Geekscape Lost Recaps – The Package
Not much this week, but you’ll want to see what caught my attention (other than Sun’s rack).
Sun and Jin
With what we were shown last night, it seems that the marriage between Sun and Jin is directly tied to the existence of the island. With no island in the flash-sideways, there’s no marriage and with no marriage, there seems to be no baby (anymore).
Sayid
Sayid is beginning to lose his humanity, something that apparently NotLocke still has. Sayid is beginning to be a really important figure on the side that’s not Jacob’s. NotLocke sent him on his secret mission, told him to look after the camp, and woke Sayid up first among the knocked out people. Why put Sayid in second in command if he’s losing his marbles? Maybe NotLock knows something we don’t (about Sayid).
Desmond
Obviously, it wasn’t Desmond’s idea to go back to the island.
We know that Widmore is interested in the electromagnetism aspect of the island. The only correlation Desmond has with electromagnetism on the island is the button he pressed every 108 minutes in the Swan station.
THEORIES OF THE WEEK
#1 – Sun isn’t a candidate and Jin isn’t a candidate. Their baby is.
At their wedding, Jacob touched both of them knowing that Sun would conceive on island despite Jin’s infertility issue. In the flash-sideways, their baby will die before it’s born because there is no island for her to protect, and probably because Sun got shot in the stomach.
#2 – Sayid will become the next Smoke Monster.
If Jacob must have a replacement, why shouldn’t the Man in Black have one? With Sayid losing touch of all his emotions, could it be that he’s on his way to becoming the most powerful (and ruthless) Smoke Monster the island has ever seen?! Or is he just becoming a soulless pawn?
