3. How? Doesn’t matter. It ends. Evil wins. Can’t let that happen.
4. So what was going in with the island while the cork was out? It was being destroyed. The “Evil” was escapee and destroying the world. Starting first with what was closest to it; The Island. Possibly, had the cork not been put back the spread of destruction would have continued until the world was gone all together. So think of it was when the plane took off, they would never find a place to land because everything would be gone.
4. What is “The Light”/”The Source”? Its the source of good and evil. Essentialy it’s life and death incarnate.

9. What does that mean exactly? It means its his job is to make sure not only does the Source not escape into the world, but people can not find it either. If they do, they become infected with whatever side of the Source they are more relatable with. It they are good they wouldn’t be after the light to begin so it’s never reacted that way to someone. If they are bad, Evil from the source consumes them.

11. Why is he Evil? Jacob made him touch the Source and evil consumed him.

18. How did the Monster become vulnerable? With the open cork, the Source was escaping. The Source within the MIB left his body to join the escaping source. Making him human again and in the form of whomever he was in that moment; Locke.
19. Why couldn’t the smoke monster fly off the Island? Two reasons; the rules and because he can’t fly over water. Much like hover boards.

33. Who built the Stations? The Dharma initiative. Each station has a different reason for being. Some for study some for other reasons.
34. What is the Swan Hatch? A Dharma Initiative Station built in order to harness and hatch a electromagnet pocket beneath the ground of the island.
35. Why was Desmond in the Hatch? He was shipwrecked on the Island and rescued by a grandfathered Dharma Initiative member who taught him to push the button in the Hatch and then attempted to escape the Island without telling Desmond. Desmond killed him leaving him the sole person to push the botton.
36. What happens when the button isn’t pushed. Electromagnetic energy starts to escape. This also causes an EMP blast.
37. Why did light 815 crash? Desmond failed to push the button just as the plane flew over the island. The EMP caused the crash.
38. What is the donkey wheel? Its a turn table that is linked to the Source of the island. It activates random functions whenever turned. It’s only constant is that it teleports whomever turned it to a desert in Syberia (or wherever).
39. Why did ben turn the Wheel? He thought it would move the Island and help them escape temporarily Widmore and his freighter of bandits.
40. What did it really do? It caused the Island and its current (the people on the island during the wheel turn) to start jumping back and forth through time. This as fatal effect on people causing Charlotte to die.
41. If the Island was jumping through time, why did it dissappear? The island is always moving. Lets say the island was near australia when the wheel was turned. And it jumped to 1980 during its first cycle. And it 1980 the island was near africa. Instantly the island jumped back in time and location to wherever it is in 1980.
42. Why did Locke turn the Wheel? He thought it would take him off the island.
43. What did it do? It took him off the island but also stopped the time jumping and its fatal effect. Leaving the Losties in/wherever the island was after one final flash. 1976 circa.
44. Why did the Oceanic 6 have to return to the island? Ben didn’t know him turning the wheel fixed the time flashes. He thought he needed to bring everyone back in order to fix it. He told them they needed to come back.
45. Why did 5 of the Oceanic 6 come back to the Island? They each had different reason. Jack; thought he had to save the island. Kate; to find Claire. Sun; to find Jin. Hurley; felt guilty about lying and leaving everyone behind. Sayiid; was dragged back by Illana under orders from Jacob.
46. Why couldn’t they go back individually? Simple, the Island wouldn’t allow it. Everyoen needed to come back. Needed to come back together. Much like a security alarm code. The circumastances needed to be right. Hence why Hurley had a guitar and why Locke and Ben came back.
47. Why didn’t Aaron need to come back? Simple, it wasn’t his destiny. The Island simply didn’t need or want him.
48. What is the important of Walt and why is he special? He’s not. He was probably once a candidate but thats about it. Forget about him.
49. What happened when the bomb went off? Nothing. It released the pocket of Electromagnetic Force and the Dharma Initiative built the Hatch in oder to house it. There was no alternate time line created because that is what happened. The Losties where always part of the reason the hatch was built. Like the words in a book, things are the way the are and there is nothing that can be done to change the past or future. The only thing it did was expose them to the Electromagnetic Force and send them back to present time where they belong.
50. What are the side flashes? Purgatory. Everyone in the side flashes are either people stuck in between life and after life because they have not accepted their death or life OR are imaginary people made up by the people in purgatory that they interact with. This means Jack’s son, is a made up image created by the purgatory Jack and Juliette.
51. Why are things in the side flashes the way they are, (like jack having a son, Hurley being successful, and the island being sunk) ? Because the minds of the purgatory people made it that way. Essentially, the world they created with purgatory is their perfect world.
52. Why were people in the Church at the end and what happened to them? Everyone in the Church were the purgatory incarnations of those whose lives revolved around the Island or people on the Island. The island was the most important part of their lives and now that they are dead they had never had closure with with the Island. They had to come together to remember and cope with what happened on the Island in order to move on. They all moved on to the afterlife, whatever you think that means.
53. Why wasn’t Ben in the Church? He wasn’t Ready to move on.
54. Why wasn’t Ana Lucia in the Church? She wasn’t ready to move on maybe her life didn’t revolve around the island it wasn’t what she needed to cope with in purgatory.
55. Why wasn’t Walt in the Church? His life didn’t revolve around the Island. Maybe his purgatory is him accepting the death of his parents. Or maybe he never went to purgatory.
56. If Sawyer, Desmond, Hurley, etc are alive at the end of the show. Why are they in the side flashes? Because they died eventually. The side flashes aren’t happening at the same time as real life. Think of it as a GIGANTIC flash forward taking place after everyone involved has died. So far into the future that even Hurley and and Ben are dead. 57. Why does jack bleed from the neck with no wound in GIGANTIC flash forward right when Locke has a knife point in exact some location on island? THe two worlds are colliding. Jack has the dots to understand that he is in purgatory; Locke, juliet, his fathers death, the neck bleeding. But he has not yet connected the dots to see the big picture. WHy at the same time as on the island? To create suspense a little trick of the trade of cinema. It worked didn’t it.
58. Why cant women give birth on the island without dying? Effects of the Source.
59. If thats ture, Why did Claire and Aaron survive? Simple, she was probably at that point a candidate. Jacob wouldn’t let her die.
60. What is Jacob’s cabin? A red hearing. Ben was full of *beep* His plan was always to move the island. He wanted to trick Locke into going along with it by saying jacob did told him to.
61. So who was in the cabin? The monster in a different form. Most likely Christian Shepard.
62. WHy was Illana in bandages? Dramatic effect. But maybe she was dying and Jacob saved her. Hence why she is helping him later.
63. Did everyone die in the plane crash and what we saw was all purgatory? No, thats stupid. THe only purgatory was after the events of the island. Everything we saw actually happened.
64. Why did Juliet say, “it worked”? She was dying, she saw her purgatory. She mistakenly thought it was an alternate universe. She was wrong.
65. Why did Hurley say “You were a good number two” to ben? Becuase after jackes death and the events of the series. Hurley was the new Jacob and Ben was the new richard. They have their own separate story we never hear. WE have to assume they guarded the island until some new replacements came along. They passed on their duty and eventually died. Now are in purgatory.
