[Miles, Jin and Hurley follow Sawyers plan and start to head out towards the beach. Suddenly they hear something. Jin and Miles raise their weapons, but notice that it's Miles' dad - Dr. Chang who has come to meet them. They lower their weapons]
Dr. Chang? What are you doing here?
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 briefly glances over at Miles and Jin and then turns to Dr. Chang]
Oh really. What year were you born?
[Eyeing Hurley] You're 46?
That means you must have fought in the Korean War?
[nervous] There's no such thing...
Ok, we're from the future.
[Hurley turns to Miles and Jin]
[Richard Alpert sits in his tent fixing a model ship in what appears to be a large glass bottle. An Other enters his tent to inform him of John Locke's return]
O Other
Richard. He's back!
[They exit Richard's tent, coming up the beach is John Locke carrying a boar over his shoulders]
[Confused and shocked] John?
[Locke chucks the dead boar in the sand]
Hello Richard. It's been a while.
It's...been three years. John what happened? Where were you?
I'll explain that on the way.
On the way? On the way where?
It's going to be night soon and you and I have an errand to run and we don't have a lot of time. [Pause] What's wrong?
There's something different about you.
[Ben and Sun watch on from afar as Locke talks to Richard in The Others camp]
Who's that man that John's talking to?
He's Richard Alpert. He's a kind of...advisor. And he has had that job for a very, very long time.
[Sun takes off her rucksack and unzips it talking out the picture of the 1977 Dharma recruits in which Jack, Kate and Hurley feature. She drops the bag and heads into the camp, towards Richard and Locke]
[Ben follows her]
[To Richard] Where you here in 1977?
[Sun shows Richard the photo]
These people. Jack Shepard, Kate Austen and Hugo Reyes, they were here with my husband Jin Kwon. Were you here? Do you remember them? Any of them?
Yes, I was here 30 years ago and yes I do remember these people. I remember meeting them very clearly because...I watched them all die.
[Having been caught by the 1977 version of The Others. Jack and Kate sit alone in a tent and discuss Faraday's plan]
Before we got captured you said that we had to put things back the way they were meant to be. What did you mean by that?
If we can do what Faraday said our plane never crashes. Flight 815 lands in Los Angeles and everyone we lost since we got here, they'd all be alive.
And what about us? We just go on living our lives because we never met.
All the misery that we have been through would just wipe clean, like it never happened.
When I left the Island, John stepped in. He's the leader now.
Who's that man he's talking to?
His name is Richard Alpert. He's a kind of... adviser. And he has had that job for a very, very long time.
Your friend Faraday said that you were from the future. I need to know if he was telling the truth.
HR Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
Dude, that's ridiculous.
What year were you born? What year?
HR Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
Uh... 1931?
HR Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
Yeah. Yes, I am.
So you fought in the Korean War?
HR Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
[beat] There's... no such thing.
Who's the President of the United States?
HR Hugo "Hurley" Reyes
[beat] All right, dude, we're from the future. Sorry.
Since when did shooting kids and blowing up hydrogen bombs become okay?
Do you know who you sound like? Because he was crazy, too, Jack.
[as John Locke] I'm not interested in being reunited with my people.
What do you mean? You told Sun--
I know what I told her, but that's not why we're going to Jacob.
Then why are we going to Jacob?
