Does this have anything to do with that flashback last season where Jin really wanted to get that stuffed panda and also at the same time (presumably) Sun was in labour? And it turned out that Jin was actually going to give the panda to his boss's newborn. I wonder maybe Sun hasn't realised that Jin wasn't actually alive and stuff.

I'm not entirely sure what you're question is, but those events were in two separate time sequences. They led us to believe, up until the end, that Jen was alive and bringing the panda to Sun, but then we found he had died on the freighter. Which, now we know wasn't true.

But Sun believes he's dead.

WHY are you spoiler masking something MAJORITY of us have seen 1 YEAR AGO?

Why ARE you SPAZZING out over it? :blink:

Ok, chill out, I changed it straight away after realising that there's no need for the spoiler tags. I'm not an exact regular in this topic.

@Hurmoth Anyways, I was confused and found it hard to remember what actually happened, and thanks to you, I realise that they were at two separate time sequences. And just a little question (sorry for not understanding lost really does do my head in), the events on the island are 3 years behind the events in the outside world right?

And just a little rumour, I don't know if its already been mentioned - the H-Bomb in episode 3 possibly being guarded in the hatch requiring the button presses?

I don't think so. I think that was a flash forward (Sun) and flash back (Jin) because Jin was still working for Suns father at the time.

That's exactly what I was saying: "two separate time sequences"

A flashback and a flash-forward would be two separate time sequences.

Some of the events off the island in the flash-forwards are three years after the 6 left, yes. But some aren't. For example, we see Penny give birth and then we see their son much older.

Who thinks Ben knows Jin is Alive?

I don't see how Ben could possibly know such a thing considering he hasn't been on the island since he turned the frozen donkey wheel.

Remember, he doesn't even know what happened to the others on the island. He asked Jack if Locke told him and when Jack said no, he stated, "well, I guess we'll never know."

Whether or not he's telling the truth is anyone's guess, but I don't see how he could know if Jin is alive or not.

Wait, how did Ben actually get off the island himself? Did he just do some random teleportation via the FDW or something? That guy is still so damn mysterious. And I think it would probably be the wreckage of the freighter (although impossible the island might have 'wanted' to keep him as he must be special to be travelling through time too as well as the other survivors)

MY question is, are ALL the others inhabitants of the island also travelling through time? When richard gave locke the compass, he dissapeared with the next flash, right? That means that that richard belonged to that time, and it was not "present-supposedly-time-travelling richard". Do we know 'when' richard gave the compass to locke? Was it the future? I guess it will all be explained when locke tells richard that we has wounded. But for all we know, that one richard was not moving through time.

No, only the people we're seeing move through time are the ones moving. Richard gave Locke the compass sometime in 2004 after the plane crash, after Boone died, because the small plane carrying Eko's brother was on the ground.

And just a little rumour, I don't know if its already been mentioned - the H-Bomb in episode 3 possibly being guarded in the hatch requiring the button presses?

This was already addressed a few pages back. The h-bomb is not in the hatch.

Don't remember a frozen blue room with a wheel that he turned that has caused the current sporadic events...? And of course it's the wreckage of the freighter Jin was floating on. What else could it possibly be?

The promo I saw after the show had Ben saying that he knows Jin is alive and can prove it to Sun.

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
