That's certainly possible, of course, but I think we need to step back
and take another look at what role Abbadon is playing in all this.
It's all good to think he's setting things up for Widmore and company,
given the obvious evidence, but going back to that scene with Naomi
where he emphasizes getting the team in and out with no one hurt, his
motives seem a bit different from what Keamy seems to be doing for
Widmore...
RWG (it could be that Abbadon has his own motives that are different
from Widmore's)
