I'm confused about the Black Rock ...
Hi everyone,
Just watched Ab Aeterno now, and obviously we saw that the Black Rock carrying Richard and the rest of the slaves was shipwrecked pretty violently on the island. But, what confuses me, is that in "The Incident" season 5, in the opening scene, we saw MIB and Jcaob watching what we assumed was the Black Rock calmly approaching the island, whereas in this episode, it was raining, and the boat was smashed into the statue and island. I know I'm phrasing this really awfully, but is this supposed to be the same original Black Rock in both scenes, or possibly a different ship that Jacob summoned before the Black Rock ever came on the scene? Just a quick thought, I would doubt that it's a production error at this late stage in the serie…
The Man Behind the Curtain - Jacob/MIB?
Hi everyone,
I just had a thought after reading some of the blog posts on here. I apologise in advance if it's been said before, but I was thinking about the season 3 episode, "The Man Behind The Curtain," and the revelation of "Jacob" in the rocking chair.

We know MIB can take on the forms of the deceased, so maybes at that point he was taking on the form of someone we have not seen yet - I was thinking possibly the captain of the Black Rock, Magnus Hanso? I assume he died on the island, in unknown circumstances, he may have had connections with MIB on the island.…
