- 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.
