Lost Recap: The Brig

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?

Unfortunately, Hugh finds the money missing, and being Hugh, he expects everyone, even the fast-talking Wayne.  Naturally, Wayne has a story to cover up the missing money.  Namely that a new investor is coming aboard.  Now all the Riches need to do is find him.
