- Quotes
Amira: After my husband and I first arrived to Paris, I was afraid to ever leave our apartment. So I would stare out in the window into the alley, and I would see this cat looking for scraps. One day some children came into the alley and trapped him in a box. I watched them light firecrackers and drop them in the box. I could hear him howl from three stories above. So finally, I had a reason to leave my apartment. I rescued this cat and I brought him home. He sits with me when I read, sleeps with me, and he purrs. But, every once in a while, he will bite me or scratch me. He does this because sometimes he forgets that he is safe now. So I forgive him when he bites me, because I remember what it is like to never feel safe. And that is because of you. So today, I ask only one thing of you: I ask you now to show me the respect by acknowledging what you did to me. That it was you who questioned me, tortured me and that you remember me.
Sayid Jarrah: I remember you. I remember your face. Your face has haunted me ever since I left Iraq.
[crying]
Sayid Jarrah: I am sorry. I am so sorry for what I did to you. I am sorry.
Amira: I forgive you. When my husband returns, I will tell I made a terrible mistake, that it was not you, and he will release you.
Sayid Jarrah: Why? Why are you letting me go?
Amira: We are all capable of doing what those children did to this cat. But I will not do that. I will not be that.

Alongside "Not in Portland" and "Flashes Before Your Eyes", "Enter 77" is one of the best Season 3 episodes up to this point of the season. Also feel that it is one of the best of Season 3 in general, one of the best episodes of 'Lost' up to this point and among the best of the show in general. Every aspect of "Enter 77" is brilliant and along with "Flashes Before Your Eyes" it's as classic as Season 3 got.
The episode has pretty much everything that 'Lost' is all about. It's taut and thought-provoking, even when not having as many answers as other 'Lost' episodes. It has an emotional core in the intriguing and heartfelt flashback that adds a good deal to Sayid rather than going round in circles. It has tense strategic elements, especially with Mikhail.
On top of all that, it advances characters, shows plot progression rather than repeating itself or being filler and there is some nice foreshadowing. The on-island events are indeed enthralling and there are humorous and light-hearted moments to give levity, like with Hurley and Sawyer.
Can't fault the performances, with Naveen Andrews shining more than he has done since Season 2, also some of his best acting in the role of Sayid.
Nor the stylishness and atmosphere of the visuals, nor the effective use of music, taut writing and the tightly controlled direction.
In summary, brilliant and classic 'Lost'. 10/10 Bethany Cox
