Jacob, on the other hand won't allow MIB to leave because he now holds too much of the light and, if the light is allowed to leave, "it will go out in all of us."

Makes sense.

Todays Ponderable:

So, Sayid is telling Jack that Desmond is in a hole somewhere and that it is vitally important that Jack go to him; we also have Desmond running all over sidewaysland, Bonnevilling his way over the handicapped, stalking women who are 8.5 months preggers, and hooking up millionaires with the insane.......seems like he's a man with a mission.

But how does that jive with what he was told back in season 3?

MS. HAWKING: "You may not like your path, Desmond, but pushing that button is the only truly great thing that you will ever do".

[innerSpaceman]

Everything can be so easily "explained" by it being a lie.


Of course, when she said that - the sideways world may not have yet existed. But of course, "great thing" is in the eye of the beholder, and I think Desmond's done plenty of great things in both universes.

Maybe it will end like Twin Peaks:



FLOCKE: "If you know what's good for you, don't move. The fool broke the rules; it's really no good if you don't volunteer. Doesn't count if you're coerced. He'll have to be punished....of course, that doesn't mean we have to let you go."


FLocke grins and is about to use the syringe on Jack when a hand reaches in to stop him.....it's Juliet! Suddenly we hear the sound of two tremendous energies colliding and a white light fills the room. Jack looks to kate and see's her calling out to him silently.

---------------------------

Fighting off fatigue, Sawyer moves around stretching. Looking back to a grove of trees near the Black Rock he sees someone lying on the ground. He run's to them, it's Jack and Kate lying unconscious.

SAWYER: "Jack, Jack,! What happened?"

(talking into a police radio) "Miles, get that ambulance up here right now!"

Kate is covered in blood.

"Jack, Jack, are you ok doc"
(sound of sirens in the distance....they sound sort of familiar)

Jack slowly opens his eyes.

--------------------------------------------------

Wearing pajamas Jack is lying in bed. Sawyer and Christian attend to him.

CHRISTIAN: "Here he is"
SAWYER: "Jack"
JACK: "where am I"

SAWYER: "Your home. Kate is going to be ok, she's at the hospital."

CHRISTIAN: "You've had quite a shock, but everything checks out, you'll be fine"

SAWYER: "Doc, I can't tell you how worried we were, I saw you disappear...."

JACK: Sit's up on the edge of the bed, looks at Sawyer for a long moment; "I need to brush my teeth"

SAWYER: "Ok doc, let me help you up"

-----------------------------------------

Jack walks slowly to the bathroom and closes the door. He squeezed some toothpaste on a brush and some more into the sink....he stares a long time at his reflection in the mirror.

Then, suddenly, he slams his head into the mirror......

the broken mirror reveals the reflection of MiB!

THE END

50 Questions Lost Really Does Need To Answer

[innerSpaceman]

It's Last Chance night. If I hate tonight's ep as much as I did the last two, I'm not going to any Final Episode parties. I won't be inspired to throw together a last-minute costume, that's for sure (especially since the one idea I took a liking to requires me to dye my hair).

Now, since I'm not a one who can even follow the questions, much less hope they are answered, let's have a look at that list ...

[SzczerbiakManiac]

In addition to the 2½ hour finale on Sunday, there are a couple other programs of note.

Prior to the finale, there's "Lost: The Final Journey", a two hour cast retrospective from 7:00p - 9:00p.

Then after the finale and news, there's a special version of Jimmy Kimmel Live entitled "Aloha to Lost" starting at Midnight. It'll feature appearances from executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse with "alternate endings" of the show.

On the official LOST podcast, Damon and Carlton said they only wrote one ending and had fun with the alternate endings.

[innerSpaceman]

Wow, that's quite a list. And say I was way more in touch with the series, and wanted just HALF of that list answered. It would be IMPOSSIBLE in two remaining episodes unless they were both just everyone sitting around a campfire listening to a lecture from Jacob's ghost.
