Welcome to the LOST EXPLAINED FAQ. This video series addresses Frequently Asked Questions about LOST and drills down into the specifics of the show. The aim is to answer smaller, more complex questions that deserve their own explorations and deep dives.

In this FAQ, we explore the motives and plans of Charles Widmore, who was not always the easiest character to track throughout the show. What were his motivations? What was he trying to achieve with the freighter? Where do his loyalties truly lie? We shall explore why he did what he did throughout the show and answer questions such as: what was the true purpose of the Kahana mission? Did Widmore specifically order the murder of Alex? Did Keamy really plan to kill everyone on the island? Did Jacob meet with island leaders before Ben? Was Widmore telling the truth about his motives? And many more!
