Notes:

1. From Lostpedia: Among Ben's foreign banknotes is an original Series E £20 note issued by the Bank of England, withdrawn in 2001. The design incorporates the face of Michael Faraday. The New Zealand passport shown briefly from the drawer is a diplomatic passport. Standard issue New Zealand passports are blue, while the one shown in the episode was red. The passport that Sayid picked up to inspect was from Switzerland. The date of birth on this passport is March 3, 1962. It was issued on April 2, 2003 and expires on April 1, 2013. The name on the passport is Dean Moriarty.
2. The Theory of Relativity basically states that if objects are moving at different speeds, time can move at different speeds as well.

1. Sullivan, the hypochondriac, and Jack as usual acting like he has more important things to do, because everything Jack does is important!
2. "Dudes, we're lost on an island! Running from boars, and monsters, freakin' polar bears!" Hurley "Polar bears?" Michael "You didn't hear about the polar bear?" Charlie
3. "Are you playing golf? Can I play?" Sullivan
4. "Doctor playing golf? What's next, cop eating a donut?" Sawyer
5. "No, it's a mulligan. Mulligan. It's a gentleman's sport." Charlie From Lostpedia
6. Locke giving Walt the knife.

Notes:

1. The first time we see Ethan. He hunts with Locke.
2. Rousseau calls her team "the others," which is funny now because we know there are other others, but at first it was used from Rousseau and the beach camp referring to their people.
3. This episode is the introduction of other things on this island.
4. The whispers from Lostpedia: (Male Voice) "Just let him get out of here" (Male Voice) "He's seen too much already." (Male Voice) "What if he tells?" (Female Voice) "Could just speak to him." (Male Voice) "No."
5. Also from Lostpedia: David Fury revealed in the first draft of the script, "there was an exchange (pitched by J.J. when he and I broke the story) in an early draft of “Solitary” when Rousseau tells Sayid she had been part of a research team. Sayid asks her what they were researching. She replies: "Time." The network saw that draft and asked us to remove the line. They were very timid about anything that smacked of Sci-Fi during the first season."
