4x04 - "Eggtown" Future

This is a Kate-centric flash forward.

1. I have to say that I don't understand any of the reasoning behind Kate's decision to leave the Island. Why leave when she knows she'll be right back in handcuffs? She had to have known that she would be in a courtroom upon returning to the real world.

2. Why is Kate so adamant against bringing her son into the courtroom? How does she even have a child for that matter? By that I mean what's the "official" story?

3. Flight 815 crash-landed on an Island in the south Pacific. That is the only part of Jack's testimony which is true. The rest is all lies, which I believe to be the official story that all of the Oceanic Six have agreed to tell when asked about their ordeal by anyone. This lie is part of the deal they made to get off the Island.

4. Why is Kate's mother refusing to testify, even though Kate won't do anything for her in return.

5. Why is Kate willing to stay in California?

6. Jack won't see baby Aaron because he knows that Aaron is his nephew, and Christian Shepherd's grandson. Given how little Jack has talked about his father's death, it's clear he doesn't want to have anything to do with anything that might remind Jack of his father. Sometime between the current point in time on the Island and this flash forward, Jack will find this out. That reason makes better sense to me then Jack mistakenly believeing that Aaron is actually Sawyer's child.

7. The bigger question here is why is Kate raising Aaron, and is Aaron one of the Oceanic Six?
