Casting backstory ''I thought [Sayid] was intriguing in the sense that you don't get a main character on prime-time American TV who's Iraqi. That was exciting enough for me to want to be involved.''
Our favorite moment When he sets off alone to map the island, full of self-loathing (for wrongly torturing Sawyer) and self-confidence: ''I can't think of a better person to do it than the only one I trust.''
His favorite moment ''The scene where [Shannon] sings in French. When people are in panic mode, to have those moments of quiet and connection — it's good to play that.''
Castaway he'd most like to be stranded with ''That's obvious, isn't it? Shannon.''
Isn't it about time for some island romance? ''I think there would be a hell of a lot more shagging going on than lingering looks across campsites.''
Least favorite conspiracy theory ''The most idiotic one to me is that it's a dream.''
How much is he like Sayid? ''In real life, I'm less than heroic. There's no way that I would be capable in the way Sayid is. I'd just cave in and give up.''
Burning question Earlier this season, someone knocked out Sayid while he was trying to operate the plane's radio. Who did it, and why? ''You will find out within the next three original episodes, definitively,'' Lindelof says. ''They will find the person, and that person will confess to having done it.''
