What happens if Micheal doesn't get off the Island. Is it possible that he might end up back on the island and get killed off for what he did. He has already proven he is traitorous and can't be trusted. Will Hurley attempt vengence he did love Libby. Or will Micheal be shunned to the point of suicide.

Actually, if he runs into the newly escaped or released trio, he may receive some sympathy since they have now experienced the kind of psychological torture Michael probably underwent and will understand how desperate and deranged it can make you.

I think the "gods" of the island will take care of Michael. He will be dealt with.

The interesting thing is whether or not Walt... who was identified as "special" by the others... will come back in some way to save the day.

I wonder if Walt is considered "special" because of his powers/ age/ abilities/ or some other unknown issue.

Do we know if we're gonna see them again this season? I thought I remember hearing something like that but maybe I was dreaming...

I seem to remember TPTB saying that they would go back to the Michael and Walt storyline, but I'm not sure if they said it would be this season. I think it was on one of the recent podcasts.

I hope not. Does Walt really deserve to be a orphan?

I think he'll die trying to redeem himself if he does comeback.

I wonder if....the heading they sent him on returned him to the OTHER island!? Then they could both have Walt back AND deal with him for being bad...killing the two women, knocking Locke out??

Powers, age (Goodwin-"Children are fine") and teleporting abilities are not enough to be considered SPECIAL by you?? hahaha :biggrin: Sounds pretty darned special to me!

You make a good point that Hurley is due his day with Michael. I was shocked when Michael admitted he killed Libby and Hurley didn't do AT LEAST what he did to Sawyer for all the name calling. Suicide?? Nah. The deaths on the island have been pretty violent at the hands of other people....except Boones which was an accident. Either quick and dead, or long lasting suffering and dead. I would hope that the Others have something planned for him....and we all know that aint gonna be nice. I just don't see what could be seen as a "cop-out" as his ending. The TPTB are too sharp for that.:rolleyes:

This seems to be a convenient and final way to redeem a character. It would be cool if there was something else he could do to redeem himself. He did kill two characters that the original losties didn't know too much about, so maybe it will be easier to be forgiven. That is, except by Hurley, unless Hurley finds out that Libby was a psycho stalker or something.

Michael is a worthless scab, I was one "they took my son!!!!" (hell Walt is infanitly better off with the others then his sorry, lame ***) away from swearing the show off. Had I been Jack I would have sentanced Michael and Locke to an eternity of tossing each others salads.

Michael is such a sub-human that I doubt he really knows how to drive a boat let alone understand a compass enough to guide that little craft out of the westerly, one way electromagnetic exit and ends up bouncing off the outer most field pointing him right back to the island for which he will serve as the resident salad tosser.

HA HA HA, lmao dtdionne!!! :biggrin:

Hehe...ive got to admit, I really cracked myself up good with that post too.

What an amazing show!!

This is actually quite true, I'm really interested in seeing how a scene like this would play out. Good post LIL!

I for one won't mind if Micheal dies. He's a scoundral, a murderer, a liar and a backstabber.

I was half excepting for the boat to blow up while it was sailing away in LTDA. Probably good that it didn't because poor Walt. But honestly, I don't think Michael'll be back. It seems to me that this was their way of solving the Walt age problem. But for the sake of conversation, if he did return I agree that he would probably die redeeming himself. This show is about redemption after all! I honestly don't know if anyone would be sympathetic towards him though. They may understand him better, but no one else that has been taken by them has unnecessarily killed two people. So my guess would be: The other castaways would shun him and he would die redeeming himself somehow.

HAHA!!
resident salad tosser.

I think that may be too good for Micheal though.

(selfish SOB)

Why does everyone hate Michael for what he did to AL and Libby? Pretty much all of the characters are murderers. Eko was a godamn Warlord. Sayid was a torturer. Kate was on the run for murder. Why is Michael automaticly hated while those three are amongst the most popular characters?

At least when Michael killed people, it was to save his damn son.

