First off, amazing finale! I really hope that the 6th season premiere starts off with all the 815’ers landing in LAX (and if they were smart, would hit up the In and Out burger place that’s right next to it. : P). I really believe the dude at the beginning of the episode sitting with Jacob is the smoke monster and Christian Sheppard . He waited a long long long time to find his loophole and he finally did with John Locke. This dude went through so so much just to NOT see the advancement of mankind? It is Locke and only Locke who can convince Ben to kill Jacob. Because remember, they can NOT kill each other. As for Jack and the bomb, maybe Miles is right. Maybe all along Jack had to detonate a bomb to cause the “Incident”, because whatever happened, happened. So even though I love the idea of the massive reset button, I still can’t get myself to believe it. As for Zombie Locke, I believe Jacob knew! about this and sent Llana and her team on a mission to find Richard and to warn him about this. I wouldn’t be surprised if Richard kills Zombie Locke in the 6th season. So to conclude, the war Jacob and this dude have is essentially to see the progression of mankind. To see if it can advance and be far more superior to any other species. One side will fight hard for this, while the other side will fight equally as hard against this, no matter how long it takes…
