Lost #4.12/13: There’s No Place Like Home pts. 2/3

Done!  All finished!  All the stories did converge, past present and future.  Nowhere else to go!  The FlashForwards are now the Present.  I don’t need to recap, but I’ll try to figure out what is left.  It appears that the Oceanic 6 are lying in the future, in order to protect those left on The Island from being found.  Who from what I can tell is only Juliet, Sawyer, Locke, Rose & Bernard, the “new” people (Charlotte, Daniel, Miles), and the group of Others.  BUT all the survivors are being haunted by a Jeremy Bentham, who is telling them they have to go back to The Island because of horrible things.  And then it is revealed that Bentham is dead, and who he really is.  So I assume season 5 is them figuring out a way back?  (Ben is there to help!)  It seems that Locke has always been right, and there’s a reason that all of them ended up there.  Hopefully this reason becomes clear too.  Otherwise I feel like, for the most part, this ending right now is pretty satisfying; the questions left hanging are not extreme.  And where it is now, there’s not really much hint at what is to come.
