NBC played up the "3" mysteries and overplayed it apparently according to the most recent interviews with the writers. Two of them were - what happened to the children (sort of), we know they are still on the island. The second one was what Jack's tatoo means which wasn't even correct - see http://www.buddytv.com/articles/lost/more/lost-stranger-in-a-strange-lan-4358.aspx

Third was apparently that the island they were own is only for experiments - that they are living on the same island as the Losties.

I am excited Jack is going to Otherville though - imagine his shock when he sees it! I also think Jack and Juliet might "hook-up" - UGH! I think Juliet is a snake-in-the-grass. Was Cindy going to "watch" Juliet's trial? I enjoyed the introduction of Isabel - what a great new character (unlike Niki and Paulo... blech).

It's pretty clear from the ABC episode descriptions that a lot of answers are coming within the next three episodes - take a read of them:

Episode 3.10: Tricia Tanaka is Dead (Hurley-centric)
Airdate: February 28, 2007

Hurley's discovery of an old, wrecked car on the island leads him on a mission of hope not only for himself, but for a fellow survivor in need of some faith. Meanwhile, Kate and Sawyer reunite with their fellow castaways, but Kate is still torn about leaving Jack behind with "The Others."

Guest starring are Mira Furlan as Danielle Rousseau, Rodrigo Santoro as Paulo, Kiele Sanchez as Nikki, Lillian Hurst as Carmen Reyes, Billy Ray Gallion as Randy, Cheech Marin as David Reyes, Caden Waidyatilleka as young Hurley, Suzanne Krull as Lynn Karnoff and Sung Hi Lee as Tricia Tanaka.

Episode 3.11: Enter 77 (Sayid-centric)
Airdate: March 7, 2007

Locke, Sayid and Kate investigate a strange structure and its mysterious inhabitant. Meanwhile, Sawyer competes in a ping-pong competition to get back his belongings.

Guest starring are Mira Furlan as Danielle Rousseau, Rodrigo Santoro as Paulo, Kiele Sanchez as Nikki, April Grace as Ms. Klugh, Andrew Divoff as Mikhail Bakunin, Francois Chau as Dr. Marvin Candle, Shaun Toub as Sami, Anne Bedian as Amira, Taiarii Marshall as waiter and Eyad Elbitar as Arabic man.

Episode 3.12: Par Avion (Claire-centric)
Airdate: March 14, 2007

Charlie exhibits peculiar behavior when Claire has an idea that could get everyone rescued; tensions mount between Sayid and Locke as they continue their journey to rescue Jack.

---

My take given the above:

Par Avion - I think we might finally find out if Claire is Jack's sister. Claire was interviewed and said this episode's flashbacks will take place when she is much younger - could she be on a plane ride (par avion) with Jack's father or a trip to see him?

Other give-away - we know that Charlie is still alive three episodes from now. We also know that Sayid, Locke and Kate are trying rescue Jack. The ABC season three press release: "After the death of Eko, Locke’s obsession to uncover the secrets of the island leads Sayid to believe that his intentions may not be in the best interests of his fellow survivors."

So Locke and Sayid will be clashing again over Locke's "destiny" on the island - that always make for wonderful tension during an episode - I look forward to it :) It would also appear they will find the station that is home to "eye patch" man - hopefully it answers that question!

I wonder what Claire's idea will be for rescue?

Entertainment Weekly released the description for the next episode after these three:

Episode 3.13: Title Unknown (Locke-centric, unconfirmed)
Airdate: March 21, 2007

[Scenes from episode 13 include] Juliet pushing Ben in a wheelchair, and Jack cheerfully lobbing a football to his sworn enemy Mr. Friendly. "Everyone should be wondering what the hell is going on," explains Fox during a break. "Has Jack been converted by the Others? Drugged? Is he pretending? All sorts of scenarios could be happening here." We will find out how Locke ended up in a wheelchair. "I was afraid it'd be anticlimactic," says O'Quinn. "It's not. It's pretty stunning. You're gonna go, 'Man, no wonder this guy wants to stay here!'" Also, the castaways discover that the Others possess a submarine. Source: Entertainment Weekly

Holy crap!

The producers have stated that over the next few episodes we will be gearing up for huge revelations and actions.

Do you think that Locke, Sayid and Kate will end up in Otherville? And what happens if they do? Has Jack joined the Others? Will he finally know what the Others wanted him? Will we see the children and find out more of what happened to them?

I'm really looking forward to getting more answers but as usual they will only lead to more questions and confusion!
