Re: John from Cincy Thread
[ QUOTE ]
The only thing we know is that John doesn't eat, sleep, or crap, and he doesn't say anything original outside of "The end is near" and "Mitch Yost needs to get back in the game".

We don't even know if those are original things (ie he could have heard those somewhere before the story picked up).
I've been thinking about the connection between Shaun, John (no coincidence they rhyme?), and the parakeet.
John obviously mimics everyone (both his speech and the surfing thing at the end of ep1), just like they made sure to show the parakeet doing when bobbing its head after Shaun brought it back to life.
Maybe John and the parakeet are related? Maybe Shaun has powers?
I just hope they're not being weird for the sake of being weird. As much as I like Lost I don't want another supernatural mystery show. It would be sweet if they were using the weirdness as a literary device to make us focus on the relationships between the characters (I've already thought about them much more than I would have).
