Who knocked Sayid upside the head? I think I was spoiled on another site about it...
Spoiler (?): Spoiler: The woman on the SOS tape is still alive. And CRAZY. And she knocked Sayid upside the head

I wasn't going to read your spoiler, but it ended up in the quote

. Anyway, it was conjecture that I've seen elsewhere anyway. I don't believe it.
I think it is pretty clear that Sawyer clubbed Sayid. He knew exactly where Sayid would be at 5:00, and it would have been simple enough for him to connect the fuse to the end of a cigarette. Light the cigarette, and X minutes later (I have no idea how long a cigarette burns), the fuse is lit and the firework goes off. This would explain (a) why they showed Sayid and Shannon lighting their fuses but didn't show Sawyer, and (b) why Sawyer's firework didn't go off right away (the fuse estimate was a little off).
The only question is, what the fuck is wrong with Sawyer?