I think it's mostly becuase Ana and Libby were characters that people actually cared about. Especially Libby, she was nice to everyone. Where as the other characters were people we didn't care about. Sawyer's shrimp man, Kate's dad, any of Eko's victims. No one (as in the audience) knew them or cared about them. Sayid can get away with torturing Sawyer and "Henry" becuase they a) didn't die and are still a part of the show and b) "deserved it". Whereas Libby and Ana a) are now dead and gone from the show and b) were completely innocent and just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Yes, they're all still murders, but Michael killed two people that we cared about. So, he gets slammed harder than anyone else for his murder. That's my thoughts on it anyway.

This is true, but it doesn't work for Locke, since he killed Boone, who we know was much loved by many fans.

True, but technically Boone was an accident. Locke didn't cause the plane to fall. Believe me, Boone's death is just one of the reasons I'm not so fond of Mr Locke, but in general, that can be reasoned away becuase Locke didn't intentionally kill Boone, whereas Michael knew exactly what he was doing when he shot Ana. And Michael was the one that pulled the trigger on Libby, and didn't deny that had he had time to think about it he still would have killed her. That's the difference there.

Locke also so no remorse for Boone for a long time saying the island wanted it to happen, whereas Micheal regretted and apologised to AL even before he pulled the trigger, I think both cases could be argued and reasoned to cast either character in a good or bad light.

Honestly, I think that the fact that Michael apologized right before he shot Ana is worse than Locke taking a month (give or take) to apologize. It shows that Michael obviously knew what he was doing was wrong but he did it anyway. Saying your sorry right before you kill someone is not really apologizing and doesn't make the murder any better.

Locke's situation was incredibly different. Locke didn't directly kill Boone, while Michael did. Believe me, Locke's comment about Boone is one of the major reasons I have a hard time getting along with him. However, Locke believes that everything happens for a reason and I think that by saying that, he was trying to say that Boone had to die because it brought him and Jack to the place they are now. Just as he is now trying to find a reason for Eko's death. It came out VERY wrong though. Locke needs to believe that Boone's death was not in vain. So, I think he did feel remorse. He maybe didn't show it that well, but let's face it, Locke's not a man to show his feelings around others that much. I think he was too obsessed with the hatch and trying to figure out why exactly it was that Boone had to die. I do think that Locke and Boone had a connection of some sort and Locke was very sorry that he died. (And this is coming from a Locke hater :o )

Anyway.... Boone and Locke is not only a completely different story, but completely off topic, yeah?

I'm not saying they are the same situation, or that somehow one character is more justified for their actions which led to deaths. I'm saying someone could spin both character's stories and cast both character's in either a bright or dark light. (and are you sure you are a locke Hater :) )

I still don't get why Michael had to kill Ana and Libby at all. There were other ways, surely, to free Henry? OK, I know the show producers wanted rid of them ...

Funny though. I don't HATE Michael at all for what he did even if I don't understand it. But I reckon he would not be popular at all with the other Losties if he had to return, and figure he'd be stuck with the Others instead.

:) Pretty sure. Check out the Locke board if you don't believe me (I'm pretty sure they're annoyed with me over there) ;) Actually, I kind of flip flop when it comes to him. But most of the time (and right now), I don't like him.

Anyways, I see what you're saying. But the difference is Michael physically and intentionally pulled the trigger on Ana and doesn't deny that he would have still killed Libby if he had had time to think about it, whereas Boone was a complete accident. I see how you could justify it with him needing to save and protect his son. But like Gallivant said, was it really necessary to kill Ana to set "Henry" free? I think at least some of them would have understood his need to let "Henry" go to save Walt if he had talked to them about it. We all know Ana's soft spot for kids, she'd probably understand. Then he could trick Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Hurley into going towards the others camp by telling them they needed to meet up with Walt to get him back or something. That way, no one dies, and he still gets Walt back. That's just one idea I came up with right now, obviously Michael thought about this a lot, he couldn't come up with a way to do it without killing anyone?

I think had Michael not murdered anyone in cold blood he would have gotten off a lot easier. Obviously people would still be mad, but I think most (at least some) would understand and be sympathetic to him even though he betrayed four friends. He'd probably be shunned from the camp a little, but not as extremely as I think he would if he returns under these circumstances. Heck, some may even respect him a little for his determination to save his son (that may be giving them a little too much credit though) ;)
