Lost: Episode Four Explained

LOST: Lighthouse

Ok, Some of my ideas of LOST have changed after this one episode. I have learned that the flashes of the survivors living their lives as if the plane never crashed is a different universe. Is it important? I don’t know. Maybe they needed something to waste time so they can show what would have happened if Jacob was influencing everyone’s lives. Another idea came up about the hydrogen bomb explosion. Now tell me this, fellow LOST fans, when does something as destructive as a hydrogen bomb NOT destroy everything and everyone that is in close range? Remember, when it “exploded” all we saw was a white light when Juliet smashed the bomb. Also, we were looking through Juliet’s perspective when she struck the “final blow.” I’m trying to say that the hydrogen bomb didn’t work at all and it is still in that ditch behind all the rubble that NEVER changed position after the explosion. The last addition to my theory of LOST is Kate’s importance in the candidate business. Now remember this, when we saw the Lighthouse Wheel and the Rock of Candidates, we never saw number 108 on neither. Either Kate or Aaron is lucky number 108 (or those black people, but probably not since they cancelled off the show because it was “not going anywhere”). 

Anyhow, Let us start with Claire and Jin. Claire is now an infected lady, just like Sayid. She, just like the French woman, was obsessed about her baby, Aaron. She helps Jin to find out the lie that Aaron was in the Temple with the Others. Then, Fake Locke comes in! What is this infection? I think that this infection is actually a possession of the body through evil spirits. Claire is obviously one of them, and Sayid is now crossed off the candidate list for sure. Why? Because they are trying to kill Sayid in order to get rid of his infection, which is why John Locke is heading to the Temple, to collect Sayid and as many other candidates as he can find.

Now, the situation with Hurley and Jack. Hurley and Jack go on a little quest to find Jacob at some Lighthouse. I believe that this Lighthouse was the device that drove or located the candidates to the island. The person who was coming to the island, either the black guy or his son, or Aaron, are coming over for this special election maybe. Jack, however, is special to Jacob though. Would Jack be the winner? Maybe, I don’t know, because we still have 2 Kwons, Hurley, Jack, Sawyer, and the X factor, 108. Maybe Jack helps the future winner, but I don’t know.

As for Jack’s flash sideways, I don’t think in the slightest that David is Jack’s youth or something. No! Get that out of your minds or you’ll fall behind! The flash sideways is the “what if…” The flash sideways shows what the survivors lives would have been if the plane didn’t crash and a man named Jacob wasn’t controlling their lives. 

Also, I still discourage the idea of this entire show being based off one survivor’s dream. The idea of the entire show being some dream that never happened bothers me, because then the director of the show is screwing off millions of fans that were expecting an excellent ending. I think the show is going to end where someone does take up the place of Jacob, and Fake Locke loses. But this is only if the flashes are of another universe. If the flashes were flash forwards, then yeah, everyone on the island is either leaving or dying so they can live normal lives. 

Last two issues of this article: Hurley’s talk about the skeletons and what would the future episodes be like. Hurley’s skeleton lecture is either a trick to fool us or it shows recent candidates or their actual selfs as skeletons. No hints were given, so I hope this 1 min talk in the show just dies down. And, finally, in the future, I think that some candidates will die. My top choices for a winner from greatest to least likely is as follows: Kate/Aaron(in other words, whoever is 108), Jack, Hurley, Jin, Sawyer, Sun, Sayid. My first three are based on who had the most connections and likings to Jacob, and the last three are based on the characters fate, decisions, and overall, how long they been in front of a camera. I mean, honestly, where the hell is Sun.

I hope this guide is helping to all those who are reading. Please comment, I’m getting lonely (or LOST )
