[Jack and The Man in Black are meeting for the first time]
No, what bothers me is I have no idea what the hell you are.
Because he was stupid enough to believe he had been brought here for a reason. Because he pursued that belief until it got him killed. And because you were kind enough to bring his body back here in a nice little wooden box.
And he had to be dead before you could look like him?
And who else have you looked like?
Jack, what do you really want to ask me?
Our third day here, I chased my father through the jungle, my dead father. Was that you?
You needed to find water. Jack, I know this must be hard for you to understand, but all I've ever tried to do is help you.
To "help me?" To do what?
Leave! But because Jacob chose you you were trapped on this Island, before you even got here. Now Jacob's dead, we don't need to be trapped here. We can get on a plane and fly away anytime we want.
If we could just get on a plane and fly away, why would you even still be here?
Because it has to be all of us.
[Jack still looks uncertain]
John Locke was the only one of us who ever believed in this place. He did everything he could to keep us from leaving this Island.
John Locke was not a believer, Jack. He was a sucker.
Were you following us, Claire?
[Looking at Jack] Because he's my brother.
Looks like you two have a lot of catching up to do. I'll leave you to it.
Claire, I'm-- I'm sorry we--
Did he tell you? That he was the one pretending to be our father?
You know I pretty much gave up hoping that any of you would come back. And now that you're here...it's good to see you, Jack.
Yeah, it's good to see you too.
Well, I've never had much in the way of family so it really means a lot that you're coming with us.
Actually, I haven't decided if I'm coming with you.
You decided the moment you let him talk to you, just like the rest of us. So, whether you like it or not, you're with him now.
[Zoe, Widmore's associate, enters The Man in Black's camp]
ZZoe
You took something from us. We want him back.
I don't know what you're talking about.
[Zoe goes for her walkie, MIB's people take aim on her]
ZZoe
[On her walkie] Show them what we're capable of.
[A few seconds later, a mortar round lands behind The Man in Black, causing an explosion. He doesn't even twitch, unimtimidated. Zoe gives him a walkie]
ZZoe
You can call us on that when you're ready to return what you took.
[Zoe leaves. The Man in Black drops the walkie and crushes it with his stick]
[The group are on the sailboat to Hydra Island]
Because I remember how I felt the last time I left. Like a part of me was missing.
They got pills for that, doc.
We were brought here because we were supposed to do something, James. And if Locke-- if that thing wants us to leave, maybe it's because he's afraid of what happens if we stay.
You got a choice to make and you make it now. Either you're with you and you keep that damn crazy talk to yourself or you're going in the water.
James this is a mistake, and I know there's a part of you that feels that. The Island isn't done with us.
Yeah, well I'm done with this Island. So if you wanna take a leap of faith, take it. Get off my damn boat.
[Pause] I'm sorry I got Juliet killed. [Jack jumps off the boat]
[After Widmore attacks with mortars, The Man in Black carries a wounded Jack into the jungle]
Don't worry, Jack. Everything's going to be okay. You're with me, now.
