Lost (2004–2010): Season 2, Episode 11 - The Hunting Party - full transcript

Previously on Lost:

- We're taking the boy.
- I'm not giving you anybody.

Dad.

Walt.

- Where is she?
- You mean Kate?

I love her.

Kate.

Look here and here.

You can see it's eroding
into the spinal artery in the L5 area.

Plus all this extradural growth.

I'm surprised it hasn't caused
permanent ischemia.



He says
you don't need to talk in whispers.

He knows
he doesn't have a chance.

- Your father appreciates candour?
- We both do.

Then tell him I'm very sorry,

but he's not a candidate for surgery.

The way the tumour is situated on the
spine, it's not possible to remove it.

He wants to know why you won't try.

Because what your father is looking for
is not a surgical procedure.

What he is looking for is a miracle.

He said, "I did not come
all this way for you, sir."

"I came for him."

Ms Busoni...

You fixed a woman
with a crushed spinal column.

An impossible surgery.
And now she walks, yes?



I consulted many medical journals
before making this trip.

Then you know it was a very different
case under different circumstances.

But a miracle, right?

Everything that my father's saying,
the risks, the unlikelihood,

he's absolutely right.

But will you try?

I'll have to admit him
in the next couple of weeks,

run some tests.

Locke?

John.

Stay in there.

- Michael.
- Stay in there, Jack.

- Whatever's going on...
- I'm going after my son.

And nobody is going to stop me.

That is my right.
That is a father's right.

There's another way...
You going to shoot me?

No. But I'll shoot your damn computer.

That thing is not what you think it is.

You don't understand, man.
You don't have any idea.

- Now get in there.
- We can do this together.

- I'll come with you.
- No. I have to do it. Now.

And I have to do it alone.

- What happened?
- Michael knocked you out.

- Look over here.
- Why would he...?

He went after Walt.

You feeling nauseated, sick?

- No. I'm OK.
- Good.

Give me a boost up.

It's no use.
I bolted it shut from the inside.

You what?

No point changing the combination
if you can get in through the air vent.

That's really good thinking.

Wanna tell me
why you let Michael in here?

He wanted a gun. For shooting practice.

Shooting practice.

The button.

- How long was I out?
- About 20 minutes.

We're on shift for the next four hours.
Nobody's coming down here.

Better hope Sawyer shows up
to get his Band-Aid changed.

Morning.

- You just throw a banana at me?
- Couldn't find any rocks.

There are nicer ways
to wake a man up, Freckles.

It's time to get your bandages changed.

- Why can't you do it for me?
- Because I'm not your nurse.

And Jack's got the bandages.

Of course he does.

Wanna give me a hand?

Thanks.

Come on.

- This place still creeps me out.
- You'll get used to it.

Where is everybody?

Jack? John?

- Maybe they went out for ice cream.
- In here.

Jack?

In here. In the armoury.
Michael locked us in here.

- What'd he say?
- I got it.

Hope you got the combo, Doc.

Right three times to 25.

- 25, got it.
- Left two times to 29.

Right once to 40.

- Howdy, boys.
- What are you doing?

We're going after him.

What happened?

Michael went after Walt.

Went after Walt?

Held a gun on me, put us both in there,
and went after Walt.

- What're you doing?
- What does it look like?

- I'm coming with you.
- You're still on antibiotics.

It's a good thing
I'm travelling with my doctor, then.

How is he?

- I thought you'd gone home.
- My home is a hotel room.

I like it more here.

I think you need to find a better hotel.

You didn't answer my question.

His counts aren't
where I'd like them to be.

You've been doing tests for a month now.

I'm thorough.

I have a confession to make.

I don't believe in miracles.

Guess I'm not too sure
about them, either.

I bet your wife feels differently.

Your wife, she is the woman
you fixed, isn't she?

Yes.

I'm thorough, too.

She must be very special to let you work
until 4:30 in the morning.

Completely lost track...

- I gotta... Will you excuse me?
- Of course. Go.

And, Jack, thank you.

Of course.

Good night.

Hey.

How is he?

Hey. Sorry to wake you.

I gotta get up anyway.

So, how is he?

About the same.

Sarah, I'm sorry. I meant to...

It just got...

That's the price
of being a miracle worker.

- Where you going?
- I gotta go to the gym.

Then I got some papers to grade.

I didn't wanna say anything
until I knew either way, but...

I was late, so I got a pregnancy test.

Don't worry. It was negative.

Do you wanna talk about it?

What's to talk about?

Sarah, I...

See you later, Jack.

Well?

