I hate to even think this but what if the monk is Allister? I never ever thought so until yesterday when Sheridan had her dream about running through the catacombs. It looked an awful lot like the passage the monk took whitney down, and then who pops up down there... Big Al even though it was a dream. That's a clue how Sher may play a role even Al may play a role, Plus in the nursing home in bed Al looked awfully plastic and fake, then Luis recognized the monk as familiar, when was he in Rome before? That makes it seem like it's a old character, but it keeps saying new one thing I know though is the monk is a man, but is it really Al and if it is why not reveal all the dirt in harmony at a party and have his goons get the chalice?

in the spoilers that someone posted it said that sheridan will have a big part in solving the vendetta mystery even though she will be in harmony...i think it has something to do with what happened when she was a little girl and the body under the bloody sheet. we know that it wasnt martin katherin or rachael so who was it? is the alistair we know the real alistair or was the body under that sheet all those years ago the real alistair?

Sher Sher could of "killed" Alistair's brother thinking that it was him. Maybe she saw Alistair or his brother abusing/raping her mother and stabbed him to protect her. Alistair went through a dramatic personality change during that time. wasn't he a loving person, at least with Rachel

yeah i personally think that it was the real alistair under the sheet but he wasnt really dead and the one we know as alistair is the evil brother. but what was buried under the gazebo then?

How could Alister be fake in the Hospital, when they ran an MRI on him that said his condition did not change and that he was still in a Coma? That is alot for even Alister to do, to get a look alike and make him comatose to fool people. I mean, how would that be possible... An MRI is a magnetic scan of your whole body including your brain, so whoever is in the room must be in a COMA

Another thing . Today Sheridan got a call from the nursing home from a nurse asking if they could try a new medication for him... I am thinking that that new Medication might just bring him out of the COMA

My first guess was that it was Alister, But then I got thinking that maybe it could be Rachel since we have not seen her around lately and not to mention they just revealed her, and for what? They really dint make a big deal about her character yet so why did they reveal her, she should have come back to harmony to be playing a big part in the show, So I am thinking that she could possibly be the monk.

Well I do believe that whoever is in the hospital room is not Alistair. He looked plastic and for all the real fans the would know that 1. Al can do anything to anyone at anytime 2.He had himself disguised as Charlie 3. If he was hurt he could have put the wheels in motion a while ago. Plus MRI is a test that doesn't require blood work anyone in that bed could of had the test done. That and the call to Sher means nothing he could have anyone laid up taking the test for him. Someones in the coma but it doesn't mean it's Al.

A MRI would show brain activity not necessarily coma or drug induced coma...they had Sheridan going there for a reason..to throw us off that the Monk is Alister??...AND who is the person outside the door listening and watching as the nurse calls Sheridan??

alistair has had every doctor's diagnosis changed. who's to say these doctors and nurses aren't being paid off. i remember alistair in the hospital thinking to himself and laughing to himself while acting like in a coma. just because the nurse said there was an mri and said that he's in a coma doesn't mean it's true.

In the begining of Alisters COMA state, you could "hear" his thoughts.... now, he is just a veggie on a tray.... seems like the real Alister got switched sometime from his original hospital room to his present digs in the nursing home. Remember, he had someone changed to look like Luis, right down to his DNA... so now he's done the same thing to himself and is out to get revenge.... even on Fancy, since he feels that she betrayed him with Noah. What do you think ??

I can see that being possible that's something he would/could do. But I really hope it's better than Al being the monk.

What if the reporter Theresa meets to give her info on Gwen and Rebecca is the monk also

At one time there was a flashback that showed Sheridan as a little girl and the person she was shown stabbing was definitely a woman.

That's what I've been saying because the monk has been saying how all these people are coming to Rome. I think he's luring Theresa there under the pretence that she will find the evidence against Gwen. I heard that Michael Sabatino is playing the Tabloid Reporter for 10 episodes, but I think he will be the one playing the Monk in the end. My guess is he is Alister and Rachel's son. Alister Crane Jr. That would explain why there are possibly two Alisters?
