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.

    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.

      I lived and breathed MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger. Going to the mess.be website (still online with no changes since 2013) to download display pictures etc. I was a beta tester for Messenger Plus! and spent quite a lot of time on the MsgPlus! forums (a read-only copy is still online at https://shoutbox.menthix.net) Some old Neowin articles also https://www.neowin.net/news/messenger-plus-350/ good times but how time flies

      Well i'll look into a docking station if needed and use that.    Normally i don't usually have all the drives connected at once,  usually once a month to sync the latest files, and then they go back in there storage area
