We're the good guys

Also "good ones" doesn't have to mean the same thing to us as it does to the others. If I call someone a "good one" it would mean that they are strong or of good moral fiber. If a cannibal says they're a "good one" it means they're tastey.

Yes. So by calling them 'good ones', could they mean they are good ones for their experimentations?

However, why do they always refer to some losties (the ones they put on their lists) as the 'good ones' and why do they call themselves the 'good guys" ? Good ones and good guys could mean two different things.

Great point! I think we view the losties as the good guys because the others are too unknown to us but the losties have their skeletons also!
