John Doe Forums

*major spoiler*

Can anyone confirm what the writers actually had planned in some kind of script for the future episodes? I've been to the wikipedia entry on John Doe and nothing seems to concrete there. You'd think a writer or producer someone has commented on what they had planned for the future. I'm also unclear on whether the plan was for that to really be Digger, or, as at least someone has mentioned, it was supposed to be a look-alike. The look-alike idea would seem really cheezy, so I'm hoping that wasn't the plan. It however seems pretty unplausible that the Phoenix leader could have been Digger. That group seemed pretty active and Digger sure was at the bar he ran an awful lot. (Digger would have been gone for long stretches of time from the bar to be overseas etc.)

 *Potential Spoiler*

I read somewhere that it wasn't actually Digger, but a member of the Phoenix group that had been surgically altered to look like Digger.

I will try and find the link.

If it was Digger then the reason he was at the bar evertime we saw him there is that he was researching John. At the same time they would have known things like that Teresa n Micheal were trying to contact John because he told Digger absolutely everything.

It would have been interesting to see how they would have made it work if stocking cap actually turned out to be Digger, and it seems like if it wasn't then someone wrote the scene without thinking about how to back it up so instead they made it a look a like, seems kind of like a way out of a twist they realized wasn't supportable. idk, Digger's past is so unknown that it wasn't out of realm of possibility but it still threw everyone for a loop, and garenteed we would have been there for the season premiere if it had ever come (grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr).

Sad for John if Digger was the Phoenix leader but it did make sense..

He got close to John to try and find out if he knew anything, he was only ever photographed twice (I think) so he didn't spend much time physically with the phoenix organisation (which is how he could be at the bar all the time) and he did suddenly seem to know a lot of spy type stuff in later episodes and explained that by saying he was special ops...
