Lost Fans have been wondering since May of last year how John Locke - a.k.a. Jeremy Bentham - came to rest in that coffin, as shown in the Season Four finale.

Well, now we know, and while plenty of unanswered questions remain, no Lost spoilers could have prepared viewers for some of the events of last night's episode.

The episode was called "The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham," though it could have also worked in reverse, as the Island has apparently reincarnated Locke.
