lol I loved that moment, especially his sad attempt at trying to get 'on deck' "Er, actually I'm needed on deck" *shuffles towards stairs*
to avoid Sayid. Haha. Good to see Mike again, I've missed him...
I was half expecting him to ask if anyone had seen his boy
..Though after I saw the note I figured it would be Walt, actually, the writing seemed a little kiddish
Soz' Mike
And he never met Des, I don't think; Mike left on the raft before Locke etc blew the hatch open - and then when Mike eventually returned to free Ben, he didn't leave the hatches vicinity (at this time Des had gone missing expecting the world to end lol) By the time Des returned from his round-the-island trip Mike was long gone (if memory serves..)
