Flashback:


OMG Moments: In regards to the elusive Oceanic Six, Entertainment Weekly quotes: "By the end of the seventh episode,'all the candidates will have been fielded,' says Cuse."


New Clues: Sun is pregnant and it is important for her to get off the island quickly, before she and the baby die. That has to be the news that Juliete gives her.


Questions: Does she get off the island in time? Does Jin go with her?


Trivia:


Theories:

First_Marti : I feel she does not get off the island in time, and she and the baby die, either on the island or the boat. Jin wanted to get to America for Sun to have the baby, so I think that the coffin either has the baby "Ji Yeon" (which Jin wanted to name the baby) in it -- or I could be wrong. The hint to us was that the coffin held a HE in it, and the coffin was a child's or a baby's coffin.

1stop4 : Personally, I don't think it's a baby or small child in the coffin as it is too large, maybe a large pre-teenor a teenager. As such my theory is that Jin and Sunget off the Island and become the last two members of the Oceanic 6. My theory is that only those people who were not near the hatch at the time it imploded, and therefore escaped the effects of the electromagntism, can get off the Island without suffering from the side effects (hence why Sayid was not affected when travelling with Desmond to the Freighter). Therefore Sayid, Kate, Jack, Hugo, Sun, Jin and Sawyer can get off the Island without side effects. With Sawyers' current view on getting off the Island, that would explain why the Oceanic 6 could be rounded off with Sun and Jin as Sawyer would want to stay. Aaron would be safe as he has no memory of events before the Island so he has nothing to 'timeshift' back to, and that is why Claire has given him up to Kate because, in spite of not wanting to be parted from him, she doesn't want him to have to be brought up on the Island. It would also explain why eventually Hugo, and then Jack, decide that they should go back, because they realise that there is away of negating the side-effects as Desmond did, maybe even recalling that Desmond overcame them is what leads them to this realisation.
