6. Turns out Ben’s handy enough with a handgun to get on with Stringer Bell’s crew. Maybe Widmore should consider bringing in Omar as Abaddon’s replacement…




I'm betting it was Sayid that killed Abbaddon.

Besides Ben admitting to killing him, why would Sayid do it?

Because Ben manipulated him into doing it, just like he manipulated him into assassinating all sorts of people last season? And Ben might have just thought it would confuse/distract Locke too much to tell him that Sayid did it.

Either way, it doesn't really matter too much which one of them actually shot him. Ben was behind it.

Bah! You're right. I forgot that Sayid was working with Ben at first. I guess I don't know when Locke came back, but assumed he returned much after Sayid stopped helping Ben out.

No, you're right. I forgot that Locke had already visited Sayid, and that Sayid had already stopped working for Ben.

The time frame for all that stuff is pretty confusing. And Jack managed to grow out a hell of a beard between the time Locke was hospitalized and his death.

You sure about that?

Sayid told Locke about being manipulated by Ben when Locke found him in the Dominican Republic (or wherever that was). But when did Sayid go back to the States to find Hurley? Like I said, this is confusing, and no, I'm not sure.

I didn't realise while watching that Ilana, Cesar's little partner, was Sayid's handler from the plane.

so, who did lapidus take off in the 3rd canoe with? the stewardess?
also, why did ben not disappear? i guess that's an overarching question with a lot of answers.

I can only think the stewardess or Sun. Sun should've teleported to the island like Jack, Hurley, and Kate but it's still possible that he could've crashed, ran into her, and then taken off.

And Ben didn't disappear because he was never on Oceanic 815. He had to get to the island the hard way.

I've decided Kate didn't bring Aaron with her because she had another visit from Claire that scared the hell out of her. I don't know where he is, though. Maybe with her ex-husband the cop? Maybe (a long shot I know) with Desmond and Penny? From what I've heard Sonya Walger's slated to continue to make appearances so I don't think Penelope's dead.

I wonder if Hurley and Sawyer get to meet the living Roger Workman.

Isn't Roger Workman Ben's drunk daddy?

We were introduced to Horace before in Ben's origin story, right?

I never read any of the Lost blogs, otherwise I'd probably already know the answer to this.

But wasn't he first introduced when Locke came upon him and Horace told Locke he was dead? It may not have been Locke but I didn't think it was in Ben's back story.

Yeah, it was either a dream or vision Locke had: http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Horace_ ... Post-Death

So why did Hugo, Kate and Jack get sent to the 70s, while Locke seems to stay in 2008, even though he was time traveling originally?

And didn't Kate get a phone call from Sawyer at one point? Or was it never confirmed that it was Sawyer on the other end of the line?

The LOST island statue looks A LOT like Anubis aka, the Egyptian god and gatekeeper of the Underworld / Afterlife.

This and the Ankh necklace and the Tunisian "exit point" is all pointing back to ties to ancient Egypt.

I'm pretty sure they're all in 1977 now. We had no real indication of where Locke, Ben, and Cesar are but it wouldn't make sense for them to wind up in a different time than the rest of the airplane people.

5. I’m a bit confused as to how Juliet ended up on mechanic duty in the Dharma motor pool. Do her c-section skills directly translate to cutting out a catalytic converter from a VW microbus?

10. Shouldn’t young boy Ben be amongst the 1974-77 Dharmites? Or did he and his drunk daddy, Uncle Rico, arrive on the island in the late ’70s? Something tells me were going to soon witness an encounter between child Ben and adult Ben. What will become of Independent George?!?


Juliet taking mechanic is probably just because having a fertility scientist on a sunken ship locator wouldn't have made much sense.

If Ben is the same age as Michael Emerson, he should be in his early twenties at the end of the episode with Sawyer and Juliet in bed. So he should definitely be around somewhere. Where we are in relation to "the purge" remains to be seen as is why Richard would go back on the truce and let Ben kill all of Dharma.


They've got to get back to 2009 at some point as Widmore kept warning about the war that was coming but I don't know how they're going to get there unless someone turns the wheel again. And I have no idea where the hell the show is going now. Have Rose and Bernard finally been killed by the Hostiles?

Next week is called 'Namaste'.
