I hadn't really thought about this before but all of the time jumps seem to be taking them to very significant moments in the past - the day Yemi's plane crashed, the night Aaron was born and Desmond turned on the hatch light, the day Rousseau and her team arrived on the island, etc. I mean, of course, its great for the show and we the viewers to see these moments, but I wonder if it could also be that somehow The Island is picking specific moments in time to re-visit?

About Ben being a genius and a sneaky manipulator...remember at the very end of season 4 in the funeral parlor, Ben told Jack that they would all have to go back to the Island? And Jack said he didn't know how he could convince everyone. Ben said, "Perhaps I can help you with that...You have to do it together, all of you."
Jack asked, "How?"
And Ben said, " I have a few ideas."
