Along with the big reveal I’ve been waiting for, TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello is saying that we’re going to be having a lot of questions answered including who Ben’s spy on the freighter is and more importantly who the remaining members of the Oceanic 6 are. (link) I also have it on good authority that the captain of the freighter will also finally be revealed during tomorrow’s episode. That’s a lot of bombshells and information in just one episode, but I guess it makes up for last week's slow episode.
Ausiello also has it “on good authority that Nestor Carbonell has inked a deal to reprise his role as ageless island dweller Richard in at least one of this season’s final five episodes.” (link) That’s very exciting news as I know lots of us have been dying to find out why Richard Alpert looks to have stopped aging, while Ben has obviously kept growing since coming to the island as a little boy. There also seemed to be some tension between Ben and the rest of the Others including Richard, so it will be interesting to see where the Lost writers steer that aspect of the story.
