Next we flash back/forward to Sayid on the pier with the rest of the Oceanic 6 and Ben the night they all gathered. Sayid takes off and goes to a bar to get drunk. A sexy woman flirts with him, and she’s none other than Ilana.

They go back to a hotel room to have sex, but it’s interrupted when she kicks him and knocks him out. It turns out Ilana isn’t a U.S. marshal, but a bounty hunter hired by the family of the man Sayid killed on the golf course last season. For some reason, they want Sayid taken to Guam.

Once the truth serum takes control, Sayid starts blabbing about how he came from Ajira 316 and he used to be on the Island for 100 days, but luckily Radzinsky cuts him off before he can implicate Sawyer. It’s amusing, but also way too convenient for the writers to just have them ask the right questions to avoid learning anything of value about Sayid’s connection to Sawyer.

Radzinsky asks about the DHARMA hatches, and Sayid describes them all, freaking Radzinsky out. That dude is seriously obsessed with his hatches. Unfortunately the “I’m from the future” comment makes everyone doubt everything Sayid is saying.

They take him back to DHARMA-Ville where Radzinsky wants to kill him, and if he doesn’t get his way, he threatens to call Ann Arbor. I’m sure that’s important, but my initial reaction is that Ann Arbor is such a ridiculous sounding name for a town. Horace puts it to a vote, and after some cajoling, everyone votes to kill him, including a reluctant Sawyer so he can keep up appearances.
