Did any of you guys notice that right when Ben wakes up in the desert of Tunisia in Halowax's coat, that he immediately checks his arm? He has a wound there. Made me think of Marvin Candle and his missing arm in the Swan Orientation film. Sine we're all kind of assuming that Candle, Halowax, and Wickmund are the same guy.

What's that all about? Could it just mean that Ben went to Tunisia from Tikrit earlier, or was he wporried thst he might have been injured from the time travel?

And why is he wearing such a warm coat? My first thought was that he was injured just before 'jumping' or whatever you wanna call it. Maybe he time traveled to escape whatever was going on, maybe all hell was breaking loose on the island and he warped out of there but was nicked by a bullet or something as he was getting away. I just used the phrases jumped, time traveled and warped! Man I love this show.

My thought was that he either went to the Listening Station first and got grazed with a bullet before he transported himself to Tunisia. OR he was grazed by a bullet somewhere else (by the freighties???) and intended to go to the Listening Station but accidentally went to Tunisia instead. Possibly Desmond's turning of the fail safe key made time travel from the island a little screwed up and now you're not sure just where exactly you'll end up.

Maybe there is a station deep in a cave that is cold or possibly a station in Antartica that Ben has access to???????????
