4 8 15 16 23 42: The Secret of Lost
If Jack hadn't pressed the button, it would have all ended. The island is a second chance for everyone on it. For Locke it is the second chance to be the man he always wanted to be. For Jack, it is the chance to find faith, to redeem himself for losing his wife because he lacked it. For the Korean guy, the chance to redeem himself with his wife. For the father of Walt, the chance to be the father he never was. For Sawyer, the chance to be selfless for the first time in his life.
If the time passes, and the button isn't pressed, the game is over... and the second chance is over. Perhaps they are being judged... it is how they act on the island that determines where they go in the afterlife.
What are your thoughts?
