Default Another bad decision by Locke?

Locke has a history of making the wrong decision. Thats how he ended up paralyzed. Anyway, from what we learned from Hurley last night it seems that he made another bad decision to return to the Dharma barracks. If you think about it, it makes since to NOT return to the barracks.

If the people from the freighter were there to find the Dharma folks then the last place you would want to be is at the Dharma camp. It appears that Locke's decision to return there is a bad one. The only problem is that the Lostees don't know the history behind Ben and the others and don't realize it's a bad decision.

Locke's life is full of bad decisions.

I would not follow him to lunch let alone to someplace that is supposidly safe.

Locke has made some horrible desicion, some leaving him in a wheel chair and with a stolen kidney, but there must be something to his latest desicon to lead the Lost people away from the freighter people. I would not go with jack becuase of what Charlie wrote on his hand. And yet I would hesistate to go with Locke to the bunkers because the frieghter people would look there first......On the other hand BEN said he would rather go with Locke, so I would imagine he knows more about the situation (people coming to the island).

To sum it up I fully do not trust anyone, but thats what makes it wickedly intriguing.

I think Locke knows more about whats going on than what he's putting on because no one has let him explain himself. Also Ben knows a lot too and the only reason I even remotely believe Ben is because he told Rossieu (sorry can't spell her name) to take their daughter far away from here. Ben may be a bad guy but he does love his daughter and so I think these freighter people might really be bad after all. And I DO know that Locke does have everyone's best interest in mind.

Yeah, Locke may have everyones best interest in mind but he also doesn't want to leave either. He'll do anything to stay there.

We know it was a bad decission because of the conversation Hurley had with Jack at the Mental Hospital. Hurley said that it was a bad decission to go with Locke. He said it as Jack was leaving the Gym.

Keep in mind that Ben went with Locke for what ever reason. If Ben was following orders from Jacob that makes since why he went with them. Keep in mind that both Locke and Ben are listening to Jacob so is it really a surprise why Ben went with Locke. I mean, if Jacob told both of them the same thing then you can expect them to do the same thing.

I just wonder what will happen to them at the camp and what made following Locke the bad decision?

I agree with you in the first instance! Locke is a potenital saviour, he does know more than he lets on. But with regards to Ben I wouldnt trust him as far as I could through him
But anyway want I really wanted to say was that, is Alex definately Bens daughter, I know he's said so. But I thought Rousseau was already pregnant when she got on the island.
Can anyone shed any light on this??

I dont think we should assume that the people on the boat work for Dharma because if they did, wouldnt they know how to get to the island and not need a fix on the satellite phone in order to do so. I mean Dharma has been dropping supplies on the island so i assume they can fly a helicopter over the island.

That's a good point. But they are interested in the island though.

About Lock. Yes he has made bad decisions. And he probably will in the next 47 episodes over the next three years. He is a good person. A great person. He is naive sometimes, and is foolish for trusting the wrong people. Is Lock the man? Hell yeah. He has everyones safety in mind, even Jack who tried to kill him. Booo Jack, no longer my #2 fav heheh. John can't kill anyone, he's too good of a person. Even if something will happen at the barracks, I still believe John is the right person to follow, and I would follow him because he has the best understanding of the island compared to anyone while having honesty and caring for others above most of the people. Ben might know more about the island, but no way is he honest or caring about the others.

Hurleys statement about having made a mistake by following John... well hes right, because John wants to stay and Hurley wants to leave, so for him Johns decisions to keep people on the island are not the right ones. We'll have to wait and see how he screwed up again . Awesome show. Lock rocks.
