Theo, I think he might have. Why else would he help Michael after Michael beat his ass?
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Because he wants off the island in the worst way?
(laughing)
well, there's that too.
The one plot point that still doesn't work for me is that if Jin's being sent on errands to Sydney and LA, he should speak better English. Surely BossDaddy has the money to pay for lessons.
I didn't mind that at all. If he's going to local Korea-towns to do his errands English should only be a factor with the, likely bi-lingual, customs agents.
Did anybody notice that 'Hurley on T.V.' was waring the same clothes as 'Hurley on island'? Fashion coincidence? Also, I loved the discman montage too. I was just thinking to myself at that exact time "how long do those batteries last?".
My brother goes to Singapore on business all the time, and doesn't speak...jeez, what do they speak in Singapore?
BossDaddy probably has all kinds of contacts that work for him and if Jin not speaking English keeps him isolated and then he has to rely on BossDaddy's minions.
jeez, what do they speak in Singapore?
English? It was a colony for a long time.
jeez, what do they speak in Singapore?
Apparently, a whole mess of languages.
The national language of Singapore is Malay, while English is the language of administration and commerce. Tamil and Chinese are also official languages. Mandarin is increasingly encouraged as the lingua franca for the Chinese in place of dialects like Hokkien, Teochew, Cantonese, Hakka, Hainanese and Foochow. Among the Indian community, apart from Tamil, other languages spoken are Malayalam, Punjabi, Telegu, Hindi and Bengali. Most of the literate population is bi-lingual, and domestically English and Mandarin are the most commonly used languages. In parliamentary debates, members may speak Malay, Mandarin, Tamil or English and simultaneous oral translations are provided.
Jin not speaking English on what appears to be his first trip to Sydney and LA to meet with other Koreans does not bother me at all.
DH pointed out that when Jin, all bloody and guilty, says "I did it for us" (or I do it for us, I forget the exact wording), that would make a certain type of person hate herself, rather than Jin or Daddy. I don't jbnow if Sun is that sort of perso or not.
