Miles Straume quotes from Lost

You're playing for the wrong team!

Miles Straume

Yeah? What team are you on?

The one that's gonna win.

I used to hate my dad, too.

Miles Straume

Yeah?

He left when I was 10. But the best thing I ever did was give him a second chance. We got to be the best of friends, and although I may never see him again, I miss him. And I know he feels the same.

Miles Straume

My dad didn't leave when I was 10. I--I was a baby. I never knew him. And I don't want to. It's not happening.

That was Luke's attitude, too.

Miles Straume

What?

In Empire, Luke found out Vader was his father, but instead of putting away his lightsaber and talking about it, he overreacted and got his hand cut off. I mean, they worked it out eventually, but at what cost? Another Death Star was destroyed, Boba Fett got eaten by the Sarlacc, and we got the Ewoks. It all could've been avoided if they'd just, you know, communicated. And let's face it. The Ewoks sucked, dude.

Faraday

Hey Jack, how did you get back? How did you do it, how did you get back to the island?

Jack

Dan, wow....where have you been?

Dan

I've been at Dharma Headquarters in Ann Arbor, I was doing some research, but whats more important right now, how did you get back here, to 1977?

Jack

What's going on?

Miles

Hey don't look at me, I just carried his luggage.

Faraday

Jack. How?

Jack

We were on a plane and then...

Faraday

And who told you to get on that plane?

Jack

As a matter of fact Daniel it was your mother.

Faraday

And how did she convince you Jack? Did she tell you it was your destiny?

Jack

Yeah thats exactly what she said.

Faraday

Well I got some bad news for you Jack, you don't belong here at all. She was wrong.

Sawyer

Hold your horses, I'll be right there.

Faraday

Hey James.

Sawyer

Welcome to the meeting Twitchy. Good to see you again. Come in, pound cake's in the kitchen, help yourself to the punch.

Sawyer

Is he still crazy?

Miles

It's on a whole new level man.

Sawyer

[Sarcastically] Great!

Miles

Dr. Chang? What are you doing here?

Dr. Chang

I could ask you the same question. [Pause] Please I must know is what your friend Faraday said true? Are you from the future?

Hurley

Dude that's ridiculous.

Dr. Chang

Oh really. What year were you born?

Hurley

Erm....1931.

Dr. Chang

[Eyeing Hurley] You're 46?

Hurley

Yeah.....Yes I am.

Dr. Chang

That means you must have fought in the Korean War?

Hurley

[nervous] There's no such thing...

Dr. Chang

Who is the US President?

Hurley

Ok, we're from the future.

Hurley

Sorry dudes.

Miles

So nothing? there wasn't anything? No white light? Angels singing? No dead relatives?

Sayid

I remember being shot

Hurley

You're not a zombie, right?

Sayid

No. I'm not a zombie.

Miles

Oh, that Australian chick's back.

Kate

Wait, what?

Miles

You know that blonde, with the baby.

Kate

Claire?

Miles

Right, Claire. She just strolled in here couple hours ago, acting all weird... Still hot, though.

Miles

Hey I thought you might want something to eat. I'm afraid all we have is banana and these little green bean things.

Ben

You know I'm not really that hungry.

Miles

Suit yourself.

Ben

Miles! You know you once asked me for 3.2 Million Dollars?

Miles

Yeah.

Ben

You still want it?

Miles

Why would I want your money when there's two people buried right over there called Nikki and Paulo who are buried with 8 Million Dollars worth of diamonds.

Ben

Miles please? If you help free me, when we all leave this place I'll get it for you, all of it. I have contacts that will get it for me.

Miles

Yeah right. What you going to do? Write me a check on this banana leaf?

Ilana Verdansky

This is what's left of Jacob's body. So tell me, Miles, how did he die?

Miles Straume

Linus killed him.

Ilana Verdansky

What?

Ben Linus

That's not true.

Ilana Verdansky

Are you sure?

Miles Straume

Well, he was standing over Jacob's dead body with a bloody dagger, so yeah, I'm pretty sure.

Miles Straume

Why would I need your money when there are a couple of jabonies under there named Nikki and Paulo who got buried alive with $8 million in diamonds on top of them?

Ben Linus

I can't believe you're just gonna stand by and watch this happen. Ilana's gonna murder me for killing Jacob; A man who didn't even care about being killed!

Miles Straume

No, he cared.

Ben Linus

Excuse me?

Miles Straume

Right up until the second the knife went through his heart, he was hoping he was wrong about you. I guess he wasn't.

Richard Alpert

A while back, Jacob told me what the Island was, and if he's really standing here right next to me, then just ask him.

I don't have to prove anything to you, Richard. You either come with me or you can keep trying to blow stuff up. Your call, dude.

Richard Alpert

He's lying. Jacob isn't telling us what to do. Because Jacob never tells us what to do. I'm going to make this simple. If that thing leaves the island, that's it. I-it's over.

Miles Straume

What's over?

Richard Alpert

Everything.

Miles

You sure this is a shortcut?

Ben

I lived in these houses a long time, Miles. I think I can remember how to get there.

Miles

Yeah well, I lived in these houses thirty years before you did; otherwise known as last week. And I have no idea where the hell we are.

Ben

Guess it's a good thing you're following me.

Miles

What's in there? A secret-er room?

Ben

It was the room I used to summon The Monster. But that was before I realized it was summoning me.

Ben

Well Richard, I don't know how much we need. Are we planning on disabling the plane or blow it to hell?

Richard

Blow it to hell.

Ben

Than we'd better take it all.

Richard Alpert

I'm not interested in hiding. He's gonna find me sooner or later anyway. I'd rather have it over with.

Miles Straume

These are both great plans, but I'm gonna go with surviving. If you need us, we'll be running through the jungle.
