They met at the crash and Jack lead John to help the trapped person. After that, they went their own ways, following their own directions, and didn't like each other very much--at least Jack didn't like Locke; Locke seemed aloof towards Jack. Then they had their confrontation after Boone's death (similarly as bad as when Jack tries to call with the satellite phone seasons later)--but once Locke leads Jack on his path--towards the hatch--they seem to join forces, sort of. <br />In this episode, Locke and Jack disagreed on the action they should take as far as Danielle kidnapping Aaron. But when they see the pillar of smoke, they look to each other and both agree that the hatch is the way to go to protect their people. And thus they join forces again.<br />Could these two be the Jacob/Nemesis of the first 4 seasons?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-31930024497922671182009-07-17T21:58:59.812-04:002009-07-17T21:58:59.812-04:00Holy crap I go away for a few days and you guys go...Holy crap I go away for a few days and you guys go nuts with content. AWSOME JOB EVERYONE! Wish I could have be around more to participate in the last 2 posts.<br /><br />I wanna get this note outta the way (an become the ubernerd). I read in an "offical" Star Wars book that covers after Return of the Jedi. It states that Chewy and Han can understand each other. Not only that but Chewy has a speech impedement that actually allows Han to understand him easier. Also alluding to the fact that Han prob. wouldn't be able to understand Chewy if he didn't have this speech problem.<br /><br />Anyone ever hear the theory the C3po and R2D2 are the real main characters of Star Wars? This is mainly because they are the only characters in all 9 episodes. I feel the same way kinda about vincent.<br /><br />To cover somethings mentioned here and in 1x22. Michael sucks, shannon sucks, Boone sucks, Ana Sucks, yankees suck, Knicks suck...oh god got carried away there so sorry.<br /><br />As for the Blackrock, I've been intrigued by the ship since I found out it was a ship. I have to believe the ship seen in season 5 is the blackrock. There seem to have been too much work into the blackrock for it to be anything else. I believe when I was researching the semi-connal video games I came across infromation that widmore bid on the firstmates diary of the blackrock.<br />Also where did this idea that richard came in on the blackrock? I'd love to know if this idea is based on information I'm missing.<br />Finally, I've started to see some Moses and Aaron comparision poping up nowadyas. I think it was in the 1x22 rewatch someone made the comparision of Locke being like Moses. It was something to the effect of a stranger leading people in a strange land. This reminds me alot of Jack's tatoo. Witch i'm not remembering a good translation (if someone could help me out it would be appreciated) so I'm not going to botch it. Anyways if you apply the moses leadership to Jack (I think with his tattoo it makes more sense). and add that to the fact that apparently Jack is related to Aaron. We end up with a stronger bible reference. Not sure where this idea goes, but feel free to jump in and take this last idea away from me.<br /><br />Ace "WAAALLLLTTT" WillcoAce Willconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-48786079413833938712009-07-17T13:08:10.018-04:002009-07-17T13:08:10.018-04:00I meant Season 5 - sorry.I meant Season 5 - sorry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-34666381484224937142009-07-17T13:07:24.841-04:002009-07-17T13:07:24.841-04:00Are we sure that the ship in Season is the Black R...Are we sure that the ship in Season is the Black Rock?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-70746743554908002432009-07-17T12:53:36.570-04:002009-07-17T12:53:36.570-04:00Perhaps Richard arrived on the Black Rock.Perhaps Richard arrived on the Black Rock.Charles Riffenburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01776506345849605231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-46392459469838062922009-07-17T12:41:23.417-04:002009-07-17T12:41:23.417-04:00I don't think we ever confirmed that the ship ...I don't think we ever confirmed that the ship Jacob and MIB saw was the Black Rock.

It was poetic justice that he got off the island but was still such an ass that he couldn't kill himself. In saving Walt (who didn't want to leave the Island) he lost everything.<br /><br />He came back and redeemed himself and goodbye to him. Desmond started out unlikeable to me. He ran off the first chance he got and got brought back. Good deal. He was a standup guy at the end though.<br /><br />For some reason I never warmed up to Mr. Ecko.

It seems the dog could very well prove to be something significant... or perhaps the writers don't have the guts to kill off an animal.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm most concerned about two things: the title of this episode and the Black Rock. The Black Rock is still shrouded in mystery. Slaves? Dynamite? The middle of the island? (If it had black slaves and white slave traders, we'd have the theme of black and white again.)<br /><br />As for the title, it's another biblical title, the second of the first season. Both ("Numbers" and "Exodus") are from the Pentateuch or the first five books of the Bible. I wouldn't be surprised if "Genesis" were a title next season, but it seems that Moses and Aaron and their conflict with Egypt are popping up as references. In my personal rewatch, I'm halfway through Season 2, which has more biblical references, thanks in large part to Mr. Eko.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15489332130493602467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920393039273628205.post-24874398286112885782009-07-16T15:06:41.051-04:002009-07-16T15:06:41.051-04:00Dog is my co-pilot.

If you follow the above logic, it leads you to the conclusion that everyone is, or should be, dead. Of course, the reason they aren't is probably the island, not because they were in the back or had flotation devices or anything like that.<br /><br />In conclusion, the dog is alive for the same reasons as the other survivors.
