the “flash forward” in “through the looking glass”

i had a thought on this, if you notice jack through the through the looking glass episode his beard is quite grey but in the flashes his beard is thick and dark. in the state he was portrayed as i do not believe he would have gone out to buy hair dye. he seemed more obsessed with “getting back” so surely this couldn’t be a flash to the future????

    More than likely the stubble Jack had on the Island was his natural colour.

    The beard Jack wore in the future was fake. And they probably didn’t want to make it grey because we would’ve picked up on the whole “it’s not a flashback but a flashforward!” sooner, rather than at the end.

    How would you then explain him seeing Kate and saying “i have got to get back to the island”.

    Or Kate saying, “Still pulling people out of burning wreckage, I see.” To which Jack replies, “Old habits die hard.”

    Did you notice Jacks phone was a Razr? That phones newer than the tech that was around when the plane crashed. I think thats why he had one, to show that it happens after they’re picked up, or rescued, as it doesnt seem to fit their reaction at all…..

    lol yeah jin’s flashback phone wasn’t a razr, it was the size of a small mini-fridge.
