More and MOre Jack s taking control. He is a LEADER and his flashbacks reinforced what we already knew to be true!..

He is sick of dealing with lies and manipulation. I literally jumed out of my seat when he told SINDY to Get moving! her first two nswere were vague lies that didnt answer his questions in any way. He wasnt havign it, especially when she wanted answers she probably already knew. ( about anna lucia ) IN my opinion she wanted Jack to look like a bad guy in front of that snaggle toothed lillte robot girl.

And again when Juleit comes to his cage the first time. I jumed out the seat and did a backflip. " let me simplify it for you! i am not going to help you or Henry" I love it. no mor BS. now that Kate is safe. Jack is in charge. He uses the time that buys him to come up with a way to keep himself alive and gain a bargaining chip... juliet.

He even says this in the interview when he says "I wanted to turn you guys against each other"... to "cause chaos".

He tells henry that he needs jack next to him for a while. And what better way to control the others that to control thier leader. I LOVE IT!
Put a few strings in his back and be the puppet master, Literally!

We know juliet has a thing for Guys who take conrol of situations. so yes she is becoming putty in jacks hands becuase no matter what brainwashing thye have tried to do to her.. she knows jack is the best person on all the islands!

and yes... ( thanks to the tatoo explanation ) now he will be walking among the others but not be one of them!!! increasing his power and abilities to take control of situations...

Thats right... Yall others best FEAR JACK, he's smater than all of you combined and is patiently waiting for his chance to LEAD!
