OK, so my take on Locke facing the monster:
- I applaud the theory that the monster is "fear", and he has no fear. But I question the physical appearance of it. Trees are moving, ground is shaking, there's noise.
- I believe that the scary show paradigm might kick in. Locke has seen the monster, and now he's "changed". Dead eyes, or the ability to see more than the others.
There is so much that is great about this show, I can barely contain myself when it's on. I've recuruited two more households. :)
