I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old, the stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." "If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored."
one thing that is clear is that ben hates widmore hates ben... a question that i have to ask is, is either of them truthful? and how does this effect the eternal fight between good and evil? this is what i came up with:
IF WIDMORE IS LYING: 1-it means he is out to exploit the island. 2-ben is protecting the island 3- locke is a good guy also protecting the island 4- sayid's future is justified 5- jack is wrong about going back 6-kate is right about not going back 7-the survivors need to stay to protect the sanctity of the island. 8- desmond's chances of dying are high
IF BEN IS LYING: 1-widmore wants to protect the island 2- sayid's future is a lie 3-locke's actions are wrong 4-widmore is a good guy 5-jack is right about getting back to the island 6- kate is wrong about not going back 7-desmond chances of living are greater than dying.
IF BOTH ARE LYING: 1- neither is good 2-sayid has been manipulated and his future is a lie 3-locke has been manipulated and his actions ar wrong 4- jack is right about going back; kate is wrong 5-the island survives by itself aat any cost (the island is bad?)
IF BOTH ARE TRUTHFUL: A- and the island is evil 1-ben is protecting evil 2- widmore wants to exploit evil 3-widmore is bad 4-ben is bad 5-sayid is manipulated by ben to protect evil 6-locke is manipulated by ben and the island to protect bad 7-jack is wrong and kate is right B. and the island is good 1- ben is protecting good. 2- widmore wants to exploit good 3- ben may be evil wanting to contain good or good wanting to protect it 4-widmore could use good for more good or he could use good in an evil way. 5-sayid in the future is protecting good and preventing it's exploitation 6- locke is protecting good 7- jack wants to go back to good 8- kate wants to stay in an evil world.
any way this goes some of the characters we love will be wrong or evil and others will be good/right... but not always what we want.... comments??
