Lost s04e13 Episode Script

There's No Place Like Home (2)

Previously on Lost: I put Sayid and Desmond on that chopper.
It was my call.
I'm going after it whether they're on it or not.
Oh, my God.
- Lapidus! - Yeah! - Where'd they go? - They're up by some greenhouse.
Perched up there waiting to snatch Linus.
If you could move the island whenever you wanted, why not move it before the psychos with guns got here? It's a measure of last resort.
Go in the greenhouse.
The elevator takes you to the Orchid Station.
I'm sorry, but maybe I missed the part of what I'm supposed to do - about the armed men inside.
- How many times I have to tell you, I always have a plan.
- These aren't Jack or Sawyer.
- Whoever you are, come out now! My name is Benjamin Linus.
I believe you're looking for me.
Ladies and gentlemen, the survivors of Oceanic 815.
Is it possible there are any other survivors from the crash - yet to be discovered? - No.
Absolutely not.
Why did you call me, Jack? I was hoping that you'd heard, maybe you'd go to the funeral.
Why would I go to the funeral? - This is not gonna change.
- No, I'm sick of lying.
I have to go.
He's gonna be wondering Don't.
- We were not supposed to leave.
- Yes, we were.
Goodbye, Jack.
We have to go back, Kate.
We have to go back! "We have to go back.
We have to go back"?! Who do you think you are?! You were calling me over and over again for two days straight stoned on your pills, and you show up here with an obituary for Jeremy Bentham? When he came to me and I heard what he had to say, I knew he was crazy.
But you, you believed him.
- Yes.
- Him, of all people.
Yes, Kate, I did because he said that that was the only way that I could keep you safe, you and Aaron.
Don't you say his name.
I still have to explain to him why you are not there to read to him so don't you say his name! I'm sorry.
I've spent the last three years trying to forget all the horrible things that happened the day that we left.
How dare you ask me to go back? You sure we're going the right way? Lapidus said they were headed northeast.
Slow down, you look like you're about to keel over.
- I'm fine.
- Of course you are.
You're always fine.
- This it? - I don't know.
So, what's the plan, Sundance? The plan is we wait to Hugo? Sawyer.
- You all right? - Dude, you came back.
How'd you know where I was? It's good to see you, Hurley.
Yeah.
Yeah, man, you too.
So where the hell is he? Locke.
Hello, Jack.
There's enough C4 here to blow up a bloody aircraft carrier.
When I was in the army I did six months explosive ordnance disposal.
Which, as the saying goes, is just enough time to learn how to blow yourself up.
It's on a timer? Why hasn't it gone off yet? This is a radio receiver.
It's like a walkie-talkie.
You send it a signal and it triggers the bomb remotely.
So can we turn off? This is a This is a tripwire.
Move it and boom.
This is dummy wiring.
If you cut the wrong one, boom.
This is multiple firing systems.
You can disable one, but the next one, boom.
This battery's the power source.
- You disconnect it - Boom.
What are you doing in here? There's a Dharma station below us, and I'm looking for a way to get in.
To get in and do what? Hugo, James, you mind if I spoke to Jack alone? Don't bother.
We just came back for Hurley.
Let's go.
- Jack, you need to hear what - What I need to do is to walk back to the chopper, get on it, and get the rest of our people off this island.
Dude, probably not the best idea right now.
Those Rambo guys are taking Ben to that helicopter.
He surrendered to them an hour ago.
Now why the hell would he do that? So tell me something, Ben, what is it that makes you so important? I'm curious.
I'm curious as to why Mr Widmore would pay me so much money just to come out here, capture you, and bring you back alive.
Charles Widmore tell you to kill my daughter? Hey! How'd he get the toolbox? Damn it.
Who gave you the toolbox, Frank? Hey! Whoa, whoa! You're good right there.
Who are you? I'm Kate.
I'm one of the passengers of Flight 815.
- Why are you running? - I'm being chased.
By his people.
Kocol, LaCour, Redfern on flank.
Come here.
Get on your knees.
Hands above your heads, both of you.
Now! Spray it! Ben, stay close.
Run! Run.
Grenade! Get up.
Come on, get up.
Thank you for coming, Richard.
My pleasure.
Could you cut me free, Kate? What was the arrangement? They help us free you, and we let them off the island.
Fair enough.
The helicopter is yours.
You and Sayid have a safe journey back.
So we can go? Off the island? That's it? That's it.
Thank you, miss.
Are you Hurley? Yeah.
Are you dangerous? I'm sorry, do I know you? No.
You don't know me, but you know my grandson.
