LOST is a show unprecedented in its writer's and producer's decision to end the show at the end of its sixth season in May 2010. Since this end-date was announced, the show's storylines have tightened up, and Wednesday's episode, "Jughead," clearly showed how the pieces of the complex LOST puzzle are finally coming together.
The episode focused on Desmond's quest to find Daniel Faraday's mother, who is the key to stopping the island's erratic flashes through time. We also got revealing glimpses of what is happening to those left on the island, which has been sent back to 1954. We learn that "Jones" captured by Sawyer, Juliet, and Locke last week is in fact a young Charles Widmore. We also meet a young British woman on the 1954-island named Ellie. She comments on the fact that Daniel keeps staring at her, and he says that she looks familiar. I believe we have seen her in the show before, only slightly older (compare pictures below).
Ellie: 1954
Eloise Hawking: 2007
I think that it is safe to say that Ellie is in fact Eloise Hawking and Daniel's mother. From episode 5.02, we learn that Ms. Hawking is in Los Angeles helping Ben get the Oceanic 6 back to the island. From this week's episode, we also learn that Faraday's mother is also in LA.
Next week's episode, titled "The Little Prince," will hopefully shed some more light on this question. With only 31 hours of the show left, fans of the series are in for a bittersweet and exciting ride!
