Disclaimer: I do not own Lost. I am not J.J. Abrams, nor am I Damon Lindelof, and have no input into the show whatsoever. With that said, on with the gag ending!
This one is based on season three. The Others, as you know have a book club. So I got to thinking, what if Ethan and Goodwin were merely selecting new potential members to join their little book club. I mean after all, when you are in a club with the same members for years and years, you'd want some new blood right?
This would mean that the only real "good one" of the survivors is Sawyer, cuz he's the only one who reads. Here's how I think season three could end:
Sawyer: So what the hell did you guys capture us for anyway?
Ben: All of you have been undergoing a selection process. We have spent the past two weeks determining which one of you is suitable for our book club.
Jack: That's it? You mean that all this was for a damn book club?
Ben: That's right, Jack. And we decided that Sawyer is the only one of you who is worthy of joining our ranks. ::looks at Sawyer:: That is, if you're willing to accept our offer.
Kate: Sawyer, you can't seriously be considering their offer?
Sawyer: Sorry, Freckles, but I love reading more then life itself.
Yes, I have some sembelnce of a life. I have a job and I hang out with my friends at least once every other week. Yet I still manage to spend this much time thinking about things like Lost.
