What Happened On Lost: The Economist

WELL... tonight's episode was Sayid, portrayed by Naveen Andrews, centric and exposed a big secret! Sayid is one of the Oceanic 6! Ok, so now we're up to Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Hurley (Jorge Garcia), and now Sayid. It also seems that Sayid is a hitman in his post-Island life. We also find out that Ben (Michael Em)has made it off the island, but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't count as one of the Oceanic 6...since he wasn't on the flight.

Anyway, back on the island everyone has divided up into two groups: Locke's group and Jack's group. As we rejoin Jack's group we find them working on the helicopter, trying to make it flight worthy and trying to decide what to do next. Since the freighters are after Ben and Locke has Ben, an unhappy alliance is formed between Miles and Jack's group of losties. Sayid, Miles, and Kate set off to find Locke and his band of merry men.

Meanwhile, Locke has led his group to the site of Jacob's cabin except...it's not there! Ben begins to taunt Locke and after some malcontent discussion, Locke decides they're going to the Barracks.

As Jack's assault team (sans Jack) make it to the Barracks it seems to be deserted...except for Hurley gagged and stuffed (literally) into a closet. As they begins to explore the rest of the Barracks, they are set upon by Locke's group and "captured." Ben and Sayid wind up spending some quality time together that may come into play later...we'll have to wait and see.

After some bargaining, Locke agrees to release Sayid, Kate, and Charlotte to return to the helicopter. He holds onto Miles as insurance.

When they get back to the helo, it winds up being Lapidus (the pilot), Sayid, Desmond, and Naomi's body making the trip back to the freighter.
