Maybe one of them used it as an alias after they got back. Look at the influences listed on that page. It would be a pretty big coincidence that Jeremy Bentham just so happens to seem to fit the name in the paper.

Someone on another forum mentioned that Jacks flash forward could have been a premonition type thing like Desmond.

One of the thing really confusing in this episode is Jack's father issue -

If this is Indeed a Flash Forward, his Dad is Alive?

I suppose.

What threw me for a loop was the flash forward...I was thinking the entire time that the casket was his father, and that Jack would jump on the plane that crashed at any point (Maybe after a shave :rofl:).

My theory on the casket...It's either a survivor of the crash, or some unnamed character. It's hard to tell because Kate did respond to Jack saying he went to this funeral with a puzzled "Why would I do that" (Or something to that effect). Another odd thing was that Jack sort of seemed surprised that nobody came to that viewing of the body (Which could suggest that this is a survivor). And it's good to take note that this death is big enough to be a news Headline) I don't think it's Ben/Locke, because I strongly believe that if/or when they do die...It will be on that island.

As for the deaths, I was pleasantly surprised that nobody of extreme importance died (Locke, Jack, Sawyer, Sayid, Desmond, Etc.). We all pretty much expected Charlie to died, and the rest were all 'Others'.

Death count for this episode: 16 Plus the flashback death (casket)...17.

Will be interesting to see who comes to the island next. However I do think Ben is telling the truth, A much greater 'enemy' will be introduced Possibly even leading to a future cooperation between Ben/Others and Jack/Survivors. It might be far down the road, But it could be possible that have to cooperate together at some point (Obviously it's not going to be soon, considering that they are blowing each other up and killing each other).

Excellent episode...Can't wait for Season 4.

Also a part that I really enjoyed was how sad Jack had become. You could feel sorry for the way he was so important on the Island, And now it seems he is nothing to anyone. Especially when he mentioned how he prays for another crash, and how he flys around from place to place stepping off of the plane for a drink, then getting back on and going home.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but that Nirvana song that future Jack was listening to in the car is called Scentless Apprentice. It is known for the lyrics being based on a book called "Das Parfum" by a German writer named Patrick Suskind. In the book, a child possess an extraordionary scense of smell, but has no human scent of his own. Eventually, he becomes a perfumer's apprentice and creates hundreds of new scents. He is taught by a man named Baldini.

Probably just useless information, but I know how books are sometimes snuck into episodes. On that end, I got nothing. Anybody else think it relates to anything?

      It's interesting to hear that AI growth is not investor driven.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      A few weeks ago, I had this same exact issue. Unfortunately, I didn't think of disabling the Secure Boot option in BIOS. I updated my BIOS to the latest version for my MB and it resolved the issue.
    • USB Port Optimization for best locations for devices

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      I have a partial answer, when I used a multi-port usb hub I had degraded speed performance with 3 large external hard drives connected. I managed to snag a nice (yet older) USB3 based wavelink docking station cheap / used that has x6 usb 3 ports and almost doubled the speed of the external hard drives transfer rate. This looks to be a slightly upgraded model -https://ebay.io/m/LZtjTy
    • Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft is facing a class action lawsuit from shareholders who allege that the company intentionally overhyped its artificial intelligence initiatives to distract from slowing cloud revenue and an exploding infrastructure bill. The complaint was filed in a Seattle federal court by the Michigan-based City of St. Clair Shores Police and Fire Retirement System. The plaintiffs argue that Microsoft’s leadership painted an overly optimistic picture of its Copilot rollout and complex OpenAI partnership. They say that the company did this while downplaying the harsh reality that building the data centers required to power these next-generation tools requires a huge amount of capital. Back at the company's Q2 2026 earnings report from late January, Microsoft revealed that its flagship Azure cloud growth had slipped to 39% (down from 40% the prior quarter) and guided investors to expect a further deceleration to 37% or 38% for the first three months of 2026. Now, under normal circumstances, a slight percentage point drop in cloud growth is a minor operational hiccup. But the Redmond giant paired that guidance with $37.5 billion in quarterly capital expenditures. This figure, which is a 66% year-over-year surge, blew past any analyst estimates at that time. Much of this amount went into buying high-priced GPUs and custom silicon that were required to train and run large language models. This is why the market reacted violently and just a day after its earnings call on January 29, the company's stock plummeted 10%, and wiped out $357 billion of capital in just a trading session. Microsoft is doing better now, though. Its Q3 2026 results showed its run rate from its AI business was hitting $37 billion, proving that enterprise demand for its infrastructure is very real and continuing to scale. Microsoft isn't the only company pouring billions into infrastructure for the AI boom. We've seen most Big Tech companies, including Amazon and Google, also get the results of these investments with stronger-than-ever growth and increased income. via Reuters
