I have a few queries I need a real MGS buff to answer for me;

1) When was Liquid ever with Big Boss, he claims in MGS1 that Big Boss used to refer to him as the inferior one

2) Has Ocelot actually been a good guy throughout the games as he tried to end the Patriots, this also leads me to think perhaps Solidus, Liquid etc. are also all good guys, the only bad guys really being The Patriots, minus Big Boss, also does this make Solid Snake, Meryl, Otacon, Campell etc, all bad guys, working for Zero?

3) I know that Ocelot had left the Patriots and unbeknowst to them he planned to betray them in MGS2, but why did he take the GW disc with all their information on it, claiming he was going after them, or was that just the Liquid Snake persona he'd worked on implementing into his own psyche showing through?

4) It's said on his WikiPage that Ocelot is a triple agent, what were the personal gains he made acting as a triple agent for Russia, the US and China?

5) If Ocelot was acting as a Patriot member, how come he worked alongside Liquid in MGS1? Surely the Patriots would've caught on that he was betraying them and whatnot.

6) In MGS4, the first time we meet Sunny she's cooking some eggs, and she says "I guess Solidus has taken the day off" or something, what is this a reference too?

and finally

7) The Boss says that the Philosophers all died out and the new Philosophers (before they became the Patriots) didn't share the idealistic vision of a world united, who were those people that replaced the original Wisemen's Commitee?

Thanks to anyone that can help me out, spent alot of my teen years trying to figure out the entire MGS story, these are (as far as I believe) the final remaining questions I have in regards to it.
