After watching D.O.C. last week, it probably raises more questions than it answers. All along, the producers have said that the survivors aren’t dead. If they aren’t dead, then why in the world does our new visitor who parachuted to the island – and the world at large – think that everone is dead from the crash of the plane? You could argue that the limbo theory is a cop-out, but at least it would give a bit of closure to the storyline. At this point, just getting some answers would be nice.
Regardless, now that we have a visitor to the island, the hunting party has decided that they need some help. The natural choice for help would be, of course, Jack. But since he’s making nice with Juliet, for whatever reason, Jack is now out of the running as a possible solution. Next up as problem-solver is Sayid. That’s a good choice, because Sayid can do a lot of things, and he also doesn’t take much crap. So he throws around his charm, and promptly gets the newcomer to not like him much. That doesn’t help, but he does get the satellite phone to work. Somewhat.
