I'm probably wrong, but I'd need to re-listen to hear a bit more of
Michael. Ever since his arm got messed up, he wasn't the same.
Again, I 110% see exactly your point. I'm trying to fish for a few reasons to stand on my own just because an off-screen (well... not sure what'd you call it) death doesn't seem very We're Alive. Have we had a character of some importance die in the background yet?
Scratch got a death moment, compared to
Latch and
Durai, he wasn't too big. I'm a Lostie, so it might just be my nature to second-guess any death that's not in your face.
Marcus gone or not is still going to result in
Gatekeeper having his rule.
The Colony did, inevitably, result in Michael's newfound confidence. We can both agree to that. As brought up in
We're Not Dead, what particular motives would Gatekeeper have to pursue
the Tower? Marcus would be the only one who could fuel a charge, in my eyes (ears?). After his monologue in part 2, I thought he'd have some more importance in an eventually confrontation.