Now, we've travelled all the way across country just so he could see you.
I need to know if you're gonna do anything crazy.
I won't do anything crazy.
Hey, Walt.
Hey, Hurley.
You're getting big, dude.
You know, when you came back, I was waiting for one of you to come see me, but nobody did.
I'm sorry.
Do you know who did come see me? Jeremy Bentham.
I don't understand why you're all lying.
We're lying because it's the only way to protect everyone that didn't come back.
Like my dad? Like your dad.
Yeah.
What the hell are they talking about in there anyway? I don't know.
Leader stuff.
- Where'd you get that? - Came from a box Ben dug up.
They're good.
Thanks for coming back for me.
You got it.
Claire and the baby OK? What did you want to talk to me about, John? I want you to reconsider leaving the island, Jack.
I would like you to stay.
- You'd like me to stay? - Yeah.
That's right.
You threw a knife into the back of an unarmed woman.
You led half of our people across the island - and got most of them killed.
- You put a gun to my head and you pulled the trigger.
I was hoping we could let bygones be bygones.
Well, I'II tell you what.
You stay here in your little greenhouse, but the rest of us are going home.
- But you're not supposed to go home.
- What am I supposed to do? Well, I think I remember.
What was it that you said on the way to the hatch, - that crashing here was our destiny - You know, Jack.
You know that you're here for a reason.
You know it.
And if you leave this place that knowledge is gonna eat you alive from the inside out until you decide to come back.
Goodbye, John.
You're gonna have to lie.
Excuse me? If you have to go, then you have to lie about everything.
Everything that happened since we got to the island.
It's the only way to protect it.
It's an island, John.
No one needs to protect it.
It's not an island.
It's a place where miracles happen.
And if you don't believe that, Jack, if you can't believe that just wait till you see what I'm about to do.
There's no such thing as miracles.
Well we'II just have to see which one of us is right.
Am I interrupting? Nice to see you too, Jack.
- Couldn't find the anthuriums.
- I don't know what they look like.
What are you doing? Didn't you tell him? I tried.
Sayid and Kate are waiting for you at the helicopter.
I understand your people from the beach are being brought to the freighter.
- What? - I'd love to fill you in, Jack, but you, Hugo, James need to get moving.
If I were you, I'd want to be on that boat within the hour.
Goodbye, Jack.
Let's go.
Lie to them, Jack.
If you do it half as well as you lie to yourself, they'II believe you.
Michael? What's going on down there? Have you told anybody? No, Michael, I didn't.
Can you turn it off? It isn't even on yet.
But, yeah, if what's in this tank does what it's supposed to do, we're gonna be OK.
Look, I'II send Jin upstairs 'cause no need for him to be down there when he can be up here with you.
I'm pregnant.
Congratulations, Sun.
- You're gonna what? - Freeze it.
This is liquid nitrogen.
We use it in the refrigeration hold.
The bomb needs a charge from the battery to detonate it, right? And the battery runs on a chemical reaction.
I spray the battery, I can keep it cold, no reaction.
Well, what's the catch? The catch is we only have one canister.
We use it up, we're right back where we started.
Well, shouldn't we save it till the light turns red? If we see that light turn red and the battery's not already cold, that is the last thing we'II ever see.
Either way, at least we'II have a warning, - buy ourselves some time.
- All right.
Freeze the battery.
Jin, help me trace back these wires, make a list of where each of them goes to.
Boat! Thank you.
- You get them all to the boat? - Everybody's safe.
- Coming closer? - Fixed the engine.
They're gonna get as close as they can.
Next trip shouldn't take so long.
I'II get water, back in a minute.
- I'II get the next group ready to go.
- Thank you.
- Dan! - Yeah? Thanks for helping us.
Absolutely.
OK, let's go! Who told you you could eat those peanuts? May I eat these peanuts? I'm gonna keep my eye on you, Shorty.
Miles.
- Something wrong with your neck? - Follow me, please.
Dan, you're back.
- What's wrong? - I'm leaving in ten minutes, taking the next group to the freighter.
Make sure you're with me on that raft.
Don't worry about me 'cause I'm gonna stay.
Miles, no.
I don't think I'm getting across - the direness of the circumstance.
- You're very dire, but I'm still gonna stay.
- Ten minutes.
- Yeah.
I'm surprised you want to leave.
Sorry? It's just weird, after all that time you spent trying to get back here.
What do you mean "get back here"? What do I mean? How deep is this station? Deep.
Is this the magic box? No, John, it's not.
What is all this stuff for? Same things that all the Dharma stations are for: Silly experiments.
