I can’t get over the whole Ben Linus and Charles Widmore thing. What is the deal with these two?
I’m tellin’ you, these two are either aliens, or they are angels that were cast out or something. No b.s.
Think about it. It’s in the dialogue.
Ben said that Charles
“changed the rules” when that mercenary guy shot Alex in the head. Even Locke was startled by that statement, and we know it takes a lot to get to Locke. It’s almost as if it’s some sort of game between them.
Life, death…power.
When Ben snuck into Widmore’s penthouse, what did he say?
”Are you here to kill me, Benjamin?” - Charles
“We both know I can’t do that?” – BenWhy? Are they immortal? Listen, I know it sounds farfetched, but it happens too often with the dialogue to be a coincidence. An example from Charles:
“I know who you are, boy. What you are.” - Charles to BenAnother:
“That island is mine, Benjamin. It was before, it will be…again.” - Charles to BenClearly, Widmore knows about the island’s powers. We now know Ben lied about the smoke monster. He called it to do his bidding. I think that was the best scene in the history of the show.
And then there's Jacob. Who or what is he? Some people believe that Jacob is Jack. Some fans think that Jacob is really Jack from the future who is somehow trapped in time on the island. This took root when Hurley saw Jack’s father, Christian Shepherd, in Jacob’s chair earlier this season. Others believe Jacob is an angel cast out or possibly an alien. The alien theory comes from the four-toed statue from the season finale of season two which has yet to be explained.
So what is going on? We now know that Ben now wants to kill Penny. Is it just revenge? Is he restoring some type of balance, an eye for an eye? I’m not sure, but I can’t wait to find out. The problem is we got two more seasons after this.
