A co-worker of mine has a theory (don't we all?):

The Others all have some sort of "power" and that is why they like Locke, he seems to have the power to heal. Richard has the power of long life (immortality). Ben has the power of telekinesis (thats how he manifested his mother as a child). But he's going nuts and in fact "created" jacob. In other words there is no Jacob, it is just Ben being crazy. That is why they really wanted Walt as well.

Not a well fleshed out theory, but has some interesting points.

I wonder if Richard is part of some group who crashed on the island years ago (like on the Black ship?)... Just how long has he been there?

I was discussing this earlier with Peewee that Richard could be hundreds of years old...I mean he might of been around since the days of the toe statue...

Everything fits except the Jacob part. I still think Jacob is a real person. The writers have said that Jacob is a real person in the podcast haven't they? Rappy, help me out here :p

Yeah they said just because he wasnt credited doesnt mean he doesnt exist and as we saw last night in some extent there he was but why was he invisible and how can he make a whole house shake...

You see my theory and take it for whats its worth is that Jacob is a Hostile always has been looking at his clothes it fits that and for the whole time he has been gifted with a power and no other hostile has so it makes him special so he is the leader but seeing as Ben saw his dead mother and maybe noone else can see Jacob then its only Bens vision....tho Alex said Locke may need a gun....christ I am confused....I want answers!!!

Jack also thought he was seeing his dad, Locke saw Boone, Eko saw Yemmi, Shannon and Sayid saw Walt (though he isn't dead), Hurley saw Dave, though I'm still not sure if that was Hurley going nuts or seeing things like other people saw, Kate and Sawyer saw the horse, though they could touch it (and it was likely the same horse that the black woman whom Mickael shot rode).

There may be something to the idea of special people having gifts of some sort. Walt possibly has a gift of imaging something being there and *poof*, it's there. It was also asked if Walt was seen elsewhere on the island. Walt also communicated to his dad at the computer... let us not forget that!

Ahhh I want more answers too!

By the way, did anyone else crap themselves when Ben's mum appeared at the window? Scared the hell out of me that :p

I just think it is totally bad ass that Uncle Rico is Ben's dad :)

He is also the same guy who played Lazlo Hollyfeld in Real Genius

Oh so that's where i remember him from! How much you wanna make a bet he could have thrown a football over them mountains? :p Horace was also the guy from Green Mile.

Good episode though. then ending was so shocking that i got straight onto messenger to get some info from Rappy!

      VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary to compete against AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update bug that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
