Questions Left Unanswered After Lost: Ji Yeon

So, we have one more episode left and some things are already clear, but there are new questions that need an answer.

In Ji Yeon, we witnessed the return of Michael, who is now a janitor on the freighter and from the scene where he meets Desmond and Sayid emerges the first question: is he really Ben’s spy on the freighter? Or maybe he lost his memory and any recollections about his life on The Island? Michael introduces himself as Kevin Johnson and the next episode of Lost I entitled “Meet Kevin Johnson”. Maybe next week, we will find some answers.

However, the biggest mystery that emerged from last episode is Jin’s fate. The episode made us believe that Jin and Sun are in the same flash-forward, but in the end the Lost’s screenwriters has a big surprise for us: Jin was in a flash-back, while Sun was showed in a flash-forward.

And as the episode ends with Sun’s visit at Jin’s grave, we are left wondering: how did Jin die? Did he die on The Island or did he die after they were eventually rescued?. During one of Sun’s flash-forwards, a nurse says she is one of Oceanic 6. Is Jin the sixth member of Oceanic 6? We know the identities of the four members: Kate, Jack, Sayid and Hurley.

In a previous episode, when Kate goes on trial for her previous crimes, Jack says something about eight people who survived the plane crash, but two of them where badly wounded and didn’t make it. Is Jin of them? And apparently all the fifth survivors are lying about their life on The Island?

In Ji Yeon, at one point, Juliet says to Sun that she and her baby will die, if she stays three more weeks on The Island. And as we saw Sun giving birth, this means that, one way or another, she managed to leave The Island. Does she escape thanks to the freighter? Total mystery!

And speaking of the freighter, Ji Yeon has raised a lot of questions about the people on the freighter and their real mission.

Regina, a woman from the freighter’s crew, is jumping in the water with an anchor chain around her body, the captain stops his men from attempting to save her and he seems somehow happy that she decided to kill herself.

But the captain offers also a big answer: he and his freighter are the only way out of The Island, as the rest of the world believes there are no survivors from the Oceanic flight 815.

His mission is to find Benjamin Linus and the secret of the 324 bodies that are lying on the bottom of the ocean.

But as we know from The Economist episode, Benjamin, the evil of The Island, has managed to escape and he is posing as a veterinary somewhere in Germany, while Sayid is working for him. So, we can assume that the captain has failed in his mission.

On the other hand, the captain says a saboteur damaged the freighter’s motors (maybe Michael?) and he is ready to sail to safer waters as soon as his men will repair the damage. So, it’s not a rescue mission, although the captain is not surprised to find out that Desmond is on The Island? Anyway, it seems like the last episode has brought a new set of mysteries and the story of the Losties is getting more and more complicated.

But I am willing to bet that soon enough, it will be revealed that six of them escaped The Island, while the rest of them decided to stay there. Why? How? Let’s wait and see what happens next.
