LOST the Final season: discussion thread

[MC]

continuing...

its almost like a paradox like the compass or even MIB looking like locke in that scene

MIB asks richard to give time traveling locke the compass in 2007 so he can give it back to richard in 1954.. MIB knows this will plant the seed in richards head that locke is special thus this is where his plan starts.. that will lead to taking lockes form and jacobs death..... but the paradox part is... MIB already has taken the form of dead locke when he asks richard to give the compass to time traveling locke... so in order for him to have taken the form of a dead locke... his plan has already had to have worked as the long drawn out manipulation of locke was complete as he had left the island died and returned...... so its a paradox or a infinite loop just like the compass itself.. the compass doesnt exist outside of the loop... it has no origin only handed from richard to locke back and forth in 07 and 54 over and over and over again

speaking of locke dying... since he was touched by jacob i guess hanging himself wouldnt have worked in the first place.... wonder if thats why ben burst into the room at that exact time....
