I don't know why but I can't stop laughing at this.

There's a certain comic book villain finality to it.

The actual number of original employees among 'The Others' is small, perhaps only 5 or 10, and the ones who've been among the 815 crew (Ethan, Gale, that guy from the tail) might simply be castaways who've been put in michael's poition - held hostage somehow and then turned against new strandees.

I think Gale is a lot more powerful than has been let on.

His name was Goodwin. I only point it out cause I think it may be relevant.

bison,

While Ethan, Gale, and Goodwin might not have been original Dharma employees, I don't see much reason to think they were just strandees being blackmailed into working for The Others. I mean, Ethan was working in the medical hatch in Claire's flashbacks, and Goodwin seemed to know an awful lot about The Others and spoke as if he was one of them.

I agree with this. Why else would they send Michael in to get him back? If he meant nothing, I'm sure they'd just say [censored] him.

If he is so powerful why would they send him to do something so dangerous, instead of some scrub? I think he was telling the truth when he said something along the lines of "they'll never give you Walt, I failed, I'm already dead...".

By posting this thread over a day before the episode airs you are accomplishing 2 things:

1.) Proving to everyone what an incomperable attention whore you are.
2.) Making it so when the episode actually starts everyone will have to wade through 2 pages of [censored] beore they get to anything relevant. I mean, come on - did you really need the credit for the finale thread that bad? There were plenty of other threads that we could have hypothesized in without you dumbing-up this one.

SO ANYWAYS,

Since were here, I would like to bring up 2 things and hear everyones opinion.

1.) When Gale was being held prisoner, he told Locke that he was already dead and that "he" didnt tolerate failure (or something along those lines. Locke said "whos he? the man with the beard" and gale sort of laughed and said that the man with the beard was nobody. Any opinions on who "he" might be?

2.) in the same conversation, locke said "god only knows" when saying something about the island. gale replied, "god cant see this island, just like noone else can see this island" (or something to that effect). Is this solid proof that the island is in some way created or hidden, and if so - how?

Well you really don't know what he was sent for actually. He lied about everything, so he could have very well lied about that. Also, he's obviously not dead as he was signed to be a season regular for next year.

The purpose of Michael's mission is not at all dependent on Gale actually being freed.
