Jack visits Locke (aka Jeremy Bentham) at Hoffs Drawler, Ben follows

Jack returns to Hoffs Drawler funeral parlor and breaks in to see Jeremy Bentham's body. He finds the body release form on the coffin which is not filled out, presumably because there is no one with any legal standing to claim the body. Then who should appear but Mr. Ben Linus.

During Ben's inquiry, we find out that Jack spoke to Locke about a month ago and Locke told him that Ben was off of the island. Locke also spoke to Kate at some point. Locke told Jack that after he (Jack) left the island, "some very bad things happened" and "that it was my (Jack's) fault. Locke also told Jack that he had to come back.

Ben tells Jack that "the island won't let you come alone. All of you have to come back." Jack says that he doesn't know where Sayid is, that Hurley is insane, that Sun blames him for something (most likely Jin being left behind) and that Kate won't talk to him anymore. Ben says that he can help with that and "this is the way it has to be" and "it's the only way." When Jack asks "How?," all Ben says is "I have a few ideas." Jack nods in agreement and begins to walk towards the door when Ben stops him and says "We're going to have to bring him too," referring to Locke in the coffin. This is the point in which Locke is revealed to be in the coffin.

Now we wait until season 5, or at least until the new hiatus game launches.

Claire visits Kate with a warning in a dream

In the future, Kate wakes up in the middle of the night and looks down the hall outside her bedroom just as the phone rings. A backwards voice says "The island needs you. You have to go back before it's too late." She then hears a door open and runs to grab a gun out of the armoire. She rushes down to Aaron's room to find Claire by Aaron's bed. Kate is obviously freaked out as Claire tells her "Don't bring him back Kate. Don't you dare bring him back!." Kate then springs up in her bed with sweat dripping down her face. The phone call and Claire's appearance was a dream. Kate rushes down the hall to find Aaron asleep in his room alone. She hold's Aaron's hand while he's sleeping and tells him "I'm sorry" twice while crying.

Does Claire's appearance in the dream mean that she's dead or does she does she now have a closer communion with the island or something totally different? Does she not want Kate to take Aaron back because of the bad things that have happened or for some other reason? Questions, questions, questions.

On the door of Aaron's room, there's a painting of the white rabbit from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. This is one of many references to the book in Lost. I also grabbed what appears to be a picture of a child on a bike, presumably Aaron, that was on top of a chest of drawers (the photo is hard to make out).

Sun has a cryptic conversation with Charles Widmore

In this flash forward, one of two filmed in London, Sun approaches Charles Widmore as he's coming out of Le Pont de la Tour restaurant with some associates. She introduces herself as Mr. Paik's daughter and the managing director of Paik industries and Widmore immediately acknowledges that he knows Mr. Paik. It would seem that Paik and Widmore have does business together before, which many have suspected for some time. The tone shifts when Sun asks "Are you really going to stand there and pretend you don't know who I am?." He plays it off but Sun says that he knows that they are lying about where they were and what happened while they were there. Sun tells Widmore that they have "common interests" and when he's ready to discuss them to call her. She hands him her business card which has her name, position in the company and the Paik logo on it. Then she says, "As you know, we're not the only ones who left the island." Is she referring to Desmond or Ben? That would seem to be the people Widmore would be most interested in. Widmore asks "Why would you want to help me?," but Sun just walks away.

Pt. 2 of finale picks up where season 3 finale ended

Part 2 of "There's No Place Like Home" begins exactly where the flash forward moment that ended season 3 left off. As Jack screams "we have to go back!," Kate throws her car into reverse and confronts Jack. She reveals that the obituary is for a man name Jeremy Bentham and that Bentham came to her and she heard what he had to say. She thinks Bentham is crazy but Jack believes they have to go back because Bentham told him that it's the only way to keep Kate and Aaron safe. Kate slaps Jack for saying Aaron's name.

What exactly did Bentham say to Kate when he approached her?

Christian's memorial service, Claire's mom is alive, Jack finds out Claire is his sister

Jack speaks at Christian's memorial service. Kate, Aaron, Sayid, Nadia and Hurley are all there. The only member of the Oceanic 6 not in attendance is Sun. Jack's mom, Margo Shephard is also there.

The unexpected guest is Claire's mom, Carole Littleton who obviously woke up from her coma some time after the crash of 815. She approaches Jack after the service and tells him who she is and why she's there. Jack finally learns that Claire is his half sister and he becomes visibly distraught. Kate overhears the conversation and then is approached by Carole who tells her that she has a beautiful son, not realizing that she is seeing her own grandson.

What were the circumstances surrounding Carole waking up from her coma? Was it related to the island?
