This episode was interesting. Here's something to think about that sort of buggin me; When John met Richard in the camp, he told Richard that he was his leader. Richard said that wasn't possible as they choose their leaders from a young age. John then told him that we was going to be born in 2 years and Richard should visit him when he's a baby. We know that Richard does this, so it would seem that the Others have chosen John to be leader before he crashes onto the island.
So, here's my question. Does John crash onto the island and take his position as leader, or does he change his own future by going into the past and talking to Richard?
Would he even be on the island if "past John" didn't have that conversation with Richard in the first place?
It's almost like what came first, the chicken or the egg?
