5x06 - "316" Off and On Island

Off Island

1. The first actual DHARMA station was built under a church. It was called the Lamp Post.

2. The equipment used in the Lamp Post was used to predict the next appearance of the Island. One could infer that the Mathematical Forecasting Institute of the Hanso Foundation was used for this purpose.

3. If the Island is always moving, then how is it not being seen by the outside world as it moves?

4. Could the equations used to predict the Island's movements have been determined by Enzo Valenzetti?

5. Ajira Airways, Flight 316, is the plane that flies over the Island. Could those water bottles found in an earlier Island timeshift be from that plane?

6. Why is it necessary for John Locke to act as a stand-in for Christian Shepherd?

7. Ben's run-in with Desmond in these past two episodes has led him to suspect that Penelope Widmore is nearby. He is now attempting to kill her.

8. Jack's grandfather is the only person who he actually says goodbye to before leaving for the Island.

9. The only logical person for Kate to leave Aaron with is Claire's mother, Aaron's biological grandmother.

10. What changed Kate's mind about staying off the Island?

11. Jack's tennis shoes were caught up in a tree in the pilot episode.

12. Judging from the wounds Ben's incurred, it seems his attempt on Penelope Widmore failed.

13. The way Jack talks to Locke as he puts Christian's shoes on Locke's feet makes it sound as thought Jack is only going back to the Island for Locke's sake and not his own.

14. How was Kate able to get on board a plane? Wasn't she on probation?

15. If Sun is getting on the plane by herself, does that mean she's left Ji Yeon with her grandmother.

16. Is Sayid being expedited to Guam?

17. Hurley is reading "Y The Last Man" in spanish. A comic written by Brian K. Vaughn.

18. What made Hurley decide to go back to the Island?

19. Why does Hurley have a guitar with him? Is it for Charlie?

20. Jack's starting to sound like he actually believes as John Locke did.

21. Frank Lapidus just happens to fly from LA to Guam all the time? Sounds like he was just asking to go back to the Island.

22. Locke's suicide note reads, "Jack, I wish you had believed me, JL."

On Island

1. Jack's arrival on the Island is very similar to the way he first arrived. Flat on his back in a field surrounded by bamboo and trees.

2. Hurley landed in the water, as did Kate. Where are the rest of the Six and what happened to the plane?

3. Jin's driving the Hurleymobile! And he's wearing a DHARMA jumpsuit. This means that the final timeshift landed those who stayed in the DHARMA era of the Island, while the Orchid was being constructed.
