What does the Volvo have to do with this?

And also if Jack and Claire are brother and sister and Aaron is Jacks nephew, why would he be so uncomfortable going to Kates house. I read somewhere that Jack and Claire find out that they are related soon so why in the future does Jack not want to see the kid? Maybe Kate and Claire got really close and Kate decided to name her child (possibly with Sawyer) Aaron the same as Claire. It would make more sense for Jack to not be comfortable with Sawyers child than with his own nephew. Of course some things in LOST just don’t make sense sometimes.

Good comment dontellmewhaticando1. With what we know of Claire and her pregnancy, her meeting Jack’s dad before he dies, her live in boyfriend (the assumed father), the session with Richard. Could it be possible Jack’s dad is Aaron’s true father? And Aaron is the successor to Jack and the Island?

a whole new can of worms when is comes the Aaron.

“Could it be possible Jack’s dad is Aaron’s true father”

Line_artist… are you suggesting that Christian Shepard was ‘doing’ his own daughter?! Christian may be a drunk and a womanizer but thats going a bit far!

Jack’s apprehension at seeing Aaron is probably due to the fact that he’s a reminder of what a train-wreck his father was…not bad enough he was a womanizer but that he had another child outside of his marriage. Could also be because he feels guilty about not having saved Caire.

Jack’s apprehension IS confusing - and possibly key. It doesn’t make sense that if he KNOWS Aaron is Claire’s (and he knows that he’s related to Claire) that he would be uncomfortable seeing Aaron — unless?

1) Jack is beginning his downward spiral and cannot deal with anything that reminds him there are people still alive on the island (and in danger?) — Aaron is a key reminder of this as him MOM is still on the island. So Jack can live in his delusion (as Kate says, it sounds like he’s starting to believe his own Oceanic 6 story) as long as he doesn’t have to challenge himself all that much.

2) Perhaps Aaron, at this young age, exhibits “powers” like Walt’s — and that is just freaky to Jack so he stays away. Perhaps Aaron can cause manifestations like Christian, Charlie, etc. and, though Kate can deal with it because she has to, Jack is saying no way.

3) OR, perhaps (though unlikely) this Aaron is really Sawyer and Kate’s kid, and Jack doesn’t want to see him because (1) he REALLY doesn’t like Sawyer [imho, this is a really sucky reason and would damage Jack’s character badly], (2) Jack knows that Sawyer doesn’t know and is still on the island and that makes him (Jack) feel guilty (see #1 above re: Claire,etc) because now the child doesn’t have his biological father with him.

Honestly - this is a tough one based on Jack’s character so far; none of these reasons make sense in my gut — but I’m curious to see how this all falls out!

Another thing i noticed is that Claire’s boyfriend Richard looks alot like Ben, and the mural in the swan hatch looked alot like the pictures he was painting in his apartment, and the picture in Mr. Widmore’s office.

This is far fetched but what if Ben had a child with Annie his childhood love. she gives birth to Richard, he spends up to around his teenage years on the island (most likely when he painted the swan) Ben is planning his purge so he tell Richard (the other one) to take him off the island.

He meets Claire gets her pregnant and then she has Aaron. if this was the case then Ben would be Aaron’s Grandfather, Christian Shepard would be the other grandfather, and jack would be the uncle. It would be one big crazy LOST family

Aaron is NOT one of the Oceanic SIX….this is confirmed by the statements during Kate’s trial…ONLY six of the 8 plane crash survivors survived…Aaron wasnt born yet to be a crash survivor..if you werent on the manifest..you are not part of the Oceanic SIX.

Next week is going to be VERY interesting with it possibly being a Desmond flash forward. He’s the Elizabeth 1 I guess….

line, +1 for the first part of your theory. I totally agree, not totally that it’s Dharma that arranges it, but the rest I think is right.

Here’s where I think you go wrong: Aaron is not considered one of the Oceanic 6 and Christian is dead, but has already met Claire in Australia.

