This is not a theory per se’ more of an observation:
I think we are all confident that Darlton do not do things without reason. Nothing is said without somewhere, buried deep, a hint or an allusion to what’s coming. I think ComiCon gave us a little more than what we think we saw.
The surprise “gift” that they gave out when someone said the code word “Claire” was more than just a throw away. I think there is some major significance to the bird, or at least the episode that it originated from. Par Avion – episode S3-12. At the time, I think it was a good episode. We got to see The Flame and Mikhail and the losties trek in the jungle to rescue Jack.
I re-watched that episode yesterday (just picked a random ep. from the DVR), I saw 2 very strange scenes. The first was Kate talking to Danielle Rouso. Kate asked why, when Rouso was told that her daughter was among the “others”, did Rouso not ask a single question about her. Her response was something to the effect of if she (Kate) saw Jack 16 years in the future and he didn’t know who she was, would she want to know about him – seems to me a bit of foreshadowing…
The second conversation was Mikhail responding to questions from the group of Lock, Kate, Rouso, and Sayid. Mikhail, sarcastically said something like “Sayid Jarra – I know nothing of you, or Kate Austen, I don’t know you (naming them by their full names) and then getting to Locke and saying “But John Locke, you I vaguely remember……” he was about to continue but was cut off.
Another side observation; If you look at Lockes actions – he doesn’t seem “himself”. He seems to be very tough, and purposeful – similar to his actions and demeanor after his return to the island in season 5. Without thought, he blows up the flame station and later pushes Mikhail through the sonic fence. I just found those actions strange (for that time).
I think Darlton put this out there to show us a clear plan was in the works from day one (as I believe every die hard fan believes) but for the non-believers, proof.
