Review:
I didn’t recall this episode being as good as it is. Sayid’s stories really take a nosedive after this point, I think I lost respect for him after he fell in love with Shannon. This episode sets up a lot of storylines. It introduces Rousseau and tells her story. It introduces Ethan, as a nice strange man. Sayid also finds the wire on the beach that leads to The Looking Glass. The Black Rock is also introduced briefly. And Danielle tells Sayid there are Others on the island, and on a related note Sayid hears the voices for the first time. That’s pretty dense for an episode when the secondary storyline involves setting up a golf course. In all this was a surprisingly good episode, 8.0/10