What kind of experiments? You know what, John? Why don't you watch this very informative video that will answer some of your questions.
And I'II take care of some business.
Hello, I'm Dr Edgar Halliwax, and this is the orientation film for station six of the Dharma Initiative.
As you've no doubt surmised, station six, or The Orchid, is not a botanical research unit.
The unique properties of this island have created a kind of Casimir effect, allowing the Dharma Initiative to conduct unique experiments in both space and time.
This is the vault, constructed adjacent to a pocket of what we believe to be negatively charged exotic matter.
Great care must be taken to avoid leaving inorganic materials inside the chamber.
The electromagnetic energy within the island can be highly volatile and unpredictable.
Now, for your own safety and the safety of those around you, metallic objects must never be placed within the vault.
In our first demonstration, we will attempt to shift the test subject 100 milliseconds ahead in four-dimensional space.
For the briefest of moments the animal will seem to disappear but in reality Was he talking about what I think he was talking about? If you mean time-travelling bunnies, then yes.
You do know he said specifically not to put anything metal in here.
You expecting someone? May I have my weapon back? Sayid! Kate! Good to see you, dude.
Did he say something to tick you off, Freckles? - Didn't kill that one.
- Which one did you kill? - Where's the baby? - He's with Sun.
They should be at the freighter by now.
Are you OK? I am now.
Hey, Kenny Rogers.
What you trying to do there, pick a lock? You got a better idea? Hacksaw.
For the handcuffs, right? OK.
Take it easy.
Sayid, how'd you get back? I took the Zodiac from the freighter.
Is it safe? A body from the boat washed up on the beach.
It's safe now.
All right! Let's get the hell out of here! Let's go, Freckles.
I've seen enough of this rock.
After we drop everyone off we can come back and look for Claire? Absolutely.
Hands and feet inside the vehicle! Let's go for a ride! I think I might have something.
OK, so If I cut this wire, it should disconnect the firing mechanisms.
Stop! No good.
Damn it! I just don't know enough.
How do we even know your freezing trick's doing anything? We'II know if that light turns red and we're still here.
How much stuff do you have left? We got a quarter tank.
What happens if we can't deactivate the bomb? We better get everybody the hell off this boat.
- What's the matter? - We're losing fuel.
- What?! - We're losing fuel! Look outside, tell me if you see anything! We have a fuel leak.
A bullet must have pierced the tank.
We gotta find a place to set her down.
- Don't land! No fuel on the island! - What? We gotta get to the boat or this chopper's useless! - I'm telling you, I don't see the boat.
- Then keep looking! We gotta get every ounce of extra weight off this chopper now! Anything not bolted down toss it out! Now what? Is that enough? Do we make it? I'd feel a hell of a lot better if we were a few hundred pounds lighter.
If we don't make it we're close enough to ditch it on the beach.
- Do not go back to the island! - We might not have a choice, doc.
Hey.
I want you to find her, tell her I'm sorry.
Why are you telling me this? Just do it, Freckles.
Sawyer! Hey, Charlotte! Listen, I wanted to say, - before you get on the boat, please - I'm gonna stay, Daniel.
For now, anyway.
Charlotte.
There is no "for now".
If you don't come with me, "for now" could be forever.
Nothing's forever.
Why? Would it make any sense if I told you I was still looking for where I was born? No.
Goodbye, Daniel.
Let me guess, you're not coming.
I promised I wouldn't leave until I got everyone here safely off this island.
Relax.
I'II still be here when you get back.
Right, right.
When I get back.
OK.
Everybody ready? Let's get started.
Off we go.
I know you're down here, Ben crouching in the dark just waiting to take a shot at me.
Well, you better aim for the head, Ben.
Not like your boyfriend, who shot me in the back like a coward.
This body armour has been known to take a bullet or two in its time.
But before you take your shot, Ben let me tell you about this.
See there? I took out a bit of a life insurance policy, Ben.
It's a heart rate monitor.
It's connected to a radio transmitter.
We call it a dead man's trigger, Ben.
If my heart stops beating, it sends a little signal to the 500 pounds of C4 that I've got hard-wired out there on the freighter.
That'd kill a lot of innocent people.
If you think I'm bluffing, need I remind you of how your daughter looked as she bled out.
Face down in the grass.
Who the hell are you? My name is John Locke.
And I have no conflict with you.
And neither do the people on that boat.
So why don't you put your knife down.
We can talk about this.
Well, John Locke l've never really been one for talk You killed my daughter.
- You killed my daughter! - Ben! Ben, stop! Stop! Ben, what did you do? You just killed everybody on that boat.
So?
