Sometimes I feel bad knowing that so many people are waiting for my analysis and I'm delaying it so that I can go out to the bars or just be a bum and watch TV - but what are you gonna do? I really wish I could get them out on Thursday mornings, but due to work and stuff - it's just not possible.

My name is Joe, and I am 25 years old and am from good 'ol Nashville, TN. I stumbled upon this fantastic blog last year when you posted that ever controversial pic of Henry Gale's smiley face balloon. I have been obsessed with your blog ever since!!

I suspect it went something like this. <BR/>Klugh, arriving just moments before our rescue team (possibly checking up on the status of the communications repair) realized they weren't alone. Also realizing they were out gunned at the moment. Klugh initially wants to end the confrontation passivly and makes a quick drama and cover story for Mikhail to feed Locke, Sayid and Kate. Then hides out in the basement. A story that is similer to what our Survivors have been told, not to cross the "imaginary" line. Sayid of course doesn't fall for it (and I love Nadia the cat giving up Klugh's hiding spot) and provokes Mikhail into giving up the obvious ruse.<BR/><BR/>Klugh is dead IMHO. And I think Mikhail will sacrifice himself next show and not be pushed like some suggest.<BR/><BR/>The Purge, Hostiles, The Incident I assume are all connected. We know Procedures changed after this.<BR/>Possibly this is when the Flame was wired to guard against new incursions. Note, The Flame station (like fire on the gameshow Survivor) was extremely important. It acted as a "lighthouse" for incoming vessles, was also the link to the mainland, and was also the coordination point for food drops; Dharma or not, food is food. I think Mikhail knew about the self-destruct sequence and I think he was still just trying to play it cool with Locke. Weather or not the Chess game can really cheat or if someone like Candle is behind the game seems unlikely. But maybe as unlikely as Eko or the Island guiding Locke to destroy the station. Who knows? <BR/><BR/>Perhaps Smokey is a product of the Purge. Similer to Star Trek TNG, the tar pit creature in the episode where Tashi Yar was killed .
