Michael…. what he is up to.
I wanted to add to my speculation.
What if Michael has made a deal with the Others, but he has agreed to bring back, or trade, one of the survivors for his son.
Now, we know that it won’t ever happen because The Others want Walt for whatever reason.
But, I could easily see that The Others have convinced Michael that if he brings back baby Aaron then they will trade for Walt. We know that in reality they want both children, but they have made this deal with Michael to trick him into bringing Aaron.
The writers say we will see a “very different Michael” that comes back so nothing will probably stop him. Not even one of the survivors with a gun? Who has a gun in their possession? Remember who - the trek into the jungle to find Henry’s crash site? Could The Others have armed Michael knowing that the survivors have guns?
Thoughts?
