Trivia:

Jin is notable in that he is the only major character who was purportedly unable to speak English before arriving on the island. (He does, however, speak English in one of Hurley's dream sequences.) By contrast, Korean-born actor Daniel Dae Kim was raised in Pennsylvania, and speaks English fluently and Korean with an American accent. He is coached on set by a dialect coach and co-star Yunjin Kim to speak Korean without the American accent.

Goofs:

Continuity: When Sun is burying the bottle of messages in the sand she digs a hole, picks up the bottle and has no wedding ring on her hand. After a cut to her face we see a close shot of the bottle in her hands again, and the ring is visible. She puts the bottle in the sand and buries it and her ring is once again missing.

Quotes:

Charlie Pace: [about the food in the hatch] Is there peanut butter?
Hugo "Hurley" Reyes: What?
Charlie Pace: Peanut butter. Nutty, creamy, staple of children everywhere?
Hugo "Hurley" Reyes: Er, yeah. A couple jars.
Charlie Pace: Brilliant. How about you give us one. It's for Claire.
Hugo "Hurley" Reyes: No can do man.
Charlie Pace: You're saying no to a nursing mother?

Who Are "The Others"?

Jack assigns Hurley to make an inventory of the food, and he brings Rose to the shelter to help him. He recalls when he won the lottery, quitted his job and disappointed his best friend. Sayid and Jack explore the shelter trying to find the source of the electromagnetic field. Locke tells Charlie the secret about the shelter. Jin, Sawyer and Michael find that the group that arrested them leaded by Ana Lucia was in the flight 815, and they were twenty three when they crashed the island. Claire finds the bottle with the messages on the beach.

This episode is good, but the ridiculous attitude of Hurley trying to blow the food store is ridiculous. If the group that arrested the raft castaways is also passengers of the flight 815, who are "The Others"? My vote is eight.
