might all end up dead. :eek2: Its not lookin too good that all 3 of them are in a room full of explosives.

:sob:

MURDER MICHAEL WITH PAIN!!

But don't hurt Jin and Dessypoo!!! :sob: :sob:

I felt this way too!

NO. Nonononononono. I won't believe. Maybe Jin. Maybe. But Michael hasn't been redeemed yet. To bring HP back this season for just a few episodes, and then to die? No resolution of the Walt story? No. And Desmond? I refuse to believe it. He HAS to be reunited with Penny.

Des's got the constant. Michael and Jin are in trouble.

I have a feeling they all end up back on the island somehow, stranded again. That's what I hope anyway, it's better than the other alternative.

There goes the Desmond-Penny reunion!!! :blowup:

There's no way they would kill all 3 of them at once in an explosion. If anyone dies, I see it being Michael or Jin.

Des's got the constant. Michael and Jin are in trouble.


His constant doesn't keep him from dying. It keeps him from consciousness-time-jumping.

If they kill Michael, I'll be angry.

Maybe the freighter blows up, Jin dies but Michael, Sun, Aaron and Des end up floating on pieces of the ship, ala end of S1. Sun and Aaron get rescued by the helicopter - Jack and Sayid will be hanging out the copter doors, pulling them to safety while Frank does some heroic maneuvering above the water. Michael gets pulled by the currents one way and finds his way back home again, only to end up in the coffin but Des ends up going in circles and back to craphole island. Poor Des, but at least he'd be alive!

This was my initial thought as well, especially after Jin whispered something to Sun in Korean (pretty clearly "take the baby and get the hell off this boat" or something to that effect), and taking into account the fact that there were several crash survivor redshirts still on the boat. That's a lot of people (Jin and the redshirts) who we know DON'T make it off the island, and only Sun and Aaron who we know for a fact DO.

That said, I don't think there's any way they kill Desmond off. With the possible exceptions of Ben, Widmore, and Locke, he's as important of a character as there is with regards to the mythology of the show and the island. I also think he lives to be re-united with Penny (many parallels between the Desmond/Penny storyline and the Odyssey, starting with her name; I think they're the only main characters on the show whose storylines have a "happy ending").

Additionally, I don't think they're quite done with Michael yet. Main reason being that we know Walt still has a significant role to play in the show, and Michael is the only thing still connecting Walt to Ben/the island.

My prediction is that next week we'll see Sun, Aaron, Desmond, and probably Michael get off the freighter just before it goes boom; Jin will do something that makes their escape possible, but will die a heroic death in the process.

Its one of those "Cool" scenes where you gasp and think wild thought of who is going to die. My guess is no one significant is going to die on the boat, unless it Michael who redeems himself somehow????

I'll be pissed off.

Again . . . why is Michael the only one who has to redeem himself through death? He is not the only one who has committed murder or tried to commit murder.

I don't think any of them will die. It's just a hunch. Well, at least in that particular scene.

My guess is that some kind of spectacular and dramatic incident (an explosion) will occur that will imply that a number of our Losties lost their lives - but there will be some loophole in how the scene is portrayed that will give us viewers hope that not all of them are necessarily dead.

Well, I was thinking that the driver of the boat gets 5 miles off shore like he says and maybe they get off the boat as fast as they can and are back on the island w/o any of the explosives going off?

This is probably wishful thinking. :(. I don't want any of those three to die! :(

NO. Nonononononono. I won't believe. Maybe Jin. Maybe. But Michael hasn't been redeemed yet. To bring HP back this season for just a few episodes, and then to die? No resolution of the Walt story? No. And Desmond? I refuse to believe it. He HAS to be reunited with Penny.

Yeah... I would be *devastated* if Des dies anytime soon.

I honestly think he's safe for the time being, because with him around, the storyline of Ben wanting to kill Penny becomes much more compelling and dramatic.
100%
Des's got the constant. Michael and Jin are in trouble.

Having a constant just means the time-travel stuff won't kill you... It does *not* make you immortal altogether, so having a constant doesn't make Des safe.

Nonetheless, I think he is though. See above.:)

Des seems to have survived his last explosion alright. I'm voting a bunch of them get stranded on the island again, after the O6 make it out.

I don't think they are in grave danger at the moment, because remember Sun and Aaron are on the freighter as well and they both survive. They cannot very well blow up the freighter with two of the O6 on board. Therefore, Jin, Mike and Des still have a chance to be among the living. Good Luck.

