**UPDATED** With HQ Versions. Thanks to Deej, Lyly and Sarah for sending these in. Also, it looks like some came from DocArzt, so thanks to him as well.
Here is the initial look at the first set of promotional pictures for first part of the season finale. Something to note is that Miles and Aaron are in the pics, but no Claire, Sawyer or Hurley.
Also, the previous episodes have had two sets of promo pics released and I am sure we will get more for this episode soon, so keep checking back for additional pics.

they are kind of small......
I'm guessing Claire didn't make oit back, as Sun( looks like her) is holding Aaron.
Also, i have a feeling Juliet is confronting Jack about something he said in his "surgery"(which hes clearly recovered from...:P) Just my thoughts.
syaid is gonna whoop daneils ass. poor aaron. :( im goona cry...
btw doc artz has decoded bens door!!!! if someone could get it up over here!!!???? hint hint odi
Yep, definitely Miles is the one to take Aaron to the beach... maybe his insistence to help Claire with the baby is because he's certainly feeling danger around her. I still hope nothing bad happens to Claire or Sawyer.
If Sayid touches Daniel, he could break : (
Where are Desmond and Michael?
OHOHOHOH!
Where can I find Doc Artz's door decode?!
OHOHOHOH!
Where can I find Doc Artz's door decode?!

spoilers at doc artz blog!!!
Sayid back on beach duty. Hell yeah.
Apparently the symbols on Ben's secret door boil down to:
"To summon protection".
Where's Desmond?? If Sayid is back?
My God Char-LOTTE go to the tanning bed. No Claire in sight...
Thanks I am Jack's Eye for the heads up, I have all the details since episode night in one post posted on my blog . So anyone that wants to see the full breakdown you can check it out there.
However, I have posted Doc's details in the screencaps section of this site here:
http://losteastereggs.blogspot.com/2008/04/update-translation-of-symbols-on-bens.html
Holy Mother of Pearl :D where is Claire and Saywer? i'll take this as a good sign that Claire is alive and that the reason she's separated from Aaron is not because of death, i'm sure Miles will lie to them though..but i'd think by now we'd have spoilers that claire bites the dust. i hope she doesn't. i realize i might be in the minority but claire is one of my favorite characters, probably just because when the first ep i watched of Lost was hers so hehe they can't kill her off nor Sawyer!
you are very welcome odi!!!! ;D
So we're missing Desmond, Claire, Sawyer, Locke, Ben and Hurley. Wonder how Hurley gathers back with the rest of the Oceanic 6. The suspense is killing me!
Charlotte is that rarity in tv land-- a natural redhead. We don't tan. if she went to a tanning bed, you'd be strapping on your lobster bib.
I'm glad Aaron is at the beach, even if he is with Miles. This destroys my "Locke and Ben babynapping for Jacob" fears, and also adds more fuel to the theory that it's Claire in the cabin in the promo pix for 8.11... I think that would be awfully cool.
For those requesting the hieroglyphics translation, I copied and pasted from DocArtz' blog until Dark posts the full article.
Top Line - "to summon", "time to summon" or "to summon time"
In this instance, there is one word that can help us determine the way the hieroglyphic is meant to be read and unfortunately it is the only crystal clear word here.
nas - "to summon" or "to call"
Nas or "to summon" is represented by the man with the outstretched arm (see diagram above) and the reason why it is so clear is the simple fact that the word is a determinative. A determinative is the way that the Egyptians associated meaning and pronunciations to their words.
So, "to summon" by itself would appear as n (the squiggle) on top, with a and s underneath, followed by the picture of the man holding his arm over something. This may mean that the hieroglyphics here are meant to be read from right to left, but it is impossible to say which is the right direction.
ra - "time"
The word "time" is an ideograph (hieroglyphic meant to express an idea), and is represented by a circle with a dot in the middle of it. Since the hieroglyphic is somewhat obscured, we can only guess that this is what was meant to be shown.
Second Line - "Protection", "Power" or "Strength"
The second line does not have anything that could determine direction and is a combination of ideographs and phonetics. There are an infinite amount of possibilities as to what this line means, so I'll give the phonetic and idea of each hieroglyphic and let you theorize away!
hen - "master" or "priest"
Hen as a noun would translate roughly into master, but could be easily be seen as priest. This could mean the chamber is for holy men only or could be referring to the one who is control of this island?
