"Previously on Lost:" "The only way to save the island is to get your people back." "The chopper was headed for the boat." " The boat..." " They're fine." "They're already home." " You convince them to come back." " How am I supposed to do that?" "You're gonna have to die, John." "You're going down there?" " What exactly are you hoping to find?" " A way off the island." "Once you get all of your friends, it must be all of them, everyone who left, once you've persuaded them to join you," "Eloise Hawking will tell you exactly how to come back." "Richard said I was going to die." "That's why they call it "sacrifice"." "Caesar." "Ilana." " What's up?" " Find anything?" " No." "Nothing useful." " Then what'd you put in your bag?" "If you want it, it's yours." "We found someone." "A man." " What?" " Roxanne was scouting south of here." "And he was just standing in the water." "He's wearing a suit." " Nobody recognises him?" " No." "He didn't come with us." "How do we know he isn't one who disappeared?" " He's not." " And how do you know?" "Because he wasn't on the plane." " What did this man have to say?" " You can ask him yourself." " Hello." " Hello." "My name is Caesar." "What's yours?" "My name is John Locke." "Morning." "Hello." "Breakfast?" " We found a tree." "They're pretty good." " Much obliged." " I'm Ilana." " John." "Are those your boats?" "No." "They were already here." "There used to be three, but the pilot and some woman took one." "Didn't tell anyone, just ran off in the middle of the night." " The pilot that brought you here?" " Yes." "That's right." "Do you have a passenger list?" "You'll have to talk to Caesar." "I think this is the best mango I've ever eaten." "Nobody remembers you being on the plane." "I don't remember either." " What do you remember?" " I remember a lot." "Like why you're dressed up so nice?" " No, but I can guess." " Please." "Guess." "I think this suit is what they were going to bury me in." " Sorry?" " You asked what I remembered." "I remember dying." "Good luck, John." "Say hello to my son." "Who's your son?" "If anybody is there, can you help me?" "!" "Where is this?" "Where are we?" "Where am I?" "Sir, where am I?" "Who are you?" "Where am I?" "Do you speak English?" "You swallow." "Swallow." "Where are we?" "You bite." "Bite!" "John..." "Wake up." "You had a compound fracture." "The doctors did their best, but I had a specialist flown in to reset your leg properly." "It's nice to see you again, John." " Do I know you?" " Yes." "I understand your being confused." "Imagine how I feel." "I met you when I was 17." "Now all these years later, here we are." "You look exactly the same." " Who are you?" " My name is Charles Widmore." "Tell me, John how long has it been for you since we first met?" "Since you walked into our camp and you spoke to Richard?" " Four days." " That's incredible." "The camera in the desert." "That was yours?" "Yeah." " How did you know I'd be there?" " That's the exit." "I was afraid Benjamin might fool you into leaving the island, as he did me." "I was their leader." " The Others?" " They're not "Others" to me." "They're my people." "We protected the island peacefully, for more than three decades." "But then I was exiled." "By him." " Just as you were." " No." "Ben wasn't even there when I left." "He was already gone." "I..." "I wasn't exiled, I chose to leave." "Why... would you do that, John?" "You've come to bring them back, the ones who left?" "No." "I understand your lying to me, I do." "But there's something you should know." "All your friends who left the island they've been back three years." " Three years?" " They've gone back to normal lives." "And none of them has spoken a word of truth about where they were." "I have to bring them back." "I'm going to do everything in my power to help you do that." "Why?" " Why?" " Why would you help me?" "Because there's a war coming." "And if you're not back on the island when that happens the wrong side is going to win." " "Jeremy Bentham?"" " He was a British philosopher." "Your parents had a sense of humour when they named you." "So why can't I?" "That should be money enough for now." "The phone's international." "If you need to reach me, for anything, just press 2-3." "The folder contains your people's whereabouts." "Everyone that was on the island that left." "You've been watching them?" "I'm deeply invested in the future of the island, John." "Yes, I've been watching them." "I wouldn't mention I'm involved." "I can't imagine what they think of me," " having listened to Benjamin's lies." " How do I know you're not lying?" "I haven't tried to kill you." "Can you say the same for him?" " You still don't trust me." " You sent a team of killers and a boatload of C-4 to the island." "That doesn't exactly scream "trust"." "I needed Linus removed." "So it could be your time." " Right." " The island needs you, John." "It has for a long time." "What makes you think I'm so special?" "Because you are." "Your chariot has arrived." " He said I would die." " Beg your pardon?" "Richard Alpert said the only way to get them to come back was if I died." "I don't know why he said that, but I'm not going to let that happen." "This is Matthew Abaddon." "He'll take you anywhere you need to go." "Protect you from whomever intends to do you harm." "Mr Locke." "Good luck, John." "Godspeed." "Anything you need, Mr Locke, you just let me know." "Anything." "Anybody from your past you want me to look up for you?" "The world thinks you're dead." "There must be somebody happy to see you." " Please don't talk to me." " You got it." "We're almost at the airport, tell me where we're going