As they leave the store, Qualls is amazed that Hurley finally made a move after crushing on Starla for months, calling him "frickin' Fabio." He wants to know what's gotten into him. "Nothing," says Hurley. "I just wanted to ask her out before…" He trails off. "Before what?" asks Qualls, and Hurley says "nothing."
Underneath Swan station, Sayid and Jack are crawling along the pipes and concrete pillars. "This is the last duct," says Sayid. "I believe we're under the area where we began. They poured concrete all the way down here too." He's brought his titanium battering ram with him and starts hammering again. No good, it's just as thick. Jack suggests that there might be a way around it, so they crawl around looking. Jack wonders what all the pipes are, and Sayid's best guess is that there's a "geo-thermal generator" behind the wall. "That's the power source," he explains. That's a better guess than mine, which would have been a really, really long extension cord from Madagascar. Sayid notes that the pipes are very hot. Anyway, they're blocked from finding out what's behind the big door, so they pause for a moment while Jack asks Sayid what he thinks the whole Swan station thing is about. "The last time I heard of concrete being poured over everything in this way was Chernobyl," he says. I don't know what that means. Doesn't Chernobyl play for the Spurs?
