Henry Ian Cusick races into the middle of a bustling marketplace. Desmond is out of breath, sweaty, wearing an unbuttoned maroon paisley shirt, rolled up to his elbows. He’s holding a piece of paper, readings it and scans the crown frantically. He calls out a name, over and over, but everybody in the crowd looks confused. The last name of the person he calls out is Salonga. Salonga is a Filipino village doctor in a small, rural community. He has vices but also has genuine medical skills.

Hurley has a car accident, wearing hospital-type garb, speeding down the street and knocking over boxes on the sidewalk. He’s being chased by Ana Lucia in a police car, wearing huge glasses. This might be a hallucination or a flashback.

Sayid is wearing a black shirt and dark khaki pants, and Hurley is wearing a thick, long, grey bathrobe over a blue T-shirt. Hurley is also holding a burger and a paper cup. They sneak upstairs, up to the top floor, Hurley munching on his food the whole way. They reach the unit they are looking for, and after conferring for a moment, Sayid pushes Hurley aside, draws his gun and points it at the door. The door opens, and there’s a struggle inside.
