Watching Lost

MS. DECKER: We’re coming in for a landing. It’s a military facility just west of Honolulu. It’s completely private. Your–your families are already here. Now there’s a lot of press that wanna speak to you, but as far as Oceanic is concerned, you don’t have to speak to any reporters.
JACK: We’ll talk to ‘em.
MS. DECKER: Is that all right with all of you?
JACK: It’s fine. We all agreed. We just–we just wanna get it over with.
MS. DECKER: Okay. Um, they’re referring to you as the “Oceanic Six”. That’s not the best branding as far as we’re concerned, but it’s catchy. We’ll see you on the ground.
(Plane descending)
JACK: We all know the story. If we get any questions that we don’t wanna answer, or that we can’t answer, let’s just keep our mouths shut. It’s okay. They’ll–they’ll think that we’re in shock.
SUN: We are in shock, Jack.
JACK: Well… then this should be easy.

SAWYER: Hey, who are you talkin’ to up there, Genghis?
JACK: Where’s Claire?
SAWYER: We lost her.
JACK: You what?
SAWYER: She just walked off in the middle of the night. We looked for her for a day, but she was just gone. I was hopin’ maybe she went back to the beach.
JACK: She didn’t.
(Aaron crying)
SAWYER: Well, what are y’all doin’ out here? What’s that phone for?
JACK: The chopper flew over the beach. Someone tossed this out. It must’ve been Sayid.
SAWYER: Well, you better hope it ain’t Sayid, ’cause if he’s with those animals that just blew up half of New Otherton, you do not wanna tussle with ‘em.
KATE: What, they tried to kill you?
SAWYER: Just like Locke said they would.
JACK: So… what? We’re supposed to just… turn around and hide? ‘Cause it seems like that didn’t work so well for you.
SAWYER: I’m sorry, Doc, maybe this is déja vu, but didn’t you just do the whole “run through the jungle with a walkie” plan?
JACK: That helicopter is our only way off this island.
(Aaron crying)
SAWYER: What’s with you and “gettin’ off the island”? You’re like a damn broken record.
KATE: Stop it! Are you two fightin’ each other now?
(Continues crying)
JACK: Look. I put Sayid and Desmond on that chopper. It was my call. It’s my responsibility. I’m going after it whether they’re on it or not. You can all head back to the beach.
KATE: Jack… no, no, no. You can’t go by yourself.
JACK: Take care of the baby. Okay?
SAWYER: That son of a bitch is stubborn.
(Gun cocks)
SAWYER: Hold up! You don’t get to die alone.

HURLEY: So when is someone gonna tell me where we’re going?
BEN: We’re going to a place called the Orchid, Hugo.
HURLEY: And what’s that?
BEN: It’s a greenhouse.
HURLEY: And why are we going to a greenhouse exactly?
BEN: You heard John. We’re going to move the island.
HURLEY: Right. And how are we gonna do that?
BEN: Very carefully.
HURLEY: Well, if you could move the island whenever you wanted, why didn’t you just move it before the psychos with guns got here?
BEN: Because doing it is both dangerous and unpredictable. It’s a measure of last resort.
HURLEY: Awesome.
(Ben pushes aside some rocks to reveal a wooden box. Before Ben can open the box, Locke steps on it.)
LOCKE: Allow me.

FARADAY: Hey, Sayid, listen. If you wanna run off into the jungle after the chopper, you should do that. But in the meantime, we need to get these people off this island.
SAYID: I won’t be long. If I can catch up with Jack and Kate–
FARADAY: I can start ferrying people now. I can get them there safely. By the time you get back, I can have most of these people on our boat.
SAYID: I trust you know the bearing. You’d better get going.
FARADAY: Thank you. (To group) All right, first group in the raft. We can fit six.
JULIET: Okay, okay, hold on. Sun is pregnant. You should go first.

LOCKE: What are we waitin’ for?
BEN: We’re waiting, John, because Charles Widmore, the man who’s trying to capture me and kill all the rest of you, knows about this place and knows that what we need is inside.
LOCKE: (Sighs) I thought you said you had no idea why he was trying to find he island.
BEN: I wasn’t being entirely truthful.
LOCKE: Yeah. When are you ever entirely truthful?
BEN: You need to see this.
LOCKE: What am I looking for?
BEN: Look over there on the left-hand side. Watch the plants at the back.
LOCKE: I don’t see any–
BEN: They’re already here.

HENDRICKS: We’ve got some kind of RF interference with the the fathometer. I can’t see the reef, mate.
DESMOND: RF interference? How is that possible? The radio room’s down.
HENDRICKS: I don’t know, but something on this boat is broadcasting. If we don’t turn it off, I’m not going any closer than 5 miles off the coast.
DESMOND: Then I’ll find it.

LAPIDUS: Your buddies were smart enough to keep their asses on the boat because right now that’s the safest place to be. Because when the boys that I brought over here come stompin’ out of this jungle, you’re gonna wanna be long gone.
JACK: Where’d they go?
LAPIDUS: They’re up by some greenhouse, perched up there, waitin’ to snatch Linus.
JACK: Soon as we cut you free, you’ll be able fly us out of here?
LAPIDUS: Hell, yeah.
SAWYER: Hang on, Shaggy. You said the hit squad’s gonna grab Ben Linus?
LAPIDUS: Well, I don’t see what’s gonna stop ‘em.
SAWYER: What are they gonna do with the people that are with ‘em?
LAPIDUS: Nothin’ good.
SAWYER: Hugo’s with Ben.
JACK: (Sighs) Son of a bitch.

JACK: I’m sorry. I don’t understand. Why would he have come to see you?
CAROLE: Oh, he… he didn’t come to see me. I was still in the hospital. I never saw him. He came to see his daughter. My daughter, Mr. Shephard.
JACK: My father didn’t have a daughter–
CAROLE: Yes. He did. If you don’t believe me, check his phone records. Would you like to know the–the strangest thing about all this, Mr. Shephard? My daughter was on your plane, too. She was on flight 8-1-5. (Crying) You were in the air for six hours, probably just a few rows from her and you never even knew she was your sister. (Sighs deeply) she was one of the ones who died when your plane hit the water. (Sighs) Her name was… Claire. (Sniffs) I didn’t mean to burden you with this, but… you needed to know. I’m… sorry for your loss.

SUN: I don’t understand. How’d you get back to New York?
MICHAEL: Uh, Walt and I, uh, uh… we took Ben’s boat and we followed his bearing. A couple of days, we came to an island, you know, with people. I sold the boat… we hopped a cargo ferry back to the States. Didn’t tell anybody who we were.
SUN: And now you’re working for Ben?
MICHAEL: I do not work for Ben. I’m trying to make up for what I did. I’m trying to help you out here. Translate what I said.
JIN: I understand

BEN: Listen to me very carefully, John, because I’m not gonna have time to repeat this. You’re gonna go into that greenhouse through that hole there. Once inside, you’re gonna turn left. Go about 20 paces until you see a patch of anthuriums on your left. They’re in an alcove against the north wall. Face the wall, reach down with your left hand. You’ll find a switch that activates the elevator. The elevator takes you down to the actual Orchid station.
HURLEY: Whoa. Wait. What?
LOCKE: Okay, I’m sorry, Ben, but maybe I missed the part where you explained what I’m supposed to do about the armed men inside.
BEN: I’m gonna take care of them.
LOCKE: And how the hell are you gonna do that?
BEN: How many times do I have to tell you, John? I always have a plan.
