Thanks Coacocd and Rwsrules, for the great help with the questions about Nikki. She actually isn't my main suspect.

Before the show started, when I saw the cast and the words "wedding planner" under Maggie's photo, I immediately picked her as the killer. I mean, how can you not? She has plenty of access to everything, and knowledge about most everybody. She's known all the principals since they were children. We rarely know where she is, or what she's up to. Etc., etc.

But ... an old post here by Colleenlover totally made me change my mind. For the last 4 weeks or so, my prime suspect has been Henry.

Right now, the question for me is no longer whether it is Henry, but who is his accomplice (or accomplices). The main ones in my list are Nikki and/or the gardener. (Could the gardener be Wakefield?) My alternates are Maggie and/or Jimmy.

To those thinking that it had to be only one killer, I'd say that Henry's accomplice(s) would not need to murder anyone. They'd just be in charge of informing and facilitating things for Henry to do the deeds.

We've gotten the tiniest, fleeting comments suggesting that, when they were children, the one to fear was not JD but Jimmy. I'm thinking that Henry's a "brilliant psycho" who as a child loved to pull life-threatening pranks (and much worse). He could also have a social class inferiority complex, exacerbated by the way in which his employer Wellington treated him. During his past stays in the island, Henry might have already killed or harmed other people. Nikki could be the girl that has been secretly next to Henry all the way, since childhood, sharing his social class complex, his taste for pranks and his dreams of violent revenge.

And is the story all really about Abby? I wonder. Here's something worth pondering about, in this connection: that repeated playing of the "ave maria" or holy Mary over Abby's phone, after some of the murders. Holy Mary = the virgin = Abby's virginity?

Remember that the flashback showed Abby telling Nikki that she was planning to lose her virginity with Jimmy, during camping? Was the death of Abby's mother's punishment for allowing Abby to go and have sex with Jimmy? Was there someone in the island who could not stand the idea of Abby having sex with anybody, and had to resort to murder or to an explosion to prevent it? ... And if so, would that be Henry or Wakefield or even Nikki (lesbian crush)?
