The Mole on the Boat

lost_grrl · 02-28-2008, 11:25 PM

After tonights episode, many people are suggesting that Frank is Ben's mole. I think that would be too easy and the writers wouldn't have been so covert about the open door if that were the case.

What about this...SAYID is the mole. We know that he works for Ben in the future. Perhaps he tells Ben everything about the boat in the future and Ben remembers it in the present/past. So some other consciousness of Sayid left the door open in a future or past trip to the boat. Remember that Desmond didn't remember Penny's phone number one minute and then did after an episode. So maybe it is the same thing with Sayid--one incarnation needed the door open and another (past or future) left it open.

very good.... hadn't thought of that!i really like this idea and agree that ben's spy on the boat probably is Sayid, as we already know that he is ben's spy in the future. who else could it be?God, its all so confusing! but i love it! best episode this season for sure.

I posted this in another thread, but i think its fairly obvious the mole and the one who opened the door for Sayid and Desmond will end up being Michael

What if Walt is the mole on the boat?
The freighter folks have no reason to see him as a threat. what could he possibly do, right? and it would explain how Ben is getting info from the ship. We all know how Walt can communicate with people on the island.

I really think Michael is it, but how and why I have no idea. I hate when I have no hard evidence to back up my theories.

What if the answer isn't that simple. What if, let's say, Ben or Locke can "time travel" like Desmond. Since that island time seems to run slower, could Ben or Locke have went back, got on the ship, and brought himself to the island and time sort of catches up with his island self, thus both living at the same time. Didn't people think that at one time that Ben had an "evil" twin, could this be his "past" self that caught up with his island self.

Confusing.

I had an odd thought. I'm not entirely sure it's possible - or even probable, but what if Goodwin isn't dead and he's the spy? What if the island/Jacob saved him after Ana-Lucia stabbed him and that wasn't really his body that Ben showed Juliet?

There's absolutely no basis for that what so ever.

from the preview of next weeks episode we know michaels on the boat, but that doesn't necesarily mean that he is the spy
When Michael sailed away from the island with Walt he was under the impression that he was headed home.

After the preview for next weeks episode I definitelty think it's Michael... Someone we "never expected to see AGAIN." He is the only person I can think of that hasn't been on the show for the longest time and didn't die...
