Lost s04e09 Episode Script

The Shape of Things to Come

Previously on Lost: Miles here and three of his people came to the island about a week ago.
Share with us exactly why they're here.
We're here for him.
How soon do we turn him over? We can't turn him over.
Once they have me, their orders are to kill everyone else on the island.
He won't tell us his spy on the boat.
It's Michael.
Pull! - What are you guys doing? - Shooting things.
This is a map to the temple.
It's a sanctuary.
It may be the last safe place.
Leave now, you can get there in a day and a half.
Your mother will protect you.
- Karl! No! - Come on.
- Come on.
Come on, he's gone.
- No! Wait, wait, don't! I'm Ben's daughter! I'm his daughter! You got a prescription for that? Yeah.
Wrote it myself.
You look terrible.
Well, thanks.
What are those? Antibiotics.
I just got a stomach bug.
You should eat some crackers.
Crackers always make me feel better.
Why aren't they back from the boat yet, Jack? Sayid said the engine was down.
My guess is they're fixing it and wondering why the hell they can't get in touch with us.
- And you're not worried? - No.
My gut says we're getting off this island.
I thought your gut was sick.
Help! I need some help! Help! Help! I need help! I need some help down here! The dog was barking.
I didn't see him.
- Give me a hand.
- All right, I got him.
Do you know who this is? He was on our boat.
He's the doctor.
We're all gonna die.
Calm down, Chicken Little.
The sky ain't fallin' just yet.
This is exactly what he wants, to fight amongst ourselves.
- You're making a big mistake.
- It's his to make, Hugo.
Let's get on with it.
Right.
I'm attacking Siberia.
- Sorry.
- Can't believe you gave him Australia.
- Australia's the key to the whole game.
- Says you.
Stop here.
On your knees.
Get on your knees.
Turn this thing off.
Please.
There's a baby with them.
Just promise you won't Turn the fence off.
OK.
It's off.
Code 14-J.
Code 14-J.
Code 14-J.
- Who is it? - I think it's for Ben.
What's code 14-J? - Where did you hear that? - Phone rang, I picked it up.
A voice kept repeating "code 14-J".
We need to get to the other house.
Better position on the tree lines.
- What are you talking about? - They're here.
Hello.
No, no, no, wait.
Wait, I can explain.
Do you speak English? OK.
OK, OK.
OK.
- Surrender! Surrender! - Oh, so you do speak English.
Let me guess, 14-J ain't the code for the pizza boy.
It's an early warning system.
Warning for what? Someone tripped the panic switch at our security fence.
One of my people has been captured.
How long did you guys debate amongst yourselves to ask me why the phone rang? - Five minutes.
- Well, so much for our head start.
Hold up.
I gotta grab Frenchie and the kids.
They're safe.
I sent Rousseau, Alex and Karl away yesterday.
Away where? Whatever.
Claire's still sleepin', I'II grab her.
- There's no time.
- I'II make time.
It's very important you survive what's about to happen here.
- I need you to stay close to me.
- And why would I do that? The people that are coming won't risk hurting me.
You want to live? I'm your best chance.
His throat was slit.
You know anything about that? No.
- He was fine when I last saw him.
- Which was when? "When" "When" is kind of a relative term.
- We don't know anything about this.
- Any luck fixing the sat-phone? Yes, sorry, no The mike was smashed up pretty good.
Best case scenario, we'd only be able to broadcast tone squelch.
Beeps and boops.
Yeah, but you could still use it as sort of a telegraph, right? If I had some strips of ferrous metal, a nine-volt battery clip and some wiring We got a bunch of stuff we salvaged from the plane.
- Great.
- I'II show you where it is.
Bernard, you got a second? These people, you're scared of them, aren't you? That's right, John.
I am.
What's going on? Get away from the window, Hugo.
- How's Sawyer gonna get back in? - He's not.
Hey! You see if Claire left her house this morning? - Why do you have that? - Get back inside and wait until Get back inside! Get inside! Claire! Claire! Claire! - Good afternoon, sir.
- I'd like a room, please.
Of course, sir.
Is this your first time in Tunisia? No.
But it's been a while.
- Your name? - I'm actually a preferred guest.
It should be under Dean Moriarty.
Certainly, Mr Moriarty.
- May I help you with anything else? - Yes.
Today's date is? - October 24th, sir.
- 2005? Yes, sir.
2005.
Thank you.
Sayid Jarrah Sayid Jarrah Please, I just want to bury my wife in peace.
