Sayid Doesn't Fuck Around

As we inch closer to Revelations, more and more is being revealed about the true nature of our Losties.

Tonight in the LAlternaverse we find that Sayid gave up on his one true love Nadia and let his brother marry her! Whaaa? This is truly a mysterious universe. Sayid and Nadia obviously still love each other, but Sayid said he didn't want her to be subjected to his violent past.

So Sayid's brother is in some hot water with a loan shark and asks Sayid to use his "techniques" to get him out of paying the continuous vig on the loan. Sayid says he has changed and no longer is a bad ass (remember the dishwasher throw down?!)

Meanwhile back on the Island Sayid wants answers from Dogen and gets in a Jedi duel in the Temple where Dogen tells him to leave and never come back. But before Sayid can even get to the door, Claire shows up at the behest of Smokey/MiBLocke.

Dogen has Claire thrown in the Silence of the Lambs well and tells Sayid, "Not so fast I need you to take this dagger and plunge it into the heart of the first guy you see outside the Temple, don't even let him say hello because he is evil in carnate."

So Sayid wanders out into the jungle and who does he see, but his old friend John Locke. And without hesitating Sayid does exactly what Dogen told him to, driving that knife right into Locke's heart. But to his surprise, it apparently is merely a flesh wound. MiBLocke tells Sayid that he will spare him and give Nadia back to him in exchange for delivering a message back to the Templeothers.

And that message is, "Jacob is dead. You have until sundown to get out and be free. After that it's go time!"

Meanwhile back in the LAlternaverse after Sayid's brother gets a beat down from his loan shark, Sayid gets a call from said shark and lo and behold it's Keamy (are old mercenary from the freighter). Keamy tries to tell Sayid that his brother still owes on the debt, but Sayid doesn't take that news to well and guns down Keamy and his whole team before the eggs get cold. On his way out he hears a rumble in the freezer and uh-oh! it's Jin who doesn't speak English and in this universe he and Sayid are complete strangers.

Back on the Island Kate finds Claire in the well singing some old favorites and tells her that Aaron is okay back in LA. Claire didn't like that news at all, giving Kate the ultimate stink eye.

Sayid goes to see Dogen one more time and informs him he didn't like being set up, so he drowns him in the spring of bubbling tea. Lennon comes by and screams at Sayid that he made a big mistake by killing the only person who could keep out Smokey. Sayid says, "I know" and slits Lennon's throat.

So Smokey says, "Knock, knock here I come" and runs roughshot over the entire village, but not before Ilana, Lapidus, Sun and Miles hide behind Hurley's mystery door. And Kate jumps in the well with Claire for safe keeping.

After all the smoke has cleared out walks Sayid, Claire and a bewildered Kate who has no idea why a dead Locke has a shit eating grin on his face and seems to be comanding an army of the dead. Conspicuously missing from this army is Sawyer. We last saw him in the Cave of Names where he told MiBLocke "Hell yes" when asked if he wanted to get off the island and go home. So, is he guarding a different post? Did he already leave the island? Is he going to infilitrate the 316ers in the Battle for Middle Earth? I guess we'll see.

They all turn and head out of the Temple seeming to say to everyone else left on the island, "It's On Like Donkey Kong!"
