  1. Stated as questions or possibilities (avoid question marks, "Maybe", "I think", etc).
  2. More appropriate for another article.
  3. Illogical or previously disproven.
  4. Proven by canon source, and moved to main article.
  5. Speculative and lacking any evidence to support arguments.
  6. Responding to another theory (use discussion page instead).
  • This does not include responses that can stand alone as its own theory.
  • Usage of an indented bullet does not imply the statement is a response.

See the Lostpedia theory policy for more details.

  • The secondary protocol gives explicit instructions into how to move the Island. After reading them Keamy knew what to do to catch Ben, as the secondary protocol would explain the criteria for its use, and how to carry it out. Keamy was basically using the secondary protocol book to work against the secondary protocol Ben was trying to carry out. Some evidence of this is the fact that the protocol has the Orchid on the cover. The fact Ben was trying to use the Orchid to carry out a task, while Keamy only ended up trying to set an ambush up at the Orchid gives a suggestion who was following the protocol and who was just using it to get intelligence on how to stop it.
  • Daniel knows about the Secondary Protocol because he's been to The Orchid before (through his time travelling, and as evidenced in his diaries).
    • Daniel has been/will be in the Orchid station, as shown in the Season 5 opener.
  • The Secondary Protocol involves using the H-bomb that Daniel asked to be buried in concrete in Jughead. Charles Widmore is well aware of this bomb, as it was a major issue at the time, and it is quite possible Widmore also knows where this bomb was buried.
