The Man From Tallahassee - LOST

Mar 25, 2007 in Lost, tv


I think this episode was on of the best of this season.
I’ll give my reasons:
1º Now we know why John end up in a wheel chair
2º How Ben can be manipulator (ok, we kind knwe that)
3º Sometimes I thought Danielle was lieng about being Alex mother, but when she saw her, we could see in her eyes that she was in fact her mother.
4º In my opinion John is a very sufferd man, he was betrayed by his mother, his father got his kidney and just run away and tried to kill him.
5º End up in a wheel chair.

I think he has reasons to not come back, reaosons to blow up that submarine, the island is good to him, he is different man, even when he wasn’t in a wheel chair, when we saw the flashbacks, we could see sadness is his eyes, but now he is doing everything he wanted, remember how he end up in that plain? He was going to some kind hunting, a adventure, and because he was in wheel chair they didn’t let him.
Now his dream is coming true, he is hunter, has a lot of adventure, and is not in a wheel chair anymore, and was far far away from his father, till now.
I am afraid that when he saw his father in the island, he turn back that sad John, with no adventure spirit.
