Subject: Yes Ben would have twigged

I like the idea of Charlotte showing up when Alex disappeared...as a replacement, because the show is based on such symmetries, but now that Ben is off the island it doesn't seem that interesting to have his daughter there.

And why would Widmore have sent her?

... then there's a good chance Widmore doesn't know who she is. After all, Ben gave a pretty detailed factual background on Charlotte in "Confirmed Dead", one that was passed onto him via Michael. If she is Ben and Annie's daughter, someone went to a lot of trouble to disguise that fact, and I'm willing to bet Widmore has no idea who she *really* is. Then again, how coincidental is it that Ben's daughter just "happens" to be part of the crack team of superscientists Widmore sends to the Island?

But if her mother was Dharma he must have known!

Do you think that Annie died giving birth to her but they could save the baby and Ben managed to get his daughter off the island without Widmore knowing it? But he would have known he had a daughter then...and he would have kept an eye on her. Or did Dharma saved her but lied to Ben like Roslin lied to Sharon and Helo ? :- )

Was she even born on the island like Aaron?

Perhaps we don't have to take what she said literally but metaphorically.

Let's not forget that Miles hears the dead...

I just assumed it was one of the dead that told him (mayhaps Danielle, or Alex?)! My personal against-all-odds theory is that she's one of the "Hostiles", but through some odd set of circumstances she left the Island decades ago, reinvented herself as Charlotte Lewis (maybe even taking the place of the real Charlotte?) and went about that way. That might go some way to explaining how, at only 25, she's one of the world's leading anthropologists. Most people in that line of work have barely finished phDs and so forth at 25!
