I kept waiting for the van to crash, too. I was really glad that the first horrible thing that happened to Hurley was actually small and human.
Also, how messed has their time on the island been that Locke can lecture Hurley in a sort of tired but patient tone of voice, and Hurley can be childish and pissy back to him, and the whole time not get totally freaked out by the GIANT FUCKING SNIPER RIFLE Locke is playing with.
I'm intrigued to know what killed the Other!Survivors. The mysterious disease? Each other? The Others?
I hope it turns out the be the mecha-whatzit, because otherwise I'm going to have to assume it left the island in search of Rambaldi artifacts.
I was just reading some of the TWoP reactions to last night's ep (boy, do a lot of them really hate Ana-Lucia and Charlie!!), and someone thought that Hurley's boss and Locke's boss at the box company were one and the same. I'll have to double check my DVD of "Walkabout" tonight, but did anyone else pick up on this?
OMG, he is!
Well, or so it appears from epguides.com.
I'm guessing that after the news of Hurley's lotto win came out, he hit up his "old buddy" for a job, and Hurley being the nice guy he is, gave him one at his new box company.

Or, after the chicken stand got hit by a meteorite (isn't that what happened?), he got a job at the box company.
How could I forget about the meteorite?!
That's probably when he went to Hurley for a job. Then again, since Hurley seemed surprised by the fact that he owned a box company when he was talking with his investment guy, maybe it's yet another coincidence.
I can't believe I didn't recognize Holland Manners. I'ma blame it on my lousy reception.
The flashback felt pretty re-tready to me, but in a fun way--how much did I love Hurley asking the music chick out? So I guess I'm shallow in that this taught me nothing more than Michael's flashback did, but at least Hurley's didn't induce as much cringing.
I'm surprised at Sayid crawling around exploring under the hatch, considering he was the smart person who told them not to open it in the first place.

Especially considering his "You know what this reminds me of? Chernobyl!" comment.
Yeah, that's a sentence I would only ever word as "You know what
that
reminded me of," and only after getting out.
