Lost (2004–2010): Season 2, Episode 12 - Fire + Water - full transcript

When Charlie's vividly surreal dreams lead him to believe Claire's baby, Aaron, is in danger, Locke suspects Charlie may be using drugs again. More of Charlie's background story shows his difficult relationship with his heroin addicted brother. Meanwhile, Sawyer encourages Hurley to act on his attraction to Libby.

Previously on Lost:

The plane was loaded with heroin.

- He said he found it in the jungle.
- Where?

- It's just a statue.
- Just a statue?

Where is Charlie?

What's this?
Because this was in your little statue.

I didn't know.

If it's sealed up inside a statue,
how would I know?

- You lied to me.
- I'm sorry.

- I can't have you around my baby.
- Claire...

I don't want you
sleeping anywhere near us.



Voltron.

Where are my presents?

Right over here, Charlie.

It's a piano.

- This is mine?
- Yes.

Father Christmas
must've known how talented you are.

You're special, love.

Someday you're gonna get us out of here.
All of us.

Now...

Go on. Play us a tune.

Come on, baby brother.

You can't save your family
if you don't play.

Come on, play.

Play me a tune.
Come on, now, let's hear it.



He ain't saving no one.

Music will never get you anywhere,
Charlie boy.

- You need a trade.
- Dad?

Do it, baby bro. Save us.

Save us, Charlie. Save us.

Aaron?

It's OK. It's all right.

Sun. Have you seen Claire and the baby?
They've gone.

- They're right over there.
- Is Aaron OK?

Yes, he's fine. Charlie, he's...

It's OK.

Hey.

I made Aaron some nappies this morning.

I'll just put those there.

Thanks.

Has he been asking about me?

Charlie, don't.

I'm sorry.

I should have told you about the statue,

and what was in it.

I just wish things could get back
to the way they were before.

There is no "before. "

We were strangers on a plane
and became friends.

Now Locke's your friend, huh?

Please, Charlie.

Just for now, give me some space, OK?

Space.

See you, mate. Take care of your mum.

- Charlie?
- Hey.

What are you doing up?
You should be lying down.

I just needed to see her again.
Isn't she brilliant?

She's beautiful, Karen.

I named her Megan.

Where's Liam?

- He's not here.
- It wasn't his fault.

We were leaving Dresden. I was in a cab.
He was in a van with the gear.

It blew a tyre
on the way to the airport.

He missed his flight.
But he's on the next plane.

- He'll be here soon.
- But he's OK?

He's great. He's a dad.

For the... Liam.

Unbelievable.

Liam?

Wake up. Oi!

What the hell's wrong with you?
What the hell are you doing?

- Baby brother.
- You're supposed to be cleaning up.

Get up.
I told Karen you missed your flight.

She's alone at the hospital
and you're here fixing.

I'm cool.
I just needed to get right, that's all.

Don't worry. I left you some.

Get right? Why don't you get up?

Take a shower, get dressed,
get to the hospital?

All right. I'm on it.

By the way, you have a daughter.

Her name's Megan.

After Mum?

After Mum.

Now clean yourself up.
You're a sodding father now.

Easy. That's good. That was good.

- One more.
- Sawyer.

When you were over there
across the island,

how well did you get to know
those Tailies?

- Well enough. Why?
- That Libby chick seems pretty cool.

I mean, is she?

You got a little love connection
brewing over there, Jabba?

- No. I'm just asking.
- I hear you asking.

Forget it.

What's with you? You're acting
like you're in junior high.

What do we have here?
Ana Lucia's getting the $20 tour.

That's the third time I've seen them
walking out of the jungle.

What do you suppose they're doing?

You just do your exercises.

Bloody hell.

The baby.

Help.

The baby.

Aaron.

I'm coming. It's OK.

Just hang on.

I got you. It's all right. It's OK.

You're OK now. You're safe.

It's OK.

Mum?

Claire?

- He's in danger. You have to save him.
- You have to save the baby.

Only you can save him.

- What are you doing?
- What?

What are you doing, man?

- What's going on?
- What are you doing with the baby?

I don't know.

Help. Somebody took my baby.
Aaron's gone.

It's OK. We're over here.

Is he all right?

I don't know what happened. I'm sorry.

He's OK, though. I had this dream...

Stick? I don't know, dude.
Don't I need 21? I think I should hit.

- But I got a six. I'm gonna bust.
- How do you know that?

I don't. But you gotta assume
that I'm gonna bust.

Why?

Well, well,
look who's off to the Laundromat.

Go on.

I'm sure you've got a load
you need to drop in, Jethro.

I'm kind of waiting for my moment.

Well...