I can't say it's definitely Michael's,
but it looks like his boot print.

There's one over here, too.

That sounds like a trail.

- You got a gun for me?
- You're not coming.

Excuse me?

Someone has to take care of the button.

So, why should that person be me?

You're not coming. You're staying.

All right?

Let's go.

- What'd she do to you?
- What?

Kate. What'd she do?

- She didn't do anything.
- Right.

Yelling at her because she wanted
to help get Mike makes a lot of sense.

Why don't you go back
and see if I hurt her feelings?

- I'm just saying.
- Yeah, I know.

- You love her.
- What'd you say?

What?

Any of this look familiar
from when you were coming back?

Yeah. There's my favourite leaf.
How could I forget this place?

What's wrong?

When you came across the island,
what side was the ocean on?

You came from the east.
Michael's heading north.

What the hell's that supposed to mean?

He's not going back
to where you came from.

He's heading somewhere else.

- Hello, Hurley.
- Hey.

Cool hat, dude.

- Is Kate all right?
- Yeah.

I guess Michael took off.

What do you mean?

He stole some guns
and he went all commando.

Said he was going after Walt.

Later, dudes. Gotta get to the hatch.

Doc, you wanna slow down?

Take a break a minute?

Good idea.

He still heading north?

Yep.

- You think he's lost?
- Doesn't seem to be.

Trail's as straight as the interstate.

The path of a man
who knows where he's going.

Where are you going, Jack?

What?

Let's say we catch up with him.

- What are you gonna do?
- I'm gonna bring him back.

- What if he doesn't wanna come back?
- I'll talk him into coming back.

This is the second time
he's gone after Walt.

He knocked me out.
He locked us both up.

Something tells me
he might be past listening to reason.

You think we should just let him go?
Write him off?

Who are we to tell anyone
what they can or can't do?

It's not too late to go back.

The tumour's aggressive,

but your father could lead
a normal life for another year.

Go back where?

Home?

- Have you changed your mind?
- No.

Is that it?

Even if you don't succeed,
you're giving us a chance.

That's all we wanted.

I'll come out and check on you
before I scrub in.

OK.

Am I interrupting?

No, I was just leaving.

I'll see you in the morning.

I'll see you in the morning.

ITR reports need to be signed
by you as chief resident.

What?

Careful.

There's a line, Son.
You know it's there.

Pretending it's not would be a mistake.

Guess you would know.

It may be OK for some people,
but not for you.

You sure Mike went this way?

- Why do you ask?
- I don't know, Mr Clean.

I probably would have gone
around Mount Vesuvius.

Why'd you pick that name?

Ain't it obvious?

All you need's an earring and a mop.

No. Your name. Why'd you pick Sawyer?

Pick?

After the census,
Hurley gave me the flight manifest.

Your name is James, right? James Ford.

What's it to you?

Just an interesting name to choose.

Who'd you get it from?

Who says I got it from anybody?

- Michael.
- Jack, get down.

- Michael!
- Jack!

Michael!

- Michael?
- Jack!

What?

- He's close.
- He was shooting at someone.

- You want them coming back?
- Personally, hell, yeah.

You said these people
were two days away.

They took Cindy
less than a mile from our camp.

Over here.

- Shell casings. How many?
- Three. Michael's.

You boys deaf?
I heard at least seven shots.

You heard them, Daniel Boone.
What's your count?

Seven sounds about right.

It's getting dark.
Which way did Mike go?

What?

You out here for Michael,

or just payback for getting shot?

Why are you out here, Doc?

You got your reasons, and I got mine.

Jack.

Jack!

- I had it.
- I know, Son.

I got it all. I had it.

He was a sick old man on a table
for seven and a half hours.

His heart gave out. It's nobody's fault.

I've got to go tell her.

I've already done that.

Lest you forget,
I am still chief of surgery.

Where is she?

- Maybe you should go home.
- Where is she?

She's gone.

Jack.

Go home.

Jack.

Gabriela.

My father told me that you'd gone. I...

I...

Thank you for trying.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry that I couldn't...

- Wait...
- It's OK.

I can't.

What do you mean, you lost it?

He's a man, not a boar.
His sign's more subtle.

- I need light to follow him.
- Here. Light.

- We'd better head back.
- What?

- Find the trail.
- I've lost it.

You don't just lose a trail.
You just don't want to find him.

I've been running through the jungle
toward the sound of gunfire

because I don't care about Michael.

- Don't turn around on me.
- You won't get him to come back.

If we just turn around and go back,
we're never gonna see him again.

