When Hurley asked this Sun said "no," and Hurley replied "Good." What was that all about? At first I had the crazy idea that Sun and Hurley had a thing going. Obviously that's not the case, but why would no one come see the baby? Where are the other Oceanic 6? What could possibly have happened to keep them away from seeing Sun's new baby, especially if they all know Jin is dead? And why would Hurley be happy no one else was coming? Weird.

Dude, (or dudette)

I think you are reading too much into it. I think Hurley was just being polite and truthful. I mean if you had spent months cooped up on island with Jack, Kate, and random smoke monsters, you would probably enjoy a break from all of them. I actually agree with Hurley's sentiment. Now as to why they go to the tombstone, who knows. Perhaps Jin is forced to give up his life in order for Sun to make it off the island, something I don't doubt he would do.

I thought it was interesting as well,PotPie! So was Hurley able to check himself out the mental institution to come? Do the O6 stay in touch that Hurley would even know that Sun had her baby? I was surprised that Jack wouldn't have come (I'm talking about the cleaned up version of Jack that visited Hurley and testified at Kate's trial).

Okay,
for some reason, I'm not surprised that Jack didn't show. But consider this. If Jin really does die on the island, then that means Hurley and Sun have something om common that the rest of the Oceanic 6 don't: they both lost someone they loved, cuz I think that Hurley really loved Charlie (as a friend of course) and perhaps they are both in mourning, and visiting that grave gives them a chance to let go of their memories of Jin and Charlie.

Hurley also lost Libby on the island. Sayid lost Shannon on the island. (Do the rest of the Oceanic6 even know that Sayid is off the island? Is he considered part of the Oceanic 6?) Don't forget how hard Boone's death was on Jack.

Right,
I stand corrected.

I think Sayid is not one of the O6. We are constantly reminded of how famous the O6 are - like when they recognized Sun at the hospital. But Sayid was out in public all the time with that woman he killed, and with the golf guy - but apparently no one recognized him. So we know only 4 of the 6 for sure - Jack, Kate, Hurlet, Sun.

And Aaron.

I would say Aaron is probable, not for sure. The only reason I think probable is that the promo for that ep said an O6 would be revealed, and Aaron is the only candidate.

Sayid says that he is one of the O6. I thought it interesting that none of Sun's family was with her. Her family knew Jin before the crash, yet they didn't come, or Sun didn't call them. It seemed a very private moment that Sun was only sharing with Hurley? Was Hurley somehow responsible for helping Jin get Sun off the island? Is that why Hurley even left the island - we know that he was not with Jack's group, that he was living with Locke's group. In maybe somehow saving Sun did Hurley realize that Locke was, as Bernard said, "a murderer" and that was why Hurley told Jack he was sorry he didn't go with Jack?
