Complete Episode Guide: Cabin Fever Guide
Cabin Fever Theories
- Jacob had something to do with Locke being born, with his whole existence. I think Jacob may have created Locke in order to save himself.
- Richard wanted Locke to pick the bottle of sand, which would mean that the island belonged to him. Because he didn't pick the sand, Richard knew it wasn't time for Locke to come save the island.
- Ben says he should have realized at the time that trying to kill Locke was pointless. Now that he is not so emotional, he realizes that the island won't let Locke die because Locke still has work to do.
- I think if Locke would have gone to "Mittelos Laboratories" Richard would have taken him to the island.
