What’s up with you and yors? Acting like the “Nerd” perhaps. Hope all is well

1. Matthew Abbadon: which can also be spelled Abaddon, is roughly translated from the bible as”the angel of the bottomless pit.” I just thought I would throw that out there for everyone to ponder.

2. When Sun showed up on that dock that night a few episodes ago, she was there as a Widemore employee. I think that after she reunites with Jin (hopefully), that her employment to Mr. Widemore is going to play itself out, or there are going to be serious consequences. The whole who left with Frank thing got me thinking about this… there has to be some end game there. Either Sun will get Ben, or Widemore has instructions for her once she gets back to the island.

3. I loved the contrast that was played out with Locke this week. When ever you see him in the “real world” he is a cripple, or helpless. He is again back in a wheelchair. I think this is just further evidence that he is destined to be on this island, and that he is also destined for something far more important that we can think of just yet.

4. I wanted to say that I think the Ben v. Widemore needs to be expanded to Ben v. Widemore v. Richard. I feel like if Ben was truly evil and the island didn’t need him, Richard would have let him die instead of saving his ass on several occasions. Ben is admittedly done several evil things to many of our island friends, but I think however evil these acts may be, they are a part of a much larger endgame that both Richard and Ben are aware of. Richard seems to be that missing link to everything.

I feel like if Widemore was really meant to still be on the island, and was going to play a larger role in everything we would have already seen him with Richard. Well at least more than the one time this season we saw them together. He has money and resources yes, but if he was so desperate to get back on the island, he would have been on that plane with the 6. He just would have.

Walt: My thought was the people surrounding Locke in Walt’s dream are the 316ers. I can’t imagine these people are going to be very happy to find out they are crashed because the Oceanic 5, Ben and Locke needed to get back to the island.

Who ended up when: I think Frank is with some other girl, maybe that flight attendant, and not Sun. My assumption was that once we saw Ben at the end of the episode, all the Oceanic 5 flashed to the past, so that means Sun and Sayid too, they just didn’t end up in the same location as Kate, Hurley and Jack. I think the 5 of them are connected to Juliet, Jin, Sawyer, etc. in time or because of that pesky Constant thing. Locke might have been disconnected from them because he left separately and/or was dead.

Sacrifice: I think Locke had to be willing to sacrifice himself, but also because of the religious connections they have already started establishing, he could not kill himself. Ben talked him down to prevent the suicide and then got more info out of him. Having gotten everything he needed, he took care of it straightaway. If he didn’t get everything he needed, I assume he could have waited.

Ben v. Widemore: I think both are quasi-evil. Both are pretenders to the throne. My thoughts from when we first saw the whiny young Widemore were that he had been chosen as the leader by Richard. He passed the test, but I think he might have been a false leader just like Ben. I agree that Locke is the true leader and the other two just want that back, but they both know they need Locke for something to make that happen. Both are bastards, but Widemore is a bit more charismatic.

Widemore: I too wondered why he wouldn’t just hop on that flight if he knew it was going to get him back to the island, but that assumes he can/wants to return. Ben left and was able to return, so I think Widemore does not want to go back at this time, but eventually does. He’s probably busy running the show, preparing for this war, on the outside.

Caesar: Once I saw him tearing thru the papers I figured he was a Widemore employee. He and the marshal would seem to be the leaders of this new tribe and it would now seem obvious that they are the ones that start shooting at Locke, Juliet and company after they stole one of the boats. He seems like bad news and certainly quick on his feet to pull that flashlight instead of the boomstick.

On Ben – He definitely knew of Eloise Hawking but did not know she was in LA. I think that was new info to Ben.

On Widemore – He says he was theleader of the Others but that’s his story. I’m sure Ben has a different tale to tell. Personally, I think they are both liars aiming to manipulate Locke to their own ends and I think in the end, Locke stays with the island and those two fall by the wayside.

As for Frank, Son, Sayid, etc… I think these are little teases to things we’ll learn in coming episodes. I think this season will build to all parties getting back together in the same timeline.

I also think Ben killed Locke when he heard Eloise’s name. It is strange because on one hand he tells him he is important and not hang himself and then he kills him. After he cleans up he says goodbye like he is never going to see him again. Then why bring his body on the plane. Jack had already committed to going back and Ben was the one who told him to take Locke with them. You wonder if Ben will be expecting Locke there when he wakes up or will be surprised? It is so hard to tell what his angle is.

Also, Eloise seem not to like Ben. Her comment when asked if he was telling the truth as “probably not”. So it seem weird that she is helping him. Although she seems to think there is a greater good to getting everyone back to the island and has to put up with Ben as he is the one gathering the folks to go back. A necessary evil.

I also wonder why Widemore would put a proxy on the plan and not go back himself? If that person Caeser even works for Widemore…I agree Ed, Ben would be either dead or at least tied up if he knew who he was.

On a comedy note and the reason I like Hurley…when he thinks Locke is dead because he has been seeing and talking to Charlie and Ecko and asks the nurse am I talking to dude in a wheelchair right now?
