So. Unlocke's last line to Sawyer in "The Substitute" is something about their just leaving the Island, like Lenny and George perhaps. But we can be sure that they won't just "leave." (And Sawyer is one of the least inclined to just leave, anyway.) Clearly Unlocke has some scheme in mind that makes it possible for him to leave, possibly getting a replacement like unto the one he claims Jacob wanted from among the "candidates."
Here's a possible scenario that might turn up:
In "What Kate Does" Sawyer gets a gun and forces his way out of the Temple. Dogen appeals to Sawyer to stay, and when that doesn't work, sends people to bring him back. One assumes that Dogen's figured out that Sawyer's a valuable candidate even though his name may or may not have been on Hurley's guitar-ankh list.
In addition, we know that if there's someone that the Temple-ars DON'T want in their Temple, it's Smokey, as witness their barricades on the doors and their spreading of ash.
So the Temple-ars don't want Smokey--
But they do want Sawyer--
Can you say, "Trojan Horse?"
(It just seems fair that the Iliad should get a little mention after all the Odyssey-stuff from Season 5.)

Well, I guessed wrong on this one.
But I think my guess made sense given the available info given by the show's producers: i.e, that circles of ash could balk Old Smokey.
Instead, March 2's episode SUNDOWN suddenly outta-nowhere posits that DOGEN was the only thing keeping Smokey at bay.
I'm calling shenanigans if I don't get an explanation soon, LOST guys!
