Par Avion (S:3,E:12)

1) Not that the foreshadowing from previous seasons didn't make it a clear possibility, but it was nice to be right about SOMETHING!!! Christian Shephard (Jack's father) is also Claire's father. Slowly we're seeing more and more people connected to Christian Shephard. This makes an earlier theory rear it's ugly head again. In season one, when Jack sees his father (who I think now was just an image made from the black smoke, much like Eko seeing his brother), and when he chases his father down, he arrives at his father's casket. When he breaks it open, there's no body, but they kinda didn't make a big deal about that. Mikhail talked about a great man. He also said, that man is not Benry. So, back to my theory, is Christian Shephard still alive, and is he this great man?

2) Speaking of what he says...Mikhail points out to Sayid and Kate that they weren't on "The List". However, he basically says that Locke was. Though the list points out weaknesses. Benry talked about this before when he and Locke were in the hatch and Benry was held captive. He said that he was there to bring Locke back. And we saw in the previews that Locke and Benry meet again, and that Benry knows a whole lot more about Locke than we thought. Mikhail has a memory of lock "para...". But, Mikhail has been on the island for 11 years, Locke has been paralyzed for 4 years. With Mikhail biting the dust...we may never get an explanation for that.

3) Back to the story line. We see that Claire is linked to death now too...well, maybe not death. She was (as far as we know) responisble for the accident that put her mother in a coma. She said she hated her mother and wished she was dead right before the accident. Nice touch, by the way, on the "no seatbelt" light in the car.

4) So...how will Jack and Claire find out they are siblings. My theory is that the black smoke, as Christian Shephard, will appear to both of them.

5) At the end we see Jack running for his life...er...no...playing football with Zeke. The look on Kate's face was priceless.
