[Having been caught by the 1977 version of The Others. Jack and Kate sit alone in a tent and discuss Faraday's plan]
Kate: Before we got captured you said that we had to put things back the way they were meant to be. What did you mean by that?
Jack: If we can do what Faraday said our plane never crashes. Flight 815 lands in Los Angeles and everyone we lost since we got here, they'd all be alive.
Kate: And what about us? We just go on living our lives because we never met.
Jack: All the misery that we have been through would just wipe clean, like it never happened.
Kate: It was NOT all misery!
Jack: Enough of it was!

[Having been reunited with Hurley, Kate and Jack at the end of Namaste, Sawyer speaks to the trio for the first time in three years]
Hurley: [To Sawyer] You're alive! DUDE! I can't believe it!
[Hurley embraces Sawyer, lifting him off the ground in the process]
Sawyer: Ha, ha. Easy on the ribs there Kong.
Hurley: Kong...I actually missed that.
Sawyer: I missed you too Hugo.
[Jack moves in to shake Sawyer's hand]
Jack: Sawyer.
Sawyer: Doc.
[Kate approaches Sawyer and hugs him]
Sawyer: Hi. Good to see you, Kate.
Kate: You too, James.
[Sawyer looks at the group]
Sawyer: I can't believe it! You're really here. Son of a bitch actually did it. [John] Locke said he was gonna bring you back, but...[looks around] where is he?
Jack: [Bluntly] John's dead.
Sawyer: Dead? How?
Jack: Doesn't matter, he's gone.
Hurley: So what's up with you guys in the old Dharma jump suits?
[Sawyer turns to Jin]
Sawyer: You didn't tell them?
[Jin now speaks perfect English]
Jin: No. I was waiting for you.
Kate: Tell us what?
Sawyer: We're in the Dharma Initiative.
Jack: They came back to the Island?
Sawyer: No, we came back. And so did you. [Pause] It's Nineteen Seventy-seven...

[Having seen Sayid been arrested and locked up by Sawyer and Jin, Jack heads round to Sawyer's house to speak with him about the situation]
Sawyer: What can I do for you, Jack?
Jack: I don't even know where to start. Uh... How about with Sayid?
Sawyer: I had no choice. He was running around in the jungle, got caught by my people. And seein' as how he can't tell the truth about how he got here, I had to improvise.
Jack: Improvise?
Sawyer: Aha. And for now, Sayid is safe, which is all that matters.
Jack: So where do we go from here?
Sawyer: I'm working on it.
Jack: Really? Because it looked to me like you were reading a book.
[Sawyer smiles]
Sawyer: I heard once Winston Churchill read a book every night, even during the Blitz. He said it made him think better. It's how I like to run things. I think. I'm sure that doesn't mean that much to you, 'cause back when you were calling the shots, you pretty much just reacted. See, you didn't think, Jack, and as I recall, a lot of people ended up dead.
Jack: I got us off the island.
Sawyer: But here you are... Right back where you started. So I'm gonna go back to reading my book, and I'm gonna think 'cause that's how I saved your ass today. And that's how I'm gonna save Sayid's tomorrow. All you gotta do is go home, get a good night's rest. I do what I do
[He leads Jack to the door and opens it]
Sawyer: Now ain't that a relief?
Jack: Yeah.
[Jack leaves]

[Henry is eating cereal]
"Henry Gale": Course if I was one of them - these people that you seem to think are your enemies - what would I do? Well, there'd be no balloon. So I'd draw a map to a real secluded place, like a cave or some underbrush, good place for a trap. An ambush. And when your friends got there, a bunch of my people would be waiting for 'em. Then they'd use them to trade for me. [jokingly] I guess it's a good thing I'm not one of them huh?
[Jack and Locke stare at Henry]
"Henry Gale": You guys got any milk?

[Hurley and Jack are lead by Richard to what they believe will be the Temple]
Jack: [To Richard] Where did you come from?
Richard: You wouldn't believe me if I told you. Temples this way.
Hurley: So dude whats the deal? Are you time traveling? 'Cause you look exactly the same as you did 30 years ago.
Richard: I'm not time traveling. This was a gift from Jacob. Only...It's not a gift at all. Its a curse.
Hurley: So what you're like a Terminator?
[Richard looks at Hurley]
Richard: No.

[Hurley has just helped Richard make peace with his long deceased wife]
Hurley: She kinda said something else. Something you have to do.
Richard: What?
Hurley: She said you have to stop The Man in Black. You have to stop him from leaving the Island. And she said that if you don't... (speaking in Spanish) ...we'll all go to hell.

[Hurley has laid out a golf course.]
Hurley: Welcome to the first and... hopefully last Island Open! It's two holes, for now, three par, and no waiting!
Jack: Hurley, you built... a golf course?
Hurley: Rich idiots fly to tropical islands all the time to whack balls around!
Michael: [incredulous] All the stuff we gotta deal with, man... this is what you've been wasting your time on?"
Hurley: Dudes... listen. Our lives suck! Everyone's nerves are stretched to the max! We're lost on an island, running from boars and monsters... freakin' polar bears!
Michael: Polar bears?
Charlie: You didn't hear about the polar bear?

[Hurley is in a mental institution, about to take his medication]
Dave: Dude, if you wanna get out of here with me, don't take the horse tranquilizer.

[Hurley opens the box Ben hands to him and finds saltine crackers inside. He eats one.]
Ben: You know those are 15 years old?

