Only about a month away:
The third season's conclusion is set on December 23, 2004. The crash survivors made contact with what they think is a freighter off the coast of the island. Meanwhile, the war between the Others and the survivors came to its climax which saw several of the Others killed.[75]
The producers have entered radio silence to limit the leak of spoilers, which have previously included detailed episode synopses.[76] The producers also want to let fans speculate about the revelations and mysteries of the previous season. Not much is known about season four and most of what is known was revealed at San Diego's Comic-Con International 2007, where Lindelof, Cuse and Perrineau answered fan questions.[77]
It has been hinted that there is no boat coming to the island;[78] however, whoever is coming to the island is "a lot worse" than the Others.[79] What happened between Ben and the real Henry Gale and how Ben was caught in Rousseau's trap on the survivors' fifty-eighth day will be explained.[67] The four-toed statue will be addressed.[80] Whether or not Kate is pregnant with a baby from Sawyer will be revealed in the first four episodes.[53] What happened in the Hatch during its implosion will be explored.[81] The fate of Sun and her unborn child will be made clear. What happened to Dr. Marvin Candle's arm will be addressed. How Libby wound up in the mental institution will be shown. What happened to Ben's childhood friend Annie will be revealed.[82] More will be seen of the authoritative Other Jacob.[83] Episodes will continue to feature flashbacks, in addition to flashforwards, which have revealed that Jack and Kate escape the island; however, a depressed Jack believes it to be a mistake.[84] Not all the survivors make it off the island.[85] This season is apparently scarier[86] and more violent than previous seasons.[87] There will be more deaths, some of which take place in flashforwards.[88]
