- TriviaWhen Mr. Eko first says his name, he says it as one word. Even in the subtitles it appears as "Mistereko". When Sawyer replies, "Mr.Eko?", Mr. Eko grins and says "Yes".
- GoofsIn the flashback to Jin's job interview at the Seoul Gateway Hotel, his resume is in Korean but his name also appears in the Latin alphabet. However, it is spelled Jin-Soo Kwan, while it should appear as Kwan Jin-Soo, since family names are always first in Korean.

Featured review
Obvious and shallow filler episode
"... And Found" is easily the worst script for "Lost" which was written by head writers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse to date. Upon saying something similar to my only "Lost"-watching friend at the time of this episode's broadcast I was labeled a philistine for not being able to appreciate this character-driven masterpiece. It is character-driven, but it certainly is no masterpiece.
"... And Found" is one of few "Lost" episodes which feels completely superfluous. The flashbacks are never hard to watch, but much like the rest of the episode they achieve no dramatic purpose whatsoever and introduce nothing new or say anything interesting about Sun or about Jin. Adding insult to injury is the unnecessary and repetitive subplot about the class-based discrimination Jin faced in Korea. Yeah, sure, we get it. We got it the last time we had one of these episodes and Jin lied about his father being alive. Similarly, aside from introducing a superfluous and silly flashback-only character, the rest of the flashbacks are also completely unnecessary and lack the humor or dramatic resonance to justify an episode devoted to them.
On the island there's not much of interest happening. We do get to see more of the tailies and learn more about them, but even these scenes ultimately have little dramatic or plot purpose and make the episode feel like exactly what it actually is: filler. Dragged-out, boring, obnoxious, obvious, shallow filler. Stephen Williams competently directs the episode, and the cast are good as per usual, but this script is just such absolute nonsense. It's not terrible by any means, but it's frustratingly mediocre and an obvious example of the writers dragging things out.
5/10
