You really think the transceiver runs on AAs? Back off my Hurley, man! You're allowed to knock him for the second "Chinese" comment, though.
Maybe not the tranceiver, but there are probably flashlights the batteries could be used in.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I get immeasurably annoyed with Hurley every time he puts on the fucking discman. Don't they need batteries for the transceiver?

Falafel might share his plans with my man Hurley, if he wanted to bask in the AA love.

By Day 3 at the latest I would've had everybody putting all the resources into a big pile. Way before Sawyer got to hoarding and trading. Folks gotta get organized. Groove on life, big man, but recognize the situation isn't about you and your Willie Nelson.

Also, #1 Resource (on David's island) is the Medical Doctor. Consequently, the medical doctor makes no day trips into the jungle almost falling off cliffs and whatnot. I don't care what his psychodrama is. #2 Resource is the Electronics Guy. He also sits in a shadey hut, with a pile of AA batteries and every gizmo collected.
Also, Mr. Hoards The Narcotic get his ass kicked for keeping his smackfarthing from the doctor who can put it to better use. Hmph.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
they have no key to the handcuffs.
I liked that part because I thought the same thing. I wonder what Sayid would have done if Michael hadn't cut him free (at which point I thought, "Well, crap, now they can't use them anymore!").
I think we should maroon Hec on a deserted island and see whether he practices what he preaches.

I'd start by practicing on you Science Boy. "You! Get to work on those cocoanut telephones they had on Gilligan! Stat!!!!"

So did I. (Though I admit I didnt' think of the non-key having until I read the recap, which made me laugh even harder at it.)

Oh, Hec is true to his word. Frock-coated dudes never fail.
Lieutenant Falafel, t sticks tounge out at SA , however, has not made his need for resources public, so I got a bad Lieutenant Falafel, right here.

Is Hurley in on the Transmitter Conspiracy? Because while he may have noticed Captain FalafelSayid fiddling with parts, he may not have realized that he's using up stuff that may be vital to being rescued.
Another reason why keeping all the maroonees in the dark about the Mysterious Transmission o' Mysterious Doom may not be a wise idea.
