The box….hmmm. Ben said you simply wish for what you want and it will be in the box. If so, why didn’t Ben just wish for a surgeon to be in the box? Why did he have to kidnap Jack? Did they go to the mainland and kidnap Cooper to manipulate Locke? So many questions!!!! I love this show so much but it drives me nuts! One big question I haven’t heard about. What the heck is a pirate ship doing on top of an island?!!!

Just to push a point that probably doesn’t need pushing I will say: Alpert and Ethan could be the same entity. Cerberus is a three headed dog. Perhaps Jacob/Alpert/Ethan represent some kind of trinity that makes up Smokey and the Island.

I think maybe Ethan since he seemed to have superhuman strength awhile back. I don’t know about Alpert because we’ve seen Ethan and Alpert together.

I like the Jacob is the island theory. Ben had mentioned at some point the “He” (we now know to be Jacob) isn’t as forgiving as the rest of the others. If smokey is part of island, we know he isn’t forgiving. Eko’s lack of repent got him destroyed. So maybe Jacob=Island=Smokey?

I think the Ben’s “box” and Lenny’s are related in the sense they are both somehow connected to the island. I am not sure how Lenny fits into that picture though. Perhaps Ben cannot activate the box. I do not think that Juliet’s sister ever had a re-occurance of the cancer but when Ben promised to cure her cancer he promised that Jacob would cure it. So maybe Jacob is the only Hostile with access to the island’s powers. (Unless Jacob is the island.) I think Ben has seen what the visitors are able to conjure up during their brief time there and wants in. So he kidnaps Cooper with a chance to manipulate both Locke and Sawyer. I guess we will learn more tomorrow.