[In 1977; Juliet and Sawyer are on the Dharma Sub, they are joined by Kate and the sub leaves the island heading to the mainland]
Kate: We have to get out of here.
Sawyer: Out of here? We're underwater. What the hell are you doing here? How'd you get caught?
Kate: I came back to get you.
Sawyer: Came back to get me for what?
Juliet: Where's Jack?
Kate: Jack is... on his way to blow up a hydrogen bomb.
Sawyer: Why the hell would he do that?
Kate: Does it matter? We have to stop him.
Sawyer: Sorry, I'm gonna pass.
Kate: Did you hear what I just said?
Sawyer: Yeah, I heard you. You just don't get it, Kate - we were happy in Dharmaville 'till you all showed up, and now that's all over...
[Juliet smiles at Sawyer]
Sawyer: So we're going to drink our OJ and take our chances in the real world. [Pause] And if Jack wants to blow up the island... good for Jack.

[In flashback to mid-late 2004, Faraday is being looked after by a carer in his flat while he is watching footage informing the public that the wreckage of Flight 815 has been found in the Sunda Trench]
On TV: These pictures come from a research vessel off the coast of Indonesia...
Faraday's Carer: How do want your eggs Dan?
[Dan is crying at the footage being shown on the TV]
Faraday's Carer: Dan whats the matter? Why are you so upset?
Faraday: I don't know...
[There is a knock at the door, Dan's carer goes to answer, Charles Widmore enters]
Faraday's Carer: Hello come in. Can I get you a cup of tea?
Charles Widmore: Thank you that would be nice.
Faraday's Carer: Dan you have a visitor.
[Faraday gets out of his chair and in a confused manner he shakes Widmore's hand]
Charles Widmore: Hello Daniel.
Faraday: [Almost in tears] Er...Hello. I'm sorry sir I don't remember...I have a condition that effects my memory and...
Charles Widmore: Don't be embarrased Daniel, weve never met. I'm Charles Widmore.
Faraday: Charles Widmore? Charles Widmore from my research grant?
Charles Widmore: Yes.
Faraday: Its nice to meet you at last, I kept meaning to come and see you but I got a bit...take a seat.
Charles Widmore: Thank you.
[They sit]
Faraday: I just want you to know that I tested it on myself first. I would never hurt Teresa.
Charles Widmore: It's alright Daniel I'm not here because of that. I want to offer you a new opportunity.
Faraday: Really?
Charles Widmore: Yes.
[Dan stares back at the footage of the wreckage of 815 on the TV and starts to cry]
Charles Widmore: Daniel. Whats making you so upset?
Faraday: It's this plane crash. All those poor people...and their families. They're dead!
Charles Widmore: What if I was to tell you Daniel that they're not dead. What if I told you that that plane they have found is an elaborate and expensive hoax.
Faraday: How would you know that?
Charles Widmore: I know Daniel because I'm the one that put it there.
Faraday: Why would you tell me that?
Charles Widmore: I told you Daniel because come tomorrow you're not likely to remember.
[The pair continue to discuss the crash and Widmore offers Dan the chance to go to the island on the frighter]

[In his Dharma Minivan, Sawyer drives Hurley, Jack and Kate to the Barracks]
Hurley: Ok. So, it's Nineteen Seventy-seven?
Sawyer: Yup.
Hurley: And you guys are all members of the Dharma Initiative?
Sawyer: Yup.
Hurley: Well, you do realise those dudes get wiped out right? I mean I saw the pit where all the bodies got dumped.
Sawyer: What about it?
Hurley: Well; aren't you gonna warn ‘em? Aren't you gonna stop it from happening?
Sawyer: I ain't here to play Nostradamus to these people. Besides, Faraday's got some interesting theories about what we can and can't do here.
[Jack leans into the conversation from the backseat]
Jack: Did you say Faraday? He's still here?
Sawyer: Not any more!

[In Korean]
Sun: Oh yes, I was trying to trap the son of a fisherman.

[In the Dharma security facility security guard Phil is on duty. A teenage boy enters the room and approachs Phil at his desk]
Young Ben: Hey Phil. I am just going to go in there and deliver him a sandwich.
Phil: Alright.
[The boy enters an adjacent room where Sayid is being held in a cell]
Young Ben: Hello. I brought you a sandwich.
[Sayid goes over to the cells railings and takes the paper bag containing the sandwich from young Ben]
Sayid: Thank you.
Young Ben: I didn't put any mustard on it, but if you want some, I can go and get some.
[Sayid looks in the paper bag and then back to the boy]
Sayid: This will be fine thank you.
Young Ben: Are you a Hostile?
Sayid: What do you think I am?
Young Ben: What's your name?
Sayid: My name is Sayid. What's yours?
Younger Ben: I'm Ben.
[Pause. It suddenly dawns on Sayid who the little boy infront of him is]
Sayid: It's nice to meet you Ben...

[In the North Valley, Sawyer retruns with clothes and instructions for Jack, Kate and Hurley. He gets out of the van]
Sawyer: Alright listen. Y'all gonna be the second batch of recruits coming in off the sub. It should be pulling into port right about now so we ain't got much time. [Looks at Jack] Nice suit, doc. Not exactly Island wear, try this.
[Sawyer throws Jack some 1977 style clothes including a shirt and a pair of trousers]
Jack: You want us to say we came in on the sub? How's that going to work?
Sawyer: Everyone gets knocked out before the trip, so no one meets each other until we process ‘em.
Jack: Look. We need to find the rest of people from the plane.
Sawyer: If there was a plane then Jin will find it. So we've got about ten minutes to make intake or you'll be camping in the jungle for a long time. There isn't another batch of recruits due in for six months.
[Jack turns to Kate]
Jack: Whaddya think?
Kate: I think we should listen to Sawyer.
Hurley: I vote for not camping too.
Sawyer: Trust me doc. You'll do what I say then everything will be fine.
[Brief pause. Jack nods in agreement]
Sawyer: Ok then. Let's move.
[Sawyer followed by the other three get into the Dharma Minivan]
