What's everyone's guesses for the endgame situation?

So it seems that the lines are beginning to blur.
It seems that it happened with Charlie as he saw Claire in his vision.
At the end when he asks for that from the limo driver and basically states he needs to show everyone... yikes!
I thought tonight's episode was amazing and they have finally got me jacked for the final few episodes!

Not only that, but we can see that the new timeline was never meant to be. It seems that Jack did not save the day when he had the bomb blown up.
Also, I still don't know how Desmond can save the day. Why did he go with Sayid, anyway?

So are the flashbacks in the next episodes still going to be character-centric or will Desmond just be going around meeting everyone?

I'm still not convinced that it doesn't qualify as Jack saving the day.

He said it himself, he has to show them...
As with many things in the flash sideways time, I think that Penny meeting Desmond at the stadium is just one more example of similar things, but slightly altered, for the viewer, to really hit home the interconnection of the two timelines.
I think that Faraday/Widmore's notebook is probably more telling than any other clue, so need to see if there's a good pic of this online (since my wife erased it right after we watched...ugghhh....)

Is there a connection here in people getting what they've always wanted?

As for the "them" in the flash-sideways timeline (as this is where Desmond was, when he asked for the manifest), I'm assuming he expects he'll recognize the names, and then try and get them all together and explain his revelation of his new split-time self...or at least as much as he can piece together...in his FS incarnation.

Sawyer suspects something about Kate...so that's one example.
Oh, and found a pic of the notebook page...first image...
EDIT: I thought it looked familiar...It's an Einstein Minkowski diagram...

What are your thoughts on the characters being served what they desired in the previous timelines?
It'll be interesting to see what each of them "see" in their blurring of the timelines.

As for getting what they wanted, not so sure they did... Jacks son doesn't like him, Kate is still on the run, Claire is still confused, Sawyer is still frustrated about his parents' killer, etc.

In getting what they want though, who is to say it doesn't mean they lose something they didn't want to give up on?
I'm not saying it made the "perfect" storyline for them. But in each of the details that are different, he seemed to provide something they wanted in the previous.
I don't think they're going to have Desmond go around to each character. There isn't nearly enough time remaining to accommodate this.
But I do think it is going to play into it for some of the key characters. In seeing how they react to it and whether or not it impacts them back on the island will be interesting.
