There was…an incident

I’ll be watching the Lost finale pretty soon, so I’m going to make some predictions, if you’re going to make any comments, please leave ‘em spoiler free for a few hours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Either Jin or Sayid will die in the finale. Sayid’s story is easily over by now, and after Sun & Jin reunite there’s a possibility that he could die. Darlton have said that the death in the finale, will be “reminiscent of Charlie’s death”, and I know people that are still torn up by that, so I’m not sure that they can top the emotion that some people felt to his death with those two characters, but I think they will be able to top it with:

Juliet has become a good character over the past two seasons. Silently snuck in during season three, she wasn’t liked initially, but avoided a Nikki/Paulo situation by allying herself with Jack, and now she’s allied with Sawyer. Suliet (the Sawyer & Juliet relationship) has been fitting during the season, and I was glad that she has come in to her own as a character. Unfortunately it does remind me of Charlie, wherein I disliked his character starting around season three and then Desmond said he’d die, and I was intrigued and then saddened when he did drown. Don’t let Juliet die.

Onwards to people’s plans – Jack’s plan first:

Jack plans to detonate Jughead, but as we’ve seen in the trailers, he only needs a small part of it in order to get the job done. He plans to follow Faraday’s instructions from his journal and stop Oceanic Flight 815 from crashing. Would this erase all the stuff they’ve been through on The Island? I don’t think so. No matter what happens, it’s your present. Even if they end back up on the plane and don’t crash, he’ll still remember everything that happened there. Jack’s plan will not work.

I’m disappointed that the reason he came back to The Island seems to be for Kate. I’m not a big shipping fan, maybe some people still appreciate Jate & Skate, but I’m not one of them. I was fed up of it around the middle of season three. Though I think Jack’s plan won’t work, something will happen with Jack and co. to cause The Incident. I’m just not sure what.

Now, on to Locke’s plan:

To kill Jacob. WHAT?! Can you even kill Jacob? As we saw, Locke seems to be the only person who has ever truly seen Jacob, yet he is assigning Ben the task of killing him. My friend @benjirino thinks that by “killing” Jacob, it may instead free him from where he is trapped, as he asked Locke to “help me”.

However, Richard seems to be reacting a little strange in a trailer for the episode, claiming that there can only be “one leader of The Island”  so whether it allows whoever kills Jacob to become the new leader of The Island or if it allows them to take Richard’s position of “advisor” which he’s held for a very, very long time. Locke’s plan will succeed.

I know the episode is going to be amazing, and I only have a few more hours to wait and see it.

Character Look-Backs #2

Jack: "He told me that it was my fault for leaving..."

Welcome to the second part of the character look backs, which take a travel back in time and try to glimpse in to the future for the character in question. For this segment, we look at our resident Iraqi and our loveable redneck.

James "Sawyer" Ford started off as a conman off the Island, and wound up in love twice. Once with Cassidy Phillips and now with Katherine Austen. A man on a mssion to get revenge on the man who conned his parents, who was known by another name, and was connected to a fellow Lostie. In season three, he finally managed to get back at Antony Cooper whom he strangled with some chain from The Black Rock. He had a strange journey in season four, odd times with Kate, and then protecting Claire and almost becoming an Oceanic Seventh. I think that season five will see him take on a semi-leader role as Hurley appointed him to the post briefly when Jack was away. As for the whole Jate/Skate/Jacket arguments, I could not care either way who ends up with who in that warped triangle with extra twizzles on the end. I'm unsure as to what loose ends we really have left to wrap up in his story besides his daughter. I'm also unsure as to what the reaction would have been were he Jeremy Bentham, the man in the coffin.

Now on to Sayid, who went from the "terrorist" everyone assumed had something to do with the crash, to the guy that every Lost fan would want on their side in a fight. Smart, cunning and in Shannon's eyes, sexy, Sayid took a supposed dark turn after leaving The Island and ended up working for Benjamin Linus. The true nature of why he keeps working for him is not yet unveiled to us. In season five, I think he will help everyone else in their return to The Island, as he already recruited Hurley to join him. Though as he and Locke never saw eye to eye I am confused as to why he is returning. Nevertheless, I am sure I will enjoy the journey.

That being said, come back again when I shall chat about two more characters, though am currently unsure which two.

What I expect to happen in The Shape Of Things To Come

Real time

- Ben will try and influence the Smoke Monster in to saving Alex and killing off a lot of Freighters
- Richard is the one on the phone being safely off Island calling Ben to tell him "CODE 14-J"
- We will see Others moving around in the jungle
- Juliet will try and detach herself from Jack
- Jack will then fall ill after being poisoned by one of the Freighters (Poisoned his bottle of water or something)

Flashforward

- Ben will recruit Sayid at Nadia's funeral to come and work for him to pay back for what he's done (On and off Island)
- We'll be unsure as to whether it's a Ben or Sayid episode at first
- We'll have a "...What?" moment at the end of the flash
