If you haven't watched the finale, beware; I have put together a bunch of Lost spoilers. After sitting up last night scouring post-finale message boards and fan pages, this is what I think happened:
- The man in black at the beginning of the episode, we'll call him "Esau," is trapped on the island, can’t leave (like Jacob can), but can take the form of people who have died. He is the “smoke monster,” who has also appeared as Jack’s father Christian, Ben’s daughter Alex, and now Locke II.
- Jacob was never in the cabin Ben visited while leading The Others - it was Esau, the mystery smoke monster man.
- Ilana says Frank, the pilot, could be a “candidate” - for what? I think, to replace Jacob, if Jacob did indeed die. Jack could also be a candidate, if he didn’t end up getting nuked. Where Richard now fits into all of this I have no idea.
- I think the bomb pushed the island into more time-shifting. The question is did Jack, Sawyer, Kate, Miles, Hurley, Sayid, et al shift with it before the bomb exploded? (I think they did.) Did Juliet really die? (I think she really did.) And will Sun and Jin be reunited in the present? (I think they will.)
- Interesting note: Ben Linus says “I’m a Pisces,” when he was actually born in December. Does he ever tell the truth?
- Season 1 started with Jack's eye opening, much like it appears in the Final Season Preview (above). I think it's Jack's eye.
- I can’t believe we have to wait until February 2010 to see what happens next!
