[QUOTE="Steverooo, post: 1973475, member: 9410"] [b]Here's an Idea: Walt[/b] Locke has Walt throwing knives. Walt misses, and says "Aw! I suck!" Locke tells Walt to visualize, and try again. Walt does, and succeeds... Walt is looking at a book on birds. One of them appears, headed straight for him, and smashes into a window. The plane crashes. Walt finds a comic book. He looks in it, and sees a polar bear. Elsewhere, one appears (apparently headed the other way) and is shot by Sawyer. In the last episode, Walt is again reading the comic book (en Espanol), sees the bear, again, wanders off into the jungle, and encounters one... It seems that Walt needs pictures, to make his "power" work. Right now, it is usually pictures in a book. Locke is training him to make pictures in his mind... Questions: Is his "power" limited to animals? (That's all we've seen, so far!) And what (if anything) was Walt reading, on the plane? (We still don't know why it went down, or landed safely, in pieces!) And if the island is giving them what they need most, then Rose will be seeing Bernard, again! As for Locke and Boone, I don't see Locke as sinister, as some do, nor Boone as his lackey... I see Locke as (Duh!) "The General", training his "soldiers" to fight "the others". These others may be "the Others" Rouseau talked about (probably, since they're repeating that episode right before we learn about them from Claire), or they may be something else. In any case, we now have at least six guns (the one Sayer got from the Marshal, the four Jack got from his suitcase, and - maybe! - the rifle Rouseau had). Handsome is as handsome does, and Locke's actions have always been to try to [I]free[/I] people from whatever binds them. Charlie from drug addiction, Jack from the bad advice of his dad, Boone from the clutches of his manipulative sister. Possibly Michael from his anger and pain, as well... And the others? If Locke's "soldiers" are free, what binds the others? We don't know, we haven't seen that, yet, but probably... [I]the same things[/I]! There's probably some facet of each of the survivors in one or more of the others. Since the survivors have already overcome their own bindings, they will probably find that they can also overcome those still bound by those old chains... [/QUOTE]
