Since they've gone to awkward lengths not to reveal the name of David's mother, I'm fairly certain we'll get this scene in the "Finally":

JACK: David, there's your mother. Let's go over and say hello.
[Cut to a familiar looking figure from behind, with distinctive blonde hair]
DAVID: Hello, mother.
[Cue dramatic music as David's Mother turns around slowly...to reveal Titus Welliver in a wig!]
DAVID'S MOTHER: Hello, David. Hello, Jack.
JACK: Hello...you.

LOST

I'm confused. Is the concert being held by Eloise Hawking (where she kicked Desmond out) the same as the recital that Jack's kid is playing at?

Overall, I thought this was pretty good. I doubt Richard is dead, but the smoke monster probably knocked him far away from the compound. Besides, he's eternal, not invulnerable.

Why did Jacob tell Kate that her name was cross-out because she became a mother. Aaron was not her real son unless this has to do with Jacob false mom from last episode. He did tell her that she could take his place if she want it.

Just that she now had something to live for off the island - meaning raising Aaron.

By those standards, why was Sun and/or Jin not crossed off?

He crossed her off because she was no longer alone, and didn't want to take somebody who had responsibilities to another person. But since she was back on the island, she could do it if she wanted to.

It's just chalk on a wall. It doesn't mean anything. Geez.

Fair enough. I mostly stayed away from the thread last week, so I didn't know that was a general consensus.

i was joking.

brother. stop using logic

Well, it's only one of them. My guess given the daddy/mommy issues on the show is that the one on the list is now clearly Jin. Jack is an uncle to the baby, and yet he has nothing to live for. Being a father is probably something viewed in the same light by Jacob, a fatherless child.

hey I'm not saying it made sense, just relaying what he meant. But there was that question as to which kwon it was...

Donkeys tend to bite dumbass, egotistical tv writers. Polar bears are far more tolerant.

Maybe he meant Ji Yeon who will eventually replace Jack?

Exactly, doesn't mean a thing even though they talked about those stupid fucking numbers since season 1, showed us the not only the names crossed out in the cave but also the light house. At the end of the day they didn't mean a damn thing.


"It's yours if you want it". Biggest cop out I think I've ever seen on a show.

As our time with Lost comes to a close I begin to wonder if there is more significance to the relationship between Jack and Desmond. In the two timelines they are akin to spiritual brothers who are working together to "fix" things. It gives much more meaning to Desmond's "See you in another life brotha." and the 'failed' relationship between Jacob and MiB. I just hope that between Jack and Desmond they can break this cycle of men = evil and death, and island protector (be it from smokey or man in general).

Sci-Fi wire has posted what they believe to be the final page of the script from the series finale for those interested...

Yeah, what the heck do the numbers mean anyways?

It's as if Tim Kring took over the show...what a joke. What a joke!

You know what I almost forgot? The magic lighthouse! No one ever bitches that it hasn't been explained. It's a lighthouse where you can watch people's houses!!

Great episode! Can't wait until Sunday! No theories here, however, I have a feeling Sidways Aaron is going to be born and it's going to be pivotl to the ending!

I really don't think it's for watching houses. I think it's what allows Jacob to "leave". A lighthouse isn't for observation -- it's for sending out a warning.

Did you read it? I don't want to know what's in it, but why would you think that? Is it really that bad in your opinion?

I think it's a really obvious joke. I don't say that trying to send people over to see it just in case C&L have written an extremely laughably bad finale, but I will be absolutely stunned if that's anything but an obvious joke.
