SPOILER! Ending constellation for future protectors
For me one of the best scene in the series was when Hurley got declared as the new protector and Ben being his support 🥹I could watch a whole series with both of them taking care of the island and doing Jacob things. Just an awesome ending. Sadly we don’t see any scenes about this team taking care and living their lives together

Currently watching S4, the losties have some god-level restraint not to kill Ben
From a storytelling perspective, I get that his character is too valuable to just nonchalantly kill off. He is the main villain and his actor is just too good. But within universe, he is so much more trouble than he could ever be worth. I don't care what info he has, the guy kidnapped and tortured several members of the group, tried to stop them from leaving the island at every step and shot John on the stomach before throwing him in the mass grave of the community he genocided. He lies every single time he opens his mouth and everybody knows it. You can't tell me that no one would have jumped this guy at this point. And yeah, it's very hard to psych yourself up to kill someone, but it's not like most of them haven't done it before. The fact that Jack made an attempt on Locke of all people, but not Ben, just sends me. Locke was kinda pissing me off too, but priorities, man.
Rousseau has it right, honestly. The man ripped her baby out of her arms, left her to hopelessly search for them for 16 years and still has the fucking gall to call Alex "my daughter". Can't blame her from wanting to beat him to a pulp.
I'm suspending my disbelief here because he is a very effective villain and I love to hate him. But they really should have done away with him already, lol.
And Sayid saying "the day I trust him is the day I sell my soul" right before the reveal that he is now working for him broke my heart. Sayid has so much untapped hero potential, I can't believe this is where his arc goes. Thanks for brainwashing my favorite character, asshole.

The Black Rock Meeting
I've listened to Lost Explained Part Two and the author mentioned that Man in Black appeared as Richard's wife Elizabeth while he was handcuffed. However, for Man in Black he needs a body to transform in dead person. How would he do that? What are you theories? Did I miss something?

Who is your Dickens?
Desmond Hume said he’s read everything Charles Dickens has written.
Do you have an author like that? Someone whose writing is so beautiful that you want to soak up every word?
The closest I have is John Steinbeck.

Question about episode 5x10: He’s Our You
This is the forth time that I rewatch Lost (that still remains the best show I’ve ever watched) and I’m aware that this is one of those questions where the answer doesn’t really matter to understand the show but I’m just so curious and haven’t find an answer here or on Lostpedia.
>
What kind of substance Oldham forces Sayid to take in order to make him tell the truth on episode 5x10:He’s Our You?
I theorized that might be Penthotal or Sodyum Amytal which are two barbiturates that make people drowsy and less guarded but they don’t guarantee the honesty of the user (I have kind of an amateur passion about psychedelic substances and stuff like that).
As far as I know there’s no substance that 100% guarantees that the user will tell the truth.
Another guess is that the substance was not a known existing drug but, instead, was Island-exclusive and so was part of the special, mystic and unique aspect and properties of the Island. Maybe obtained from a native plant or something like that.
>
This was probably, like many other things in Lost, meant to be free interpreted by the watcher. But I would like to know, if you ever wonder about that, what are your thoughts about it.

Every passager/crew was a candidate?
Black smoke kills the pilot off the bat. The guys does absolute nothing in the island and dies straight away, minutes after waking up. It was stabilished MiB couldn't kill candidates as long as they were candidates.
So Jacob brought the pilot for no reason? The pilot was not a candidate from the beginning and was brought on the island for nothing? Yeah Lapidus was supposed to be the pilot and he overslept, like...really? Jacob couldn't call the guy?
Also, how MiB could kill Mr. Eko? The guy was clearly in a improvement and betterment path...Jacob decided he was not a candidate anymore and MiB could kill him? Or Mr eko was never a candidate and was randomly brought to the island?

New Man in Charge question
Why did Hurley want the two men to stop sending the food drops? Don’t Hurley, Ben, and Walt all need to eat food still (especially given Walt’s affinity for Dharma granola bars)?
