Its an interesting theory, one that I'm not sure I can fully agree with yet. That flashback theory makes sense. But if Kojima goes all Fight Club on us, I can't express how disappointed I will be. That's such a lame cop out, and this coming from a guy who loves post-moderist films.

Then he'd get captured.

It would start all over again.

That's pretty shortsighted, Jim. If Chico came back, you don't think Kojima would have anything better to do with him than have him get captured again?

For all we know he may have a larger role in the overall plot than we think. Or, maybe he died off-screen which is pretty cheap and uninteresting.
