An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

As revealed by Ilana, a candidate is a person who is capable of replacing Jacob as the protector of The Island and, in particular, The Source. The exact criteria of what constitutes a candidate has not been revealed, however, they seem to have a special protected status among The Others, as evinced by Dogan's insistence that the remaining candidates remain inside The Temple where they will be safe. Ilana notes that there are only six candidates remaining in the episode "Ab Aeterno", however, since that revelation two candidates, Sayid and either Sun or Jin, have died, bringing the total number of remaining candidates to three. They are Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, James "Sawyer" Ford and Jack Shephard.

  • As revealed by Ilana, a candidate is a person who is capable of replacing Jacob as the protector of The Island and, in particular, The Source. The exact criteria of what constitutes a candidate has not been revealed, however, they seem to have a special protected status among The Others, as evinced by Dogan's insistence that the remaining candidates remain inside The Temple where they will be safe. Ilana notes that there are only six candidates remaining in the episode "Ab Aeterno", however, since that revelation two candidates, Sayid and either Sun or Jin, have died, bringing the total number of remaining candidates to three. They are Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, James "Sawyer" Ford and Jack Shephard. All the currently surviving candidates (and several past candidates) have made physical contact with Jacob while off the Island. He put his hand on Hurley's shoulder in a taxi-cab outside of prison after he was released. He touched Sawyer's hand when he gave him a pen at his parents' funeral. He touched Jack's hand by a vending machine when he gave him a candy-bar after his first solo surgery. It is unknown if Jacob's touch is the criteria for assigning a candidate, marking the candidate, protecting the candidate, or if there is another reason for the physical contact.