I also agree with Stretch. Christian could not be Aaron’s father, I just don’t see incest going on in Lost.

pcg, Claire’s boyfriend’s name was Thomas, but I do agree and it has been noted here many times that Ben and Thomas bear a striking resemblance. Thomas’s paintings, the one’s in Widmore’s office and the mural in the swan are very much alike. (They were in fact all painted by the same person, in real life) But back to Lost, Desmond painted the mural in the Swan during his years there alone, so that rules Thomas out as the painter there.

I can’t rule out, without proof, that somehow Annie got pregnant by Ben and he sent her off island to have the baby so they would survive. It could possibly be Thomas. Until I have proof otherwise, I can go along with this.

My thoughts on Jack’s reaction to Kate’s “baby” are that whatever happened on the island to get the Oceanic 6 back to the real world was so traumatic and painful that to see Aaron would be too painful for Jack. Perhaps Claire dies in this final struggle and seeing Aaron would be a reminder to Jack of that. Kate says that she understands why Jack does not want to see Aaron but says that she will not see Jack until he does. I don’t think Kate would force a son she had with Sawyer on Jack in that way. It does make sense that she would say that if something traumatic happened though. It also makes sense that she would take Aaron if Claire had died because so far she is the only woman of the Ocean 6. Also, remember that Claire was told to raise her baby herself and not give him up for adoption? I think the only way that Claire and Aaron would not be together is if something happened to Claire.

lordgreystoke422, technically Aaron was on the plane, just not born yet… So he could be listed as a survivor.

And what’s there to support the passenger manifest is the real deal after the rescue? It’s seems the freighter is part of “the system” and capable of deception. We know that more than 8 passenger survive the crash.

I’d like to stick with Aaron as one of the Oceanic 6…

In the last Podcast the producers say that the remaining two of the Oceanic 6 will be introdueced, “but they may be tricky”. I think that “Aaron” is not counted as one of the Oceanic 6. He could still be Claire’s, but could of been hidden from the exposure for some reason.

DO NOT READ IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE UPSET!! I am not even sure if this is entirely true but I read somewhere that the remaining Oceanic 6 are Jin and Sun. One of the original 8 episodes for this season is Jin/Sun centric and the title of the episode is the name of their child. Like I said, I do not know if there is any real truth to this but I like it. I want them to get off of the island because of Sun’s pregnancy. Hopefully this is not disappointing to anyone seeing that I am not sure where I saw it or if it even true.

donttell…..That is true. It is Jin and Sun

interesting concept with Jin and Sun…. but couldn’t the person in the coffin be one of the Oceanic Six?

Jin and Sun’s relationship isn’t very strong. Sun’s is now speaking less english and is considering returing home to raise the newborn. Also based on The Island, woman are not capable of bearing children, Sun’s upborn was conceived on The Island according to Julliet. There is a possibility she does not make it.

I think the Six have already been reveiled with the exception of the identity of the person in the coffin.

The “Aaron” in 4.4 episode has to be Claire´s son. I don´t think Kate named her baby Aaron or anything like that.. Aaron said “HI MUMMY” with an Australian accent. Kate seemed really strange in this episode, paranoid, kinda crazy… she was creepy in that last scene.. her face when she said “hi aaron”.. aaaaaa, weird.. lost just keeps getting better and better, I feel sorry for those people who stopped tuning in cause they thought the show got too confusing.

Jackofalltrades: “What does the Volvo have to do with this?”

It appears to be a newer Volvo S80 model, available august 2007

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_S80

At the end of the Eggtown eps. it says “2 year old boy” (or child… can’t remember), but the boy portrayed as Aaron is supposed to be 2 years old not 4.

When I first saw the little boy, I couldn’t help but think he looks just like sawyer did, in the eps. where his parents die. Maybe its just wishfull thinking, cause I don’t want claire to die and I would like sawyer and kate end up together.

I don’t really think that the person in the coffin was one of the O-6, but that it was someone that had someting to do with the island and them. All of the O-6 were “famous”, so I think the newspaper clipping would have said something like “One of the Oceanic 6 was found dead …”
