So the leaving the island makes you suicidal but incapable of committing suicide?
Once leaving the island Hurley sees dead Charlie, Michael sees dead Libby – some kind of connection by guilt? They both felt guilt over the deaths – inadvertently in Charlie’s case and advertently in Libby’s?
And not yet another LIST!
Except for the absence of flashing lights, wasn’t the scene with Ben at the mic reminiscent of Professor Marvel/the Wizard of Oz at the mic manipulating others behind his curtain?
Did anyone else think that Mr. Friendly's "friend" Arturo looked a lot like the guy getting beaten up in the video that Ben showed Locke?
Mr. Friendly also stated "I don't make it back to the mainland too often" - - sounds like Ben isn't the only one to make trips off the island...
Tonight's 'flashback' is the first one in memory where the character has been telling a story to another character. As we all know, the Losties have not been very good at sharing their pasts with one another, or else Jack and Claire would be having sibling bonding time, etc... All other flashbacks/forwards thus far have been taken by the audience as truth because they've simply been memories/foretellings of events. Tonight Michael was telling Sayid his story. This makes me wonder about the credibility of the story, and whether this may be the first flash that is a lie, or is a half-truth. Doesn't it seem odd that Michael would omit the whole portion of his story that involves what happened when they followed that 325 bearing? Are we (and Sayid) to assume that Michael and Walt just magically flew back to Manhattan?