Right now, I need you to tell me what's going on.
I think the technical term is "shock and awe".
Trying to frighten me into surrendering.
- Why did they stop shooting? - Was that Claire's house? - Claire was there.
- Get the baby away from the window.
Put him in the back room.
You said I need to survive this.
Why? Because there's only one person that can help us, that's Jacob.
- We have to go to him together.
- What makes you think I can find him? - I don't even know where the cabin is.
- I know.
But Hurley does.
Claire! Claire! Claire! Claire.
Are you OK? - Charlie? - OK, OK, OK.
- Where's Aaron? - He's with us.
We're gonna move now.
Let's go.
Open the front door! Hugo, you don't want to do that.
Open the damn door! Open the door! Open the damn door! - Careful, careful.
- Is she all right? She got her bell rung, but she's gonna be all right.
They just started shooting.
Why? Why slaughter people without telling us what they want? They were murdered to make you angry, so you'd be more likely to storm in and throw me to the wolves.
Yeah? What's wrong with that? Sounds like a great plan to me.
What do you say, on three? - I wouldn't if I were you.
- Shut up! Miles? - Who let you out? - The people who gave me this.
They want to talk.
- Step over here.
- Where? Where? Right over here.
You vultures.
You follow me to Tikrit? You spy on me? What are you doing here? I'm here to find the man who murdered your wife.
How did you get here? I came across the Syrian border.
It's not as difficult - How did you get off the island? - Your friend Desmond had a boat.
Remember the Elizabeth? I followed a heading to Fiji.
Then I chartered a plane.
Why now? Remember the name Charles Widmore, don't you? He tried to convince the world your plane was on the bottom of the ocean? What does it have to do with me? With Nadia? There was a man at her procession.
He goes by the name of Ishmael Bakir.
He's one of Widmore's men.
Bakir was last seen five days ago.
In Los Angeles.
Caught by a traffic camera speeding away from the corner of La Brea and Santa Monica.
That's three blocks from where Nadia was killed.
Why would these people want to murder her? I don't know.
But they did.
How many of them are there? - Maybe six.
I'm not sure.
- The hell you mean you ain't sure? - You came over on the same boat.
- They told me they were security.
- Security for what? - For him.
Once they got him, to escort him back to the mainland.
Miles, sounds like you won't collect your $3.
2 million.
- Just take it.
- Why would I talk to them? - Because they have a hostage.
- They've badly miscalculated.
All of my people are prepared to die for this island.
It's your daughter.
Hello.
Am I speaking to Benjamin Linus? That's right.
My name is Martin Keamy.
I'm an employee of Charles Widmore.
- Who's Charles Widmore? - Later.
I'd like you to go look out your east window so we can talk about this face to face.
To the left.
You see me? Yeah, I see you.
All right, Mr Linus, these are my terms.
You'll step out the front door, your hands above your head, walk to me.
Once I have you in my custody, then I promise you that no one else in that house will be harmed.
You and I both know, once you have me, there's nothing to stop you from killing everybody else on this island.
What kind of guy do you think I am? Martin Christopher Keamy, former first sergeant, U.
S.
Marine Corps.
Served with distinction 1996 to 2001, but since then worked with a number of mercenary organisations, specifically in Uganda.
So I know exactly what kind of man you are, Mr Keamy, and we can dispense with the formalities.
OK, Ben, you got it.
Get down.
Get your ass out here right now or I'm gonna kill your daughter.
I'd like to present a counter-proposal.
I'm listening.
You and your friends, you turn around, walk back to your helicopter, you fly away and forget you ever heard of this island.
Tell your daddy goodbye.
Dad? They're serious.
They killed Karl and my mother.
Alex? I have this under control.
Everything's gonna be OK.
Please, Daddy! Please.
You have ten seconds, Ben.
- OK, listen.
- Nine She's not my daughter.
Eight I stole her as a baby from an insane woman.
She's a pawn, nothing more.
She means nothing to me.
I'm not coming out of this house.
So if you want to kill her, go ahead and I don't see him.
They left her body there, disappeared into the jungle.
They won't be gone for long.
It's gonna be dark in 20 minutes, and then they'II come for him.
Then let's just hand him over.
I don't think these people intend to let us walk out here alive, James, - no matter what we do.
- I ain't got no intention of dying.
He changed the rules.
What? Who? What rules? You know I'm right.
Our best chance is to toss him out, fend for ourselves.
