Reply #60: Sorry, that's as much as you're going to get

[MorningGlow]

Lindelof and Cuse have said repeatedly that they're not going to give out every single teeny tiny detail, that some things are going to be left in the cloud of mystery. So if you don't like that idea, bail now. I mean it--don't watch the finale--because you're going to think of something that they don't answer and then you're going to be pissed that they didn't.

I wanted to know where Greek Mama Demigod came from, but I realize I'm not going to get that answer. I wanted to know who the twins' real mother was, but I realize that didn't matter.

MIB's name--in the weekly post-ep analysis on E! Online, it said that he does have one and they might reveal the MIB's name later. But really, does it matter?

I'm pretty sure Greek Mama Demigod started to say "thank you" (came out "thank--") before her conversation with MIB when she did get all the words out.

"Not speaking" is just a caution against letting the MIB talk you out of it--in other words, if he talks to you, you're going to end up not killing him because he's broken down your defenses. A total stranger who's never spoken to you is easier to kill than someone who "becomes someone" by engaging you in conversation.

The cave--again, that's all you're going to get. It's the Source. What more can be said?
