I’ve read a theory that Claire died when her home was bombed and we’ve been seeing a ghost version of her for a couple weeks now. That’s why the Asian psychic from the freighter was so interested in her. He knew there was something different about her.

Yes, I noticed the Dharma logo!

And yes, I think there is some connection b/w Ben/Locke and their moms…or at least their lives. TOO FREAKY.

Is Emily a time traveler too? Ben’s Mom died giving birth to him. Locke’s Mom visited him as an adult and got him to give up the kidney. Are they really the same person?

Crystal: Great comments!
I agree there is something with Ben & Locke. Maybe not “technically” brothers but their moms are both Emily’s. Or maybe they are Island brothers–meaning they have the same destiny. OR how ’bout their freaky conversation when Locke said, “I’m not you, Ben?” What if they are the same person?!

I usually don’t go for dead people theories. But Claire has got to be dead or drugged. B/C she was stinkin’ freaky last night.

I don’t think they are all dead/ghosts. But I DO think there is something to them not being how we see them…either different times, places, etc.

Good point about the knife. I was kinda thinking maybe John-child was going against his “destiny” as a man of faith and wanting to be the “superhero” and that ticked Richard off. OR scared him b/c that changes HIS destiny on the Island. That whole part was freaky.

COOL: Mittelos=Lost Time

Moving the Island in time…I agree. Maybe that’s why there was only 6? Sayid gets them off first & by the time they come back the Island is gone?

*happy sigh*

Here it is again:

I don’t think Richard Alpert is Locke’s dad (we already know who his dad is and their kidney’s matched and all) but I do think that Ben and Locke are half brothers because they have the same mother.

I think it is very possible that Claire is dead…which explains why she is fine without Aaron and in communion with her long lost father. I read another post that speculates that everyone on the island is dead except for the Oceanic Six…which explains why they don’t get off (dead people don’t enjoy travel??). That does make sense except for Rose, Bernard, Sawyer, etc who also don’t get off and are very much alive. But wait, maybe they all died in the crash and are just ghost too. Could be…you never know.

I think Richard was upset when John took the knife because the test was meant to prove what John’s relationship really is with the island. The knife proves that Locke is destined to be the leader of the Island someday…therefore very threatening to Richard.

I do think Richard is travelling around through time. Was Locke the only one he visited in childhood? We know he recruited Juliette later. And everybody knows that Mittelos is a (what’s it called when you scramble the letters) for Lost Time, right?

I think the island will be moved in time…not in actual location.

I don’t know. Sometimes this show is just too much to keep up with…but I love it anyway!

I think it is very possible that Claire is dead. That explains her lack of concern for Aaron and communion with her long lost father.

I think the Island will be moved in time…not in actual location. Maybe that’s what is going on when the sky turns purple?

I think that the test Richard gave young John was about his destiny. When John chose the knife it proved that it was indeed his destiny to be the leader of the island…therefore a big threat to Richard, hence his anger at the choice of the knife.

I read another blog that speculates that everyone on the island is dead except the Oceanic Six, which is why they stay…dead people don’t enjoy travel, I guess. That sort of makes sense except that Rose, Bernard, Sawyer, etc. all end up staying too. But then I got to thinking…what if they all died in the plane crash. Maybe the six are the only ones that did live and they’ve been communing with the dead this whole time!! I don’t know. But then what is going on when someone “dies”, i.e. Charlie, Boone, Shannon, Ana Lucia, the list goes on and on? Why do they disappear permanently instead of hanging around like a ghost…like Christian and Horace.

Good call on the nose bleed. I totally didn’t equate that with Desmond and the other guy on the ship, but you’re right. They get nosebleeds when they time travel though, not because they are ghosts, right? Maybe ghosts get nosebleeds from time travelling too. I don’t know, this show is too much for me sometimes.
