Was it Desmond's girlfriend who was seen at the last scene of season two?

It wasn't Desmond's girlfriend(Penny). She didn't say "Desmond"...she said "Desmond?"*.

*At least according to closed captioning.

CDW meant the other girlfriend, the one he apparently jilted to join the monastery. As for the inflection of "Desmond", that could either "Desmond?" as in, 'I've only seen photographs so I'm not sure, but are you Desmond?" Or it could have been, "I'm severely injured, barely conscious, and had little hope of ever actual finding him, so am I really seeing Desmond?" So really, that doesn't give much of a clue. The only real clue was the book, in a foreign language.

You're right...I had not considered that.

One other clue would be the ABC website......The girls name is not Ruth(his former girlfriend) it is Naomi.

Also, the foriegn language of that book is Portugese(which is also the language that our snowbound friends at the end of season II were speaking).
