So, it has to be someone Kate does not care about but Jack does. Juliette, maybe?

Here's my take:  The person in the coffin is one of the Oceanic Six.  Jack's flash-forward to his shell of a person with that awful beard is in the future in relation to when he sees Hugo in the gym at his mental hospital.  He's been following the fates of the other five all those years and learns one has died.  So the person in the coffin can't be Ben (like I had thought last year), because he was not on the flight.

My guess:  The Oceanic Six are Hugo (Hurley), Jack, Kate (as we know), Claire, her baby, and Locke.  Locke is in the casket.  Locke is the "He" Jack is referring to when he pleads with Kate that "He wants us to go back to the island."  And the "he" waiting for Kate is the fiance she took off on right before she went on the lam and ultimately ended up on the flight - Nathan Fillon is the actor.  Sadly, this means that my beloved Sawyer is either still on the island or dead.  :(

Then again, keep in mind that it's said there are three more seasons planned.  What if all this transpires just this season, and that next season, the remaining five (or at least Jack) go back to the island to save (or live with) the others?

opinionista:
The coffin occupant could be one of the so called rescue team. I just don't see Locke leaving the island. Not after all he has done to ensure his stay there. Also, why would he go back? He has no one to go back to, and no life either. And Kate would've gone to his funeral. Like I said in other post, I think it is someone Kate does not care about.

And Barb your theory about Kate returning with her old finace makes a lot of sense.

Kelda:
Well Callum (My other half) says he thinks that the six are hurley, jack, kate, sun, jin and Sayid and the coffin occupant is someone else.

when i said - why do you think its Sayid he said 'it just is'! So I'm not sure what his theory is!

ednbarby:
My husband thinks Michael is in the coffin.  I guess that would make him one of the Oceanic Six.

We also have to wonder - does Jack know, in the flash forwards, that Claire is his half-sister?  And did she make it off the island or not?

I'm waiting with bated breath for the next installment, when they reveal who the next member of the Six is.

Kelda:
well Cal was right - one is Sayid!
