Every sunday I would see a young boy waiting at the back of the church. And one day the boy confessed to me that he had beaten the dog to death with a shovel. He said the dog had bitten his babysister on the cheek. And he wanted to know wther he would come to hell for this.. I told him, that God would understand. That he would be forgiven.As long as he was sorry. But the boy did not care of forgiveness. He was only afraid that if he did go to hell, that dog would be there waiting for him. Mr.Eko
This was one of TVs best characters and they had planned so much for him!! He was one of my favorites! Then the goddamn actor decided he had to leave Hawaii because it was 'too hot'. REALLY??? You're from FUCKING NIGERIA MAN
Sadly, according to the writers of Lost, Mr. Eko had to leave the show because the actor left. He was supposed to go the whole time. Similarly, Michael Emerson was only supposed to play Ben Linus for a little while. He stayed the whole time.
"I ask for no forgiveness, Father, for I have not sinned. I have only done what I needed to do to survive. A small boy once asked me if I was a bad man. If I could answer him now, I would tell him that when I was a young boy... I killed a man to save my brother's life. I am not sorry for this, I am proud of this. I did not ask for the life that I was given, but it was given nonetheless, and with it... I did my best..."
@Lordi230 I know! I wish he accepted... did you know he also could have had been in the show longer. but the actor didn't really feel at home in Hawaii, so they killed him off? I wish he just stayed...
almost a year ago, i was having all sorts of health problems...sitting in the car on the way to the hospital i would play this song, and look out the window....it helped me get through the tough times, it made me feel like everything is going to be alright...whenever i am down now, i always come back to this song. this is my proof that music is healing. and oh yeah...i miss lost.
@TheJamiam Hmm... maybe. But Jack's relationship with his father was an ongoing struggle for him throughout the series, from the first episode with the white shoe to the last episode where it appeared again. Maybe he needed to truely come to terms with Christian before moving on?
@TheJamiam what everyone else said, but also Adwale something something something (i don't know his last name, it's complicated.) wanted heaps of cash to appear in the final ep. he was supposed to be in there as a priest with Yemi and Yemi was supposed to be there cos Eko was the most important thing to him. but Adwale got greedy and that was cut so no Eko and no Yemi. but Christian was always going to be the one that moves them on.
man Mr. Eko was such a great character - its too bad they couldnt bring him back for the final season. if theres one character who should've moved on with the other survivors, it was MR. EKO!
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want; He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters; He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
this theme has a redemptive quality about it and Eko apparently did redeem himself in the end.. I see 2 young boys walking off into the sunset arms around each other
WHY did they have to kill MR. Eko..gosh they always kill off my favorite characters..first Boone, Then Charlie, Mr,Eko and now they went off and killed Locke...=(
@Tflash13 Oops my memory was playing tricks. I just read an interview with the creators and apparently the actor didn't want to sign on for a long period of time, so it was agreed his appearance would be relatively brief.
Nigerian drug runner turned holy man, probably Lost's most dichotic persona. it's a shame the character Eko didn't last longer, for whatever reason. let's hope season 6 brings him back somehow, if only to see some jesus stick one last time
@Raicuparta No Michael made an appearance in an episode and so did rose in the end and if you buy the dvd collection for season 6 you get to see what happens to walt
@darrelincanada I was talking about the after life, sorry if I didn't make that clear. I saw the epilogue, and maybe that is the reason why Walt doesn't show up there, maybe he becomes the successor of Hurley and never dies? Of course that would be stupid because eventually he would have to die... And Michael was stuck in the Island.
@Raicuparta You mean the after life where they all gathered in the church.. why wasn't there anyafrican americans in the after life. Well rose was in the church and the reason she never appeared in the sideways reality is because ( and I am surmising here) her and bernard reamined on the island with Hugo and Ben. and they all died there and Dude michael was stuck on the island it is in the3rd or 4th last episode I think. As for walt i don't want to say and spoil it for you
@darrelincanada As I said, i've seen the epilogue, theres nothing you can spoil here. I mean I even explained that in my last comment, I guess you dind't even read it and just wrote that non sense response.
Excellent work on this and your other compilations.. I was just watching the beginning of season 3 and heard eko's theme, and I figured coming here to find it...
I'm waiting for all of the season's OST to come out to purchase them as a collection... Your compilation should be a part of that. A sort of thematic compilation as opposed to chronological.
Man I miss Eko.. he's been to hell and back and became the Island's moral compass in many ways....
