Fullmetal Alchemist – Episode 11 Review
Episode 11, "The Other Elric Brothers (Part 1)"
Synopsis: The Elric brothers travel to the town of Xenotime, where research is being done on the Philosopher’s Stone to replenish the gold supply. However, they find that two brothers are claiming to be them. They sneak into the mansion where the fake Elrics work and confront them, but are driven out. Later, they confront them again, and the younger brother stands up against the older one, but the guards arrive again.
Comments:
This and the next episode are adaptations of Makoto Inoue’s light novel, Sareki no Daichi (translated by Viz as "The Land of Sand"), from 2003. In it, Edward and Alphonse find themselves in the mining town of Xenotime, where they encounter fake Elric brothers, Russell and Fletcher Tringham. I haven’t read this book. I’ve only read a brief synopsis. I’m not sure whether it was intended to be part of the manga canon or not, because it also features the mysterious "red water" which becomes a big plot element of the first anime series, but the book came out before these episodes.

Episode 9, "Be Thou for the People"
*****SPOILERS*****
Synopsis: Edward is given his first assignment as a certified State Alchemist: inspecting the Youswell coal mine in the east. He and Alphonse take a train to the small mining town, which is controlled by an officer named Yoki. Edward is shunned by the locals for being a dog of the military and flattered by Yoki who wants to buy his trust. However, seeing the bad position the people are in, Edward tricks Yoki into giving up the deed to the mine and sells it cheaply to the people of the town. Because of this, Edward’s reputation as a hero of the people spreads. The episodes long flashback ends to where Ed and Al began the show, just outside Lior.
