Do you need a fresh start? Looking for a new career path? Join the Dharma Initiative and you too can become an island janitor! At least that’s what Roger Linus did as we learn about who Ben Linus really is and how he came to be the leader of the Others. Join Mike, Kory and Steven as they take a look at Season 3, Episode 20 of LOST and hope to be the chosen ones able to hear Jacob’s voice in the cabin in the woods!

On the 68th episode, Mike, Kory and Steven review and discuss the season 3 episode, “Man Behind The Curtain”! Picking up from where Locke arrives back at the Others’ camp, Locke has requested to be taken immediately to Jacob. Ben obliges and the two head toward Jacob’s cabin. But when only Locke hears Jacob, Ben does the unthinkable. Meanwhile, back at the beach, the tape of Juliet’s “treacherous plan” is played for all to hear. Flashbacks show Ben’s birth and how he came to be the leader of the Others. Mike, Kory and Steven also take a look at the pop culture references and give a glimpse into the next episode!