And that's gonna be on us.
On you and on me.

You're exactly right.

But if I were you,
I'd listen to Mr Locke.

Who are you?

He's the son of a bitch
that shot me on the raft.

Why don't you point the gun down?

Probably be best if we just keep
our hands at our sides, gentlemen.

- Where's Michael?
- Don't worry about Michael.

He's not gonna find us.

- What do you want?
- Why don't you build us a fire?

I think it's time we all had a talk.

Geronimo Jackson?

As an expert in all things musical,
I never heard of these guys.

Shocking as that may be.
Geronimo Jackson?

This looks sweet. Let's give her a rip.

So, what do you think is the story
with that Libby chick?

- The story?
- She's kind of cute, right?

In a "I've been terrorized by the Others
for 40 days" kind of way.

There is that.

I think I have a chance with her.

It's the classic desert-island scenario.

If I ever had a shot, this is it.

You think Claire's missed me yet?

Dude, it's been a day.

- This music is quite depressing.
- We can change it, dude.

You ever hear of Geronimo Jackson?

I'm afraid not. Where is Jack and Locke?

They went after Michael.

- Michael?
- He's run after Walt again.

- Everyone's gone to bring him back.
- Who's everyone?

Everyone. Jack, Sawyer, Locke.
And Kate.

Just sit down, Jack.
Nobody's gonna hurt you.

I come in peace.

How do you know our names?

You took Walt.

Walt's fine. He's a very special boy.

You said you wanted to talk. Talk.

How long you been here on the island?

Fifty days.

Fifty days?
That's almost two whole months.

Tell me, you go over a man's house
for the first time,

do you take off your shoes,

put your feet up on his coffee table,

walk in the kitchen,
eat food that doesn't belong to you,

open the door to rooms
you got no business opening?

Somebody a whole lot smarter
than anybody here once said,

"Since the dawn of our species,

man has been blessed with curiosity."

You know the other one
about curiosity, don't you?

This is not your island.

This is our island.

The only reason you're living on it

is because we let you live on it.

I don't believe you.

- You don't believe what?
- I think you got one guy 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.

Light them up.

We got a misunderstanding.
Your people, my people.

So, listen carefully.
Right here, there's a line.

You cross that line,

we go from misunderstanding
to something else.

Give me your weapons,
turn around, and go home.

No.

- Jack, maybe...
- No!

I hoped it wouldn't come to this.

Bring her out, Alex.

She was following you.

Like I said, curiosity.

Don't.

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,

and you could've saved her life
by giving up and going home?

Or are you gonna give me your guns,
turn around, and walk away?

It's your call.

- If you touched a hair on her head...
- Shut up.

I'm going to count to three.

One.

Two.

Stop.

Now them.

Give me the other one, too.

You and me ain't done, Zeke.

Jack...

You all right?

Yeah.

I was just trying to help, Jack.

When you told me not to go, I just...

I made a mistake.

Could you just talk to me for a second?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, too.

- Hey.
- Hey. How did it go?

He died.

- I'm sorry.
- Me, too.

- Who was over?
- My mom.

- The bridge game OK?
- Oh yeah. She's on a streak.

- Did you eat?
- Yeah. No.

It's late. I'm fine.

- You don't have to do that.
- It's therapeutic.

Cheaper than a shrink.

How did the daughter take it?

What's her name, Gabriela?

She kissed me.

She kissed me and I kissed her back.

I don't know how it happened.

I made a mistake, and this is my fault.

It's my fault that you and me...

I haven't been here, Sarah.

We don't even talk anymore.

I hate what's happening to us.

I promise you that things
are gonna be different.

I'm gonna work less.
I'm gonna be here for you.

I'm gonna fix this. We're gonna go
back to the way things were.

Jack?

I'm leaving you.

What?

I was already leaving you.
My mother was helping me pack.

I've been seeing someone.

Someone else.

I have to... I can't stay.

You will always need something to fix.

Goodbye.

See you, James.

Don't beat yourself up, Freckles.

If he'd told me to stay,
I'd have done the same thing.

What's the matter
with the little squirt?

Who's that?

You don't like old Uncle Johnny?

What is he doing to your toe?

Go away. I barely have enough food
to feed myself.

Here.

I see you found a new friend.

Progress.

I hear you were out looking for Michael.

Yeah.

He ran off looking for his kid again?

Not much you can do about that, then.

Is it true that you killed one of them?

One of who?

Them.

Sayid tells me that you're a cop.

I was a cop.

Can I ask you something?

Shoot.

How long would it take to train an army?
