“I know why you're here, friend. But you...” – Richard Malkin

I know why you're here, friend. But you can save yourself the trouble. What happened here was not a miracle.

Mr. Eko

The doctor that treated your daughter seems to feel differently.

Treated her? He tried to cut her open. He's just trying to cover up his own negligence. He tell you the whole story -- how she supposedly drowned? She fell into a mountain river, her body shut down; she went into hypothermia which made her appear dead.

Mr. Eko

And why is your wife so convinced otherwise?

Because she's a zealot. All of this -- everything she's doing -- is to spite me.

Mr. Eko

Why would she spite you?

Because she knows I'm a fraud. Because I make my living as a psychic. You see, that's what I do. I gather intelligence on people and I exploit it. Everyday I meet people looking for a miracle, desperate to find one. But there are none to be had. Not in this world, anyway.
