Revision as of 02:06, 4 May 2006
- Played by Harold Perrineau
BEFORE THE CRASH
- Construction worker, sketch artist
- Brutal car accident resulted in long hospital recovery
- Ex-girlfriend Susan used accident to gain full custody of their son Walt
- Got custody of his son back when Susan died from a rare blood disorder
- Afraid he can't take care of Walt by himself
- Took Vincent for his son to make him happy
ON THE ISLAND
- Befriended Sun, which made her husband, Jin, jealous
- Was the first to know that Sun could speak English
- Envious of his son Walt's friendship with Locke
- Saved Walt from attack by a Polar Bear with the help of Locke
- Finally bonded with his son over box of drawings and letters to Walt that his ex-girlfriend had kept hidden
- Built raft, but Walt burns it to remain on the island together
- Built and launched a second raft, only to have his son, Walt, kidnapped several miles from shore
- After drifting back ashore with Sawyer, he was captured by the tail section survivors, who include Ana-Lucia Cortez and Libby
- When released from the pit, he runs into jungle looking for Walt only to be convinced to come back by Mr. Eko and Jin
- With Locke's help rescues Walt from Polar Bears
- Communicated with someone who may have been Walt through the Station 3 Computer
- Locked Locke and Jack in the arsenal and then ran off apparently following instructions from the computer
- Re-appeared from "the forbidden zone" when Jack and Kate went out to propose a prisoner trade with The Others
- It's too early to tell if The Others released Michael from captivity or if he found Jack and Kate on his own
- He is returned to the hatch by Jack carrying him over his shoulder and accompanied by Kate.
- During recovery tells Jack, Locke, and Kate about claiming to find the hiding place of The Others and of another hatch.
- After party leaves hatch to get guns, he asks Ana-Lucia about who is in the gun locker. Tells her he is willing to kill the false Henry Gale if she can't. Ana-Lucia hands over the gun and the comboination to the gun locker.
- He shoots Ana-Lucia once in the chest and is suprised by Libby whom he shoots twice in the stomach.
- He opens the gun locker, stands in front of the false Henry Gale and presumably shoots himself in the arm.
- He is show standing in the gun locker with a sling.
Theories
- Probably was not being held by The Others, as implied by Zeke's comment in The Hunting Party: "Don't worry about Michael. He's not gonna find us."
- The previews for the next episode show Michael claiming that he found the hiding place of The Others. So Zeke was either wrong, or lied. They may have captured Michael, that would explain why his trail went cold at that spot. (Or Michael could be lying about finding the Others, but why?)
- He has twice returned from from attempting to find the others. Perhaps, he met them both times. He has the same opionion of the the button as Faux Henry (It is a joke/ It is not what you think). Michael will betray the survivors to get back to Walt (Just my theory)
- He is presumably brainwashed by The Others in an attempt to free the false Henry Gale to save Walt.
Connections outside the show
- In the English epic poem Paradise Lost by John Milton, Michael commands the army of angels loyal to God against the rebel forces of Satan. Armed with a sword from God's armory, he bests Satan in personal combat, wounding his side.
- Is told by Sawyer on the raft that he has the patience of a saint, St Michael along with St George is the patron of chivalry, the Talmud tradition rendered his name as meaning "who is like El (God)"
