In Part 1 (of 4) of this Season 6 fan-edit, we find out the fate of the survivors after they detonated the bomb in the past. Also, the history of Jacob and the Man in Black is revealed through flashbacks.
EDIT DETAILS:
Like most avid LOST fans, I was disappointed by Season 6, not only because they wasted so much time throughout the season, but because the entire âflash-sidewaysâ world was a red-herring. We werenât flashing into an alternate universe at all, but rather a time many years in the future where all the characters were dead and trying to find each other in an elaborate purgatory they had created for themselves.
This show had always been about 2 things: the people and the island. I donât know about you, but I really donât care what happens to the characters when they die. Well, with this version, you wonât have to either. Inspired by the Prison Break trilogy on the main site, this version completely removes the afterlife flashes from season six and turns it into a miniseries divided into 2-hour parts.

Final Cut List for Part 1:
Cut List - LOST - The Miniseries, Part 1
Original Name: LOST - Season 6 ("LAX" parts 1 and 2, "What Kate Does," "Across the Sea")
Original Runtime: 171 minutes
New Runtime: 125 minutes
Amount of time cut: 46 minutes
This one is a combination of the episodes above with no "flash-sideways". Also, flashbacks tell the details of Jacob and the MiB's past. A few other trims were made here and there, but the story mostly remains in tact for this part. Part 2 will have lots more cuts and re-arranging.
- Added the scene from the Season 5 finale to the beginning with Flocke killing Jacob. The end of this scene then goes to a flashback of their mother arriving on the Island and giving birth to the twins. Then, to the LOST logo.
- After the logo, we get a quick recap of the Losties dropping the bomb in the construction site, then we see what happened to them.
- NO FLASH-SIDEWAYS!
- Using the episode, "Across the Sea," flashbacks are inserted throughout this edit explaining Jacob and MiB's past. The final scene of this part is Jacob laying his mother and brother to rest in the caves, thus explaining the two bodies in the caves with the stones.
- Cut a scene of Jack and Kate sharing a moment before she goes to look for Sawyer. Mostly for pacing.
- Cut Miles and Hurley over Sayid's body saying goodbye.
- Rearranged some scenes so that the stuff with the group on the beach is spread out through this part. This also meant trimming a little dialogue at the temple.
- Cut out all of the spots where it went to black on the commercial breaks.
- Added "A Fan Edit by DriggyDriggs" (my nick name) before the episode starts.
- Added some credits where necessary due to cutting out the flash-sideways.
