So, any ideas? How do they kill the Smoke Monster?

last night, nearly all shots fired at him went straight through/no effect, but there was at least one that had a ricochet. Not really sure what brand of invincible he is...

the best kind: nigh.

[happywaffle]

mmmmm, nigh.

Easy. He's a genie. Put him in the bottle. Done.

[Asaf]

A bottle large enough that the island can serve as a cork.

A bottle large enough that the island can serve as a cork.

And preferably made of something other than fragile, fragile glass

Yeah, see, folks, Arthur here gets what I'm talkin' about: The Man in Black is gonna have to either die or rule victorious over planet Earth. There's no more guardianship. No more trapping him on the Island, cause he'll find a way out. That's the whole point of the protagonists crashing on the Island. They're special. They're not like all the other castaways for hundreds of years prior. These are the people whose destiny it is to finally, finally, win or lose against Evil.

Personally, when I try to predict how one might defeat The Locke-ness Monster, I fail. I'm afraid the writers' only course available is to bring in some deus ex machina at the last minute which will defeat him... maybe some esoteric old fail-safe that the castaways learn about in the final episode. The problem with that, narrative-wise, is that the audience waits through six entire seasons to find out a solution that we never could have guessed, so the anticipation for the nature of the final face-off is non-existent. What that means is, they'd better make up for that missing anticipation with a raucous-awesome final showdown.

Thoughts, anybody?

Desmond.

He's the key to everything.

Also I like his hair the best. Well among the characters still living anyway.

Ditto. Desmond sacrifices himself to kill the monster. And he knows that all is well in the
sideways world. So it's all good.

OR

Desmond makes a big sacrifice to contain smokie, Jack stays on the island, and everyone else is killed.

All characters live and die...

I just thought of something.

Did they just kill off the remaining minority characters on the show? At least, in the main timeline? Cause' that's interesting. No, wait, Hurley is Mexican. And Richard is Latino. Okay.

And what were all those flaming arrows coming outta nowhere in season 5?
