Object Goes In the List, but Doesn't Come out?

I've added an object to a list, then I give a variable one of the objects in a list, but when I try to access a property that should be associated with the object, it tells me it doesn't exist:

SuperStrict

Global biggy:big=big.Create()

Local list:TList

list.AddLast(biggy.smalls[5])

Local thesmall:Object=list.First()

thesmall.Draw()

Type big

	Field smalls:small[]
	
	Function Create:big()				
	
		Local m:big=New big				
			
			m.smalls=New small[10]		
			
			For Local i%=0 To 9
						
				m.smalls[i]=New small	
				m.smalls[i].ID=i			
				
			Next
								
		Return m				
	
	End Function

End Type

Type small

	Field ID%
	
	Method Draw()
	
		Print ID
	
	End Method

End Type

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks

EDIT: Any reference to the Rapper Biggie Smalls is completely coincidental.

Object does not have a method called "Draw". You have to cast it to the appropriate type. E.g., Local thesmall:small = small(list.First())

Excellent, thank you.
