[to Jack] But the first piece of land I saw wasn't Fiji was it, no... No it was here, this... this island. And you know why?
[Jack shakes his head]
Because this, is it. This is all there is left. This ocean, and this place here, we are stuck in a bloody snowglobe!
[to Desmond about the Dickens book] Enjoy your sodding book.
[to Desmond] I need your boat.
I wouldn't waste your time. There's nothing out there pal.
I'm not going out there. I need to get to the north shore of the island, and quickly.
Off to see the hostiles are ya?
The what?
You know what? Ignorance is bliss.
[To Sun] I'm sorry if what I said was unclear. But I asked Jin to come.
You need someone to translate. And you also need at least two people who know how to sail.
Desmond managed on his own.
And look where he ended up.
What did one snowman say to the other snowman?
"Smells like carrots."
Hello, Desmond.
"Hello" yourself, box man.
Did that bird just say my name?
Yeah it did, right before it crapped gold.
When the Doc told me you all got caught in a net, I thought he meant, er- something else.
Since when did you and Jack start talking about me?
(about the "foot") I do not know what is more disquieting---the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has four toes.
What are you running from, Desmond?
I have to get my honor back. And that's what I'm running to.
John! Eko is very upset, John!
John, look, seriously, you are about to be detonated!
[Eko is about to detonate the dynamite inside the hatch to blow open the blast door]
Eko, wait. Just wait a second. I-I don't think it's a good idea, Eko. We're in a very confined area. [Eko lights the fuse, and ducks behind the wall] Oh, bollocks!
[to Desmond] The Pearl is a psychological station, full of TV monitors. And uh, two men sat in viewing chairs and filled notebooks, with observations on what happens in here. And then they put the notebooks in pneumatic tubes, sent 'em back to their headquarters, so they could evaluate us, as an experiment.
[Desmond sighs and walks around the room]
What?
What if you've got it backwards?
"Backwards"?
What if the experiment wasn't on the two men in [The Swan] but on the two men in [The Pearl]?
[Desmond is studying the print-out taken from The Pearl]
What are you doing?
... When did you come here?
What?
The island. When did you come here? How long ago?
Sixty, sixty-five days-
What was the date, what was the date?
September 22nd. It was September 22nd.
I think I crashed your plane.
On that day, those numbers turned to hieroglyphics, and this whole place just starting shakin', and that screen- that screen filled up with 'SYSTEM FAILURE', see, here, 'SYSTEM FAILURE, SYSTEM FAILURE', September 22nd, 2004, the day your plane crashed, it's real, it's all bloody real now PUSH THE DAMN BUTTON!
