To the poster asking about LOST characters, so far I have seen Miles and Penny (both main characters), and Charlie is in the preview for episode 4.
Yeah, I understand that these two shows share quite a few actors. However, I was under the impression that Lost producers and writers were involved in Flashforward. When I check IMDB I do not find evidence of this. Anyone know about this?
Also, when it comes to extending the story they could always do other Flashforwards, though I think that would be too easy.

There was supposed to be a billboard in the first episode for Oceanic airlines. It touted their perfect safety record. Take that as a "Lost" spoiler if you will.

I haven't seen written evidence but I remember when commercials for FF started coming out they always led with "From the creators of LOST".

Ok so keeping with theories and ideas, who do yall think that guy in the toy warehouse was? Was that Gibbons? And if not how does he relate to the blackouts?

No. Dee Gibbons is some lady that had her identity stolen. The guy in the toy warehouse seems to be the guy that stole her credit card, and they are calling him D. Gibbons for now. Which makes the little girl saying D. Gibbons is a bad man even more curious since I doubt this guy or any of his associates are going around calling him that. If only there were some way to find out what his daughter knows, like by asking her questions or something

Excellent point. Call me petty, but figuring why she called him "D. Gibbons" is important.

Dang it I forgot that. Now I remember that lady that came into the FBI is the real Gibbons. Shoot if I already forgot that I don't think I'll ever make it to the end of the series ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

I think it's potentially a huge plot hole. You'd have to presume that the information came from the FF. So either the daughter had multiple FF's, or she and Dylan have some contact with D. Gibbons in their FF, and D. Gibbons goes by D. Gibbons, which as discussed, doesn't make any sense.
I think one possibility is that the kids were being held captive by D. Gibbons during the FF. That would explain why Dylan's dad was over at the main guy's house with his wife, and why she felt strong emotions towards him. Still wouldn't explain the daughter calling him D. Gibbons though.
I really have to start learning these people's names. How the only name I know is the hospitaized boy that hasn't even said a word yet is beyond me

I'm pretty sure the wife called the guy in the living room honey. Also, they were in bed together for the longer FF.

My bad. They've shown the short one so many times I forgot about the long one. But unless I'm also forgetting a reference to the kids in the mom's FF, this doesn't rule out a kidnapping by D. Gibbons. Especially if that happened because of the main guy's job, I can see a kidnapping driving him to drink and pushing the wife and Dylan's dad together.

A possibility might be that Harold is unconscious due to the gunshots and the lady just thinks that he is dead. He is then recovers in time for the wedding and honeymoon.

She was reading a file that stated he was dead in her flash forward. She wasn't a witness to his murder or anything.

All the visions were of the exact same moment in the future. This would not make sense.

It doesn't make sense from Harold's standpoint but I had the same thought that just b/c she read that he was dead in a report doesn't necessarily mean he died. He could have faked his death or something. They may just trying to pull us away from the original idea someone posed earlier about him being "in" on it and/or lying about not seeing anything. I could see them going this direction.
I also like the idea about the fiance being crazy and him not actually being at the wedding though. I could see that too.

This brings to a point I made in another thread. Harold was so far away from the main character guy after the blackout that it had to be for a reason. The main character woke up in the car while Harold was on the other side of the bridge. I think him faking his death is a definite possibility. The only thing that might make this an iffy possibility is that he still had a look of surprise on his face when the woman told him he was murdered even though he was alone.

or the FBI could have helped to protect him for some reason. Plausible.

Not that she was crazy, but maybe she held the "wedding" anyway in his honor, even though he was dead.
Harold's death isn't too much of a concern right now, plenty of ways to deal with it.

all good theories, but if they did he should have seen that in his flash forward.
The fact that he saw nothing means he either died or was awake. Based on his interactions with his finance i think it's death. But like i said before i think he will change his future.
Could be a coma