"man with weapon" - "power", "strength", or "protection"
The second line would seem to be anchored by this hieroglyphic, because the phrase "to summon protection" would make the most sense. After Ben left the door covered in soot, smokey was right behind him. Is the chambers purpose to summon smokey?
"container" or "stone container"
This hieroglyphic is the most confusing, could this mean that summoning smokey involves some kind of container?
anx - "life"
This symbol is not an hieroglyphic, but there is a hieroglyphic extremely similar to it. The anx hieroglyphic is a cross much like the one here, but has a looped top. Again this seems to be referring to the ritual that would summon smokey, maybe giving him life or a sacrifice of life is needed to summon him?
The Whole Enchilada - "To summon protection"
The simplest translation of these hieroglyphics is "to summon protection", but there are almost endless ways they can be translated. Here are a few to get those theories flowing:
"Time to summon strength"
"To summon time protection" or "To summon time power"
"Time summons the power of life"
Thomas said... Where's Desmond?? If Sayid is back? Tuesday, April 29, 2008 1:47:00 AM
=========
I'd assume he'll go through massive time-warp again if he comes back. He'll stay on the frighter.
But then again, it doesn't seem he makes it off the island.
So... who knows what happens to Desmond.
wow. . . not seeing Desmond is worrisome.
I'm surprised that no one has mentioned it, but this may be the first actual confirmation we have that the survivors on the boat wind up going back to the island, rather than the rest of the Oceanic 6 going to the freighter. This points strongly to a third party or mechanism being responsible for the 6 getting off the island . . . and bad news for anyone left on the boat with Michael's bomb.
What's more, the promo pictures for the following episode show Lapidus back on the freighter, helping Michael. Frank is clocking up some serious chopper miles!
Henry Ian Cusick thinks Desmond will stay on the island but he was just speculating so who knows.
So we have five of the Oceanic 6 in one place now. There's gonna be some serious separation anxiety happening soon - Jack from Juliet, Aaron from Claire, Sun from Jin, etc...
Wow. Sayid is back at the beach. Great.
Is Sun and Kate arguing??!! In the first pic of them Kate is holding Aaron and it looks like she is keeping him away from Sun while Sun seems upset. In the next pic it looks like Sayid have taken over Suns role and is trying to talk to Kate while she seems to hold on to Aaron, and in the last pic Sun is suddenly holding Aaron and Kate s now where to be seen.
What the hell is going on here!? Does this have something to do with why Hurley and Sun doesn’t want to see the rest of Oceanic 6?
That's it, Kate has her hands on Aaron. Poor Aaron :(
Jin is studying some plans... to go look for Sawyer and Claire, maybe? And that's why we saw Juliet hand him a gun in one of the promos?
Yay, Sayid is back! Now he can take care of Keamy :)
Thanks Odi!
Desmond isn't dead. Don't worry about it.
But where are Sawyer and Claire? I want to stop reading spoilers but I'm crazy waiting for a clue about Sawyer's fate specially.
SawyerRules, I noticed the last shot in the promo for this week [they actually showed a longer shot during DWTS, last night] where Sawyer is talking to Miles and he turns around and looks in shock like he can't believe what he's seeing. There's also a promo pic of Sawyer looking like he's about to hit Miles with the butt of his gun after Claire disappears when he turns around looking at something.
Here's my spec: I think Charlie appears to Claire and lures her to Jacob's cabin. And I'm wondering if Sawyer's mother appears to him and leads him away to the cabin, too. In the pic with Locke, Claire looks like she's out of it sitting on the floor playing with what looks like a doll.
Darlton said it was going to start really getting weird on the island.
Maybe Sawyer and Claire are the last two names on Jacob's list and he's going to acquire them to keep them safe from the freighter fiends, since he doesn't care about the rest of them. I still think the island protected both of them from harm during the attack.
Anyway, I got a feeling that this may turn out to be one weird creepy episode.
All my favourite characters are missing!
Where is Locke, Sawyer, Desmond, Ben and Hurley????
I love to not know anything about them, it makes everything more interesting and intriguing (because I can't be away of the spoilers!!!)So, good for me.
Because I missed the Suprise factor!
Locke, Sawyer, Ben & Hurley would have featured heavily in the prior episode so there wouldn't be a whole lot of them in this.
Desmond's been AWOL for a few now though :(
Thanks for the HQ versions ODI :)
Wow, are these people having a game of pass the baby or what?
I don’t think O6 will leave with the freighter. If they would all the bad people would go back to the mainland and tell Widmore where the island is. I’m guessing Michael will blow it up.
