plus there was the whole priest having faith in God to the end thing - that is supposed to play into it as well - with God's intervention/help being another possibility - of course, leaving it up to the viewer to mull the possibilities rather than giving you any straight out answers...plus the fact that they were leading you to believe that the dreams were meant to keep her off the plane for her own/her families safety, then you realize it was all to lead her to the girl...
I thought it was well done - I like shows where they don't answer everything in this way , but I do get too frustrated with shows like "Lost" where it is too open ended and the answers lead you one way and then change on whim only to lead nowhere again and again, too manipulative and frustrating for me....don't get me wrong - I am not putting down "Lost" - or those who like it....I think it very well done and understand it's appeal...I have tried it a few times, but it just isn't my thing..
