I’ll admit right now that I am a huge fan of Lost and have been eagerly awaiting the premiere since last spring. Last night’s 2-hour episode started the season off right but there is one part that got me particularly excited: the scene where Hurley’s dad makes a sandwich.
For those who don’t watch, Hurley Reyes (played by Jorge Garcia) and his mother are flushed with a ton of cash after winning the lottery. Upon learning about the winnings, Hurley’s father David (played by Cheech Marin) returns after abruptly bailing out on the family 17 years ago. As shown last night, David Reyes has become quite comfortable with the lavish life as he makes a salami, cheese, lettuce, tomato and wait for it… caviar sandwich on a kaiser roll.
I’m really not too sure how I feel about fish eggs and cured pork together in a sandwich but you’ve got to try it before you knock it. Just don’t forget to wash it down with a Reyes family favorite – Jarritos, the fruit-flavored Mexican soft drink.
