ignore the theoretical plot line below

I would delete it. It's inaccurate and its presence will only serve to confuse those who have watched the episode and are looking for confirmation for ideas, observations, and hunches.

I strongly disagree. There is a big possibility that this was one of the earlier drafts for the finale. It probably should be moved to a page of its own, but definitely not deleted.


Kelvin is Joe Inman?

Is this confirmed? If so; cool!

No, just theorized because both characters are being played by Clancy Brown.--Isotope23 05:15, 18 May 2006 (PDT)

I read somewhere that he's a twin, I don't recall how reliable the source was, but if there is a 'bad twin' thing going on on the island. Also, Joe Inman was a bit of b*st*rd but Desmond's decription of Kelvin makes him seem, nicer, and he seems (in my memory) to almost reminisce about his relationship with Kelvin.. Could be wrong though, we'll see soon! I was certain we'd see Joe Inman again though, I have a theory he is some sort of DHARMA recruiter or 'temporal engineer' type guy, given the way he said to Sayid "one day you'll need to know something.. and now you'll be able to get it", it makes me think that he was training Sayid for the island. --Rayne 15:39, 21 May 2006 (PDT)

In the episode, he does make the comment to Desmond, "I used to be a spook, I know when someone is following me"...more of a definitive link that the two are the same? PanSavant 22:06, 24 May 2006 (PDT)
And he also made mention he joined Dharma "because men followed him", which would go inline with Joe Inman's military position. I'd say it is a pretty reasonable guess that Joe Inman is the same person as Kelvin and is just using an assumed name for some reason. I'd leave this as a theory though until it is actually confirmed.--Isotope23 05:17, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

The Button

I think that when the clock reaches zero, we'll see the glyphs, hear the cranking, maybe even see the map. Then, my guess is that it'll stop there and say LOST. What do you guys think will actually happen when it hits zero? DeGroot

My theory it's some sort of doomsday device, that triggers a catastrophe whenever the button isn't pushed, with the severity of the catastrophe increasing each time? It seems to me that the button is meant to be pushed by someone who is aware I bet that a machine could easily be setup to 'push the button' if it was neccesary. So for some reason it is necessary to have people do it either - it's an experiment or - it's designed so that in certain circumstances, the button isn't pushed. If you get me.. I don't know if we'll see anything.. I hope we do though, that button has been confusing me since we first saw it.

We all know that some great unveiling will be about to occur when we get hit in the face by 'LOST'.--Rayne 15:39, 21 May 2006 (PDT)

Isotope23! SPOILER TAG! --Keyes 08:40, 21 May 2006 (PDT)

I still like my original theory from way back. If the button isn't pushed, all the hatches get locked down and some electromagnetic machine spins up and effectively screws up the instrumentation on any plane or boat in the area, causing it to crash on the island. This is how Darhma gets their new "lab rats" to experiment on.--Stew Erickson 05:56, 22 May 2006 (PDT)

Interesting theory...--Isotope23 07:08, 22 May 2006 (PDT)

But Desmond has been down there for sometime now (what was it, three years?). And he has been pushing the button every 108 minutes. So how could the plane crash be caused by someone not pushing the button if he pushed the button? Jericho

Edit. Hahaha! Well that certainly proved me wrong! And just to prove my ignorance, they killed my three favorite characters! Touche, Lost, touche! Jericho 11:16, 24 May 2006 (EST)
YES! I knew it! :P --Stew Erickson 04:05, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

Possible Plot Outline

I removed this from the main page because, frankly, the show hasn't aired yet so this is all theoretical. If it had been presented as theory, I'd have kept it on the main page, however it is presented as if it's fact and therefore might be misleading appearing on an episode page... --Xsg 16:29, 21 May 2006 (PDT)

P.S. - To whoever wrote this... If it turns out to be true, thank you so much! I wrote up the plot for the last episode... it takes hours of work to do this. --Xsg 21:58, 21 May 2006 (PDT)

Nuvola warning Spoiler alert! Nuvola warning


Please note that the legitimacy of this plot outline is disputed.

Survivors think they are being rescued when they see a boat. Jack swims out to the boat. Desmond is inside the bunker. They bring him ashore. Desmond has tons of booze with him, and a dark secret. Jack asks him where he was, and what he did.... During the 23 days he was gone, Desmond managed to fix his sailboat and sail off the island. Jack asks him what he isn't telling them.


