what a tease, bringing back Adam & Eve like that without much explanation. I'm hoping that Hurley's line about how it could be their bodies if they traveled to dinosaur times was the writer's way of writing off all those theories about Adam & Eve being any of the 815 survivors. That's kind of how they dealt with all the "purgatory theories" in season 3: by using Naomi as a foil to debunk those theories after teasing them one last time. Adam & Eve are too much of a core mystery to be given an anticlimactic payoff like "they're Rose and Bernard" or whatever.

Im sticking with Jack and Kate. Not necessarily romantically involved but mythology wise it makes sense

I hate to say it but i think that's all the answer there will be. I hope not but I think it's done.

Let me add it's really only a core mystery on this and other message boards. The casual view has little need to see this mystery through.

It would seem a crap payoff to find out theyre 2 completely inconsequential people that get introduced in this final season. Five years the theory of them possibly being any 2 of our losties has been milling about and while I understand they only did the time travelling last season and the opportunity to look at the long held theory happened in the episode it would be disappointing for it to be 2 new people.

For me it would close off another nice little loop but If it turns out to be Harry and Sally from who knows where then I would feel a little ripped off.

Edit: I think Jack lays them there and places the stones he surely still has possession of in the pocket of one of them possibly flocke since black and white is Lockes theme. Maybe after all is said and done Jack defeats MIB becomes the new Jacob and to close of the loop to ensure WHH he burys Flocke in the past with the stones. Sure its a stretch but hey Im surprised I havent seen any unicorns on this show.

I remember Damon Lindelof saying they wouldn't introduce a corpse on the show if they didn't know who it was and how it ended up there. Roger Linus being a glaring example. Keep the faith! All will be revealed...

I think it might be MiB and Claire. Just a feeling.

Well, I think SOME will be revealed is more likely, but that having been said, I'm pretty confident this will be one we'll get a very specific reveal (or series of them) about... and my money is on Jack and Kate as the most likely and that A&E are tied to the mythology, probably a significant piece that hasn't been clearly shown yet

I'm going out on a limb and saying they are Desmond and Penelope. Mostly because everyone else has been covered by someone.

I'm guessing Jack and Claire.

I was SO excited to see the Caves and Adam and Eve again! I actually had a squeal to my mate: "OhmyGod, the Caves! Dude, it's the Caves! OhmyGod!"
Could be Rose and Bernard, they were living on the Island (*Wants to see them On-Island!*) but really it could be anyone.
I think it will be revealed. It's been a mystery for such a long time. I think I LOT of people want to know. (Although, I liked the rumour that it was Amelia Earhart and her passenger)

At one point, TPTB said they introduced Adam and Eve in the first season to point to in later years and say "Look! We planned this all along!" That makes me think their identities still have significance. Because they really aren't proof of anything, yet.

Im convinced they are rose and bernard as we have not seen them this season and im sure we will somehow find out in either a jacob or MIB flashback,in which they are killed by either one of them.

I assume it is Nikki and Paulo.
100%

But we have seen them this season. So now what?

It's Rose and Bernard...Black & White.
They like it there.

The fact that Hurley suggests time travel as an explanation for Adam and Eve - to me suggests that this will NOT be the solution.

But there will be a solution. I am convinced of that.

I kinda think basing adam and Eve = Rose and Bernard because of the black and white stones cheapens the symbolism somewhat. I mean, that's what black and white stones were for? To indicate their race? Seems kinda not worth doing at all.

Its Rose and Bernard, they haven't been shown in 2007, and most likely didn't travel to 2007, remain in 1977.

I think Adam and Eve is Jack and Kate both for the mythology part and the romance part. It makes sense since they were the ones to find them, Kate's "I don't want to be Eve" to Jack in season one, on the trek there we are convinently reminded of Jack and Kate's relationship via Hurley to Jack, etc. No one else makes any sense to me.

Jack and Kate if you look at the series as a whole not only make sense in the romantic department but from a mythology stand point they have been at the helm of many mythology reveals together.

Edit: I think Jack lays them there and places the stones he surely still has possession of in the pocket of one of them possibly flocke since black and white is Lockes theme.

The stones don't have to come from Jack. He picked them off the skeletons in 2004, but the stones had to originate somewhere, otherwise the stones exist in an infinite loop like Locke's compass. So Jack isn't necessarily the one to place the stones with the skeleton.

Although I still like the idea of it, It was an afterthought which is why at the end I added...

I think that there's a way they can do this right without cheapening it. Rose and Bernard seem to know a little bit more than they let on -- remember the odd encounter they had with Juliet? I think they knew she was going to die.

Even if they don't know any more than the other Losties do, they are peaceful and resigned. They've had their battle of life already and are glad to stay on the Island.

However... I don't think that the writers would choose to show them so grotesquely, because of their peacefulness living on the Island. They would not be disrespected in death.

I don't think it's Rose and Bernard for that reason.

I'm having trouble with the whole cave thing to begin with. Didn't they move Adam & Eve out of the cave before they moved in, per Locke's suggestion?
