Trivia:

When Hurley is shown playing "Connect Four" in the mental institution, he states "How about best out of 7?" This is the same thing that Sawyer said to Hurley when they were playing ping pong on the island. "Connect Four" is also the same game that Hurley had played with Leonard when he had first heard the "numbers."

Goofs:

Crew or equipment visible: When the detective tells Hurley that he can put him in the nut house, Hurley respond by hugging him. Over the detective's right shoulder, during the over the shoulder shot of Hurley, you can clearly see the left hand of the camera operator, and most of the lens.

Quotes:

Hugo 'Hurley' Reyes: I don't think we did the right thing, Jack. I think it wants us to come back!
Jack Shephard: Hurley.
Hugo 'Hurley' Reyes: And it's going to do everything it can...
Jack Shephard: We're never going back!
Hugo 'Hurley' Reyes: Never say never, dude...

Absolutely BRILLIANT

well this was great. it never had the shocker at the start like season 2 and 3, but i still think that start was great and baffling.

and i didn't like the start episodes as of season 2 and 3 as much as this, nothing happened in them apart from the shocks.

this had great confrontation, emotion, story.

and whoever said Smallville makes good television, HA, don't make me laugh. They aren't going to answer all the series question in the opening episode of season 4.

I cant believe Locke tried to kill Jack as well, i like Locke more than Jack and Locke wouldn't have done that
