Are Desmond, Locke, and Eko still alive?

I truely hope so... After all, Charlie was.

i'm not sure about this one. i'm HOPING that eko and locke are still alive because they both rule. i'm also thinking that Desmond is dead, and i was pretty sure until Penelope came into the picture at the end. Unless she is looking for someone/something else, desmond is probably MIRACULOUSLY alive.

one of those three will have to die in that "Doomsday" Beneath the planet of the Apes ending. I don't think that Yemi's spirit would steer Eko in a direction that would have him be killed. Where Desmond is concerned, they have just started to flesh out a past for him, plus he has "military experience", like Sayid perhaps helpful to the lostaways seeking the return of Jack and company. Locke needs to die!!! Long, long ago Locke should have had the sense to employ the "George Costanza" rule to any meaningful decisions he'd been knockin' around in that Mr. Clean head of his. Locke and important decision making are a bad mix. Trusted his Father, got screwed. Did not take rationale advice from his girlfriend, got screwed and dumped. I can't count the number of bad decisions he has made on the island. Like George Costanza, whenever a seemingly good idea pops into that dome of his, he should immediately do the opposite. Then he'd be right all the time. We all know that won't happen so he needs to go.

Agree. I figure Desmond didn't make it (and didn't expect to) but since he urged Locke to get away from the hatch if he could, he must have expected that the "kill radius" would be small from whatever would happen when the key was turned.

We KNOW Locke and Eko survive, they're coming back next season. I really started to hate Locke for being so adament about not pushing the button. Once again, someone had to lose their life for this hatch. I hope Des did survive, and that Penelope finds him.

Yes! I think they're alive. I don't know how long that will last into next season. I bet they are pretty messed up. and with the doc at Camp Other I think it could be real bad for those three.

I think they are alive, locke and eko were inside the blast doors and desmond was in a smaller hatch type thing to the key inside the blast doors.

But did eko get inside the blast doors...I HOPE SO!!!
