I would certainly hope so. You could always purchase that LOST game though.

or its his way of let them have the advantage of knowing when the soldiers are moving in on them.

Anyone get a 'Sally' vibe from Claire in the cabin? Creepy, considering her present company.

We need another writers strike so that they condense the episodes a little more and drop all the filler crap.

I figured they were leading them to Jacob's cabin. It's the place, I think, that Ben would go (in the Secondary Protocol).

Yeah, I did.

But I think it's just because they're both dead and have no worries.

I don't think Keemy is "mad" with island fever. I think he's a killer, plain and simple. Now that the island knows what's going to happen, its instructed John to make sure it's not destroyed.

Apparently, John's been to the island before, possibly in a different life as a member of the Black Rock. It's also possible that through my theory of time travel/different plane of existence, John is also Jacob.

I just re-watched the "test" scene. I'm inclined to agree with you. There was something more to that vibe than just hesitation on second viewing.

John as Jacob? I hadn't considered that. I'll have to let that rattle around in my noggin for a bit. Interesting notion.

That was my thinking, but Jack blew the call. "I think we're supposed to follow them".

Has anyone played through LOST:Via Domus? Is it worth picking up? I imagine it's got very little replay value.

After Emily got run down in the downpour, that tears it...

Anyone know if there is a single database of every plot development that occurs in the middle of a sudden unexpected downpour on this show. I have a hunch that fate travels by water.

Ana Lucia shooting Shannon
The Locke/Jack split and concurrent landing of Faraday/Charlotte
Harper appearing to Juliet
Christian and Ana Lucia tracking down Claire in AU

Those are some that pop to mind

I've always noticed that when its pouring, bad things happen.

Also, I was thinking of the possiblity of John and Ben being brothers in some way. I brought it up on Patriotsplanet and this is what someone found out:

This may have contributed to his being abandoned by his parents at a very young age and consequently brought up in several foster homes. He has (or had) a brother and a sister. His sister, Jeannie, died at a young age, from a broken neck received falling from some monkey bars. Her mother blamed herself for not looking after her. After her death, a Golden Retriever showed up and took up residence in Jeannie's bedroom. Locke's foster mother believed that the dog contained the spirit of Jeannie returning to tell her that the accident was not her fault. The dog vanished shortly after Locke's foster mother's death 5 years later. It was never to be seen again.("Outlaws")

Also from IMDB:

On the day of his birthday, Ben recalls important parts of his life: when he was born, his mother Emily, pregnant of seven months, was hiking with his father, Roger, dying after the delivery in the woods nearby Portland, Oregon.

Also, Horace and his GF were the ones who stopped and helped Roger and Emily after she delivered prematurely.

**Baby Lee** · 05-09-2008, 11:41 AM

Oh and in case you guys hadn't heard, they've added an episode to each of the last two seasons, to make up for the rest of the shortfall from the strike. So instead of 16-16-16, we get 14-17-17.

Chiefnj2 · 05-09-2008, 11:46 AM

The guy at EW has a theory that Locke was the island's first choice and Ben the second choice. Locke failed the Alpert test when he was 5 which was the year Ben was born. They made a second run at Locke with the science summer camp which was around the time that Ben then went to the Island with his dad.

While Locke's teacher was advising him to become a great scientist, Locke was more concerned with boxing, hunting and fishing. He knew his destiny lie as a defender (i.e. Knight) and not as a scientist.

The only problem with this theory is that Locke's mother (needing money) showed up and reunited John with his father.

What the hell did Locke mean by saying "We have to move the island"?

I figured the island would take care of the intruders itself. Why the need to move it?
