After seeing Follow the Leader a few of my ideas about the characters and uber-plot have changed right around. I am convinced that Locke is Jacob. Here is why:
Richard for me always seemed like the passive good guy. He knew what the island wanted, and he knew that the island was going to get it (with a bit of help along the way). I even thought that maybe Richard was actually Jacob. Then he said that he thinks John Locke is going to be trouble. This is proof for me that the only reason Locke is leader of the others is that John Locke said he would be. Richard knew of Locke from nobody other than Locke himself, and is just like the riddle of the compass that is eternally passed back and forth between the two of them.
Locke, as we’ve seen and as Ben has said, has a communion with the island. He speaks to the island, knows when it’s going to rain, knows where the boars are, knew how to find the hatch, etc.
The incident so far as we’ve been lead to think, is going to be something that Jack does with the bomb. Yet, when Chang says in the swan video that there was an incident, he pauses before saying incident, leading us to believe that it was something that they plain didn’t want to talk about. Actually I believe that the incident was something that the Dharma people just didn’t understand. If the bomb went off in 1977 then the people on the island would have been killed, the barracks would have been destroyed, and the jungle around the swan would have been destroyed. So what is the incident?
The incident is what happens (as hinted to in the season 4 finale, and the orchid orientation video) when John Locke and John Locke come face to face. When John meets Jacob.
John was right when he said that Ben never saw Jacob. The madness that happened in Jacob’s cabin in Man Behind the Curtain (windows smashing etc) happened because present time Locke came in contact with the apparition future Locke, AKA Jacob. This incident causes a rip in time which will stay open long enough for Jack and co to be dragged back to present day. The last comic con video had Chang mention a pin hole in time, and this is going to be it. The hole created by the two Lockes meeting each other.
Locke wasn’t lying when he said to Sun that he would try to find a way to get Jin back to her, and he wasn’t lying when he said to Ben that he was going to kill Jacob. He will get the island’s timeline back to the way it should be, and at the same time he will sacrifice himself again. The last time he died he came back more powerful, and this time he will come back even more powerful – as powerful as Jacob.
