SPOILER: More on that character who won't be in season 5 but returns for season 6

Stop reading if you don't like even the slightest of spoilers.

Michael Ausellio at Entertainment Weekly reports that he was suspicious whether Claire, played by Emilie de Ravin, would really be back for Season 6 after confirming that she'd be gone for the upcoming season.

He talked to executive producer Carlton Cuse and was told:

"Claire is a wonderful part of the show and the audience can rest assured that they will see [her] again on Lost."

"It's just all part of Damon and my grand plan for how the story is going to be best told. And we don't want someone to be on the show and not be serviced well. The story that we're telling this year is going in some other directions, but we'll circle back around to include Emilie we think in a very exciting way."

What do you think lies ahead for Claire? Losties Island already knows some of you think Claire is dead and others think she's alive.
