Think Jeritron nailed it, because they were the candidates. I see it like this - MIB and Jacob are the big players in the game, but the board has it's own rules/power/influence/intelligence. The Island is a character, and as we have seen, not only can the losties be subjected to apparitions, tests etc but so can MIB. He was scared when he saw young Jacob. With that in mind, as well as other things like what we don't know - What the Island is? - it could be also seen (the candidates flashing back in time off the plane) as The Island being fair and giving both Jacob/light and MIB/darkness an equal platform where they execute their own plan. It's like a good thing and a bad thing they went back - bad because MIB gained his loop hole - good because they were able to carry out the bomb, serve to have Jacob win, defeat MIB etc.
