Also if you look at the picture of Jacob it IS Locke with hair. So it very possibly could be. Unless they just used that actor temporary.

Carlton Cuse: Uh -
Damon Lindelof: None, none, of this has anything to do with "Flashes - "
Carlton Cuse: Talk about -
Damon Lindelof: - "Before Your Eyes"
Carlton Cuse: So talk about Dam- uh Desmond's flashback, Damon. I can't say Damon and Desmond in the same sentence so. Did he really go back, or is that still questionable? What are the implications of his vision? And will he be able to harness this power?
Damon Lindelof: Yeah, I guess it wasn't really quite a flashback in the, in the conventional sense of the way that we do flashbacks on the show, you know, the reality of it is, this is more the experience that he had when he turned the fail safe key and obviously as evidenced by certain future memories that he's having during his flashback. Uh, for the first time in the history of the show we actually allowed a character to have an opportunity to make a different choice than they make before and, uh, Desmond doesn't. He is, he's, he, he is, he is course corrected by, by a certain mysterious, uh, older lady in a ring shop. So uh, uh what, what was your question?
Carlton Cuse: No, that was fine, that was -
Damon Lindelof: Does that cover it?
Carlton Cuse: When it comes to an answer, that pretty much covers it. Well, we're - I suppose people want to know what does this mean?
Damon Lindelof: Was it really - did it really happen?
Carlton Cuse: Yeah did it really happen?
Damon Lindelof: Uh, yeah! I think it really happened. I mean -
Carlton Cuse: I think it did to.
Damon Lindelof: You know, one of the things that we've tried very rarely to do on the show is to, to play something as only having been imagined or dreamed. And you know, I'd, I would, I would say that in the global sense of things, that Desmond, back in, you know back in the, the year 1996, actually had that experience. Now, I would venture to guess that in future flashbacks of Desmond's, that they would be, treated as traditional flashbacks where he doesn't really have any awareness of his destiny, but in this particular instance, uh, we went outside the box a little.
Carlton Cuse: Right, I mean I think it's, uh, it's entirely possible he can have a traditional flashback story as well.
Damon Lindelof: Absolutely, but I think what's interesting is there are, there are certain things that happen the way that they used to happen, that he changed as a result of being in the past, that might sort of resonate over time, you know. Like getting hit in the face, instead of the bartender, or the fact that the photograph of he and Penny got take uh - got, got taken the day that he broke up with her. Maybe, maybe in a, in another incarnation there were two photographs, you know. Maybe they, maybe they've, maybe there was a two for.
Carlton Cuse: You -
Damon Lindelof: That would explain how she got one.
Carlton Cuse: You seem a little somber today, maybe a little banjo music would cheer yuu up.
Damon Lindelof: (Laughs) Don't make me (Carlton laughs), don't make me ask you to play that banjo. (Laughs)
Carlton Cuse: Here we go!
