Except, does he remember that? I know he lost some of his memories when he was healed in the temple...But it seems like he still remembered his family... Hmm. <BR/><BR/>And you are right about Eko. But I still liked him. And I loved that in the end he didn't fall apart begging the smoke monster for mercy and to forgive him. He took ownership of his actions. He accepted the responsibility and the consequences for those actions. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your insights!!Sarah Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420097146485393526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1955308577721461635.post-21795626599130578052009-04-12T22:32:00.000-07:002009-04-12T22:32:00.000-07:00I think in the end, we're going to be surprised wi...I think in the end, we're going to be surprised with Ben. We see things as we see them...but once we know the whole story, it may be that Ben is the good guy the whole time.

That's how I read it. (Not to say he doesn't like babies; I think he just feels protective of motherless children in his own unique way!)<BR/><BR/>I kind of agree about the smoke monster thing, except I think that the island still has use for Ben, and maybe it was done with Eko. Also, Eko had such guilt that maybe he didn't want to live anymore? And the first things he did (killing that man for his brother) was for his family, but when he grew up, he probably could have gone his own way. He brought that life back to his brother and his village.Crunchyconmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05120098229031084328noreply@blogger.com
