Harper Stanhope

Theory 1: Harper can time travel

Evidence

  • This is how she appears and disappears right in front of Juliet and Jack.
  • This is also how she knows (in the flashback) that Ben will kill Goodwin if he finds out about his relationship with Juliet. This is why Harper is more concerned about Goodwin's safety than hurt about the affair.

Counter-evidence

  • Individual characters time traveling has yet to be proven (though there seems to be some evidence indicating that Richard Alpert may have).

Theory 2: The Harper Juliet sees in the present is "the monster"

Evidence

  • Like the apparitions of Yemi and Christian on the island, the monster is taking advantage of Juliet's guilt by manifesting as Harper and telling her to kill Daniel and Charlotte to advance its own ends.
  • This is how she appears and disappears right in front of Juliet and Jack.

Counter-evidence

  • Goodwin might have been a more convincing vessel.


Charles Widmore

and the Hanso Foundation

and his reason for finding the island

  • Charles Widmore wants to find the island
    • to take advantage of the unique healing properties
      • for exploitation for personal gain
      • to cure himself or someone he cares about who is dying of some kind of inoperable cancer, or paralyzed like Locke.
    • to continue the work DHARMA started or start some new sort of experimentation on the Island's strange properties.