We get FLASHBACKS of Desmond's life before the island, and when he first crashed there. Notable points here would be that Desmond was married to a girl named Penny, Libby was married to Charles Widmore, and Desmond borrowed Libby's boat for 200 grand for his race around the world. Kelvin finished the glow-in-the-UV-light map in the hatch; his original partner started it. And Kelvin is, or was, the twin of a certain Joe Inman, CIA man from Sayid's flashbacks. We see Kelvin drag Desmond to the hatch, type in the numbers and press the button, show Desmond the film, and Desmond begins pushing the button as well.


Present day: At night, Jack and Sayid come up with a plan involving Desmond's boat. Desmond disappears off into the jungle, heading for the hatch. The next day, Jack and gang load up to go. The 5 survivors depart. Charlie tells Hurley good luck. Michael leads them off. In the hatch, Eko continues to push the button. Locke enters and they talk. Locke laughs that he still pushes the button. Eko says he is a man of faith. Jack Kate Michael Sawyer and Hurley make their way though the jungle. They begin to pass though what Hurley says is the Dark Territory. There are MANY fallen trees around them. They camp for the night. Michael talks about how these people have harmed the survivors, particularly the 5 of them. He talks about how they killed Shannon, Libby, etc. Locke and Eko are having their discussion in the hatch. Locke argues with Eko on how he thought this place was destiny, that the island built him up just to knock him down, and how it is all an experiment. Locke tells him he plans to see what happens when the button reaches zero once and for all. He wants to make sure he is right. Eko doesn't agree with this. Desmond reaches the hatch and talks with Locke and Eko inside. He seems pissed. He asks Locke if he continued to push the button, to which Locke says yes. Desmond doesn't believe Locke.


Atop one of the hills, Jack and gang find a big pile of tubes from the Pearl hatch. Michael tells them they aren't far now and they must keep going. He leads them to the the spot where Zeke and The Others captured him. They begin to hear whispering. LOTS of it this time. Jack yells out that it's a trap when he spots one of them in the trees. They all open fire, it seems as if they are surrounded. There is another lockdown inside the hatch. We don't know why, but could this be some sort of final test? Locke is trapped inside the geodome with Desmond. Eko is locked out. Eko yells at Locke that he can't let the timer reach zero, but Locke has other ideas. The timer is at 107 minutes. Bernard talks with Claire and the baby, inquiring on what the vaccine is for. Claire explains to him, they bond. Sayid talks with Jin and Sun. He formulates a plan with Jin. Sun translates for him. Jin understands. Eko seeks Charlie's help on the situation in the hatch. He rushes to the beach and tells him they need to go gather the dynamite Charlie knows where it is. In the Hatch, Desmond and Locke argue about the button. Locke tells Desmond the button is not real, that it was all an experiment of the Dharma Initiative. Desmond screams at him, "Don't tell me it isn't real!"


Desmond tells Locke that he sailed away from the island, and was going to get them all rescued. But when he reached land, he discovered THERE WAS NO HUMANITY left. Desmond says that the entire world was not there. There was absolutely nothing. He believes that the button is to blame, recalling what the original Dharma film said. Locke is shaken by this, but thinks Desmond is crazy. The timer is at 43 minutes by now. Eko and Charlie gather dynamite from the stash and run to the hatch. Eko plans to blow the blast door. Charlie thinks he's off his rocker. Eko believes Desmond that the timer DOES do something when it reaches zero.


Meanwhile Jack and gang are all been captured by The Others. They are being led back to the village. Jin and Sayid have taken Desmond's boat and followed Rousseau's map along the shoreline to where Sayid believes the location of The Others could be. They spot the giant rock with the hole in it. Sayid sneaks up along the rocks with his gun, Jin trails him. To make it short, they interrupt the party and attack The Others. A fight ensues. Sawyer fights Zeke, and rips his fake beard off. SAYID IS SHOT, straight in the chest and falls back into the water. As chaos ensues in the camp, Michael sneaks up to the door in the cliff. There's a Dharma symbol resembling a door. One of the guards blocking the door is shot. Michael enters in and closes it behind him. Inside this room is the BIG reveal.


