It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Our wings are not tired.

So the 14 are
Boone
Charlie
Claire
Hurley
Jack
Jin
Kate
Locke
Michael
Sawyer
Sayid
Shannon
Sun
Walt

I don't think they will kill the baby, but more likely the baby will mysteriously vanish. I certainly get a bad feeling about Hurley from the biggest comment, but maybe Jack?

Check out the pyramids!!!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I think circle of life means the baby is born the same episode that someone big dies.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

From a narrative perspective, I think killing Jack leaves a bigger vacuum than killing Hurley. A lot of Hurley's funcitons could be taken over by someone else, but I don't see anyone else stepping up to be the counterpoint to Locke (as much as I like Sayid, I don't see him filling that leader role very well).

I don't think they'll kill the baby.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I don't think they'll kill the baby.

I'm not sure. On the one hand, this show hasn't shown anywhere near that level of balls yet, but on the other hand, babies are a PITA to work with on set. (So maybe it'll be born and then kidnapped.)

Heh, imagine if Claire had a KINGDOM style birth.

That would be AWESOME.

They've already got a dog...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

But if the baby is kidnapped, isn't more or less as good as dead, what with the nothing to feed it? Unless there's another new mother on the island.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'd assume that anyone kidnapping a baby for their nefarious uses has feeding plans in mind. You don't need a new mother to get a baby fed.

Of course nefarious might include sacrifice. That'd be cool.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I am having Romulus/Remus visions. Or, hey! that dude in Greek myth raised by a bear. We know the island has polar bears; we just have to hope that one of them is lactating.

Well, the psychic didn't say "another person ", did he?
