Did it looks like to you that Jacob did nothing to protect himself?

Would you say Jacob did every thing to avoid being stabbed?

would you believe that Ben's Failure to stab/kill Jacob was true outcome that the MIB wanted to happen?

IMO, it just seems that If I were Jacob, I'd just smack Ben around... and in that last scene. just the opposite happened..
I was pulling for Jacob not to be harmed/killed I think 99% on the viewer were, Right?

I smell a mis-direction here.. whatcha think?

I completely agree with you. Since there's no doubt Jacob is Christian, it's almost as though he was helping MIB with his plan to kill himself. It's very strange that he would do that unless he has a very great plan in mind.

I agree Captain. I think Jacob resigned himself to the fact that he was going to die and he has his "pieces" in place in order to counter.

i too agree, i belive it may be close to a jesus christ thing, by haveing himself killed without the mib thinking jacob set it up, is just a set up for a resurrection.