Back at the hatch, the timer is at 23 minutes. Eko and Charlie enter in with the dynamite. Locke and Desmond argue inside as the timer counts down past 15 minutes, 8 minutes, and 4 minutes. The beeping starts up loudly. Eko blows the blast doors; Charlie is knocked against the cement wall, unconscious. Eko runs in to push the button before the time runs out. Locke has knocked Desmond out unconscious with Eko's Jesus stick. Locke and Eko come to fists. Locke beats Eko to the ground. He takes the stick and SMASHES THE COMPUTER. It's busted, so now there's no stopping the timer. At the Others camp, Jack, Kate, Sawyer, and Hurley seem to have overpowered The Others. Inside The Door, Michael finds Walt but is confronted by the FAKE HENRY GALE. Fenry tells Michael everything about what he is seeing right now, which involves three other people, the plane crash, Hanso, and a key. There's a SINGLE monitoring TV inside this room as well. It's a monitor for Station 3, The Swan. Fenry tells Michael that he needs to leave the island now if he wants to escape with Walt. The boat is ready for him at a back exit. The timer at the hatch reaches ZERO, and something does happen. Michael and Walt watch what happens as they escape the island with the boat, leaving everyone else behind. If we are to believe Desmond, they will find nothing else left.

--Dow lord 16:11, 24 May 2006 (PDT) Nice theory, but I think Eko will use use the dynamite for the magnetic part of the hatch, hence him discovering it in Three Minutes.

Wow i'm surprised how similar that is to the real plot and yet so very wrong in many places, like sayid getting shot. I'm very curious how this info was aquired. BastionKane

Yeah I was thinking that too as I was watching the episode... some stuff was right, but much was completly off. The stuff that was correct was by and large content that was featured in promos, oficial blurbs on the episode, or leaked as spoilers elsewhere. My guess is someone saw an advance copy of the promo and pieced this together with existing spoiler info, then filled in the blanks with guesses (incorrect guesses at that).--Isotope23 05:15, 25 May 2006 (PDT)


I added the last part of the plot where we see the scientists calling miss widmore... My english isn't that good and feel free to edit it to make it more correct -- Bramme 05:14, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

The Key

Does anybody else think that there's a small inconsistency in the fact that Desmond had no problem insterting the key into the failsafe device, despite the fact that it appeared to be a standard metal key? Shouldn't it have been ripped out of his hand by the intense electromagnetic pull that yanked the device's cover away as soon as he opened it? -TDK 06:16, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

Maybe so. But perhaps the key was made of metal resistant to magnetic charges, or of a different polarity, or something. Rickyrab 06:27, 25 May 2006 (PDT)
Like aluminum, stainless steel, etc. Many common metals are not attracted to magnetic fields. --Mramsey 06:32, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

The Researchers

Is there anyone who can say for sure that these men speak portuguese??? -- Bramme 06:42, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

My fiancee (who was born and raised in Ukraine/Russia) said it was Russian. --Just me :-) 07:26, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

Walt

I could be wrong, but did Faux Henry say/imply that they got more than they bargained for when they picked up Walt? That could be why they're sending him away. He's too powerful (psychic or whatever) for them to experiment on, but he's still untrained, so he's not a danger to anyone outside.

--Jujo. 09:50, 25 May 2006 (EST)

White glow - explosion - sound whatever

shouldn't there be a new page about the explosion, with some separate theories and stuff? -- Bramme 07:00, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

Yeah, defiently. But what to call it?--Piscez 07:02, 25 May 2006 (PDT)
I would suggest "The Discharge" or maybe the fail safe? isn't there allready a page called fail safe??? let's have a look -- Bramme 07:08, 25 May 2006 (PDT)
Yes there is: Fail Safe though the original writer presumes it has smth to do with the explosion... Maybe go for discharge? and we can merge it later? -- Bramme 07:09, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

The Listening Station?

We should create a page for the Portuguese guys in the artic/antartic listening station, but I can't think of a name for it. We don't know where it is, or who they are. Maybe just wait for the official podcast and see how they refer to it?--Piscez 07:01, 25 May 2006 (PDT)

Go ahead and create the article, maybe call it listening station. We can rename it if we learn the name next season. Mescad 07:03, 25 May 2006 (PDT)
