I really think Sayid is the guy. But I don't think time travel has anything to do with it. I think Sayid has been linked to Ben the whole time....

It appears that Ben is the only person able to time travel physically, everyone else (815, Desmond, etc.) have only done it in "spirit" or whatever.
Sayid would make sense for a number of reasons. But in the Flash-forwards he seems to be very unaware of things and tied to Ben out of duty or necessity. I don't think enough has happened to make Sayid ready for Ben. Yet.

I didn't like the character either, but he was locke's protege, for lack of a better word.
About laughed my ass off when Ben asked if the rabbit had a number. |

I don't think that's the point of Locke's character. Locke has been looking for something to believe in for so long that it's easy for him to fall for something. If Ben can break that last belief Locke has (he is in tune with or chosen by the island) Ben will have him. Ben will be the only Guru he's got. And since Ben is so damned persistent about getting Locke to break his ties with what's holding him back it's convinced me he's one of the 06. The final step will be going back out to the world without his legs. "Are you ready? Can you do it?"

Here's another question, was Ben being Honest when he was telling Locke about Penny's dad. I mean, we did see him buy the logbook a week or two ago, and he does seem like a genuine douche, but...you can't trust ben...

I'd argue it is true. It would also explain why her dad's looking for the island (once again Desmond is ****ing up his deal.) Ben always tells the truth of the matter but not HIS truth...

Ben uses the truth, as all good liar's do. I'm not convinced he's always truthful, however.
Either way, this season has really taken the show up a notch. |

Yep, they have learned their lesson about draggin chit out. Look at the way they handled the shrink gal. No 3-4 episode arc to try to figure out where she fits into the equation. But still enough mystery like WTH has she been hiding and observing? Via the darma cameras?

1. I wonder if he set up the yacht race to purposefully go near the area where the island is in hopes that someone (Desmond?) would end up on the island. 2. In 1994 when Desmond asked Widmore "Why do you hate me?" he replied something to the effect that "It's not me who hates you." I wonder who does hate Desmond?

Never fear though, as they have 35 more episodes after the conclusion of this season to wrap up their story. |

Has anyone read this page?
http://www.timelooptheory.com/the_timeline.htm It doesn't really have any spoilers, so don't worry about that. Just a long theory on what's going on.
