Some bold endings the producers of ABC's Lost have been tossing around

  • The Man in Black is an immortal spirit whose real name is Anagram Nietzsche.
  • It turns out, The Numbers are in fact a series of Arabic numerals arranged in ascending order.
  • The Smoke Monster is Randy Nations! What do you mean who’s that - Hurley’s manager at Mr. Cluck’s Chicken Shack! Later, Locke’s boss…? So, anyway, do you get it?
  • The crash, the island happenings, the flash-forwards, and all other events in the show are a mass hallucination among the travelers of Oceanic Flight 815. The flight was actually delayed and they suffered hallucinogenic food poisoning at Sydney Airport’s Rockin’ Rolls Sushi bar.
  • … and then Sayid goes, “We call it… The Aristocrats!”
  • The key to the Island’s mystery is the shocking fact that Nikki and Paulo weren’t that bad, come on.
  • The Island is a vortex of time/space-bending energy with the power to cause miracles, such as adding another three seasons to a six-season contract if the ratings are good enough, and also it can heal people.
  • Senior writer’s note: “Something something Cheeseburger in Paradise.”
  • It was all a dream. All of it; you’ve been dreaming your whole life since September 22, 2004.
  • While walking angrily through the jungle, Locke stumbles upon Jack and Sawyer who are playing a game of pretend-tennis, without a ball. He humors them for a moment by following the invisible ball with his eyes. Then, he starts hearing the tick-tock of the ball. Tick, Tock. Tick! Tock! Tick! Tock! LOST.
