...with the LAPD. Ohh, so that explains why she’s capable of beating the crap out of people. Like 50 Cent, Ana Lucia was shot multiple times. Unlike 50, she lost a child as a result of the shootings. It’s “Get Rich or Die Tryin’” meets “Junior”! After shooting Shannon (because she ran at them really fast—damn those LAPD instincts), Ana Lucia flees to the jungle and Sayid follows her. I guess he’s holding a grudge...

But the desert region may have tasted a hint of a more enticing asset. Many of the once palatial homes of its former merchants, who made their riches during the heyday of the Raj, are up for grabs. By some estimates, as many as 10,000 of these crumbling structures are spread across the sands, awaiting rescue. Authorities hope that some will be turned into hotels or museums...
