It hit me. There is a cycle. It is the testing of human nature. A group is brought to the Island. They are tested. The Jacob and Esau (for want of a better name) characters represent two sides in the test. They are the island’s surrogates for the test period. I believe that Richard and the Smoke Monster act as referees.
I believe the show will end with nearly the same conversation Jacob and Esau had to start last year’s season finale. Only that conversation will be between John Locke and Jack Shephard. People come, They fight. They corrupt. I don’t know what happens to everyone else. I assume they are released…or become Others. I haven’t worked that part out.
I do believe that the Jacob we saw at the beginning of the episode was post-death, kicked in the fire Jacob. The entity that was Jacob was released from that particular body when he was kicked into the fire. A human body does not burn they way Jacob’s body did in that episode. That is the key. That body was not a normal human body. It takes a very hot fire to consume a human body. That body burned far too quickly. Jacob was free to go back and touch the lives of our Losties. They need to get back on the plane, go through the crash, wind up back on the Island. I believe that Jacob touched the lives of the Losties at the most important turning point of their lives. I have felt since those scenes that the Losties will return to that time with memories intact. They will all find their way back together and back on Flight 815. They will establish a different relationship with the Others. This will change the game.
If Jacob isn’t trying to return them to their lives at that moment, then I believe he may have somehow hidden himself within them. After the bomb and the Losties are back in their time and are able to act on Jacob’s behalf. They are the ones that are coming. Jacob will somehow use their bodies the way he was using the body we saw as Jacob in this cycle. Esau has chosen his next form in John Locke. The force that makes it impossible to kill each other directly is part of both of them. Esau thought that with Jacob gone, he would have full control of the force. But he was wrong; Jacob moved himself and the force to our Losties.
As for Juliet, she came to the island of her own free will. So she will be there again. If the cycle is allowed to move forward with different choices made at certain junctures. Sawyer will have his second chance at happiness. He will have to romance her all over again. That is why Elizabeth Mitchell will not be needed until later in the season.
I believe that this cycle will repeat.
