There's no way they'd have wasted that much gas, if any, on burning something. With how rarely they have access to gas, and how useful it could be. Small detail, but really bugged me. Kinda funny though, it seems there were no practical effects for that scene, and they literally did light a bunch of gas, with how it ignited with a huge woosh, and spread further than necessary.

I can picture the people on this site reviewing the first episode of Lost. “They better tell us by the second episode what is special about the island and what the monster is. Or I am outta here!” The show is a mystery for a reason. Plus one monster being killed does count as the show moving forward a little bit.

Why does everyone have visions and when someone says he had a vision, everyone thinks he's crazy?

Another episode, another ton of mysteries, no answers, this show is going nowhere fast

Where the hell is Walt?
