Just went to google LOST screencaps to refresh my memory…
S1 Ep1: Our hero, Jack, running through the jungle to the site of the disaster. = Our hero, Charming, riding his horse into the forest to the site of Snow’s coffin.

I predict we’ll get someone in NL, one of PP’s minions, (Juliet wasn’t head honcho of the Others, she was a minion), going about their business, when suddenly the JR comes leaping up in the middle of the ocean.
Then, if they want to keep mirroring the first ep of S2, after the title card, they’d show Mulan and Aurora going to revive Phillip, because in S2 we went from Neal in NYC to Mulan and Phillip going to revive Aurora. Maybe then that could merge into present day FTL where they’re recounting the events to Nealfire?
