Quince predicts... - Page 2

Prediction 5 : Rousseau will turn out to be the brother of Kate's biological father, i.e. her Aunt. Thus Alex will be Kate's cousin.

Prediction 6 : The "He"/Others boss who Zeke and Ethan refer to as being angry in "Maternity Leave" will turn out to be the Henry Gale character.

See my comments in this thread:
"He" who is he?

Prediction 7 : Locke has mentioned that he had a sister who fell off monkey bars and broke her neck (this to Kate and Sawyer when they were hunting Sawyer's boar), and at another time he said he had a brother. It will turn out that Locke was blamed as a child for his sister's death, even though it was his brother's fault. Locke's brother was the real Sawyer who conned James Fords parents.

Locke is Gale's brother...

Prediction 8 : The virus and vaccine is bogus, a means of control within the Others/DHARMA group by it's devious leader. It's like the button, 'if you don't take the vaccine, you will die of the terrible illness.' (except the button is real, the vaccine is not). When the leader "He" (aka Henry, I think) wants to make someone sick, he gives them the sickness, it is not due to not getting the vaccine. But he uses the threat of depriving them of the vaccine (they think they need to live) to keep them under control and on the island.

I predict Henry's virus/vaccine hoax will be uncovered by Jack, who will either threaten to, or actually inject Henry with the sickness, forcing him to finally reveal the truth. Henry knows if he is given the illness, the vaccine is useless so his facade will collapse.

Furthermore, the vaccine causes sterility, so the Others really need kids to replace those who have died and keep their society going.

Prediction 9 : Eko's commitment to stay on the "righteous path" will be tested, and when he finally loses it, and goes to war, watch out! He is going to kick some serious *#@*!. I cannot wait to see that episode.

Prediction 10 : It will turn out that there never was anything wrong with Locke's legs. In a future flashback, Locke will be in an accident of some kind (probably due to him losing his temper when Helen leaves him) and go to the hospital. When he wakes up, his legs will no longer work. Why? Dharma Initiative has given him a drug of some kind. On the flight, Locke is given the remedy by the flight crew, and wakes up "healed" on the island.

At some point, he is given the drug again on the island for awhile causing his legs to go numb again, but I am have no explanation for that yet. But there is something special about Locke that caused Dharma to want him on the island.

Prediction 11 : Henry Gale knows the survivors of flight 815 very well. He has been studying all of them for many years. He will use this knowledge to manipulate them.

??? As in "Brothers Karamazov" by Dostoevsky ?

http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0553...=0#reader-page
The back of the book jacket reads:
In 1880 Dostoevsky completed THE BROTHERS KARAMOZOV, the literary effort for which he had been preparing all his life. Compelling, profound, complex, it is the story of a patricide and of the four sons who each had a motive for murder: Dmitry, the sensualist; Ivan, the intellectual; Alyosha, the mystic; and twisted, cunning Smerdyakov, the bastard child. Frequent lurid, nightmarish, always brilliant, the novel plunges the reading into a sordid love triangle, a pathological obsession, and a gripping courtroom drama. But throughout the whole, Dosteoevsky searches for the truth - about man, about life, about the existence of God. A terrifying answer to man's eternal questions, this monumental work remains the crowning achievement of perhaps the finest novelist of all time.

The second son is "Ivan" which is John in Russian. That could be Locke the intellectual perhaps. Would Henry be the cunning and twisted Smerdyakov?

-----

In the episode Maternity Leave, Henry says "I can't get through five pages."
The first page is #7. At the bottom of the fifth page of the story page #11, it says:
"... all his life Karamozov liked to act the fool and assume all sorts of surprising roles; he would do so even when he had nothing to gain, indeed, even when it could be positively to his disadvantage"

I know she's a bit masculine, and could certainly use a spa day...but now she's a he? That's a reach even in MY imagination!
