If I'm remembering properly, when he went to the hotel during that episode, it was Oct, 2005. The plane crash and all the island time as we know it happened in 2004. Perhaps this goes with the island moving in time theory... The thing I kept thinking of after Ben “moved” the island was a previous episode where we saw him in the desert in his parka.

Wow, wow.. I lost a few minutes after that b/c I was bawling. Maybe I bought the whole moving the island thing a little more than others. Turning that funky wheel he initiated that huge magnetic white-out thing, like way back when when they didn't type the numbers in the computer. If it affected time I guess essentially the island could disappear b/c the helicopter was no longer as close to the island as it was a minute or so before?? We know that the time on the island is off compared to actual time. Didn't they note that in calling the freighter that one time? I too think Jin is alive. What else would finally convince Sun to go back to the island? If Jack figures out that Jin is alive, that would convince her. But from there I'm essentially as lost as anyone.

I have one HUGE question though- that electromagnetic force that appeared when Ben was moving the island is the same one that appeared in the end of season 2 when Desmond blew up the hatch. So here is my theory: Did they move the island (in time or space or both) when they blew up the hatch? That would make sense as to why Penny's men found it right after that happened. Maybe each Dharma station has the ability to move the island once. However the problem with this is that Ben said the person has to leave and never go back (but he could be lying, it is Ben after all) but Desmond doesn't leave. Also Penny's men could have just found it cause the island sent out an electromagnetic force. Does these theory even make sense? Let me know what you think. I loved the finale! I think Michael is definitely dead (cause of Christian appearing to him) and Jin could be alive, that would be a nice surprise for Sun when they eventually go back to the island. I thought the whole episode was awesome and I am really excited for next year! I love your recap GMMR and everyone’s comments are great.

Sure earlier in the season you see Sun at his grave, but if he was not recovered because he was "deep in the ocean with the rest of the plane," then it was an empty casket. And they did not show Jin actually dying. He was just standing on the platform looking up at the helicopter and that was the last we saw of him. If he were to really have died, the writers would have shown him dying, just like with the rest of the characters - Claire being the only exception/flaw in my idea.

Originally kept by his disciple Dr. Southwood Smith,[11] it was acquired by University College London in 1850. The Auto-icon is kept on public display at the end of the South Cloisters in the main building of the College. For the 100th and 150th anniversaries of the college, the Auto-icon was brought to the meeting of the College Council, where he was listed as "present but not voting".[12] Tradition holds that if the council's vote on any motion is tied, the auto-icon always breaks the tie by voting in favour of the motion. The Auto-icon has always had a wax head, as Bentham's head was badly damaged in the preservation process. The real head was displayed in the same case for many years, but became the target of repeated student pranks including being stolen on more than one occasion. It is now locked away securely." I don't think that body was Locke's at all. And Jack may even know that... I thought it was a damn good episode, especially for a season finale.

My big problem, and maybe I'm missing something really obvious, is how they will explain how they themselves survived. I understand their reason for lying to protect the survivors still on the island, but I'm assuming the Oceanic 5's (minus Aaron of course) fake bodies were found on the fake plane as well. So how will that be explained. I think I should watch the press conference again but I don't think anyone even brought up the fake plane in such blatant terms...or that any suspicion of it being a cover-up had been raised yet.

I think that because he knew about the bomb he jumped off. He could feasibly be on the boat with Faraday. That would put two main characters in it and make it more important and worth keeping track of next season. Plus, I like them both, so I want them to still be there. I do not think Locke will spring back to life. Christian didn't. The only one we have really seen come back to life is Mikhail and he, like Michael, probably just wasn't "allowed" to die yet. But Locke may become like Christian and serve his purpose as someone who's "undead" or whatever you want to call him. And in regards to the island, my friend's theory is that it simply moved forward in time, not that it moved in place. They say in the Dharma video that the rabbit will appear to temporarily vanish. The island has probably done the same. Okay, first off, I don’t think Jin is dead. I think that because he knew about the bomb he jumped off. He could feasibly be on the boat with Faraday.

Plus, now we know why Ben was wearing that parka in the middle of the desert. I've been thinking about the use of Boone, Libby, and Charlie -- all thee died on the island and all three have returned as ghosts/dreams. Have any of the other people done the same? I'm not sure what that might mean, but it seems like a possibly connection. One last point -- when Walt made the comment about no one visiting him, I was wondering how he expected them to find him. Were they supposed to just know that he was living with one of his grandmothers, probably under an assumed name? It seems like it would be far easier for him to visit them if he really wanted to see them.