Your moment is now, Hoss.

Hey, Libby.

Hey, yourself.

Hey, John. Talk to you for a second?

What is it?

I take it you heard about
what happened last night?

You taking the baby out of Claire's tent
in the middle of the night?

- I heard.
- It was a big misunderstanding.

I was sleepwalking.
I don't know how or why.

Is there something you want from me?

I was hoping
you could speak to Claire for me.

Put in a good word.

Are you using?

- What?
- Heroin. Are you using again?

Kate sees a horse, nothing.

Pretty much everybody's seen Walt
in the jungle.

When it's Charlie, it must be the drugs.

It's funny,
you didn't answer the question.

You remember the plane?

We burned it. Eko and me.
We burned the whole thing.

The heroin, the statues.
It's all gone, destroyed.

- All of them?
- All of them.

Trust is a hard thing to win back.

Claire needs time.

You should leave her
and the baby alone for a while.

Can you do this? You look green.

Sod off. I'm fine.

Let's give this another go, shall we?

Get it together.
Lest you forget, we need this.

Tea.

- So, you lads ready?
- We're ready. Let's go.

- Let's try not to blow it this time.
- You good?

We've only 20 minutes
till we're in overtime. Get it right.

All right.

- Camera. Rotate on the eight count.
- Rolling.

Hold the product up.

- Butties diapers, take 53.
- Playback.

- Mark it.
- And action.

You all, every butties

You all, every butties

- Acting like...
- Cut.

- It's all right.
- That's it. We're wrapped.

No. Mate. Hang on. Wait.

- What are you doing?
- Let's not waste any more time.

You were only hired as a favour
to your lawyer. I wanted Dirt Spigot.

Come on, mate. Give us another chance.

You want another chance?
Take my advice.

Ditch that one. He's a bloody disaster.

I'm not ditching anyone.
He's my brother.

Right. Well, then, I guess you're fired.

Is this washer and dryer
newer than everything else in here?

It washes clothes.
That's all I need to know.

Finally. Someone who keeps it simple.

Look at this.

I got it in some of
the abandoned luggage.

You think I can pull this off?

Let me give you a hint.

When a girl asks that kind of question,
she's looking for validation.

Do I know you from somewhere?

You mean other than the flight?

- The flight...
- Turn around.

Turn around. I'm gonna try it on.

- Sure, go ahead.
- No peeking.

I cannot believe you don't remember
stepping on my foot.

- I did?
- Yes, you did. And it was hard.

I remember you were
the last one on the flight,

and you were all sweaty
and you had headphones on

and crunch, you stepped on my foot.

Turn around.

- What do you think?
- It's awesome.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

I'm marking trees.

Why?

Because these are the ones I like.

Did you tell Locke
you gave me a statue from the plane?

Why would I do that?

He knows, man.
That bald wanker knows something.

Is something wrong?

Apart from me losing my mind?
No. Everything's peachy.

Why would you say
you are losing your mind?

How about the fact
that I've been sleepwalking?

Stealing babies from their cribs?

And the vivid dreams
that make me feel like I'm awake

until, of course, I wake up.

What are your dreams about?

Variations of Aaron
being in mortal peril.

Trapped in a piano.

Drifting out to sea.

There's the flying dove, and Claire
and my mum dressed as angels

telling me I need to save the baby.

What?

Have you ever considered
that these dreams mean something?

Like what?

What if you do need to save the baby?

- I have to talk to her.
- Now's not a good time.

- She'll wanna hear this.
- Tell me and I will tell her.

- Not now.
- Please. Aaron's in danger.

- What?
- The baby's in danger.

I've been having these dreams.
I know what they mean now.

We have to baptise Aaron.

- What?
- We can do this. Eko's a priest.

- It's time to go.
- Wait. We have to baptise Aaron.

He's in danger. We've got to do this.

Here. For when it rains.

Thanks.

When are you gonna tell me
what happened in the jungle?

I already did.
Pull it tighter, or it'll sag.

You told me what that guy said.

You didn't tell me
what made you turn around.

What made you come back.

He had a gun at Kate's head.

You hitting that?

- What?
- Plane crash. You both survived.

Nice beach. She's hot, you're hot.

That's what people do.

I'm not "hitting that. "

Hey.

Karen kicked me out, man.

What?

What happened?

She thinks I'm dangerous.

Why would she think that?

Because I dropped her. I dropped Megan.

Liam, it's all right.

We've got no money. We've got nothing.

- What are we gonna do?
- We'll get through this.

Yeah? How's that?

I'm writing again.

I got a new song.
It's about two brothers.

- Who should've been butchers.
- Don't say that. This is a good one.

