Dead is Dead-Recap(revisit)

A man riding on a horse through the jungle to his camp(this has to be Charles!)…YES!! It is! Richard tells him that the island chooses who the island chooses(Widmore seems very angry about all of this until Richard tells him this…Richard tells him that Jacob wanted it done…that’s all he needed to say apparently…Charles goes in to talk to young Ben…Charles lets him know that they are going to take care of him and that he will be back soon. Ben doesn’t want to go back to his dad…He wants to be one of them…Charles tells him just because he lives with them doesn’t mean he can be one of them…he tells him that he is lucky that the island saved him and he is Charles Widmore! (how many other folks are living in Dharma that are grooming others!)


Flash…Ben is knocked out and Locke tells him welcome back to the living! Ben is completely shocked and tells Locke he knew it would happen! He tells locke its one thing to believe it and another thing to see it! (this is very much tied to his Thomas story he told Jack)..Locke wants to know why he was leaving to go to the other island..he tells Locke that he “broke the rules” and he is here to be judged by the smoke monster…



Illana and other survivors are working to move a crate…Ben offers to help and they decline..Caesar wants to know how ben is and what he thinks of Locke…Ben tells him that maybe Locke was already here and he might be crazy(this could be another Ben lie to further what he wants and maybe further Walts dreams…)He introduces himself to Ben and says he has his back…




Flash to late island 80’s…Ben and young Ethan are out to Kill the French chick…but when ben finds out she has a baby he takes it and tells her that if she wants to live never to come looking and if she hears whispers to run the other way (hmm…what exactly are the whispers and why does ben tell her to run the other way??!!)…






Flash…Ben is at his desk taking a picture of himself and Alex…Locke shows up and wants some explanation of why Ben killed him…Ben said it was the only way to get everyone back…and that he failed and that’s why he had to die…ben said he had info that he needed to help and Ben didn’t have the time to talk him back into hanging himself…Locke says he was just hoping for an apology!…Locke said he has decided to help Ben be judged…



Ben and Locke are getting one of the boats ready to take over to the other island and Caesar tries to stop them…Locke said he is going and when Caesar tries to stop them and grab his gun Ben pulls out his gun and kills Caesar…Ben says they are going to the other island…he tells Locke consider this my apology…





Locke and Ben make it to the other island and Locke wants to know who is already here…Ben tells him its sun and lapidus…also Ben tells him that his arm was hurt by someone else and that friends are more dangerous than enemies…Locke said he no sense in me dying twice…they are going to Ben’s old house to summon the smoke monster.…Locke thinks Ben is lying about being judged for breaking the rules…he thinks he wants to be judged for killing his daughter..


Flash to late island 80’s…Ben brings back Alex and Widmore is upset..he tells Ben that his orders were to exterminate the woman!…and Ben said it’s a child and shouldn’t be killed..Widmore tells Ben that every thing he has done has been in the best interest of the island..Ben says to him is killing her what Jacob wants??!!…He then tells widmore to do it then…he walks off…




Locke and Ben are walking to a ravaged Dharma camp…Locke wants to know who’s idea it was to move here…and Ben tells him that its what the island wants and locke says it doesn’t seem like its what the island wants and Ben says you don’t have the slightest idea what the island wants and Locke says are you sure about that!






A light comes on in Alex’s room and ben goes in to check it out…its sun and frank…they show Ben the pic of the Dharma folk and Ben seems very surprised about it…he wants to know who gave it to him and they said an old man named Christian…Ben seems very freaked now…they tell him that he said if she wants to ever see her husband again she has to wait here for Locke…he is there and Sun is very shocked…he tells her that he is all the help she needs…she decides to stay and frank leaves…


She wants to know how locke knows but locke says ben has something to do first…Ben goes through his closet area(same as last season) to summon the monster…its very ancient and when he goes to summon it its almost like a drain…he lets the water out and with a very funny comment in my mind tells it that he will be outside!…





Flash …Ben is swinging Alex and Richard comes up to tell him the sub is leaving and Ben says he has to see him off…Widmore is leaving the island(I guess this is him being banished..just like he told Locke)..Ben tells him he doesn’t deserve to be here that he left the island too much and had a daughter with an outsider…and Ben tells him he is the one that wanted alex dead and not the island…Widmore says he hopes Ben is right…(of course this plays into her death completely!)
Flash…Sun tells Ben that Locke had to take care of something and she doesn’t seem to believe that Locke was dead and Ben admits to sun that he was really dead and that he has seen the island heal the sick and that nothing has ever happened like this..and that he is very scared…he tells sun to go inside..and Locke comes out instead and wonders why the monster hasn’t shown up yet…Locke says we will have to go to it..Ben doesn’t know where it is but Locke does…he tells sun he knows its weird but he is the same man he has always been…they head off to the monster…


Flash….Ben calls Widmore and tells him that he is going back to the island…and he is going to kill his daughter… Flash…Sun, Locke and Ben go through the jungle…and Ben seems baffled that Locke knows everything…and he tells Locke he hates not knowing..and Locke says well now you know what it was like to be me!…they keep walking and end up at the temple..Ben says he remembers they brought him here as a child to be healed…(wonder how much he remembers)…Locke tells Ben they are not going in the temple they are going under it!(same place as before with the French party!)…Sun gets a request from Ben..he wants her to find Des and tell him that he was sorry…

Flash…Ben tries to kill Penny…he shoots des and walks over but when he see’s that they have a child he cant do it…and then des shows up and beats the living heck out of him and dumps him in the water…(this explains why he looked the way he did!)

Flash…Frank is back on the other island and one of the survivors tells him that illana found guns and they are incharge now…she shows up and asks him what lies in the shadow of the statue…frank doesn’t know what she is saying and she knocks him out and tells them to tie him up and that its time…

Locke and Ben are walking under the temple and Ben admits that he is there to be judged for the death of alex…Ben goes off alone and falls even further down…it is very ancient and old…Locke goes running to get him something to help him out…Ben walks and see’s the holes and the smoke monster comes out to judge him…it circles him and alexes life flashes before bens eyes…it then goes away without harming him…WOW! Then Alex shows up and tells him to not even think about killing locke…that he has to listen to him…hmm she has to be the smoke monster…Locke then calls for him and Locke wants to know what happened and Ben tells him that it let him live…fade to black!