first." "Santo Domingo." "Sayid!" "I don't believe this." "You actually want me to go back?" "I know how it sounds." "But you have to trust me." " This is the only way to save them." " I'm not going back." "Two years I was manipulated into thinking I was protecting everyone." "Who was manipulating you?" "Ben." " So who is manipulating you, John?" " This is coming from me, nobody else." "I know you, Sayid." "In your heart, you know we never should have left the island." "Because I left the island I was finally able to marry the woman I loved." "We spent nine months together." "The best nine months of my life, John." "That's what I know in my heart." "Where is she now?" "She was murdered." "I'm sorry." "Why do you really need to go back?" "Is it just because you have nowhere else to go?" "If you change your mind, I'll be under the name Jeremy Bentham in LA at the Westerfield Hotel." "And if you change your mind, you are welcome to come back here and do some real good." "Goodbye, John." "You asked if there was someone you could look up for me." "Yes, I did." "Her name is Helen." "Helen Norwood." "She was living in Los Angeles." "She an old girlfriend of yours?" "Help me out of the car." "That's Michael Dawson's son?" "Yeah." "Boy's gotten big." "I'm gonna be right back." "I'll give you two some privacy." " Hey, John." " Hi, Walt." " What happened?" " I hurt my leg." "You don't seem surprised to see me." "I've been having dreams about you." "You're on the island wearing a suit." "And there are people all around you." " They wanted to hurt you, John." " Good thing they're just dreams." "Is my dad..." "is he back on the island?" "I haven't talked to him in three years." "I figured he must have gone back." "Last I heard, your dad was on a freighter near the island." "Why'd you come to see me?" "I wanted to make sure you were OK." "Yeah." "I'm doing pretty good." "I gotta go." "It was good seeing you, John." "Take care." "I take it you didn't invite him along." " Boy's been through enough." " That's 0 for 2, Mr Locke." "Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought you had to bring everyone back." "I only need to convince one." "If I can do that, the rest will come." "Maybe I was mistaken, but I thought you were my driver." "Hello, Hugo." "So you didn't make it." " Pardon me?" " You didn't make it." "It's cool, no biggie." "You're not the first person to visit me." "But what's up with the wheelchair?" " I broke my leg falling down a hole." " Is that how you died?" "Hugo, I'm not dead." " Sure you're not." " I promise you," "I'm very much alive." "Hey, Susie." "Am I talking to a dude in a wheelchair right now?" "Yeah." "What are you doing here?" "I need you to come back to the island with me." " Wait..." "What?" " Not just you." "Everybody who left." " You mean Jack and Kate..." " Everybody." "Sorry, dude, I don't think that's gonna happen." "Jack's a doctor now." "And Sun's got her baby." "And Kate's got Aaron..." "Dude." "Be cool." "Don't look, but we're being watched." "Dude!" "Don't worry, he's with me." " What?" " He's driving me around." "He's OK." "That dude is far from OK." "When I first got locked up in here, he showed up claiming that he worked for Oceanic Air." "He's evil!" " You should not be trusting that guy." " Listen..." " No!" "I'm not listening to you!" " Hugo, please!" "Listen..." "I want to go back in!" " Hugo!" " I'm not going anywhere!" "Go away!" " Bye!" "Get out of here!" " It's OK." "That's three visits now." "You may want to step up your game, Mr Locke." "Or we're all in serious trouble." "What exactly is it that you do for Mr Widmore, Matthew?" "You're ready to talk about it?" "John..." "You're not really gonna pretend you don't remember that I was an orderly in the hospital right after your accident?" "That I was the one who told you to go on your walkabout?" "The same walkabout that put you on the plane that crashed on that island?" "No." "I remember." "I help people get to where they need to get to, John." "That's what I do for Mr Widmore." "The answer is no." " Kate, I don't think you under..." " You made yourself perfectly clear." "Everyone on the island is going to die if I don't go back." " And the answer is no." " Why?" "Don't you care about them?" " You ever been in love, John?" " What?" "I think about you sometimes." "I think about how desperate you were to stay on that island." "And then I realised it was all because you didn't love anybody." "That's not true." "I loved someone once." "Her name was Helen." "What happened?" "It just didn't work out." "Why not, John?" "I was angry." "I was obsessed." "Look how far you've come." " Let me help you, Mr Locke." " Did you find her?" " Find who?" " Helen Norwood." " The woman I asked you about." " No, I didn't." "I'm sorry." "Three years is a long time." "It's possible she got married, changed her name, moved..." "You found everyone else." "All of them." "Sayid was in the middle of nowhere." "You can't find Helen because she moved?" "Your job is to get people to where they need to get to?" "I need to get to her." "What happened to her?" "She died of a brain aneurysm." "I'm very sorry, Mr Locke." "She loved me." "If I had just..." "We could have been together." "Maybe you could have." "But that wouldn't change anything." "She'd still be gone." "Would she?" "Helen is where she's supposed to be." "Sad as it is, her path led here." "Your path, no matter what you did or what you do, your path leads back to the island." "You say that like it's all..." "inevitable." "Mr Widmore told me Richard Alpert said that you were going to die." "So you tell me, John..." "Is that inevitable," " or is it a choice?" " You