Star Wars by Claire C.

Ok, science geeks, here's my theory.

Has it ever occured to anyone that Lost is a whole star wars ripp off? Jack is Luke. Kate is princess L. Sawyer is Han Solo.

Jack's father Christian kinda looks like that dark haired guy talking to Jacob. I believe he got out of the island and found himself a hottie (jack's mom) and began to have a life and grow old. When his plan to die (in australia) and come back to life at the island did not work out the first time, he probably figured he needed a body. He begins to manipulate Jon because Jon is the only true believer in the island. In season 5 Jon falls for Christian's plan to go back to the island to bring back the oceanic 6.

Meanwhile, Eloise Hawking, who is the leader of the island when she was young, seems to have left the island for unknown reasons. I believe she was also manipulated by Christian(dark haired guy) a long time ago. Flash forward many years later and she is tellling Jack to get something of his father's and put it on Jon.

Hence, Jon becomes Christian/dark haired guy when they crash the second time at the island. And then in Season 6 it becomes "Jack, I am your father" sort of thing.

If you recall that in season one, there was a reference to Jack by Hurley as a jedi.

Anyway, Jacob becomes an obi kenobi spiritual character. Jack and Jon/Christian/dark hair guy fight in the end. Jack wins, becoming new prince of the island.

The end
