The Man In Black and Sawyer in “Recon”

[The Man In Black leads his group through the jungle.]

The Man In Black

About a quarter mile ahead there's a clearing. We'll make camp there. Everybody fill up on water. We might be there a couple of days.

Sawyer

A couple of days? I thought you said we were getting off this rock?

Sawyer

When?

[Some people within the group notice this dispute. The Man In Black notices them watching him and Sawyer have their arguement]

The Man In Black

Maybe we should talk about this in private.

Sawyer

Great. Let's go.

[The Man In Black leads Sawyer into a jungle clearing away from the rest of the group]

The Man In Black

I wish you hadn't interrupted me.

Sawyer

[Sarcasticly] Oh I'm sorry... I forgot my manners.

The Man In Black

I forgive you.

Sawyer

Yeah right....So what happened back at the temple? How'd you know to rescue everybody from that smoke thing?

The Man In Black

I didn't rescue them. [Pause] I'm the smoke thing.

[Sawyer looks shocked and confused by the news]

Sawyer

You telling me you killed all of those people?

The Man In Black

I gave them the opportunity to leave peacefully and they didn't take it.

Sawyer

Why not?

The Man In Black

Because they're convinced that they're protecting the Island from me, when in fact all I want to do is leave. [Pause] So it's either kill or be killed. And I don't wanna be killed James.
