Okay, here are my notes as I watched the episode. Obviously tons of spoilers, so don't read if you haven't watched it yet.

*****

So Kate and Jacob met when she was a kid. Interesting that Jacob wasn't always on the island.

So they have to dismantle the bomb to move it. But didn't Richard say in the last episode that "they'd get it out the same way [they] got it in", implying he knew exactly how it got down there in the first place? Why the change of plans?

Weird that Richard doesn't know how/why Locke is alive.

Wow, Jacob met Sawyer as a kid too. Guessing this will become a theme across all our O6 characters.

Darn, would've been interesting to see how the sub goes to and from the island.

OH SHIT! Nadia gets drilled by a car thanks to Jacob. Interesting, Sayid and Nadia were married. What time/life did that happen I wonder?

Weird that Richard just abandons Jack and Sayid on their way to blow up the island. Richard must know more than he's letting on.

Uh-oh, Sayid down. Is he the main character they're killing off?

Holy shit, Vincent?! Oh snap! Rose and Bernard! LOL @ Bernard! They don't seem too pleased. They look good though.

So the other-others know about Jacob. Interesting.

Jacob and Anna... interesting. Guess she's going to be a main character next season.

"[Jacob] isn't there. Hasn't been in a long time. Someone else has been using it" -- talking about the smoke monster?

Jacob reading "Everything that Rises Must Converge" by Flannery O'connor at the time Locke falls out of the building, breaking his back. And Jacob brings Locke back to life?! Definitely some super-natural thing going on with Jacob.

So Ben was telling the truth. He never met Jacob. I remember watching that episode back in S2(?) when Locke and Ben went to see Jacob. And there were flashes of "Jacob" sitting in the chair in that cabin. Looked kinda like Christian.

Nice... Sun finds Charlie's ring. I was wondering if that would ever turn up again.

Wow, Jacob meets Sun and Jin not too long ago. He definitely seems to be hand-picking people. But why?

Man, first hour FLEW by!

And there's Jacob and Jack. Hmm... kinda thought he mighta been the reason his patient survived.

Haha... Jacob and Hurley. Oooh, he visited Hurley after he left the island. Interesting.

Wow, they really drop the nuke. Oh shit, they're killing off Juliet! NO! So the nuke didn't even do anything. Hmm.

OH SNAP! What lies in the shadow of the statue! He just busted out some latin!! Guess we'll have to wait for the translation to learn what it means. Wow, Locke was in the box. Who is meeting with Jacob, indeed!

OMG, "Locke" is someone from the Black Rock from the beginning! I guess next season will be all about who Jacob is, where he came from, who are the people from the Black Rock, how did they find out about the island, why were they trying to get there, what's this "loophole", and so on.

Wow, Juliet isn't dead yet. Sigh... stupid nuke never went off. Sayid sucks at rigging explosives. Ok, so a lengthy drop down the shaft didn't set it off, but a few quick taps with a rock does it. Sigh. Great way to end it though, with it going off.

Conclusion? Fucking EPIC season finale. Surpassed all expectations. EPIC! Gonna be a long wait till next year.
