I mentioned this on another post and it is the theory I am FIRMLY STICKING BY:

Sideways-time Locke is actually Flocke.

Of this I am certain.

Although saying that, if that was Des trying to commit A Great Deed by killing off Flocke, I'm sure that he would have found a more efficient and guaranteed way of doing it. And they wouldn't have just dropped it in at the end of an episode.

HURM.

I don't know if alt!Locke has been MIB the whole time, but I think it's distinctly possible that he is now, after the hitandrun. He sure looked... Flocke-ish when they showed his face on the gurney. Kinda pissed and scheming.

ohwtf_26 April 20 2010, 21:19:42 UTC

i thought it looked more like he was in shock from getting hit by a fricken car.... i dont know how scheming you can look when ur body is broken

endlesspurpose April 20 2010, 21:51:26 UTC

Lol. I remember they showed a close up of his eyes and it was just a really familiar kind of expression. But I suppose it could just be that he was pissed that he flat got run over.

ohwtf_26 April 20 2010, 22:13:11 UTC

lol yeah - like 'wtf just happend?" and at the same time "holy shit I died in another life and the son of a bitch who did it is walking right behind me!"

endlesspurpose April 20 2010, 22:16:46 UTC

Something like that lol

'On the other hand, the "son of a bitch" did just do everything he could to help me when I was hit by a car, so maybe I shouldn't judge him by what that other version of him did.'

ohwtf_26 April 20 2010, 23:35:37 UTC

oh the confliction!

air_and_angels April 20 2010, 22:26:05 UTC

I thought he looked semi-conscious!

endlesspurpose April 20 2010, 22:27:51 UTC

And PISSED. ;-) The jury's out on why he's pissed though.

supermari74 April 20 2010, 20:31:26 UTC

Yes! I like your theory!

ohwtf_26 April 20 2010, 21:22:57 UTC

i think that son had her epiphany when she got shot so she thinks locke is flocke, i dont think that he really is flocke because there hasnt been a single sinister moment from him to reveal otherwise

newengland32 April 20 2010, 21:38:27 UTC

yeah, in that preview for tonight, sun freaking out about locke is probably just because she's freaking out because she thinks he's Flocke

endlesspurpose April 20 2010, 21:53:33 UTC

I definitely agree that Sun thinks he's Flocke... I can't think of any reason why she would have even recognized him otherwise, much less freaked out about it.

...Although that just made me think of something. Was Ben within Sun's line of sight when she was freaking out? Cuz if so, and if she does remember now, maybe it was him she was upset about.

air_and_angels April 20 2010, 22:28:24 UTC

Unless the scene is edited very differently in the actual episode, Sun is reacting to Locke on the gurney beside her. I don't think she can even see Ben from where she is.

endlesspurpose April 20 2010, 22:32:25 UTC

Yeah, I thought that Ben was too far behind for Sun to see him, but as I was typing the thought occurred to me. WE SHALL SEE ONLY A LITTLE WHILE LONGER.