Hey! Where are you going? Open this damn door! Open up! Walk.
Who are you and why are you following me? My name is Benjamin Linus.
And I need you to take a message to Mr Widmore for me.
And what message is that? That should do it.
Wait! Where do you think you're going? We're finished here, Sayid.
Turn around and walk away.
Mourn your loss, get on with your life.
I have no life.
They took it from me.
Go home, Sayid.
Once you let your grief become anger, it will never go away.
I speak from experience.
This is my war.
It's not yours.
I spent the last eight years of my life searching for the woman I love.
I finally found her and I married her.
Then I buried her yesterday.
So don't tell me this is not my war.
Benjamin who's next? I'II be in touch.
Open the damn door! The son of a bitch just left us here.
Open the damn door! What's going on? Claire? - You all right, sweetheart? - Yeah.
Bit wobbly, but I'II live.
I wouldn't be too sure about that.
Excuse me, James.
Excuse you? - What were you doing in there? - Listen to me very carefully.
I need all of you to do exactly as I say.
In a minute we have to run from this house as fast as we can.
At that moment, when I give the order, I want you to head straight for the tree line.
You mean towards the guys with guns? No.
We want to be as far away from them as possible.
OK, outside! Outside now! Fall back! What did you do? Did you just call that thing? Fall back! Go! Go, go! - Head for the creek.
I'II catch up.
- Where are you going? I have to say goodbye to my daughter, John.
I can't believe it.
I actually have a signal.
What are you sending? "What happened to the doctor"? OK.
They didn't exactly say what happened to the doctor, but your friends are fine, helicopter's coming back in the morning.
- Well? - He's lying.
What the message said was, "What are you talking about? The doctor is fine".
You know Morse code.
What does that mean? "The doctor is fine"? I don't know.
Why are you lying? Why did you say that the helicopters are coming back? Jack.
Were you ever gonna take us off this island? No.
No.
Jack.
Think your chopper buddies ran that way, if you want to catch up.
Yeah, I think I'II stay with you guys for now.
Sorry about your daughter.
Thank you, John.
That being said, you lied to me.
You told me you didn't know what the smoke monster was.
You can ask Jacob all about it when we go to the cabin.
Hang on.
Jacob? Who the hell's Jacob? He's the man that's gonna tell us what to do next, James.
You know what? I'm done with all this.
Never should've followed you wackos in the first place.
I'm going back to the beach.
Claire and the kid are coming with me.
You good with that? Yeah.
I'm good with that.
I'm coming with you.
Let's go.
You too, Hurley.
- Have you lost your mind? - Hugo stays with us.
- Not a chance.
- Leave me out of this! I'm sorry, Hugo.
We need you to find the cabin.
He ain't going anywhere with you, son of a bitch.
Stop! Put the guns down.
I'II go with Locke.
- Hugo! - It's OK, Sawyer.
Please.
Put your gun down.
You too.
You don't have to do this.
You guys go to the beach.
I'II catch up sooner or later.
You harm so much as one hair on his curly head l'II kill you.
Fair enough.
Let's go.
Go, move! Which way? Follow me.
Thank you.
Good evening, sir.
May I help you? Yes, I'm here to see Mr and Mrs Kendrick in 4E.
- At this hour, sir? - They're expecting me.
Feel free to call up.
No need, sir.
Good night, sir.
Wake up, Charles.
I wondered when you were gonna show up.
- I see you've been getting more sun.
- Iraq is lovely this time of year.
When did you start sleeping with a bottle of Scotch by the bed? When the nightmares started.
Have you come here to kill me, Benjamin? We both know I can't do that.
Then why are you here? I'm here, Charles, because you murdered my daughter.
Don't stand there looking at me with those horrible eyes of yours and lay the blame for the death of that poor girl on me, when we both know very well I didn't murder her at all, Benjamin.
You did.
No, that's not true.
Yes, Benjamin, it is.
You creep into my bedroom in the dead of night, like a rat, and have the audacity to pretend that you're the victim? I know who you are, boy.
What you are.
I know that everything you have you took from me.
So, once again I ask you why are you here? I'm here, Charles, to tell you that I'm going to kill your daughter.
Penelope, is it? And once she's gone once she's dead then you'II understand how I feel.
And you'II wish you hadn't changed the rules.
You'II never find her.
That island's mine, Benjamin.
It always was.
It will be again.
But you'II never find it.
Then I suppose the hunt is on for both of us.
I suppose it is.
Sleep tight, Charles.
