Lost Theories, Quantum Physics and the Finale of Questions

Suddenly, everyone ends up going into the front door of a church, except Jack, who has for some inexplicable reason, to go in through the rear entrance just so he can look again into a coffin. Jack, ever the doubting Thomas, is ripped out of his universe with the words of John Locke echoing in his ears, “You don’t have a son!”

The universe that left “Parallel Jack” with mysterious neck abrasions and cuts moves in and moves Jack out.

Nice. I guess in a way Jack was right. It didn’t work. (detonating the Atom Bomb) it just created a collapsible alternate universe that faded like a desert mirage when subjected to reality.

More confusing, is the status of all the other characters in the church, and the one outside- Ben who must have needed a little more time in purgatory. After all, he had the murders of everyone in the Dharma Initiative including his own father on his hands.

Jack’s father’s statement that some go before you and some after does nothing to clear the air on what became of original Sawyer, Claire, etc. who flew away on the greatest improbability of all, the resurrected jet.

What about Hugo? Someone has to feed the dog, right? Is Hugo alive on the island?

Bad Robot! Lost Writers Give Themselves Permission to do Nearly Anything in Final Season | Perilous Parallel Universes

Using the old standby of parallel universes, Lost writers give themselves twice the opportunity to solve the problems of Lost. Lost writers can satisfy twice the viewers. The Lost writers can give twice as many Lost theorists the opportunity to claim, “I was right!”

If they really feel inclined, the writers can add even more parallel universes, six or seven more, according to some quantum physics models.

The winners? If the writers and producers of Lost don’t overplay their quantum logic, everyone gets a chance at satisfaction with their personal lens and their own view of the meaning of the story of Lost.

If the show does a shoddy job ending what has been an adeptly spun yarn, which hasn’t happened yet in my opinion, then everyone may end up feeling- lost in translation, in the final episode.

Aside from the main characters like Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Sayid, Hurley and John Locke there are a host of sub-characters who are presumably alive in the un-Desmond-affected universe who are still living- or does fate step in and deal the final blow?
