Hes Our You

The chicken lost its life. So I guess the idea of this scene is that at first we don’t really know who Sayid is…. He could be the one who could not kill, and that is his true nature, or he could be the one who is the natural born killer. I figured out halfway that he was the nbk… but only because that was the better looking child. And, if there is one thing that LA has taught me is that casting agents aren’t going to cast ugly babies.
The fact that Ben brings Sayid chicken salad is funny in both the best and the worst ways. I almost though that they were going to do a flashback of the chicken getting killed and show how it somehow got to the island and then into Ben’s chicken salad sandwich. They didn’t. (also, I thought it would be great if the book that Ben gave Sayid was Harry Potter)
Russian lost his life.
Juliet loses her chance of happiness. It really bothers me that shes just the consolation prize. She seems pretty confident of her relationship with Sawyer though...
There is no way that they just happen to have a dharma jumpsuit big enough for Hurley. That is the least believable thing I’ve seen on this show so far.
Sawyer loses on the vote to keep Sayid alive.
Ben loses his life. But highly doubtful… I still maintain that Ben is a good guy just doing what he has to do.

I really like Sayid. It pains me to watch him struggle with his life. He is the tortured and the torturer in every sense of the word. His struggle is so poetic and heart wrenching. If someone said to me “he (or shes) our you”… Im not sure how I would feel. For Sayid, this must incite nothing but terror. Who would win in a fight… the terminator or Sayid? The Predator or Sayid? Ben Linus or Sayid?

Questions…
So my big question is what exactly happened when Ben saw Sayid on the plane? Did Ben already know that Sayid was going to kill him? Was he about to crap his pants? Or did Ben plan it? Who knows!??! Not me… next week maybe!
