do it. However Ben stabs Jacob and Jacob is dying but still alive and then MIB really seems like he’s the one who ultimately kills him by pushing him into the fire.

I apologize if any of these issues have been brought up before.

  1. Answer in # order

    1. I have no idea what to think of Christian. He is beyond my comprehension at this point.

    2. Good connection, but Desmond was referring to a monk helping him up which is why he decides to join a monastery. The monks wear the rope belt as well.

    3. Faraday is an expert physicist – he saw and examined Jughead in ’54 so he knew about the bomb. He left the island for three years to work Dharma HQ at Ann Arbor so he definitely knew about The Swan. As for 815 crashing as a result, some1 probably told him same way Hurley knew in Some Like It Hoth ” that is the hatch that crashes our plane”

    Desmond figured that out and said it to Locke, everyone must have been notified!

    4. I do not think we have ever seen Smokey travel over water! Other then that I have no clue.

    5. I think Ben stabbing the shit out of Jacob was weakening enough for FLocke to give him a little shove! It was dramatic!

    Good?

  2. Yea you make some fair points and I realize that monks wear those ropes too but that event created a life altering decision for Desmond bc he met Penny much like Jacob intervened in key points of other characters lives so that why I think it could have been MIB.

  3. 3 IS interesting.

    Faraday experimented on himself and went a tad mad. Perhaps his conscious went forward then.

    The experiments are interesting in that when Eloise went forward in time she never disappeared – but the losties did when they popped around (As the mouse’s namesake pointed out when taking Losties to Jughead.)

  4. 4 is also a bit interesting. When Ben summons Smokey, he flushes some water. We don’t know where the water goes. Perhaps the water goes to the place under the Temple. Perhaps Smokey is really smoke produced by fire and water.
