Variable Constants

Lost, in general, questions if we have free will or if free will is an illusion. These two episodes focus specifically on the same idea in another context, which is time travel. Farhaday in particular struggles with question of changing what already happened. Of course changing the past or the future depends on perspective and how that perspective will shift as the survivors attempts to alter, or not alter, the past. What is interesting is how quickly everyone forgets their own perspective, their own choices. Sawyer is most upset when Jack and Kate return. He forgot about the choices they all can make.