But this might mean Desmond is gonna die as it looks like he stayed on the boat and I so don’t want this to happen.
And I have no idea how far you can fly with a chopper but I think not that far, so I am voting for a third party involved. I know it doesn’t look like it but I am still thinking the third party is Ben. It is always him ;)
@of dark skies
thanks for the translation
Wow. There are so many WTFs attached to these pictures, I don't even know where to start.
Why do Sun and Kate appear to be fighting over the baby?
Why does it look like MILES brought Aaron to the beach?
How did Sayid get back to the beach?
What happened to Jack's appendix?
Is Jin reading a map? of what?
What is the item Dan appears to be passing to Jack, and then to Sayid?
Why is everyone standing around with their hands on their hips? Does Shar-Lot EVER not have her hands on her hips?
If Hurley/Sawyer/Claire/Locke/Ben are still in the jungle, where and in what combos? And how does Hurley make it back in time to become one of the 6?
Head. Hurts. Must. Stop. Reading. Spoileeerrrrsss.........
I think its actually fairly obvious where sawyer/claire are.
They must somehow stumble upon danielle/karls maybe only one of them dead body(ies?) and then find the temple.
Since the temple is hush hush. No promo pics until its revealed.
Thats my hunch anyway.
the thing that dans handing to jack is the sat phone.
Yep, I knew something was up when the small pics showed Sun with Aaron. Sun and Sayid are arguing with Kate over something concerning Aaron. WTF is that crazy girl up to?!
Doesn't look like Claire has much luck then.
Sun suits the baby in arms :)
Juliet looks quite hot here.
i'm going to go with--Aaron was crying and making too much noise when sawyer and claire and miles were in the woods, keamy was coming for them, so miles volunteered to run away really fast with Aaron, since claire couldn't run (helloooo a house fell on her) so he took off with the babe, and sawyer and claire are coming along shortly. YAY problem solved.
you're welcome everyone.
all these photos were taken in a short period of time, so my theory works.
i'm still going to believe claire lives at least till the end of season 4 and you will not convince me otherwise.
Actually, Sarah, your theory doesn't work if you take a look at the promo pics for 10 and 11.
Claire appears to disappear while Miles and Sawyer are sleeping, apparently leaving her baby behind. And she ends up in Jacob's cabin.
I imagine Sawyer has gone looking for her, or whatever got Claire, got him next.
I too think Claire lives...but I'm not so sure I see Miles in baby-savior mode, especially after Sawyer's restraining order comment. I like Miles though...and a heroic turn on his part would be almost as thrilling as Sawyer's in the last ep!
Since Miles seems so interested in Aaron is there a possibility that he is lying and telling them that Sawer and Claire died at the barracks and thats why 06 have no problem with taking the kid with them?
Michael Emerson said in a recent interview that John Locke has to pay smth to get smth from Jacob, and I think it is Claire, so that she's not seen in any of these promo pics - or the producers don't want us to see her in the finale promo pics so that we can make guesses about her absence.
Is that a map over the island? And if it is, is Jin trying to find the cabin or Sawyer and Claire?
yeah...i guess i didn't look at those promos.
dang.
I think the baby is at the beach with Miles cause something strange happens to Claire, I don't think she died. She leaves Sawyer, Miles and the baby and Sawyer go after...Then its a mystery but Jacob is arounding ;)
At the pics: Is Kate fighting for the baby? OMG
I wonder what Sayid is handing Daniel and where is Desmond.
I dont know why but I would have preferred to see Aaron stay with Sun...
I don't know why either but I agree. No offense Kate ;)
yeah really, aaron's better off with sun than kate.
my theory: claire wakes up at night to find aaron missing so she in a panic goes off to look for him w/out telling. sawyer wakes up, argues with miles for not telling him(since he's awake before sawyer) so sawyer looks for claire. then we find out that Miles had taken aaron and like hid him(ok now my theory sounds stupid...) and uh..takes him back to the beach and gives him to kate or sun..for no reason. ok forget my theory :D point was suppose to be- miles is not to be trusted
We may be reading too much into the pictures re: kate and sun with the baby. Now that we have the bigger versions, it looks like Sayid is comforting Kate, not arguing with her. It seems like Miles approaches Sun and redshirts; Sun takes the baby and comforts it. Later, Kate has the baby while talking with smaller groups of people.
