Why are we listening to Arzt?
Because I'm a doctor, and you're a hillbilly.

You're a damn high school science teacher.

[about the hatch] Best case scenario there's supplies -- worst case, we use it as a shelter.
Actually, Jack, I can think of much worse cases than that. You notice anything about this hatch? There's no handle. Could the reason for that be more obvious?! Maybe it was never meant to be opened from the outside.
S1 E23Exodus, Part One
You have three choices: run, hide... or die.
You know what? I'm going back.
Hey. I thought you wanted to help.
Yeah, I wanted to help, but that was before Montand lost his frickin' arm.
So, Arnzt.
No. Not Arnzt. Arzt. A-R-Z-T.
Sorry, man. Your name's hard to pronounce.
Well, I know a bunch of ninth graders who pronounce it just fine.
How 'bout I just call you by your first name?
How 'bout you don't?
Why not? I remember it from the plane's manifest. I think Leslie's a bitchin' name.
Arnzt is fine.
By the time you get back we'll be in the water. Guess this is pretty much goodbye, then.
Yeah, I guess it is. Good luck, Sawyer.
[pause] Jack! About a week before we all got on the plane I got to talking to this man in a bar in Sydney. He was American, too. A doctor. I've been on some benders in my time, but this guy he was going for an all time record. It turns out this guy has a son his son's a doctor, too. They had some kind of big time falling out. The guy knew it was his fault even though his son was back in the States thinking the same damn thing.
[starts to recognize who Sawyer's talking about]
See, kids are like dogs, you knock them around enough they'll think they did something to deserve it. Anyway, there's a pay phone in this bar. And this guy, Christian... tells me he wishes he had the stones to pick up the phone, call his kid, tell him he's sorry, that he's a better doctor than he'll ever be he's proud and he loves him. I had to take off, but something tells me he never got around to making that call. Small world, huh?
[unable to hold back tears] Yeah...
Good luck, Jack.
You booby-trapped your shelter with explosives. You have any more?
Dynamite, at the Black Rock, in the dark territory.

Well, that's 3 reasons to go right there.

[taking Kate's toy plane out of the Marshal's case] What's this, then?
That's a good story, you want to tell it, huh, Kate? [Mars takes the plane] This belonged to her childhood sweetheart, who she got killed a couple of years ago when she was on the run. Poor guy -- a wife, a 2 year old kid. What was his name? Hmm? Well, somewhere along the way during the 3 years that I was chasing her, she starts calling me, at my house, and whining on about her mitigating circumstances. But what she's really doing...is taunting me. So, I tell her that I've got whats-his-name's little toy airplane in a safe deposit box in New Mexico. So, she somehow figures out which bank, which safe deposit box. She seduces some idiot to rob the damn bank, and then she puts a bullet in her new friend because she's done using him. But she leaves all the money. She just takes the plane...because that's the one thing in the whole world that Kate does care about. She has no attachments, and I think she's telling herself she needs it to atone for killing her boyfriend, whats-his-name. God, Kate, c'mon, what was his name?

You singing Bob Marley?
No. [little pause] Why? You like Bob Marley?
Man, who doesn't like Bob Marley?
Did you hear about the guy who invented nitroglycerin? Probably not because he blew his freakin' face off! Nitroglycerin is the most unstable substance known to man. It is extremely temperamental so you have to be..
[Arzt unexpectedly explodes]
Dude...
[Arzt is blown up]
That was messed up.
You have some...Arzt...on you.
How exactly does something like this happen?
Are you on the same island as I am?
You know what? I'm -- I'm sorry, I'm so... I'm sorry that I'm not cool enough to be part of your merry little band of adventurers.
HRHugo "Hurley" Reyes
What?
I know a clique when I see it. I teach high school, pal-y. You know, you people think you're the only ones on this Island doing anything of value. I've got news for you. There were 40 other survivors of this plane crash. And we are all people, too.
Do any of you have any idea what happens to dynamite in 90+ degree heat, huh? [Arzt pries open the crate with a pocket knife] So you know? Any of you? It sweats nitroglycerin. [Jack starts moving toward him] Whoa, hey, what you doing? Did I ask you to come closer? [He removes a stick of dynamite from the crate] Dynamite is nitroglycerin stabilized by clay. Nitroglycerin is the most dangerous and unstable explosive known to man. Hey, Kate give me your shirt. Now, princess, give me your shirt. I need to wrap the dynamite. Just throw it to me, right here. Be careful, c'mon, hurry up. [She gives him her shirt] Okay, good, now back up, back up, back up. Just back up. Get out of my way. Any of you ever hear about the guy who invented nitroglycerin? Probably not -- because he blew his freaking face off. [Arzt wets Kate's shirt and wraps it around the dynamite] His lab assistant came into the room, saw that his mentor detonated, and he said, "Huh, I guess this stuff does work." Alright, we're not going to take any more of this stuff than we need because nitroglycerin is extremely temperamental, so we-
[Arzt waves the dynamite carelessly, causing it to detonate and blow himself up]