Other than some Redshirts, I doubt anybody besides Michael will die when the Freighter blows...

Something tells me Desmond and Jin will not die. Michael may very well be the one to go.

I see the 3 of them attempting to disarm the bomb together. Michael ultimately decides to go with the "I'm cutting the blue wire" approach, telling the other 2 to get the hell out.

Jin, in his heroic self sacrifice, tells Sun to get off the ship. For Desmond, his choice is either certain death, or collecting himself back on the island. He goes to the island. Ship ends up blasted to hell. Everyone thinks Jin (and Michael) are dead. Something tells me Michael will die, but Jin will survive, although no one will know it.

Des - back on the island
Jin - dead
Mike - off island, dies, Jack goes to his wake.

There's no way they would kill all 3 of them at once in an explosion. If anyone dies, I see it being Michael or Jin.

Agreed. Des seems to have way too much story left to tell, what with Penny, Ben's vendetta, the Widmore connection, the time travel, etc.

I'm still not quite sure what Michael's point is this season in being back. Maybe he will have a redemptive moment in the finale, but otherwise -- he's hardly met any of the other losties, including the ones he screwed over the most (Jack, Hurley, Kate, and Sawyer). I don't know, I feel more could have been done with him. But I don't know how they get off the freighter! Wandering back to the island does seem like the most likely possibility.

D'oh! I just realized if Mike dies in a fiery explosion, that's the end of the Michael in the coffin theory.

Jin will not die. I can't see a reason why they would kill Jin. A korean spekaing woman just fell from the sky. That's a pretty good conflit for Jin in season 5. She will fall in love. He will get confused. He will cheat on Sun. Will regret it. Fell guilty. By season 6, they'll have a happy ending. There are absolutely no point at all having Charlotte speaking Korean for not add up to Sun/Jin arc. Since we know that it is not Charlotte who gets to decide who will leave the island.

With Michael being present, I don't believe the C4 will explode. The island has stopped Michael from being killed before, why would that change yet?
There is the possibility that if (/when) the island gets moved, Michael may no longer be relavent and allowed to be killed. Personally, I suspect that it is too soon for that.

...just my opinion.

The slow mo shot of Sun looking back at the door she just exited was pretty intense. My bet is the boat does explode, and my hope is that Des, Jin, and Michael some how are not killed.

It would be a huge blow to the show to lose all 3 of those characters at once....

Other than some Redshirts, I doubt anybody besides Michael will die when the Freighter blows...


If they kill off Michael I will be through with this show. It would be rather stupid to bring back Harold Perrineau for less than eight episodes as a regular cast member, only to kill his character in end. It's just plain stupid.

Michael's return would be pretty pointless if they killed him now. I mean, he hasn't exactly done anything to redeem himself.

I would be crushed if Des died.

I doubt the freighter will blow up simply because the helicopter has to have someplace to land.

I say all the B teamers die in a freighter explosion along with the freighter crew, Sun, Michael, Aaron, and Jin make it back to the island. Maybe Jin has a fatal wound from the explosion and dies on the island, or runs off somehwere while the rest have to boogie on a yet-to-be-seen raft. Or somehow Ben finds a way to keep Jin on the island in order to get Sun to take on her dad.

Ben may end up with "hostages" for all the O6 to keep them working for him/the island. He/island has Claire (Jack), Sawyer (Kate), Jin (Sun), everyone else (Hurley and Said), and Desmond (Penny- not O6 but still pretty important in the whole Ben vs. Widmore dynamic). Plus I think Hurley dies soon, since no one else lives close enough for Jack to drive his relic Jeep to their funeral. Or maybe my head will explode and I'll never find out.

Desmond will live. And Michael has to live, so he can go commit suicide in LA and have a funeral that no one comes to. Jin? See ya. Wouldn't wanna be ya.

Do we know that's Michae? Seems more likely it's Ben to me.

You guys remember when Michael was going to explode the boat but the bomb didn't work and a note on it said 'not yet"? Well it could be very well "time" in the season finale.

I hope Jin and Des make it off though. I love those bunches!

I doubt the freighter will blow up simply because the helicopter has to have someplace to land.

Meh. All that means is the boat can't blow up until after the helicopter has landed, depositing Jack and Hurley with the rest of the O6.
