****************Warning this theory will contain spoilers about recent casting news about the finale******************* *************************
In light of all the Jacob spoilers involving mark pelligro I had this theory that makes perfect sense in my head but we will see how it comes out.
The main reason I came to the conclusion I did was because of the press release of the finale that talks about peligro playing âman #1â and a different actor by the name of Titus Welliver playing a âman #2â. Now many have speculated that these two actors may be playing the young and old versions of the same person: Jacob. This makes sense, although both actors are around the same age, they definitely each have the physical characteristics of a young and/or old person. But that got me thinking. What are the chances we will not only get Jacob in the finale but an old and young version of him? To that end wouldnât it just make more sense to maybe throw a beard and some makeup on pelligro and poof, you have an older Jacob. So I think the idea of these guys both playing jacob is bunk, I actually think the other guy is playing Alvar Hanso but thatâs a theory for another day.
So here is my theory. I have always liked the idea of Jacob ending up being one of the original castaways. With that said, Jacob is none other than baby Aaron. I really donât have a ton of evidence at the moment to back this up but I have recently rewatched every episode of the first 3 seasons, and after watching them it just always seemed Aaron was very important. After all, Clare was on board 815, the same plane that we have come to learn basically changed everything and set things in motion that the island is still trying to fix. Is it that hard to imagine that the mysterious Jacob would be brought into this world as a result of the huge island game-changer that was oceanic 815. There is also the Clare in the Cabin thing. If Clare did indeed die as a result of her barrack getting toasted ... |

toasted by a rocket launcher, was she maybe kept alive by her son (Jacob) long enough for her to bring herself and his baby self to safety. Also Aaron being Jacob could maybe explain ghost Christian. It all makes sense that he's the one talking for Jacob if he is indeed Jacobs grandfather.
Since we are pretty sure Jacob is going to be in the finale and he is going to be played by pelligro here is how I think this is all going to play out. In the finale Jacob will talk to all of our losties and pivotal moments in their lives. I think that at some point he will tell one of them, (probably Locke, maybe jack; he is his half-bro) something to the effect of [my name is Jacob, you donât know me, but you will and I am going to need your help.] What is more likely though is that Jacob/Aaron talks to someone during the incident, I mean with all the electromagnetic mumbo jumbo why not, and he tells someone he is Jacob.
This is where im kinda stuck. Why would Aaron call himself Jacob? Why not just call himself Aaron? Besides killing the surprise for the finale, I couldnât really think of anything. Im not a time travel expert so bear with me, but is it possible that the name Jacob is kind of stuck on the proverbial time loop (compass paradox) that has seemed to have popped up so often this season. Is it possible that during the incident Jacob tells, oh say- Locke, that he is Aaron, then in the future Locke seeâs a time traveling Aaron and gives him the whole âyour destinyâ speech and convinces Aaron to become Jacob. Hell, maybe the whole 6 season is about Locke, jack, ben, widmore, Richard and co. protecting and getting a young Aaron to realize his destiny and become Jacob. Not making any sense? Let me explain:
Im thinking that if Jacob is indeed Aaron the 6th season will focus on our losties trying to get him to realize his destiny, while at the same time protecting him from the 316ers who I believe are they to kill him. Not sure who these people are (maybe dh ... |

(maybe dharma, maybe Egyptians or something) but I bet they know who Jacob/Aaron is, and that he is vulnerable and can be killed. As for how Aaron/Jacob gets to present time (2008)? I am thinking some type of time hopping similar to what happened to our losties early in season 5. For whatever reason Aaronâs record stops in 2008, probably a result our losties getting back to 2008.
So the whole finale is going to be a time-warped-future-enligh tened Aaron/Jacob visiting our losties the whole entire episode. Then at the very end when the 815ers are transported back to 2008, the confused-timeskipping-may be nosebleeding Aaron/Jacob will emerge. Who are you? My name is Aaron! Thump. LOST |

Well, I like the idea of linking Aaron and Jacob together and I think that Aaron still has some role to play next season, but the only problem I see is him getting back to the Island. Kate left him with Claire's mum before getting on 316 so he is still in 2008 and only 3 years old. But if he was somehow on 316 and transported back to 1977, then in 2007, as Jacob, he would be roughly 30 years old and a few years younger when influencing the survivors before coming to the Island, so that is possible.
The one point I'm confused about is the 'compass paradox' with Locke telling Aaron/Jacob about is destiny (which would have to be him as a 3 year old) during the Incident, where Locke would recognise him as toddler Aaron and would not be a 30 year old Aaron/Jacob. |

| I see where your coming from. I thought i said something about that but rereading my theory i see that i didnt. What i meant is that at some point in the future an older jacob will land on the island, after all, if the island wants him there (which it probably does) it will get him there. When he gets there he will be as cluess and sensless as our losties were in seasons 1 and 2. Eventaully events will happen that will send him time skipping (it only took our losties 108 days to reach this point) much like locke and crew were in the beginning of season 5. At some point his "record" will stop skipping in 2008, which i believe will stop becuase of our dharma losties getting back to 2008 (ie the incident). This 2008 Jacob however will not be all knowing, he will be confused and vulnerable. My theory kinds of falls apart here a bit because why would he be vulneralbe? If he still has to fullfill a destiny and whatever happened happened then he techniqly cant die because he has to fullfill a destiny he has essentially already accomplished. Im thinking though that the last couple episodes of this season could make this jacob vulnerable idea viable. |

| Ah, I see. The skipping could explain how he could also exist in any time period on the Island but he would also have to travel back to prior 815 crashing (before 2004) off-island to meet Jack, Locke and Sawyer before coming to the Island (as we've been told is going to happen in this season's finale). Would this be possible in terms of this theory? |

| definitly. becuase, so to speak, it is jacob that will be seeing the losties before 815, not aaron. Meaning it is the Aaaron that has already fullfilled his destiny and become the all knowing, all seeing, island-entity, we know as jacob. I beleive that most would agree that jacob has the ability to do just about anything and that time doesnt apply to him, he knows whats goin to happen in the past, present and futrue. The Aaron/jacob that is randomly flashing through time does not have this ability. Think time-skipping aaron/jacob as locke in the first 4 seasons (kind of doesnt really know what goin on, but feels he has purpose and destiny he is being pushed toward) and now think all knowing entity aaron/jacob as locke as we will probably see in the future. ( an all knowing and all seeing island leader)--Locke just hasnt made it to jacobs level yet. Does this make any sense? i feel like im rambling. lol |

| i think that at somepoint in 6th Season, they will show how an elder Walt helps Aarron/Jacob go back to the island and "fullfilling his desitny" also giong back in time to 1800's living hundred something years, leading the others, who will try to kidnapp him when he's born. probably the whole plot is Immortality thru Time Traveling to the past-Atlantis stuff. |