think I want to die?" "How is that..." "How could you possibly think that's a choice?" "I'm just a driver." "Matthew!" "What are you doing here?" "Jack, how did you find me?" "You were in a car accident." "You were brought in to my hospital." "What are you doing here?" "We have to go back." "Of course." " Of course we do." " The people I left behind need help." " We're supposed to go back." " Because it's our "destiny"?" "How many times are you going to say that?" "How can you not see it?" "Of all the hospitals, I end up here?" "You don't think that's fate?" "Your car accident was on the west side of Los Angeles." "You being brought in to my hospital isn't fate." " John, it's probability." " You don't understand." "It wasn't an accident." "Somebody is trying to kill me." " Why would someone try to kill you?" " They don't want me to succeed." "They want to stop me." "They don't want me to get back because I'm important." "Have you ever stopped to think that these delusions that you're special aren't real?" "That maybe there's nothing important about you at all?" "Maybe you are just a lonely old man that crashed on an island." "That's it." "Goodbye, John." "Your father says hello." "What?" "A man..." "The man who told me to move the island, how to bring you all back..." "He said to tell his son "hello"." "It couldn't have been Sayid's." "It wasn't Hurley's." "That leaves you." "He said his name was Christian." "My..." "My father is dead." " Well, he didn't look dead to me." " He died in Australia, three years ago, I put him in the coffin!" "He's dead." "Jack." "Please." "You have to come back." "You're the only one who can convince them!" "You have to help me." " You're supposed to help me!" " John, it's over!" "It's done." "We left." "And we were never important." "So you... you leave me alone." "And you leave the rest of them alone!" "John?" "John, what are you doing?" "Wait!" "Please, John, stop!" " How did you find me?" " I have a man watching Sayid..." "I'm watching all of them, keeping them safe." "When you turned up, he called me." "Who?" "What are you doing here?" " Calm down." " What do you want?" "!" " Please let me help..." " Answer the question!" "I'm trying to protect you!" "Protect me?" "You shot him." " You killed Abaddon." " Yes." "Yes, I did." "But it was only a matter of time before he tried to kill you." "I was trying to get to you but you drove off and crashed." " Why would..." " He was working for Charles Widmore." " He's extremely dangerous..." " No!" "Widmore came to me." " He saved me." " No, he used you." "He waited till you showed up so that you could help him get to the island." "Charles Widmore is the reason I moved the island!" "So that he could never find it again." "To keep him away so that you could lead." "You can't do this." "If anything happens to you..." "John, you have no idea how important you are." "Let me help you." "There is no helping me." "I'm..." " I'm a failure." " No you're not." "I am!" "I couldn't get any of them." "I couldn't get a single one to come back with me." " I can't "lead" anyone." " Jack booked a ticket." "What?" "A plane ticket from Los Angeles to Sydney tonight." "Return trip first thing in the morning." "Whatever you said to him, John?" "It worked." "And if you got Jack?" "You can get the rest of them." "John..." "You can't die." "You've got too much work to do." "We've got to get you back to that island so you can do it." "Please, John." "Come on." "Come down." "I know we can do this, John." "You haven't even been to Sun yet." " Let's start with her." " No." "I..." "I promised Jin I wouldn't bring her back." "Jin is alive?" "Yeah." "But he doesn't want her to know." "He wanted me to tell her that his body washed up on the beach." "He gave me his wedding ring to prove it." "All right." "A promise is a promise." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Come on." "Here." "Let's go." "I know we can do this." "Once we can get them all in the same place," "I don't know where we go from there, but we'll figure something out." "I know where we go." "There's a woman, here in Los Angeles." " A woman?" " Yeah." "I don't know exactly where, but she shouldn't be that hard to find." "Her name is EIoise Hawking." " Eloise Hawking?" "You sure?" " Yeah." "Why, do you know her?" "Yes, John." "I know her." "I'll miss you, John." "I really will." "That symbol belongs to an organisation called the Dharma Initiative." "They were conducting some experiments here a while back." " How do you know that?" " I spent 100 days on this island." " I know a lot." " A hundred days?" "So when we crashed, you were already here?" "No." "I left." "How long ago did you leave?" "The timing would just confuse you." "Well, how'd you get back?" "To be honest, that part's a bit of a mystery to me." "OK, John Locke." "I have a mystery, too." " Maybe you can help me with it?" " I'm happy to try." "On the plane, I was sitting across the aisle from that big guy with curly hair." "When the plane started shaking, really shaking, there was a big noise and a bright light." "And this big guy with curly hair..." "was gone, man." "I mean literally gone." "And it wasn't only him." "Some of us saw it happen to other people." "So, Mr John Locke, do you have an idea about what happened?" "I think I might know how I came to be here." "But that would involve me finding my friends." "Do you have a passenger list?" " The pilot took it when he ran off." " And everyone's accounted for?" "All of the people, other than the ones who disappeared?" "Except for the people who got hurt." ""The people who got hurt?"" "You know him?" "Yeah." "He's the man who killed me."
