Sayid shot young Ben!!! It was shocking! It was unexpected! It provided the perfect cliffhanger; did Sayid change the past and "kill Hitler." My guess is no. The next episode is titled "Whatever Happened, Happened." Ben was shot by Sayid because he was always shot by Sayid. Because Ben is in the future, he survives in the past. You can't change the past.
My theory is this: Once again, Ben is going to be dying, and Jack will have to operate on him and save his life. Once again, Jack will be faced with the dillemma: to save Ben or to let him die? But he will know that he saves Ben, because he saves Ben in the future. And future Ben knows Jack will save him because Jack already saved him once. "Loop, dude."
But how will Jack, who is believed to be a Workman, be chosen to operate on Ben? Probably the same way mechanic Juliet delivered baby Ethan. It just happens.
That's just my theory. I may or may not be right. But it is interesting.
