The Bottom Line "I don't have to ask. You brought them here. Still trying to prove me wrong, aren't you?"
LOST made us wait a very long time to meet Jacob, the mysterious entity whose existence has been hinted at since season two. He finally turned up in the season five finale, in a manner that managed to only increase his mystique, even though he appeared in a very down-to-earth manner. There's still so much left to learn about Jacob that I was hesitant to try to write anything from his perspective, but I decided to just work with what I think I know so far. This is the way I see Jacob now; hopefully that won't be completely turned on its head by the end of the season. The tune is Paul Brady's The Island, as sung by Celtic Thunder's Keith Harkin. With a title like that, I knew I'd have to get around to it sometime... The Summons Katie, you’re on the run for theft and murder. You have a Marshal closing in on you. It seems you just can’t stay away from trouble Although I very nicely asked you to. And James, your life’s defined by vengeance And you’ve become the thing you hated most. I know that there’s so much more to both of you, though. So get a ticket, you two. I’ve found a flight that you can come on. It’s Oceanic 815. And once you get here, you will be at your best. It’s a tiring test, But worth it. I’m gonna bring you to the Island. I’ve brought many here before. But something tells me, when it’s all said and done, You’re the ones who will prove me the victor. Now, Jack and John, you both have father issues. One is demanding; one is simply cruel. And they have shaped you into stubborn people, Each one determined not to look a fool. Jack, you are so adept at helping, You don’t know how to ask for help yourself. And John, you will not accept your limitations. Just get a ticket, you two. ‘Cause I’ve found a flight that you can come on. It’s Oceanic 815. And once you get here, you will be at your best. It’s a tiring test, But worth it. I’m gonna bring you to the Island. I’ve brought many here before. But something tells me, when it’s all said and done, You’re the ones who will prove me the victor. Hugo, I’m aware that you’ve been feeling worthless, And you think your luck and sanity ran out. And I know it’s hard to have a sense of purpose While drowning in a flood of guilt and doubt. You need to understand the truth now, Hugo. Your kindness blesses everyone you meet. And soon you’ll come to see that you are special. Special. Special...
