David Shephard reading 'The Annotated Alice,' likes the Dodgers

Back at Jack's apartment, we see David's room, which has a framed picture of Dodger Stadium on the wall. Jack tells him that he hooked up the cable in there so he could watch the Red Sox, so this seems to indicate that he doesn't really pay attention to what David likes.

Jack picks up a copy of The Annotated Alice: The Definitive Edition by Lewis Caroll that David has. Jack says that he used to read the book to David when he was little. Jack also read the story to Aaron when he and Kate were together after the Oceanic 6 left the island.

David won't stop and talk to Jack, and we he Jack stops him, David says they only see each other once a month and can't they just get through it. Jack gets a call from his mother and leaves.

We can see here that Jack has carried his daddy issues with Christian into his own relationship with David, which we'll see more of later.
