I think the flash sideways are what if's when jack takes up jacob's role. The only thing i have to back this up is that he is now searchding for candidates because he is slowly meeting them off the island and touching/ helping them in some way to influence them.
Charlie: saved his life/ gave him second chance.... but he is going to prison so might rule him out.
John Locke: offered consulation/ told him to believe in miracles knowing the other time john locke and his belief in faith/ wanting to give him second chance... handed him the card.
Kate: Gave her the pen on the plane/ give her second chance
Anyone had any thoughts about this?
