I think i know who that coffin belongs to ;)
'Specially after hearing the brainwashing video in revese ;)
Moment "they" got out of the car you suddenly realise what you've been seeing.
Sorry it wasnt slow, but oh well.
I didnt get the whoe flashback/forward thing.
Jacks dad was, allegedly, alive making the flashes in the past. The end though showed Kate and Jack together and the conversation started with Jack saying he cant stand keeping it a secret any more etc.
My initial thought was that Kate and Jack knew each other before they got to the island and they had some horrible past that they were keeping secret.
The conversation then headed towards "crashing planes" and "going back there" which would suggest that its a future flash. Everything they said seemed consistent with them being rescued and Jack wanting to go back to the island.
He never actually said "island" though. I've still got this small suspicion that it may be a regular flashback and once we re-listen to the conversation with knowledge that we will get next season it will become clear that they were talking about something else completely. I doubt that will be the case, but you never know.
The two things that contradict both theories are:-
Jacks dad
Jacks phone
His dad is dead, so how can he "bring his dad down" or get a prescription from him. Even if the script is forged, a dead Dr wouldnt have a prescription pad. This places it as a regular flashback.
His phone was a new motorola. It was too modern to fit in in a flashback. Props are usually carefully selected to establish a time line, so is possible an error was made or that this puts the time line post-2006.
Okay first off I knew the three wouldnt be killed, but I didnt know why they wouldnt do as Ben told them to do. I expected Hurley to come back but I didnt think he'd use the van lol. Nice one Hurley.
Blimey the Losties really do a lot of killing, apart from Ethan (and his mate) who went nuts I cant remember when a Lostie got killed by an Other. The Losties are really wiping each other out and get this! Hurley finally killed someone :O Uh oh Hurley, now the Island has something against you.
Poor Charlie died =,( but did he have to? Couldnt he have gone out and then closed the door? Or better yet, go out the window? I think he gave up too quickly. And what's with this Russian guy? Is he some kind of terminator? He has a smegging harpoon in him and where the hell did he get that 'nade?
Lets hope Desmond can get back on the beach and warn the Losties. Now that Ben is captured who's going to lead the Others?
I bet some of you thought Jack was going to get shot, didnt think Locke would turn up and stab her in the back. Ouch!
This Island really doesnt want to be found and is using Locke to stop it from happening. Or maybe this is all Jacobs doing, that's why he needed Lockes help.
So these flashbacks, were they flashbacks? I suppose they had to have been because his dad was still alive. But at the end of the episode I was confused. It was all pitch black so I couldnt see anyone. All I know is that for some reason Jack keeps flying around on planes in Asia hoping they'll crash and he was talking to some woman called Kate, telling her they have to go back. Is this the future? Is that Kate from the Island? How odd. Infact earlier in the episode I wondered if they would do any flashforwards, but then I remember they did a bit with Desmonds future predictions.
So it's not Pennys boat afterall? We should have known as her people were in a plane not a boat. Do you think they can follow the transmition now that Charlie has contacted her?
I'm real confused I dont know who's the good guys and who's the bad guys, I guess no one is. I wonder what these new Hostiles will be like and why they're so keen to find the Island.
EDIT:
Also does this means some of Jacks of flashbacks were infact flashforwards? Like when he got that tattoo? I remember we couldnt fit that in anywhere, all we knew was that Jack suddenly had a changed attitude and didnt care about something. I dunno :/ I cant remember what the fortune teller woman said to him.
So who was in the coffin? Michael?
Here's a screencap of the newspaper clippping.
