I think he is trying to eliminate certain candidates...or until there is one who wants to be the new Jacob. The sooner he finds a new Jacob, the sooner he can home. Who knows, but I love this show!

The numbers indeed. Wonder if that is the final time we see them. Also l wonder if their presented purpose, being just an assigned number for the potential candidates.

Anyone notice the scales with the black and white stones. Evil Locke tosses the white one into the sea. when asked why he states "inside joke". I wonder a few things about the significance of this. First the obvious. For the fans? Or Presumably the scales being representative of justice, or balance of good and evil. But the material or the mineral of the stones caught my eye. The white had the crystalline structure of the cave were the time machine mechanism was. The black looked like the volcanic rock that controls or impedes the smoke monster.

The number beside Jack's name was 23. Psalms 23-1: The lord is my shepherd.

Sawyer almost fell off of Jacobs ladder.

All the names on the cave walls were men.

Strong biblical ties here....This might be a controversial last season....I love it.

I think they both have to be in place for the island to function and them to leave. Jack and Sawyer will replace Jacob/MiB and remain there forever. Can't you see Sawyer sitting on the beach and saying to Jack that he wants to kill him?

Just some random thought/questions/comments on this episode:

- The boy in the woods. That was supposed to be Jacob, right? What was the significance of Sawyer being able to see him (and Richard not being able to see him)? Why does Richard seem so clueless? By the way, weren't there scenes in earlier seasons where Jacob was already dead? Like when they went out to that little shack in the woods or something? My memory is pretty hazy on some of the back story.

- So Kate's name wasn't written in the cave? Did I miss that? Were all of the numbers accounted for by the men only?

- As for the rocks on the scale, I took that to represent Jacob and Smokey balanced against each other. With Jacob now "dead" Smokey tossed his rock into the ocean. It's like Jacob and Smokey have been sitting in the cave playing chess or whatever.

- Smokey told Sawyer "I used to be a man, just like you." That's pretty interesting.

- Now that Smokey has chosen Locke as his vessel or whatever, he is stuck there apparently. Even though he apparently doesn't have any difficulty still turning into the smoke monster. What the heck is up with all the mechanical sounds accompanying the smoke monster? Definitely makes it seem technology based (rather than spiritual).

- Was anyone else taken by surprise at Ben's surprise confession to killing Locke? I didn't see that one coming.

Appearantly the dark, creepy guy was using the cabin. Jacob was never there. His "bodygaurds" discovered this and burned the shack.

All men. No Kate.

- As for the rocks on the scale, I took that to represent Jacob and Smokey balanced against each other. With Jacob now "dead" Smokey tossed his rock into the ocean. It's like Jacob and Smokey have been sitting in the cave playing chess or whatever.

Indeed.

:popcorn:

I'm sure time will tell.

What will they do? Arrest him and give him trial by jury? I think Ben is in "F it" mode.

:victory:

I am not so sure that the young boy is Jacob at this point, although certainly a strong possibility. He had the look of the young actor who played Sawyer as a kid in some of the flashbacks.

I'm not sure about Kate's name I think I saw it but without any assigned number would have to watch it again in slow-motion.

Smokey also told sawyer that he just wanted to go home. Is home the future, heaven, hell, a lost civilization or somewhere else in time?

I think the young boy is Jacob...Because he said "remember you cant kill him" referring to Sawyer, I think.

I Tivo'ed it and went back.....There were no women's names on the cave wall.

I think that Smokey wanting to go home means that he wants to go back in time to his home. Remember when Sawyer asked him if he had ever read Steinbeck, he said it was a little after his time. I take it smokey was in the same position that Sawyer is in now....I take it that at one point Smokey was recruited in a similar fashion.

Who knows though.

One of the first episodes of Lost Season 1:

Locke was teaching Walt how to play backgammon. "One side is light, and the other dark."

I guess the creators knew what they were doing the whole time.

I think it was supposed to be Jacob. They seemed to have a history judging by their interaction with each other. Not sure why Sawyer was able to see him though. Hugo was able to see him also just after Smokey killed him. Maybe he is just showing himself to the numbered people.

- So Kate's name wasn't written in the cave? Did I miss that? Were all of the numbers accounted for by the men only?

It was unclear to Smokey whether or not the name Kwon represented Sun or Jin.

- As for the rocks on the scale, I took that to represent Jacob and Smokey balanced against each other. With Jacob now "dead" Smokey tossed his rock into the ocean. It's like Jacob and Smokey have been sitting in the cave playing chess or whatever.

Balance between good and evil is how I took it. Smokey killed Jacob so he was able to throw the balance in favor of evil (black rock).

- Smokey told Sawyer "I used to be a man, just like you." That's pretty interesting.

- Now that Smokey has chosen Locke as his vessel or whatever, he is stuck there apparently. Even though he apparently doesn't have any difficulty still turning into the smoke monster. What the heck is up with all the mechanical sounds accompanying the smoke monster? Definitely makes it seem technology based (rather than spiritual).

Those sounds have always been there and I still don't know what they mean.

- Was anyone else taken by surprise at Ben's surprise confession to killing Locke? I didn't see that one coming.

Loved it!!! Lapidus was funny too!

Indeed. So many twist and turns. Still enough shows left to be currently misdirecting what the final result will be though. So many more things need to be made know. I have accepted the fact that we may very well not know the true meaning until the very last scene of the series, a real possibility. I have about a half a dozen outlined possibilities wafting around in my subconsciousness and I just have yet to be able to narrow it down. The very thing that's great about this show is the thing making me wary of taking any one thing for grandite.
