Welcome to the LOST EXPLAINED FAQ. This video series addresses Frequently Asked Questions about LOST and drills down into the specifics of the show. The aim is to answer smaller, more complex questions that deserve their own explorations and deep dives.
In this FAQ, we explore the likely backstory of the real Henry Gale and how he came to be on the island, who killed and buried him, and how his story ties into that of Benjamin Linus. Other questions explored and explained in this video include a discussion of whether or not Ben got caught in Rousseau's trap on purpose; what his original plan was; why Rousseau seemingly didn't remember him, even though they first met back in 1988; and the meaning of the show's recurring references to 'The Wizard of Oz'. Does Ben really always have a plan? Or is he just winging it?
