Just as I thought...
What...the....F***?
Did they all die in the crash? Nope. The island was real, and it wasn't purgatory. Rather, Season 6's sideways world was heaven's holding pen. Ben's reluctance to enter the church suggests he wasn't finished atoning for his misdeeds. His chat with Hurley also indicated they had cared for the island for a while.
What was the Smoke Monster? Jacob created Smokey by tossing his brother, the MiB, into the cave. He knew the outcome would be bad — though not how bad — and his protection of the island was a part of his guilt trip. But why a sonic fence (or ash, or for that matter, the ocean) would keep Smokey at bay, we never learned.
What were the numbers? They were the numbers of our castaway "candidates" for island protector-to-be. The dial at Jacob's lighthouse had names assigned to each degree mark; turning it to 23 allowed Jacob to observe Jack as he grew up. Had he not smashed the mirrors, Hurley might have seen his house or Mr. Clucks when it was turned to 8 degrees. But the sequence's significance in the Dharma computer and on the roofs of police cruisers? Who knows?
Why couldn't babies conceived on the island survive to term?Fertility had been a major plotline since Ethan kidnapped Claire in Season 1 so the Others could study her. Ethan himself gave us the most plausible answer: His safe birth in 1977 indicated that the prenatal problems were likely caused by the Incident, when the Swan station construction crew drilled into the energy pocket, requiring the discharge of electromagnetic energy every 108 minutes.
What was the Ben-Widmore beef? Soon after the Dharma purge, Ben ousted Widmore as leader of the Others. His sins? Leaving the island regularly and fathering a child with an outsider. Ben also believed Widmore sought to exploit the island's healing properties for financial gain. Their chess game went to the next level when Widmore's thug Keamy shot Ben's daughter.
Why did Widmore bring Desmond back? Desmond's ability to withstand all the electromagnetic energy that resulted from turning the hatch's failsafe key made Widmore realize that his son-in-law could be a failsafe himself. By turning out the island lights, Desmond made UnLocke mortal — and vulnerable.
Where was Waaaaaaaaalt? Reality probably made his return impossible; as Jimmy Kimmel pointed out,Malcolm David Kelley is like 8 feet tall now. Yes, we would have liked to know what made him so special (cue the polar bear), but that mattered a lot more in Season 2.
How did Hurley stay so heavy? Remember, the Losties were on the island only four months at first, during which he claimed to have dropped a couple of belt notches. Once home, he continued emotional eating to assuage his guilt about the Oceanic Six's lie. And back on the island, he ran the kitchen as Dharma chef.
Thanks, USATODAY

The following takes place between the hours of....
From the Associated Press:
At 6.40pm, firefighters arrived. After breaking the car's side and back windows they discovered three propane tanks, two gallons of petrol and a load of fertiliser, with fireworks and some cheap alarm clocks as a trigger.
The New York police bomb squad was called in and went to work dismantling the device, defusing it by 11.30pm. Times Square, clogged with tourists on a warm evening, would be shut for 10 hours.
Meanwhile, the police and FBI were pursuing the licence plate attached to the back of the car. Investigators tracked it to a shop selling used car parts in Stratford, Connecticut. They woke the owner at 3am on Sunday and discovered the plate was connected to a different vehicle.
Investigators also spoke to the owner of an auto shop in nearby Bridgeport because a sticker on the Pathfinder indicated it had been sold by his dealership. That also led nowhere.
Then at 7.30am, Detective John Wright slid underneath the car at a lab in Queens and found an identification number stamped under the engine block. That led authorities to a man in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and his 19-year-old daughter, Peggy Colas, who had posted ads on eBay and other websites offering a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder for sale, court papers said.
During questioning on Sunday morning and again Monday, the teenager told investigators that she met the man who bought her car at a supermarket parking lot on 24 April and he took the vehicle for a test drive. She was asking $1,800; he offered $500 less. She agreed and he paid her in cash, with 13 crisp $100 bills.
She said the buyer told her that no bill of sale was necessary and he already had plates. She did not know his name, but she did have a mobile number.
That led to a prepaid mobile phone activated on 16 April that had been used to call Colas several times, investigators said. A check of records showed it was also used to contact a Pennsylvania fireworks shop.
By 11 am on Monday, investigators knew the suspect's name. Agents later showed Colas six photos, including one of Shahzad. Authorities say she picked Shahzad.
Meanwhile, there was more evidence. A set of keys left in the Pathfinder's ignition turned out to belong to a white Isuzu Trooper that Shazhad left parked at New York's JFK airport on Monday night, as well as to his apartment in Bridgeport. At a nearby garage, investigators recovered fireworks and fertiliser, court papers said.
Shahzad was spotted at around 3pm on Monday coming out of a shop near his home and was tailed by investigators. He was also placed on a no-fly list.
Authorities planned to arrest him at his apartment that evening, but Shahzad may have been alerted by news reports that investigators were seeking a Pakistani suspect in Connecticut.
He managed to slip federal surveillance, according to two people familiar with the investigation and a law enforcement official. All spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to speak about the case.
Shahzad headed for JFK, calling in a reservation for an Emirates flight to Dubai by mobile phone while en route. He paid for the ticket in cash before boarding the plane, authorities said.
Emirates officials were unaware he was on the no-fly list because they did not check a web forum where the latest updates are posted. It was only when a customs agent assigned to the case spotted Shahzad's name on the flight manifest 30 minutes before takeoff that the authorities knew he was on board.
He was belted in to his seat when FBI investigators and police officers boarded the plane and took him into custody.
The time was 11.45pm.
