I managed the watch this episode again recently, and I particularly wanted to watch Hurley's encounter with Jacob..

When Hurley spots 'Christian Shepherd' in Jacob's chair..just before infact, a strange bubbling noise can be heard. I've never heard such a noise in all of my Lost experience, and didn't notice it first time round.

I think this noice basically signifies (and backs up my previous theory) that Jacob was changing character - that is, he is able to 'morph' into the image of islanders..particularly dead islanders (imho). Infact, that is how I would describe the sound - a 'morphing' sound.

The fact that Jacob (or the image of Jacob that we were presented with in 3.20) suddenly appears right up against the window adds a slight complexity to this - how can jacob be in the chair one minute and at the window in a flash? Perhaps Jacob can teleport (within certain confines?), or perhaps there's somethig special about Jacob's chair? Sounds silly I know, but there's something about that chair.

Anyway, my main point is about the noice that is heard just before Hugo gets a good sight of Christian - anyone else hear it and have any ideas on what it could mean/signify?