I feel like this might be the one.
Listen to this.

Nice, man.

- This could work.
- It's good, right?

We could make it work.
Write all night, just like the old days.

So, baby brother,

you got any?

I'm disappointed in you.

- You followed me?
- How long you been coming out here?

You've got the wrong idea, man.

You said you destroyed them
and yet here they are.

I came to finish the job,
to get rid of these.

Very convenient,
now that I've found them.

What are you doing?

There was a time when I let you choose

whether or not
you were gonna do this to yourself.

- Now I'm making that choice for you.
- You don't believe me?

Give them to me right now.
I'll destroy them.

I'll throw them in the sodding wind.

I know I lied. Just wait.

Remember all those talks we had?
You and me?

You said
everything happens for a reason.

This island tests us.

That's what this is. This is my test.
That's why these are here.

These are here
because you put them here.

Wait.

What are you gonna do?
Are you gonna tell Claire?

You can't. If she sees them, I'm done.

She'll never trust me again,
and she has to.

It's about the baby.
Aaron's in danger.

You have to believe me.

You've given up the right
to be believed.

Hey.

Hi.

- How's our boy?
- He's good.

- Can I ask you something?
- Sure.

Do you think Aaron and I

could stay in the bedroom
in the hatch for a while?

Alarm goes off every hour and a half.

It's not the best place for a baby
to sleep through the night.

Yeah, sure.

How about if I move my stuff down here,
set up right next to your tent?

That'd be great. Thanks.

Then consider it done.

You don't know anything
about baptism, do you?

Not a whole lot. Why?

Charlie came by my tent before.

He told me Aaron had to be baptised.

That he was in danger.

My understanding is baptism is about
making sure children get into heaven,

should anything happen.

Call it spiritual insurance.

There isn't any danger. Charlie just...

Charlie just feels
like he has to save the baby

because he can't save himself.

- I'll see you tonight.
- OK.

Charlie, can you give us a hand?

Now's not a good time, Sayid.

Let's lift this.

I got it.

- Fire.
- Where?

Grab tools, containers for sand,
anything you have.

If we don't stop it now,
it'll burn right through the camp.

Stay here with Aaron.

We need to cut a fire break right here.
Form a bucket line.

Some of you people, down to the water.

Sawyer.

You're heading them off. Right here.

Liam?

My piano.

What's going on?

Where's my piano?

I sold it.

You what?

- Wait.
- Get off me.

Where's the money?
Is it up your sodding arm?

I'm clean. I haven't used in two days.

Two days? Happy anniversary.

- How long you been clean?
- Where's the money?

She was gonna leave me.
She was gonna take Megan.

- What did you do?
- Karen's got an uncle in Australia.

He's gonna get me a job.
There's a rehab clinic in Sydney.

I just needed the money to get us there.

I have to do this.

I have to take care of myself,
for them, for my family.

I'm your family.

Wait. Will you just wait?

- I can't.
- What about the band?

What about the song?

Try to understand. I have to go.

I have to.

I'll give you a call
when things settle down for me.

For you? What about me?
What about my family?

What about my family?

- What are you doing?
- I'm doing what I have to do.

- He's got my baby. Stop it.
- It's all right. It's not...

Help! Help!

Somebody, help! He's got my baby!

Come on, please. Stop.

I just want to save him.

- Charlie!
- It's all right.

Give me the baby.

Eko, tell them.
Tell them what you told me.

That the baby has to be baptised.

This is not the way.

Give him to me.

Who the hell are you?
Aaron's not your responsibility.

Where were you when he was born?
When he was taken?

You're not his father.
You're not his family.

Neither are you.

I have to do this. I need to.

I'm not gonna hurt him.

You're hurting me.

I'm sorry.

You need stitches.

Try to be still.

I started the fire.

Yeah, I know.

I was desperate.

I need to know you're never gonna
do anything like this again. Ever.

I know what this looks like,
what people think.

It doesn't matter now, but I didn't use.

I wanted to.

I really wanted to.

But I didn't.

That's not what I asked.

It's not gonna happen again.

Charlie told me you're a priest.

He said you told him
that I had to have...

I did not tell Charlie
to do what he did.

I'm sorry if he misunderstood me.

But do you think
the baby has to be baptised?

Do you know what baptism is?

It's what gets you into heaven.

It is said that when
John the Baptist baptised Jesus,

the skies opened up
and a dove flew down from the sky.

This told John something,

that he had cleansed this man
of all his sins,

that he had freed him.

Heaven came much later.

I haven't been baptised.

Does that mean if you do it to Aaron
and something happened to us,

that we wouldn't be together?

Not if I baptise you both.
