Lost Update - Season Six - 04/13/2010
Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name
(Chorus)
And I don't know if you're an illusion
Don't know if I see it true
But you're something that I must believe in
And you're there when I reach out for you
I told you Libby would be back! And Michael! And I told you all years ago that Desmond was able to control both universes. All this and more has come to fruition according to my Lost theory.
Just what is the Grassy Knoll Institutes Lost theory….I’ve been telling you for six years so what's a few more times between friends...
Although it appears the survivors of Oceanic flight 815 are on a tropical island, they are being deceived. There is no island. The survivors are in a virtual reality laboratory. All the castaways are interconnected to one another sharing each others thoughts, memories, and feelings. While in this virtual reality laboratory, a battery of physical and mental experiments are performed on them. And who is running these experiments? As Juliet stated, the Aliens of course.
Tonight the theme music, Love Is In The Air, performed by John Paul Young, an oldie but goodie, is the heart of the matter for the gentle giant, Hugo Reyes. He meets up with Libby in the alternate reality. I TOLD YOU YEARS AGO THAT LIBBY WOULD MAKE ANOTHER APPEARANCE ON LOST! The lyrics suggest that Hugo may be dreaming, and perhaps insane, buts it's something he must believe in, go all in, go for broke, and that's what he does with Libby. It's a great love story and all, but there was much more going on tonight than meets the eye.
Lets begin with Desmond making the rounds in the alternate reality meeting up with the Lost castaways. Much like a certain someone who did the exact same thing and then got stabbed and kicked into a fire by a vicious smoke monster. Yes, we're talking about Jacob. Notice how Desmond in the last several episodes interacted with all the castaways just as Jacob did. Perhaps Desmond is Jacob in the alternate reality. Or perhaps Desmond is the new Jacob. Or is Jacob.
That alone would be enough to complete this episode but there is more. Much more. What we have been witnessing in season six is the confluence of realities of the castaways. And Desmond is their guide. (A sort of Hitch Hikers Guide To The Universe type - Not always knowing what he's doing, but getting the job done nonetheless)
Season six has been structured to reveal small intervals of life on the mainland for the castaways and revealing small intervals of life on the island. As the season progresses, each character's realities are merging, becoming one. With the aid of Desmond. Both realities are moving down stream to converge and pool at the end of the journey.
Case in point. Libby remembers both realities, tries to convince Hugo but at first he believes she is crazy. It's not until they kiss that all the memories of the island come flooding back for Hugo. Both realities are melding into one. And Desmond was there to see and assist. Libby's doctor told Hugo that she has issues with reality which she conveys to Hugo explaining about the island, plane crash, and experiences there. Hugo jokes that she and he were in some bizarro alternate universe.
There is still more. The voices in the jungle that Hurley and the castaways hear. Not only are they the dead people coming to visit but the past, present, and future of the island realities converging.
Years ago, I stated that the castaways were all interconnected, in a VR experiment, their thoughts being controlled by input stimuli and various psychological scenario's to study human emotion. I also stated that Desmond somehow learned how to control the VR, and influenced the outcome to his favor. He does the impossible, finding the needle in the haystack, Penny, his love. He also warns the castaways of certain events. He also saves Charlie countless times from death. He realizes the time loop he is stuck in.
My theory has arrived in full force.
