Lost!

---If Rose's boss is Hugo, why on Earth didn't she say "hello" to her boss on the plane?


---So far we've seen both Kate and Jack have looks on their faces which indicated some sort of deja vu.....was it just me or did Locke kinda have a lost memory come back to him when he was getting wet from the sprinklers?

---If MiB is stuck with Locke's face(as Illana indicated) does that mean Christian, who appeared to Sun and Lepidus after MiB was seen walking around as Locke IS NOT the Smoke Monster/MiB?

---Are the names we didn't see on the cave wall more significant then the ones we did? Kate? Lepidus? Hume?

Maybe she only knew his name, not what he looks like.

Why would it necessarily mean that? She said he's stuck as Locke now, that doesn't mean he couldn't be someone else before. Maybe he can no longer change because Jacob's dead, or some other thing that's changed since he was Christian.

There's always been allusions to the fact that no all of the survivors were equals. The Others always referred to things like "He's one of the good ones". So the fact that some names are there and others aren't isn't really a surprise. I wouldn't say that the names that aren't there are more significant, it just begs the question of what the difference between the names that are there and the names that aren't is.

He said he just bought the company. Maybe he didn't own it when they were on the plane. Or, maybe she'd rather not say hi to the owner of a company who may or may not have any idea who she is.

Or maybe they knew each other and were just sitting in different places therefore not interacting.


Regarding the "candidates" names in the cave and the little blonde boy notLocke was chasing...

23- Shephard

Does it refer to Jack or Aaron (who, since Claire is Christian's daughter is, indeed, a Shepard)?

Smoked Lox said that Jacob came to each person and guided them to the island, so that wouldn't be Aaron. I suppose it could be since linear time obviously doesn't matter, but it'd be kinda odd that the 6 number would refer to 5 adults and 1 unborn person.

But that brings up questions:

Was Christian Shepard (when seen on the island) really Jacob? If so, he touched Aaron.

Why did Claire survive to give birth to Aaron when babies never survived to be born on the island?

Why was Claire hanging out in the cabin where Jacob supposedly dwelt? (Yes, I know most now assume that the being in the cabin was MIB, but was it really?)

Can we believe MIB when he says Jacob was "guiding" them to the island? Or was it a case of redemption? As of now (until proven otherwise), I think anything the MIB says should be viewed with a jaundiced eye, especially when it's pretty clear he's attempting to manipulate Sawyer into his corner. I think it is in his (MIB) best interest to cast doubt on Jacob in order to manipulate things in his favor and prevent the ascendancy of a "substitute".


Another question bothering me is if it was Jacob's list, why hadn't Locke's name already crossed off?

I seem to recall Juliet mentioning something about the lateness of Claire's term when she arrived on the island which allowed her to survive. But the drug may have also played a part.
