I like the starting of this one so far – cool opening flashback scene.

The frog’s laughing at him. I love it.

Sawyer’s run out of people to bully, so now he’s picking on the local wildlife…

John and Jack just keep getting pitted against each other whether they like it or not.

“Barbar”… heh. Sawyer screws up his latest nickname attempt.

The way Sayid and Locke are talking about Jack reminds me of a D&D party trying to figure out how to torture a captive without the paladin finding out. Jack’s lawful goodness is clearly coming into conflict with the more morally, ah, flexible members of the party.

“Do you want to know who I am?” didn’t sound like Sayid to me.

I am not looking forward to Sayid’s actions tonight, but of course I will watch every second.

I paused the frame when all but the last image had set. The first picture looked like a length of rope folded roughly in half, then a blank space, then a rocket, a bird (maybe a penguin) and an arrow.

Anybody think Sawyer’s going to have any toxic effects from touching that frog? A little island karma perhaps?

Or do you have to lick one of those things to get that effect?

Sure would like to know what all those red symbols on the clock meant…

I’m sorry! I’ll wait a few minutes before posting from now on - I’d hate to ruin it for anyone!

Was that Kate’s father that asked Sayid if he had a wife and kids?

- I officially hate Sawyer now
- Jack is a pussy

I thought they looked like Egyptian hieroglyphics… yeah, I know, that doesn’t really fit, but this is crazy-ass island, so why not?

And yes, the poison dart tree frog should make Sawyer lose all his hair or something.

No worries. 🙂 I was just making an observation. For a minute I thought I’d zoned out and missed something important.
