Act 1:
Hurley, Sun, Charlie, Paulo and Nikki are looking around the ping-pong table. Sawyer walks up with the ball, but he won't give it back. He wants his stuff back. Nikki points out that it wasn't his stuff. Sawyer replies that it was his stuff when he "took it" and he wonders who she even is. He then offers to let them play him for it. He wants one game against their best player and when he wins, he wants his "stash" back. Hurley wants to know what happens if he loses. Sawyer doesn't think that'll happen, but says that he can "name" it. Jin and Sun talk in Korean. Sawyer refers to them as Crouching Tiger & Hidden Dragon as he thinks that they might have something good. She says that if he loses, then he can't use any nicknames for a week. Charlie likes it. Sawyer agrees to it, says he'll be back in an hour to play their picked player. He returns the ball.
Locke and Sayid talk as a saddled horse is seen. Sayid says that he's circled the house and found it to be isolated. Locke wonders about the satellite dish. Sayid thinks they could use it to communicate and asks Danielle if that's the radio tower. Danielle says that she's never seen the house before. He hands the binoculars to Locke, who takes a look. Kate asks Sayid about his having seen the man before. Sayid says he saw him on the video feed from the Pearl station. Kate wants to know who he is. Sayid says that there's only one way to find out. As Locke and Rousseau look on, Sayid gives Kate the rifle. He says that he's going to ask him and figures that he'll feel less threatened if Sayid is unarmed. If Eye-patch still feels threatened, then they can cover him from here. Danielle moves to leave. Kate wants to know where she is going. Danielle says that she has no interest in the man and that is how she survived. She's going to wait for them by the stream.

He says that was their one chance of communication with the outside world. Locke says that the computer said that if there was an incursion by the hostile to press 7-7, so he pressed it.
