Alright, kiddies. Lost just completed its second season and now I get to weigh in
with what I think is going on:
This is what we've learned:
- The button WAS important. Apparently, it helps vent built up magnetic energy due to an crack in the Swan station.
- Desmond's neglect brought 815 down.
- Henry Gale (or NotHenry, as he's being referred to on many boards) is an important Other.
- There's a way to get to freedom (presumably... Mr. Gale's not known for telling the truth).
- The outside world still exists and can pick up massive electromagnetic pulses.
- The island is cloaked. Most likely by the magnetic field, which I think existed long before the Dharma project got there. In fact, I think its the islands "unique" energy that attracted the Dharma Initiative in the first place. That would explain why very old boats (in other words, The Black Rock) were there.
- Locke, Eko, and Desmond aren't dead. That bright light wasn't really an explosion. I think the "fail safe" was a way to fully discharge or blow away the magnetic field. Hence, the busted hatch door was repelled by the polarity reversal.
- Widmore is bankrolling the whole thing.
- The mysterious food drop a few episodes earlier -- given the cloaking properties of the magnetic field prevented the plane from being seen or heard. Yet, they had the ability to pierce the field to make the drop -- just like how Henry told Michael the proper location to get free, there may be other weak spots in the shield.
What's totally throwing me is: what's up with the four-toed statue foot?
