Tom

I think he is an original Dharma person. Why you say? Simple, when Sawyer was locked in a cage and Tom brought Kate to the other one; he saw Sawyer got a fish biscuit. Tom said, it only took the bears 2 hours. Now, it was a zoological station, how else would he know that unless he was Dharma?

Perhaps he is Alvars once removed brothers sisters nephew.

good point. could be true but he's gpoing to die anyway. according to some sources :P

[Museness]

I've read those sources too... But I hope he doesn't die. I think he still has a story to tell. He needs one flashback at least, I'm sure...
I quite like Tom, and reckon he could possibly have been Dharma, why would they let him survive though?

[Gartism]

*ahem* Tom might die -- but it won't be permanent.

There's still so much to do

That is one of the funniest scenes ever... I always took it as Tom being a sarcastic smart ass. Just the way he said HOW'D YOU DO THAT??? I wish that supermarket thing would have went through that would have sold the DHARMA food... I'd have fish biscuits for every meal

But it's possible that he's a DHARMA refugee.

That's how I took it too. Like he was mocking him the whole time. His pretend amazement when he asked the question just set his response up perfectly. I didn't take it to mean that Tom saw the bears for sure. It was just a good shot at Sawyer.
