He was bonkers and she wanted to kill Ben and he needed to release Ben
for his son.

Thanks for the help, you two. The conversation between Ben and Michael
in last night's episode is chillingly clear now.

The Others wanted Ben back and dispatched Michael (after they took
some blood....) on an errand to git him back. Oh, and Michael was
given a list (damn, all those annoying lists!) that had the names of
Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Hugo on it.

The people on the list were people the Others wanted. Michael would
free Ben and bring back some Losties.. and he and Walt would be sent
home.

Michael took it upon himself to shoot Ana-Lucia and Libby to make
Ben's disappearance look more plausible, to effect Ben's "escape" and
get the Losties riled up to hunt down Ben ... that way, Michael could
coerce Jack, Kate, Sawyer and Hugo to go find Ben (and Walt).

Of course, the real reeason is that the actress is a drunk driver and
so she was ditched due to her likely going to jail.

And as Tom pointed out, The Others didn't order Micheal to kill Ana
Lucia. He did that by himself. Personally I think Micheal just didn't
like her and was still mad at her for killing Shannon, not to metion they
just plain didn't like each other. I think subconsciously he just took
the opportunity to kill her. Libby on the other hand was a pure accident,
although he probably still would had had to kill her to keep her quiet
anyway.

this makes me mad. The fact that Libby and Ana Lucia died because of crazy Michael. i had to take a break from the episode because i was so frustrated.

It helps to know the context in which these events took place. The challenge is that "Lost" never made that context explicit; you had to figure it out, and it was cleverly disguised.

First understand that the rubbing out of Libby was arranged by Hugo. Hugo knew that Libby was close to figuring out who the real characters were, and who the doubles, so he sent her to get supplies. Hugo & MiKevin later played dumb about their arrangement -- something that went on a lot on "Lost" as characters had to hide their conspiracies. Why Ana Lucia was killed, I'm not sure, but it might've had to do with suspicion that she would spill the beans about the plot, as in her line, "I can't do this any more." Remember how in another scene and another setting, Hugo asked Jack, "You're not thinking of...talking...are you?"

Explain this more in depth?? Real characters? Doubles?

[doc...@gmail.com]

You can follow it as I solved it over the years at http://users.bestweb.net/~robgood/teach . If you're in a hurry, read the first couple of entries, then skip to the last few.

In brief, "Lost" was a viewer-solvable cloak-&-dagger mystery disguised as sci-fi/fantasy. The only actual sci-fi in it was Faraday's machine which could deal brain damage, like a blow to the head, resulting in unconsciousness & then a stupor in which a character could be made to believe that, for instance, s/he'd traveled in time.

The precis of the plot is on the "index card" on the main page. The business magnate was Alvar Hanso, derived from the character Ralph A. Voss on "Department S" in the episode "One of Our Aircraft Is Empty". The reference to Hamlet was the device adopted from it by the makers of "Lost", the play-within-the-play, called "The Mouse Trap" by Hamlet, which on "Lost" was used to clue viewers in to the plot while also functioning as in "Hamlet", whereby one character could fish for reaction from others to determine whether a certain double was only unwittingly or wittingly engaged in identity theft. This resulted in miniature versions of "Lost" playing out within "Lost". For instance, someone says he's Henry Gale, a retired mining magnate whose air flight via balloon resulted in a crash, but it turns out he didn't crash at all but stole the identity of someone else who ostensibly did.

Eventually we were shown the wreckage of the real Oceanic 815, which nobody survived. That being the case, who'd you think THESE people were? "They're not the survivors; they thought they were," as the season 2 promo said.

Get the idea?

I think this is a reach. Just my opinion

[doc...@gmail.com]

That's everyone's opinion except mine. If I hadn't known Damon Lindelof for years before "Lost" and someone else had told it to me, I'd have a lot of trouble with it. However, if I found out that person had known him, my opinion would probably change.
