Perhaps he doesn't need the body to simply impersonate someone, but needs the body to leave the island. Ilana implicated that by becoming Locke, MIB "trapped" himself, indicating that perhaps this incarnation is different than previous shapeshifting he's done.

I think it is pretty well established that it was indeed Richards wife that Hurley was talking too.....but when Richard was in chains.......who the eff knows;)

Yes, I think it must be something along those lines......who the eff really knows though:D

Sorry, I meant that because Hurley saw the real wife, maybe Richard saw his real wife, too.

Could be, it's just that why would a ghost pretend to be attacked?



My next puzzlement:

What was Widmore trying to accomplish with the bombardment of Team Flocke?

1) I don't think bombs really hurt this thing....

2) If Widmore is just trying to kill Flockes followers; why use non-lethal tranquilizers when taking Jin?

3) Could he have been trying to kill Jack?

I thought what's her name (I'm horrible with names) Widmore chick said something like "if you've got a line on Locke use it". Then they bombed em.

Yes, yes, well - you've had your 15 minutes of LOST Thread fame. Thanks for contributing your little "tid-bit." ahem.



so stick around and read if you care to ... and chime in again when your other blurry appearances airs, k? ((kisses))

That's right, she did......now that I think about it, didn't Jack have some limited success against the smoke monster with dynomite back in season one?

Maybe Widmore does know what he's doing afterall......:confused:

I think she said "If you have a lock on my position..."

That's what she said when she showed up in Locke's camp and they bombed near it to scare him. But at the end of the episode when they fired again nearly hitting Locke and Jack she said "If you've got line of sight on Locke".

Ah. I missed her saying that.
