LOST Explained - The Theory of Everything: Part Three (The Rules, The Others & The Candidates)

#LOSTExplained #LOST #LOSTtvshow #WeHaveToGoBack This channel's definitive explanation of the mysteries and mythology from the seminal TV series LOST (2004). Part Three covers the nature of the game between Jacob and the Man in Black. We shall explore how "the rules" work and what they specifically cover; the history and ethics of The Others and how their society functions; the nature and purpose of The Candidates and how they were selected; and how the Man in Black "claims" and "infects" people.
