Ever since the Lost season finale aired, fans have been speculating about the newspaper clipping that Jack was reading in his flash-forward. The article, an obituary for a mysterious person, caused Jack a great deal of distress. Was the deceased an Other, an 815 survivor, or someone we haven't met?

Text of the newspaper clipping has turned up on some of the major Lost websites, including The Fuselage and Lostpedia. There's no word on whether the text is official, but it does fit with the excerpts of the article that were visible in the episode. The text is available after the jump.

Lost fans have been busy translating Naomi's statements from Wednesday's episode. TV Squad's Brigitte Dale and many others have pointed out that Mikhail lied about Naomi thanking him. She actually said "I am not the only one." As if the plane crash news wasn't strange enough! Her statement could be interpreted several ways, depending on who she's working with. At the very least, it sounds like someone else could have landed on the island.

Backwards Speech: Check out this post for a sound clip that features a backwards message. In one of Desmond's psychic flashes, you can hear Hurley saying "Can you hear me?" in reverse.

A Familiar Language: Naomi, the mysterious woman who landed on the island, had a Portugese copy of Joseph Heller's Catch-22. This could be an indication that Naomi works for Penny, since the two men who called Penny in "Live Together, Die Alone" spoke Portugese.

"Left Behind" was a little light on the Easter eggs this week. However, there were some thought-provoking clues thrown in between the chick fights and monster appearances.

Lost Library: As mentioned in the recap, Sawyer was back to reading Watership Down again. The book was last seen back in Season One's "Confidence Man." Perhaps he misses that poor, Ben-tortured bunny from Hydra Island?

An entirely fake book also showed up on the beach. Claire was seen reading a book called Rick Romer's Vision of Astrology. The book may not exist, but Rick Romer does. Romer is one of the set decorators for Lost. For my money, this is one of the funnier "book" choices featured on the island. I cannot wait to see someone reading Damon Lindelof's Guide to Australia.

"Exposé" had a lot of layers, and, naturally, contained plenty of Easter eggs. The Numbers made their usual appearance, and Sawyer continued to read at an impressive pace (it seems like he has a new book every time we see him). Here's what else the Lost fan community has found (spoiler warning for those who have not seen the episode):

The Numbers: There were quite a few uses of the Numbers in this week's episode. Exposé was in its fourth season, and fans are wondering if the fictional show's events hint at events to come in Lost's fourth season. Will the identity of Jacob be revealed, just as the Cobra was unmasked, in Season Four? Also, Howard's diamonds were worth eight million dollars, and the spider's poison lasts for eight hours.

In addition to featuring several huge surprises, "Par Avion" included the usual set of Easter eggs. Some were clear-cut, and some have been disputed on various blogs and message boards. So far, fans have come up with a decent list of clues, questions, and theories.

The Numbers: After Claire's tragic car accident, the number 108 was shown on her odometer (108 is the sum of all six numbers, as well as the magic timer number in the Hatch). During another flashback scene in the hospital, the following could be heard over the loudspeaker: "Dr. Addison, phone call on line 4." These examples could reinforce the idea that the numbers are cursed.

Lost's "Enter 77" episode gave us a closer look at another DHARMA station, The Flame. In the last few days, viewers have been busy finding clues about both the station and its mysterious inhabitants. The following Easter eggs have been found in last week's episode:

"Stranger in a Strange Land" cannot compete with "Flashes Before Your Eyes" in the Easter egg department, but there were a few useful clues. This episode moved away from the time theme and focused more on symbols. So far, fans have found the following eggs:

Marks: The overhyped revelation concerning Jack's tattoos shed some light on his possible future with the Others. Achara told Jack that he was a leader and a great man, then tattooed him with the phrase, "He walks amongst us, but he is not one of us." Fans that are familiar with the Chinese characters on Matthew Fox's arm have made it known that the characters represent the words "eagle," "strike," "long," and "sky" (or "void"). These words are connected to a poem by Chairman Mao Tse-tung, which contains the phrase "eagles high, cleaving sky" and discusses fate. Is Jack destined to lead the Others someday?
