Just for Fun

Just for fun, here's a guess at the episode titles and centricity for Season Five. I have assumed one centric episode per character, the likelihood of which is just about zero. Obviously the likelihood of any of these coming to fruition is nil, although I hold out hope for an episode called "Our Mutual Friend" featuring Jack, Claire, and Christian:

Season Premiere: They're Here (Ilana)
#2: Time Out of Mind (Desmond)
#3: Across the Universe (Jin/Sun)
#4: Graceland (Claire)
#5: Sympathy for the Devil (Locke)
#6: Pilot, pt. 3 (Lapidus)
#7: The Eye (The Monster)
#8: Eternal Sunshine (Alpert)
#9: Whispers (Miles)
#10: Destiny's Child (Ben)
#11: Checkmate (Black Robe)
#12: Great Expectations (Hurley)
#13: Sidney (Sawyer)
#14: The Once and Future King (Jacob)
#15: All About Eve (Kate)
Series Finale: Our Mutual Friend (Jack)
