This week, Ben took Locke to see Jacob, the leader of The Others.
Jacob was in a cabin in the woods surrounded by a circle of strange ash on the ground. The inside of Jacob's cabin was dark and there were jars of liquid on a shelf.
Ben talked to someone in a chair that Locke couldn't see or hear.
As Locke was leaving the cabin, he heard Jacob say "Help me". Then Lock turned on his flashlight and stuff started flying around the room breaking.
Ben tried to grab whatever was in the chair and was thrown against the wall.
While we were watching, my wife said they showed a flash of someone else in the room.
We used TiVo to go back and pause the show to reveal Jacob (photo at right).There are many theories floating around the internet about Jacob.
Clearly, Ben is keeping him captive with the circle of ash.
What is that crazy thing on the side of Jacob's head?
A gunshot wound?
A wig?
A monkey, bird, basketball, or cat, sitting on his shoulder?
Who is Jacob?
Locke's twin brother?
A pirate?
Although the lighting in the Jacob screen-captures is poor, I immediately recognized the face. The profile comparison is undeniable proof. Jacob is indeed someone that we know very well...

I didn't catch the glimpse of Jacob during the show, but it was fairly obvious that whovever was sitting in the chair was trying to draw an offensive foul on Ben.
