If you could insert one f-bomb into a line of dialogue from the whole series, where would you put it?
"This isn't just a bear. It's a fuckin' polar bear."
OR
"Did that bird just say my fuckin' name?"
OR
"WALT! WAAAALT! FUCK! WAAAAAALT!!"
OR
"Don't fucking tell me what I can't do."

Michael really is one of the most punchable characters.

He helped Ben escape the hatch in exchange for Walt, and they were allowed to leave on a boat. There's another subplot in season 4 (I think) where returns on a freighter sent by Charles Widmore to find the island. Had something to do with him being estranged from Walt back home and he can help redeem himself by sabotaging the mission. I forget exactly what happens to him to conclude that. Walt appears in a few other episodes as well, about 3 feet taller.

He was pumping liquid nitrogen onto the bomb to give everyone time to get off the boat.

Also, Sawyer would just say a lot of ... "Fuck.". Just "Fuck."

You may be the only person since the inception of television participating and paying attention to what is on it. I count a show as "watched" if I slept for less than 50% of it.

The entire Walt/Michael storyline is product of its time. Too many episodes a season lead everything being too bloated.
