Pilot, Part 1/Theories

Theories about
Pilot, Part 1

Theories may be removed if ...
Stated as questions or possibilities (avoid question marks, "Maybe", "I think", etc). More appropriate for another article. Illogical or previously disproven. Proven by canon source, and moved to main article. Speculative and lacking any evidence to support arguments. Responding to another theory (use discussion page instead). This does not include responses that can stand alone as its own theory. Usage of an indented bullet does not imply the statement is a response. See the Lostpedia theory policy for more details.

When Jack regains consciousness, he has just been through Orchid-traveling. The opening scene of Pilot, Part 1 is very similar to that of "The Shape of Things to Come". Both Jack and Ben wake up, shaken, dressed up in a way that contrasts with their environment: Jack in a suit surrounded by nature and Ben in a parka in the middle of the desert.
Jack was not the only survivor to land in the jungle. Other survivors also landed there. Jack just happens to be the last to revive and join the others on the beach.
From what we were shown, Kate came out of the jungle some time after Jack did, after Jack had tended to some of the injured he went to another part of the jungle to check on his own wound only to encounter Kate emerging from the jungle.
The Monster killed the pilot, Seth Norris, because he had replaced Frank Lapidus, who was meant to be the pilot of Flight 815.
After killing the pilot, the Monster chased Jack, Kate and Charlie away from the nose section. The Monster could have killed all three but did not because the Island needed them.
Ben summoned the smoke monster on that first night to keep the Survivors from wandering inland.
