Spoiler Roundup - updated March 18

I thought doing a spoiler roundup, compiling all the spoilers we know would be useful to all the people speculating. I’m still updating it, so bookmark this page and keep coming back. I will add the link to the sidebar shortly.

These spoilers include info we get from the press, casting sides, etc. - so some of them may not happen (for example, they may be cut from the episode). I will add a ? if the spoiler is not completely clear/confirmed. I will also only add the things that are TRULY spoilery - if we get a new set pic of JMo walking on set, and there are no spoilers in this except that Emma got a new jacket, I won’t add it here.

The producers plan to call back to the premiere’s pivotal clock-ticking moment in the finale. “It’s huge,” Pearlman says of the season-ender. “It’s quite large in typical Lost fashion. With Emma coming to town in the pilot, she got the clock to start ticking, which started to affect everybody in the town in different ways. In the season finale, there will be something that will happen that will affect everybody in the town.” (x)
