Fantastic work once again, congratulations.
Didn't Carlton and Damon once said that the season finale would be about Jack vs. Locke? This indicates that Locke isn't dead.
Lost is getting better and better and that's awsome.

Great analysis! Good thing it was a slow day at work or else I would have to quit, start up, quit, start up and to get through it and I hate it when that happens. The producers pretty much all but said Locke is alive in their last podcast. It is amazing that I still don't know pretty much anything that was going on that episode, but I definately think it is important to the show and mythology of the show. Can't wait for the finale, which the producers promised will set up the framework for next season.

I agree with the thought that Annie died in childbirth sometime before Ben killed his dad and helped orchestrate the purge. With Annie gone, there'd be nothing left in Dharma for Ben.
I read a great theory somewhere - I think in Jeff Jensen's stuff on EW - that ties in Emily's death in chlidbirth. That Ben has somehow "imprinted" his psyche on the island, and that's why women are dying now... perhaps Annie was the first. That could explain why Juliet's medical work hasn't done anything to help save the women from dying. If it's Ben's psychic problem manifested by the island, medicine certainly won't solve it.

Whoa - that's mind-alteringly deep. |

It is funny you mentioned Mission Impossible III. The other day I caught the ending and was watching the credits and at the very end they gave their thanks to a bunch and corporations and low and behold the last company on the list was the Hanso Foundation. I found that to be awfully strange. Did you or anyone else ever catch that?

Good catch! Sci-Fi channel confirms this: http://www.scifi.com/sfw/screen/sfw12608.htmlAbrams directed MI III. |

Brian, once again a superb analysis of probably the freakiest, most puzzling Lost episode yet. Thanks for your hard work and sore fingers. Just a few comments:

Attached are my very rough, guesstimate-ish mock-ups of where Locke got hit. I'd say he definitely lost some intestines, but his stomach, lungs (not shown), and kidney were missed.

Oooo, gut-shot - meaty, painful, but NOT immediately fatal. If he's lucky he could have up to a few days without treatment - enough time for the Island to heal him? Not sure - enough time for someone to find him? I reckon so.

Everything in the universe denies nothing - to suggest an ending is the one absurdity.
