[The hunting party is talking to Tom Friendly.]
Just sit down, Jack. Nobody's going to hurt you. I come in peace.
How do you know our names?
[Tom smiles]
You took Walt.
Walt's fine. He's a very special boy.
Look, you said you wanted to talk. Talk.
Let me ask you something. How long you been here on the island?
50 days.
Oooo, 50 days. That's what, almost 2 whole months, huh? Tell me, you go over a man's house for the first time, do you take off your shoes? Do you put your feet up on his coffee table? Do you walk in the kitchen, eat food that doesn't belong to you? [to Locke] Open the door to rooms you got no business opening? [to all] You know, somebody a whole lot smarter than anybody here once said: "Since the dawn of our species man's been blessed with curiosity." You know the other one about curiosity, don't you, Jack? This is not your island. This is our island. And the only reason you're living on it...is 'cause we let you live on it.
[smiling] I don't believe you.
You don't believe what?
I think you've got one guy up there with a gun. I think there's more of us than there are of you. I think if you had any real strength, you wouldn't have had to send a spy -- Ethan.
That's an interesting theory. [raising his arms and yelling] Light 'em up!
[torches all around the survivors are lit]
We've got a misunderstanding, Jack -- your people, my people. So listen carefully. Right here, there's a line. You cross that line, we go from misunderstanding to something else. Now, give me your weapons, turn around, go home.
No.
Jack, maybe...
No!
I hoped it wouldn't come to this. [yelling] Bring her out, Alex!
[A figure with a bag over their head is pushed out]
She was following you. Like I said -- curiosity.
[Tom pulls the bag off the figure's head, revealing Kate. He puts a gun to her neck. Sawyer moves toward them]
[to Sawyer] Don't. [to Jack] Jack, the decision you gotta make right now is this -- can you live with the fact that I shot this woman right in front of you when you could have saved her life by giving up and going home? Or are you going to give me your guns, turn around and walk away. It's your call, Jack.
