Well, for some reason they can't kill each other. Who knows why. Locke is postured in some insanely complicated scheme to kill Jacob, literally years in the making. As I have said in the past, I think faraday may have been misled in the lack of choice. If anything, it looks like Jacob has np direct influence but steers choices instead. At anytime they might have been able to get off the train. Jacob probably figured he could talk ben out of it of something. But "Locke" had everything covered, with possibly several time "loops" to work it out. The anhks are obvious references to their immortality. Richard says in latin "he who will serve/protect us all" or something to that effect. I rewatched it today, and a really good line from Jacob is : "do you like it? I made it myself, it's taken a very long time. But I guess that's the point when you make all the thread yourself (or something like that)". I think it's a direct explanation of his part in all this. Ok enough stream of conciousness, fuck iPhone is hard to type on.
