Watching Lost

LOCKE: Thank you all for your patience. I know it’s taken me a few days to… figure out our next move, but I didn’t want to do anything until I knew more about our situation. You deserve to know everything that I do, so… no more secrets. As you all know, Miles here and three of his people came to the Island about a week ago. So I brought him up from the boathouse to share with us exactly why they’re here.
MILES: We’re here for him.
HURLEY: Um, we kind of, like, knew that forever ago.
SAWYER: Well, all right then. Problem solved. How soon do we turn him over?
LOCKE: We can’t turn him over.
SAWYER: And why the hell not?
BEN: Because once they have me, their orders are to kill everyone else on the Island.
CLAIRE: Wait. So… what, he’s one of us now? You’re–you’re gonna protect him? He tried to kill you, John.
HURLEY: Yeah. He won’t even tell us who his spy on the boat is.
BEN: It’s Michael.
HURLEY: What?
BEN: My spy on the freighter is Michael.
SAWYER: I’m sorry. You mean the same guy that killed two women in cold blood to set this little bastard free? And then sold all of us out so he could get off the Island? That Michael?
LOCKE: Yes, James. That Michael.

SAYID: Hello, Michael.
MICHAEL: Not now, man.
SAYID: Yes. Right now.Why are you on this boat?
MICHAEL: I’m here to die.

BEN: This is a map to the temple. It’s a sanctuary. It may be the last safe place on this island.
KARL: How come we don’t know about this?
BEN: Well, it wouldn’t be a sanctuary if I told everyone, would it? The rest of our people are already there. If you leave now, you can get there in a day and a half.
KARL: If it’s safe, why don’t we all go - Hurley, Claire, the baby?
BEN: Because the temple’s not for them, Karl. It’s only for us. These people that are coming - they know who I am, Alex. They’re here to capture me. They’ll kill anybody that gets in thier way. If they knew who you were, that you were my daughter, they would use you to get to me. We don’t have much time.
KARL: Maybe he’s right.
ROUSSEAU: I agree. We should go.
ALEX: These people - you said they’re dangerous. More dangerous than you?
BEN: Yes. But your mother will protect you. Okay, now go.

MICHAEL’S MOTHER: I don’t know what you said to that boy, but whatever it was, he doesn’t want to see you.
MICHAEL: Please, ma. He’s my son. I have a right–
MICHAEL’S MOTHER: I thought you were dead.
MICHAEL’S MOTHER: They said your plane crashed in the middle of the ocean, but you show up here fine and dandy, only I can’t tell anybody but you or walt, can’t call you by your real names.
MICHAEL’S MOTHER: He barely talks to me, but he does wake up screamin’ in the middle of the night, and I’m the one that’s got to tell him it’s gonna be okay.
MICHAEL’S MOTHER: So until you can explain to me where you were for over two months and what happened… you gave up your rights.
MICHAEL: Will you, uh… will you tell him I love him?

MICHAEL: How do you find me?
TOM: We’re the ones who sent you home, Michael. Did you honestly think we weren’t gonna keep tabs?
MICHAEL: What do you want?
TOM: Your help.
MICHAEL: Why would I help the son of a bitch who kidnapped my son?
TOM: We gave him back to you in one piece, Mike, you’re the one who lost him. You told him, didn’t you? You couldn’t carry the guilt of what you did to those two women all by yourself, so you shared it with a 10-year-old kid. Is that why you wanna kill yourself, Michael? Because that’s the way he looks at you now? Because he knows you’re a murderer?
MICHAEL: Go away!
TOM: I got some bad news for you, amigo. You can’t kill yourself. The Island won’t let you!

MICHAEL: What you want from me, man?
TOM: In a few days, a freighter is porting in Fiji. It’s Widmore’s boat. We have reason to believe he’s finally found the coordinates of the Island, and he’s heading right for it. So congratulations, Michael. Your shore leave is over. You just got a job on that boat. Meet Kevin Johnson.
TOM: You’re joining the crew in Fiji as a deckhand.
MICHAEL: You want me to go undercover? Why the hell would I go back to work for you people?
TOM: Because if Widmore finds the Island, it’s good night for everybody on it. He’ll kill them all without thinking twice. You wanna redeem yourself for what you did? This is your only chance. You can save all their lives.

MICHAEL: You put me on this boat, talked me into blowing it up, and when I push the damn button, a flag pops up.
BEN: You actually activated the bomb?
MICHAEL: It’s not a bomb! It’s a…It’s a joke.
BEN: There are people on your boat who are innocent. They have no idea that the man they work for is a monster, a killer without conscience or a greater purpose. I had to show you the difference between him and me. When I’m at war, I’ll do what I need to do to win, but I will not kill innocent people.
MICHAEL: Ana Lucia and Libby… they were innocent.
BEN: You killed them, Michael. No one asked you to. I don’t blame you, Michael. We did you have your boy. And what wouldn’t a man do for his son?
MICHAEL: What do you want… from me?
BEN: I want you to compile a list of names… every person on your boat. When I call again, you’ll give me that list. Then you will disable the radio room you’re sitting in. When the crew is disoriented by their lack of communication, you’ll take out the engines, too. That way, the boat can never get to this island, and your friends will be safe. Will you do that for me, Michael?
MICHAEL: Yeah.
BEN: Then consider yourself one of the good guys.
