Forgive me as I am bad with names but....

When the research team (Daniel, Miles, Charlotte) was chosen for the mission, the 4th member (the girl who parachuted in with a picture of Penny & Desmond) had military background.

She met the black man (who had shown up in the recruitment process for Juliet) in the empty office space & questioned why that team was chosen as that were not "mission" material. He stated they were chosen for a reason. Her purpose was the Desmond connection & to help them safely get on the island.

We already know that Charlotte grew up there, Miles did as well (as the son of the actor who plays Dr Marvin Candle in the Dharma videos), so it only goes to reason that Daniel did too. We know he is the son of Eloise & Charles Widmore.

We can now speculate that Charlotte is the daughter of Annie (Ben's childhood friend on the island) and ??

I say Charles Widmore too... as they are about the same age & it would tie in well with the rivalry between the two men. You can't strike a lower blow than have a child with the love interest of an enemy.

Another thought is they both loved her... but maybe she is the child of Ethan (?) who was the gigolo of the island (which we learned when Juliet arrived) Ben became interested in her & Ethan showed up, even though he was married to the psychiatrist who knew he was a cheater.

Annie was sent off the island with Charlotte before the massacre to England where her life was funded by Charles Widmore. Daniel mentioned he was in love with Charlotte.. childhood crush?? Like the Ben/Annie crush formed on the island??

Little did they know they are possibly related... same father, different mothers?? Charlotte said she never saw her father again.. could have been Charles, Ben or Ethan... or one of them pretending to be (hiding the real paternity.. maybe Annie didn't know who the father was?)

Your thoughts???

I don't think we know for sure that Miles is Candle's son, do we?  Personally, I do think so, but I don't think it's been confirmed.

Also, same deal for Daniel being Widmore's son -- I never heard that one.

Yeah, I dont think there is any proof that widmore is daniel's father. And I don't remember Abbadon showing up for Juliets recruitment at all. And by Ethan I think you mean Goodwin. I'm not sure Miles and Charlotte being on the island automatically means Daniel was too, he hasnt had any nosebleeds so supposedly he has the least amount of time on the island, at least for now. And I don't think there is a incestual relationship going on with Dan and Charlotte. thats just, ew.

I agree we know Daniel Faraday is the son of Eloise but how do we know he is the son of Charles Widmore?

Is it possible Daniel and Charlotte are siblings?

The hole is Dan? and When did Widmore and Hawkins get off the Island?

That would make Penellope and Dan at least half siblings?

Remember Dan might be a time traveler but he was still studying this in 1996?

Luke had a thing for Leia before he found out she was the "other" Yoda mentions. Smiley

I'll have to re-watch Daniel's profession of love for Charlotte to check creepiness factor. As I recall it could be seen as brotherly love. Has there been major lip-lock between them?

I suppose. The producers are big star wars fans. But my impression is that Dan is ga-ga in love with her, not love-ya-like-a-sister- in love.

Ben and Annie were the same age, and I don't think Charlotte is young enough to be Annie's daughter.

Although I'm not on board with the idea, it would be neat for Daniel and Charlotte's "love" to be like Romeo and Juliet - "Two households, alike in dignity..."

I think you might want to double check your facts on this and repost, because all of the things you're saying we "know" we don't know.

this is all speculation but, for the last couple of episodes I have gotten the feeling that Daniel is withholding a lot of information. He might not be the great nice guy we think he is. I just don't think he is being honest about anything he is saying.  Huh

Seems unlikely that Faraday is Widmore's son - if only for their respective names.  I'm assuming that Faraday's father's last name was, well, Faraday.  Although I have to say if it weren't for that I'd be on board with them being related.  

A more interesting question, is Eloise Penny's mother?  Making her and Daniel at least half-siblings?  So far I don't think we've heard any mention of Penny's mother.  

As for Charlotte - I'm more intruiged by the possibility that she *is* Annie, rather than being Annie's daughter.  Ben and Annie were around the same age, and Charlotte looks too old to be Ben / Annie's daughter for that reason - of course, if some of this time travel mumbo jumbo causes Ben and/or Charlotte to appear in the 'current' time as younger or older than they really are, then all bets are off Smiley

Anyhow, I think you are right that the research team were all chosen because of their connection to the Island.  So far though, Miles relationship to Candle or the island is just speculative so far... but if we go with the theory that the time travelers started experiencing nose bleeds in the order of time spent on the Island, then I think it is very suggestive that Miles has been there for an extended period before too, as I believe that after Charlotte he was the first to start experiencing nose bleeds.

Someone else brought this up, and I highly doubt that Charlotte is (was) Annie because if she was, Ben wouldn't have shot her.

The guy masquerading as Locke? I'm officially calling him Bocaj.  I don't care if anyone else is on board.  Just know that when I use the name Bocaj, I'm speaking of the Anti-Jacob.  Oh...I may call him that too.

It's official, in my book he is Bocaj and/or AJ.  You've been warned Wink

Actually, about Charlotte, I recall now that at the start of season 4, when Ben "outs" Charlotte, he tells us her parents names - David and Jeanette.  Despite Ben's penchant for being loose with the truth, certainly this seems to be what Charlotte thinks are her parents names - she doesn't refute Ben at that point.  Of course, it doesn't mean that Charlotte's parents aren't really some of the people that have been speculated on here and she knows them with different names, or perhaps she was raised by adoptive parents, but its food for thought.
