- The man talking to Ethan is Zeke without his fake beard….the same beard which Kate later finds in one of the lockers. Ok…but doesn’t that guy bear a striking resemblance to the man in the latest Sayid episode. The one who forced Sayid to interrogate his superior officer for info? Am I going nuts here? I'm pretty sure I'm wrong here. I just want someone to confirm it for me.

- Since Zeke mentioned that one of Ethan’s tasks was to “make a list” it stands to reason that Ethan and Goodwin both report to Zeke. It is revealed this episode that Ethan is in fact one of the dharma scientists…or at least a medical practitioner of some sorts with links to the dharma initiative. So it seems that all the “others” are part of the original dharma team of scientists…the ones who created the hatch, caused the incident, etc…so where does the military connection come in?

- It’s important to note the reason WHY Zeke felt the need to wear the fake beard, little hat and purposely try and look filthy. I think its because these people want the castaways to remain completely ignorant of their actions…and would prefer to be thought of as highly trained savages living in the jungle rather than mad scientists hiding out in secret underground lairs with supplies, warm beds and really freeeakkken wierd hidden agendas.

Toad: I agree that the guy talking to Ethan is Zeke sans beard, but not the same guy that forced Sayid to interrogate people (actor Clancy Brown). Don't worry, your not going nuts!

Oh I am going nuts! I am just not worried about it!

I would agree that the Army man from Sayids flashback and mr zeke look an awful lot alike. Perhaps that can be tied back to the two men on the boat in the end of season 1.

Yes, when Kate discovered their costumes, I waited for Zeke to appear from behind. They really thought this out, didn't they?

Here's another thought...at least something that made me chuckle.

The search party for Claire was carrying the torches, the same ones they used in the circle of death when Zeke talked to Jack and Locke. Same method of lighting used whenever they go out in the jungle.
