So... Tuesday's episode:
Who was the kid?
Whose list was on the cave ceiling?
Do the names have The Numbers next to them... or do the numbers have The Names next to them?
Who wants to see a spin-off show about Locke and Ben as history teachers?
If the alt2004 is "course-correcting" as we watch it... is it possible that like Desmond who was on the plane and then off of it again- that Locke actually DID go on the Walkabout when he was telling Boone about it and then as the plane landed (and Desmond had disappeared) that his legs stopped working, he needed the wheelchair, and he, at that point, didn't go on the walkabout.
If Cooper didn't push him out the window to cause his back injury/paralyzation... what did?
Is the alt2004 timeline different not only because of the bomb, but did Jacob not touch the Losties in that timeline? Is that why Locke is happy, Hugo is lucky, Kate didn't kill her father, and Sawyer (potentially) is not a Con man?
(Who wants to see a spin-off show where every week Sawyer tries to Con Hurley out of his millions, but is foiled until the next week?)
If the Valenzetti equation is about manipulating the "variables" (4 8 15 16 23 42) to prevent the end of the world, does the number next to the names in the cave mean that those 6 people are the actual "variables" that must be manipulated to prevent the end of the world? Without Jacob's touch, are those people unmanipulated and will the alt2004 timeline end with the end of the world?
