Debate Fever: Ben and Widmore go at it too!
Ever wonder how a Ben Linus and Charles Widmore town hall faceoff would be like?

Alvar Hanso: Good evening, and welcome to tonight’s debate. This will be a town hall style event, with past and present members of the Lost universe on hand in tonight’s audience. They have submitted questions prior to tonight’s event, and I have hand-selected a few to go before our two candidates tonight. So, without further ado, I give you Charles Widmore and Benjamin Linus.
- (The two enter from opposite sides of the stage, smiling warmly and waving at the crowd. The crowd politely applauds but mostly looks like they want to kill at least one of the two men currently on stage. The two men shake hands while smiling widely, with Ben pretending to smash Widmore’s skull in with his Baton of Death. We can see Widmore mouth, “Ha ha, you can’t kill me, you glorious bastard,” and the two take their places at the podium.)
Hanso: Each candidate will have a short amount of time to answer the questions placed before them. As moderator, I have the right to ask my personal question first, which is this: what the HELL have you two been doing to my Island?
Ben: Well, Alvar, I think the question’s a bit misleading. Just because your ancestor managed to crash upon its shores some centuries ago doesn’t mean you can lay claim to it.
Widmore: And personally speaking, I’m pretty sure it’s mine, not yours, Mr. Moderator. Granted, I’m biased, but that’s what happens after you’re forced to turn a donkey wheel and get banished from the one place in this universe you felt like you belonged.
