lovely episode. never been much of a sayid fan (although i never had anything against him) but this episode was good. haha omg poor sayid <3 he was totally manhandled! <3 not to mention young-ben was a bit of sayid-fanboy. haha

loved it when they had waited for the drug to work, and they were like "hey.." and sayid had a hard time focusing.lmao <3 yeah. it's the small things that amuse me.

and i'm also wondering why he was living so far away from the others..?? maybe because of the drugs? they didn't want it near the kids or something? O_o,

Is The Smoke monster eating that man!!
oh man this totally changes my perspective that possibly means sayid is actually not from Iraq!

Juliet said it was a runway... for the aliens.

Meridian, I do remember that. I'll have to rewatch those episodes to double check that it was for a runway, but I do remember them breaking rocks while they were prisoners of Juliet and Ben and that dude that was mean that kept wanting to kill Sawyer because Sun shot his woman. What was his name?

meridian, if that is so, I sure dont remember it.

Back in one of the earlier seasons, when Kate and Sawyer were captured and brought to the second island, didn't they work by digging and clearing rocks and stuff for a landing strip?

Why hasnt anybody mentioned how weird it was that there was a freaking landing strip on the island??? I have never heard anyone on any season mention people arriving on the island by plane, (not crashing)... It has always been by submarine, boat, or crash.

test..

He lives alone in a tent because he's a hippie, can't you tell? The drug is probably Sodium Amytal (truth serum -- not used by U.S. gov. but in other countries).

The book young Ben gives to Sayid was written by a man who claims he was under the apprenticeship of a self-proclaimed Yaqui Indian Sorcerer. Yaqui Indians live in TeePees. Was the book a referance to Larry the torturer setting up an alternate reality for Sayid or Ben?

he's also from Bladerunner

yeah iwondered that too. why would he be living by himself? could it be that he's too dangerous to live among others?

What's with the tent? Does this guy live there? Why not live in a little house like his other Dharma buddies?

good! i'm not losing my mind! well not as much anyway. i thought that was larry too and was looking for the cast list :)

The Russian text on the apartment building's doorway transliterates as "OLDCHEM PHARMACEUTICALS." I am not a speaker of Russian, but this does not seem to be the actual Russian word for pharmaceuticals... Traditional tea drinking in Russia and environs involved holding a sugarcube between your front teeth as you sipped the beverage.

Thoughts? Comments?

YES!! That's what I thought when I saw him. That is most deffinitely Larry.

First of all, there's a Geronimo Jackson poster in the cafateria. Also, isn't that Larry from the Bob Newhart show? He had a brother Daryl and another brother Daryl!
