I just watched last week's episode of Lost and I think I can now explain everything that has ever happened on the show.

I mean, using TV-pseudoscience speak, but still. I can explain it narratively.

1. The coffin. Ok, that is one question I can't answer as definitively, though I suspect it to be Sawyer. But it might also be Locke. I feel confident its one of the plane crash survivors, but they can't attend the funeral because they can't act like they know or care about each other.
2. Polar bear. This is a long shot. But I suspect that animal was being used in some experimentation in the island and rather than the consciousness-flashing that Desmond does that implies time-travel (he's actually just re-living things he's done already), the bear, because of the magnitude of the magnet, was somehow sucked into the earth and transported on the other side of the globe, to the sahara desert. Or maybe he was shot into the atmosphere and landed in the desert. Either way, that bear had the same magnetic force in its body, which is why that rescue worker/archaeologist found the polar bear in the desert. Speaking of, the thing that all of those rescue workers have in common and why Abaddon picked them is that they also have Island Magnetism^TM in them, so they could travel to the island and not be injured by the effects. People who go to the Island Magnet Vortex who don't have it as part of their biology, end up with The Sickness which is what killed the rest of Rousseau's party, but not Rousseau. She had IM.
3. Abbaddon is Ben's competitor, either a black ops government guy trying to take over the island or a black ops corporate contract guy trying to do the same. He understands the most how the island works, hence him picking that team, and visiting them crash-survivors in the flash-forwards.
4. I think Jacob is a contact off the island, someone who had figured out a way to branch the magnet vortex. The house, the voice, the figure, all move around and are inconsistent because electromagnetic waves of light and sound are bent by the magnet. He might also be Ben's "constant".
5. Oh damn, Adam and Eve. I'm going to bet that its Jack and Kate, since they found the skeletons, they have been the main characters, they made it off the island, they have the biggest money contracts on the show....hahahah. In the flash-forward time, they will decide to go back to the Island to rescue the others and find out what happen and the second trip, somehow time bends backwards, they arrive BEFORE the plane crash, like years before, and they get killed so that they will find themselves later on as skeleton. And this would prove that the Lost writers knew all along where the story was going, though 'prove' is a bit loose, since there are numerous ways you can make dead bodies link up to a narrative.

Hmmmm, JB. Could that be James/Sawyer? Or Juliet? I don't know their last names. Because I'm not necessarily a Lost freak in the way that I read spoilers and theories and sites and wikipedias and whatnot, I never re-watch episodes or pause them to examine things on the screen. But I have seen every single episode, and I'm certainly involved, but I've mostly just been the type of viewer who enjoys having the questions and the anticipation of having them revealed to me, clue by clue. So yesterday, it was like this intense flash, were suddenly everything came together for me. EVERYTHING. Well, most things.

You are not alone, sir.

Ah, yes, Juliet Burke. I should have googled first. Thanks for the tip. That actually makes way more sense that John or Sawyer.
