Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Ah, so Eko flashes in the black smoke.

Here's what I'm thinking: the black-smoke-monster-"security-system" thingie has, as far as we know, only spared Locke and Eko, of the people who it has confronted.

Maybe what the images are is, the black-smoke-monster shows people their ugliest, most monstrous aspects (while with Mr. Eko it wasn't taken literally, showing the absolute worst things he did, the idea that it's like a flashback machine is what I mean, and it flashed back to Mr. Eko's ugly past), and only the people who are strong and/or crazy enough to face and accept their own ugliness are spared.

The show-no-fear theory of surviving weird shit on a fucked-up island, if you will.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ooh! I like that theory, Tep.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Now I want to see Eko smack the smoke monster on the nose and tell it to quit scaring people.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Has it actually killed anyone but Weiss, Not Weiss?

Did the smoke kill him? I thought it was something else. The mechanosaur.

I thought the smoke was what the mechanosaur really was. It made a similar noise and ripped up the jungle, didn't it?

Well, they have the option to go that way if they want, but it never occurred to me that it wasn't the mechanosaur. Heh.

So, anyone wanna bet one of the things in the smoke was a spinning red ball?
