5x12 - "Dead is Dead" Island

1. What Ben says after he wakes up supports my theory that the Monster is some sort of physical manifestation of the Island's consciousness. If it is considered scared enough to pass judgement, could that mean that Eko could have been an Other had he lived long enough?

2. It's confirmed, Ben killed Locke only after he got Locke's information on the Oceanic Six.

3. Ben's claimed to do a lot of things for the greater good of the Island. Why then did we have the pregnancy disease?

4. Ben set up Caesar just to earn Locke's trust.

5. According to the Other's moral code, allowing someone to die instead of saving their life is the same as killing them.

6. Ben probably knew all along that passengers from Oceanic 815 were in the DHARMA Initiative.

7. I would assume that Ben doesn't know anything about Christian Shepherd, if he's seriously freaking out about John Locke's resurrection.

8. If Locke knows how to find the Monster, does that mean he's officially an Other now

9. Ben is actually sorry for trying to kill Penelope?

10. What happened to Ilana and the other Ajira survivors? Did they get infected like Rousseau's team?

11. Again with the Egyptian hieroglyphs. They're all over the walls of the underside of the Temple.

12. So the Monster's flashes are flashbacks from Ben's life. It must have been the same for Eko in "the 23rd Psalm."

13. So Ben's officially been ousted and Locke is now the leader of the Others. It's been a long time coming.