It could be as minor as Sun's arms getting tired and passing the baby to Kate for a while. Nonetheless, showing Aaron with Sun and Kate does raise the question: Sun is married and an expectant mother; she's a more likely adoptive parent. Why Kate? Did Claire ask for Kate to take the baby? Does the baby respond to Kate? Is Sun worried about her life back in Korea? We'll get our answers in the next weeks, I imagine.
I don't know why but I have this feeling that in the pic with Sayid/Kate/Aaron he is trying to persuade her to go looking for Claire and Sawyer. That may explain why Sun has Aaron. Neither Kate nor Sayid are in the second to last pic. Just throwing it out there.
I agree that it looks like Sayid is comforting Kate.
And the arguing...could be. She also could the baby just shift on her hip.
Everyone ever holded one of Aarons age for a while knows it can become a little uncomfortable. And that is exactly the movement you make then ;)
Why Kate and not Sun?
I think because of the obvious. Sun is asian. And Kate says the baby is hers and I believe she is doing it to protect him.
Sanna, that's an interesting thought re. Miles telling the beachies that Sawyer and Claire died at the barracks. It could help explain what appears to be strange/emotional behaviour from Kate, as she would obviously be extremely distraught(especially at the loss of Sawyer) and protecting the oprhaned Aaron - who she helped bring into the world - serves as some kind of anchor to cling on to, giving her something to focus on and a sense of purpose in a time of anguish.
lostaficionado, flyingv & carly those are also interesting points too (started typing my comment about 20 mins ago but then the phone rang).
Hvaeing another look at the pics I can see that Sayid could also be comforting her as well as trying to reason with her. And she could very well be shifting Aaron when talking to Sun, or indeed passing him to her.
@Glinda
Exactly! If Miles tells them that everyone died at the barracks it would explain why Kate takes Aaron and leaves and why she didn't wanna go back in TTLG.
It would also explain why Abbadon chose to visit Hurley of all people and ask "Are they still alive?". Hurley is the only one of the Oceanic 6 that really have the answer since 1) he was at the barracks, 2) He went to Jacobs cabin with Ben and Locke and maybe he saw Claire (and Sawyer?) there but couldn't do anything to help them get back to the beach.
I know I'm reading way too much into all this but it is possible I got something right;)
1st pic of Juliet is hot!! Sun & Jin appear in a lot of these pics.
I think Jin is trying to figure out where Sawyer & Claire are.
Great to see Sayid back on the beach. Does that mean Desmond is still on the freighter with Michael?
I know why...because Kate is insane!
^^ That too. :D
There's no Desmond, Locke or Ben either!
Jack looks so good on this pictures! Where his pain? Is he good so soon?
And WHERE IS DESMOND????
I need to see that he is ok how we can see Jack is ok!
Jin is looking very intense and concerned in all those pictures. Anyone have the feeling he's going to end up doing something awfully heroic?
Sanna, ITA: if she thinks Sawyer is dead and her other love interest gets off the island with her and is safe amd sound back in LA (or as safe and sound as you can be with an alcohol and oxycodene addiction!) then she won't have much to go back for, espcially now she has Aaron to consider and she knows how dangerous the Island is.
The thing that is still bugging me is who/what makes Kate actually pretend to be Aaron's real mother once they arrive back in the real world? Surely she would have calmed down a bit by then and at least tried to find some of Aaron's family back in Australia. The obvious answer is that is has something to do with Ben and his knowledge of Aaron as 'special', esp. if he is the one that ends up getting the O6 off the island.
And the thing that is really bugging me is how does Kate explain the existence of an 8-week old baby when didn't appear even appear to be pregnant when she borded the plane?! It is obv. going to be connected to the time-warping/time differential between the island and the outside world.
Andy, I think he's going to go looking for Sawyer and Claire and Hurley. I'd love a reunion between the Rafties [Sawyer/Jin/Michael] somehow.
I fear for Daniel's safety being near Sayid! He'll go to give him a handshake and accidentally kill him!
^
Yeah, hopefully Sayid dosen't jump on the 'Grab Faraday by the neck and demand answers' bandwagon because I don't know how much more he or his shirt can take ;)
It looks more like Sayid is giving him something. What is that in his hand?
how is sayid back? & what would make him leave desmond on the freighter knowing what he knows? why is miles with the beach people sans everyone else? why is charlotte still alive? how is aaron there also, something bad must have happened for him to be in miles custody. where are they going to on the map? the orchid? can't wait to find out how the 6 leave