I totally agree with the whole moving the island thing and it's just a little too far fetched for me, even more so then the smoke monster that I still can't seem to get used to. Though I didn't think of the giant mirror idea that would give the illusion that the island was gone, I think out of any explination that one might be more believable. Give me the Remote makes a good point about the nobodies being on the boat with Daniel, extras are pretty dispensible, if you're on a boat with nothing but those nameless people, bet is you're a gonner. I'm honestly thinking that Jin is alive, he made it, what about that episode that showed Sun giving birth and Jin running around looking for a big stuffed panda.....unless that was a flashback, who can tell these days? I agree that people are liking the new bad ass Sun, she's out for revenge for sure, I think the 2 people she blames are her father and Widmore although Jack thinks she blames him, but that's probably because Jack thinks he's supposed to be responsible for everyone and everything that went down on that damn island, at first it was noble but now it's just annoying, get over yourself and stop trying to be such a martyr. Juliet and Sawyer are definitely going to be drinking that Darma Rum together and shacking up on the beach, can't wait to see the reaction of all 4 characters in that twisted love square (Sawyer, Kate, Jack and Juliet) What I want to know is WTF did Sawyer say to Kate before he threw himself off of that helicopter, who would've thought that Sawyer was going to turn into a hero? Although I'll have to say, I always knew he had a heart, he just needs some lovin'. What was up with Walt asking Hurley why nobody came to see him? Selfish much? Maybe next time he'll ask him to give him those millions of dollars he won while they played games and bet on the island, wouldn't surprise me. One thing I really don't get is the people they named that survived the crash...what is that all about? Why pick those people? Boone? Libby? Charlie? Okay, I could maybe see Charlie but why Libby? Maybe because they didn't think that Hurley would be able to keep her a secret since he loved her, oh poor Hurley (sigh) As for Boone, I dont' know why they'd go and say that he was one of the survivors, why not Shannon? oh poor Sayid (another sigh) But hopefully these 8 months will pass by quick and before we know it we'll be here wondering what new things and what more WTF moments we can talk about.

I'm sure he just figured that someone must be getting close to moving the island or maybe he was just worried that Keamy and those military guys would come kill them before he could get everyone off the island.

I think I was taken back by the thought the whole idea about why they had to lie was figured out and explained away in a matter of seconds. It was one of the bigger mysteries people had been wondering about all season. Mark - So glad you decided to leave a comment. I hope we hear from you more in the future. Rose and Bernard are still on the island I think. Had they left with Daniel, I think we would have been shown footage. There was a reason just the nameless survivors were in that last boat. Oh and how pissed is Kate going to be when they back to the island to find out that Sawyer and Juliet are making good use of their island time. you know it's going to happen.

Widmore sent those people on the freighter to get Ben and they had orders to kill any survivors... Widmore (or someone) is the one who went to all the trouble to put a fake plane at the bottom of the ocean. It's in his best interest if no actual survivors ever leave the island and certainly that they never tell the truth about what happened as it'll raise questions about the "fake" truth that was already sold to the press. So, they had to lie to protect themselves. If they're willing to go along with the original lie about the crash, then there's no reason to kill them. That said, what bothers me about the whole thing (though I'm willing to wait and see if they'll explain it because it does seem like an obvious question) is why Widmore would just leave them alone. You'd think he'd want to know exactly what happened since none of his people can come back with a report. Perhaps that's how Daniel will end up playing into things next season?

I was wondering about that Octagon commercial and didn't realize that it was the same time as Comic Con - very interesting. I agree that it will be hard to ever top last year's finale, but I am glad for the answers we did get and the questions that are left to be answered. I think there's still more to the whole issue of why they're lying that probably will be explained more next season (oh, I cannot wait until January!).... and I have to say I am still extremely sad that Jin and Michael were left on the boat when it exploded. But I still have some hope out there that maybe we haven't seen the last of them either, though I have no idea how that would work out. Also, I am a big Desmond/Penny fan so seeing their reunion was definitely sweet - I hope we also see what happened to them once they sent off the Oceanic 6. Obviously Penny still has a major role in everything because of her father, so I'm sure we'll be seeing them again at some point. Overall, I think it was a good finale, though I agree that I was expecting something more along the lines of last year's finale - but still a great episode on its own.

Rose was talking to Miles as the last boat to the freighter left. I'm not convinced that Jin is dead. He was on the deck of the boat and could have jumped before the explosion...crazier things have happened. Maybe he was picked up in the dingy by Faraday? I don't think we should count him out. I think Christian was telling Michael that Joseph and the island didn't need him anymore and he could go...he could finally die. Rose and Bernard are still on the island (I think).

I’m not convinced that Jin is dead. He was on the deck of the boat and could have jumped before the explosion…crazier things have happened. Maybe he was picked up in the dingy by Faraday? I don’t think we should count him out.

Really loved last night's episode but you brought up a lot of good points. It really did work well as a season finale but I think like you I was wanting something more. Glad this recap was waiting for me when I woke up this morning. TV Talk with Ducky and GMMR is the best podcast out there and my new favorite part is Two Idiots Talk Lost. Can't wait to see what you come up with for the finale. Ben Linus in 08!! -Mark Long time reader but this is the first time I’m leaving a comment.
