Did he die? Well yeah, hard to continue breathing with a chain wrapped around your neck. Sawyer killed him.

mvp - Thanks.. I was just messing around in that post. I think Kevin Johnson is Michael, too.

I so can't wait to find out why Michael comes back (and I refuse to believe he never left)... I've missed his nappy head.

From Tivo, the title of episode 8 is "Meet Kevin Johnson". The description says that Sayeed meets Ben's contact on the ship. Of...

Sometimes the obvious answer is the right answer. Wow that was deep, huh. It might be a surprise to those who don't hang out on the net all the time. Junkies we are.
I'll just shit my pants if it isn't Michael. Now there's a pleasant visual for ya.

I think Michael could be on the freighter but that he isn't Ben's man. It just seems too obvious.

I'm pretty sure that Jacob is also Michael.

DID THIS THREAD SAY "THEORIES" OR "SPOILERS" IN IT?!?!?!?

Thanks a frucking lot. Please tell me you were joking about Michael being The Economist...

It's a given that Mike is returning. I don't believe he's been on that boat all this time. An entire episode (which I'm sure Michael will have) taking place just on the freighter would be boring as crap to me. SO, he would have an off island flashback combined with a freighter flashback.. that would be cool. I'm confused as to why the hell he'd get back home then go back to the island, but maybe it's all about Walt? Maybe Walt is the reason he goes back -...

Fingers crossed that it's one of the flashback characters like Nadia, Kate's mom, Boone's mom, Sawyer's ex/Kate's friend, Aaron's daddy, Kate's ex-husband etc. :)

After the preview for next week, the odds are now 3 to 5 that it's Mikey.

feeds@yuku.com (GodIsAnAtheist) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 21:36:37 GMT

The only reason I'm not sure that it's someone we've met before is that IF it is someone who was on the island, wouldn't the freighter people be a little more forthcoming with that information? I mean, Ben sure didn't talk to this person like he was being held PRISONER by the Freighters, so I dunno.

It could have been the helicopter pilot for all we know. He didn't seem to care much for the rest of the boaties.

Didn't the note the copter pilot was looking at say 305, not 325?

feeds@yuku.com (Bad Boyfriend) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 21:15:36 GMT

Minkowski said Sayid and Des must have had a friend on the boat (whoever opened the door for them). Sounds like a good case for the man being Michael.

I'm having a hard time supporting the Michael is the spy theory...

I think that if the people who are looking for Ben knew enough about the area to have some idea as to where the island is, they would probably find it weird that some random man and his son were floating around on a fishing boat in that obscure of an area (Sawyer even told Michael that that isn't the type of boat to take off shore more than about 100 miles). It seems like the first thing they would've...

feeds@yuku.com (Screerider) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 18:05:20 GMT

Yeah, there'd be no point to emphasize the helicopter also follow a particular bearing, if it was simply the way to the Freighter. The pilot would just fly back to the Freighter, any which way.

So Ben would have had to tell Michael to go that bearing whether the Freighter was there or not. In order to for Ben to know the Freighter was there, Ben would need another spy within the Freighties organization, either also on the boat or at it's homebase. Which begs the question...

Re: Bens Contact on the ship...

feeds@yuku.com (pussycow) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 17:57:29 GMT

I assume that he is too. Of course the bearing could possibly fluctuate over time. But I do believe there is a sliver of an entry point into 'island space'

Bens Contact on the ship...

Im surprised this hasnt been theorized yet, or maybe it has and I missed it, but has anyone else thought that Bens contact/spy back on the freighter may be Michael? They have met before, and Ben is a pretty persuasive guy. I mean he was sent back home after he did Bens previous bidding. Ben may have hired him on for some extra work . Also, Harold Perrineaus name keeps coming up in the opening credits, and he hasnt been seen in quite some time.
