Why can't John Locke kill Anthony Cooper? Why does Ben try to make him? What makes Sawyer able to commit this murder, and what impact does it have on him? Why has Jack seemingly abdicated his leadership role on the beach? We get into all of it. And Nestor Carbonell, who played Richard Alpert, returns to The Hatch to talk about Richard's motivations and how he approached the character's eternal youth.
