 Yup...she was a kid and getting ready to steal a lunchbox or something and got caught. Jacob bailed her out.
My husband and I have decided the island is basically a big game of chess. Two sides -- one light, one dark, and two kings (Jacob and the Man in Locke). The two kings can't take out each other, so they have to use the other pieces on the board (our Losties) to do it for them. Or something.
