Lost (2004–2010): Season 2, Episode 2 - Adrift - full transcript

Michael and Sawyer fight for their lives on the high seas and discover a new threat. Locke descends into the hatch to find a missing Kate.

Previously on Lost:

- Good luck.
- Same to you.

- We have to fire the flare.
- It doesn't make...

Look, are you gonna give me the damn
gun, or am I gonna have to take it?

Please, God!

It's coming back! It's coming back!

- We're gonna have to take the boy.
- What? What did you say?

The boy. We're gonna have to take him.

Hey! Hey! What...

Dad!

Dad! Help me!



- Walt!
- Help me, Dad!

No, no, no...

Stop it! Stop it! We can't!

Locke found a... a hatch in the ground.

The sun comes up in three hours
and we're all gonna see that happen.

We're gonna stay here tonight, OK?
Together.

- John, what are you doing?
- I'm going in.

Locke's going into that thing,
whether you like it or not.

I'm going to the hatch.

- Live together, die alone, right?
- Right.

John!
I think there's something down here!

Dad, please! Dad!

Walt!

Oh, no!



Walt! Walt!

- Walt!
- Mike!

Sawyer!

- Jin!
- Michael! On fire!

- Michael!
- Walt!

Mike!

Walt! Walt!

Hang on, Mike!

Hang on, Mike!

- Hang on!
- Walt!

Mike.

Mike.

Mike! Mike!

Kate!

Mike!

- Where's Walt?
- I don't know.

- Where is he?
- I don't know!

Where the hell is my son?

Walt!

How'd you hurt your leg?

- Got hit by a car.
- Ow.

Yeah.

So, this is the paperwork
your ex-wife sent over...

She's not my ex-wife, man.
She's just Walt's mother.

She... Susan, she just got a job
in Rome with her boyfriend.

They want to take Walt with them.

Don't worry, I'm gonna take
real good care of you, Mr Dylan.

Dawson.

Right. Sorry. Dawson.

So this boyfriend,
this is this guy Brian Porter?

Yeah. Why? What's it say?

It seems that Susan wants you to
relinquish your rights as Walt's father

- so that Mr Porter can adopt him.
- She wants me to sign my son away?

It's the only way they can proceed
with the adoption, yeah.

Listen, if you sign this document,

legally he'll be no different than
any other kid you pass on the street.

You'd be giving up your paternal rights.
All of them.

So then, can I stop her from going?

Well,
I guess we could file an injunction

- so she couldn't leave the city, but...
- Yeah, that. That. I want to do that.

Right.

Mr Dawson,

the fact that you came in through
these doors tells me something.

It tells me that I'm the best
that you can afford.

If we go forward with this,
it's gonna take money.

A lot of it. Even at my rates.

This is David and Goliath,
so I gotta ask you,

are you sure you wanna do this?

They're not taking my son away.

Walt!

- Mike! You should save your energy.
- They took my son!

Yeah, I saw. Onto a boat, which means
he's not in shouting distance!

- You don't know that!
- I got a good sense.

Even if he was,
there's nothing you can do.

If he can hear me, he knows I'm alive,

that I'm coming for him,
that I'm going to get him back!

Right now, all I got is that
maybe my son can hear me...

- Does that make any sense to you?
- Yeah.

Walt!

Kate!

Kate.

- John?
- Easy, easy, easy.

Behind you.

Are you him?

Are you him?

Jin!

Jin!

I thought we had to save our energy.

Yeah, well,
Jin's still out there in the water,

so if it's OK by you
I'm gonna keep shoutin' awhile.

- Feeling guilty.
- What?

You made me fire that flare.

I made you fire...

What, this is my fault?

They took my son.

They found us, took Walt,
because you made me fire the flare.

Well, at least Walt is on a boat.
Probably wrapped in a blanket

- with a cup of cocoa while we're on...
- Get off my raft.

- What?
- Get...

What the hell was that?

I see you managed to hold on
to your best friend, there.

Thing ain't gonna work anyway.

- It'll work.
- You were underwater.

What do you know about guns anyway,
Hoss? It'll work.

If the bullets are dry,
the powder's dry. If the powder's...

What the hell is that?

It's a shark.

It's only a shark.

"It's only a shark"? That's supposed
to make me feel better?

Well, I guess I know why the shark
is hanging around. Your shoulder.

Oh, well, I'll just stop bleeding then.

You suddenly forget what happened?
Why I got shot?

- What?
- How about a little gratitude here?

I mean, how about "Thank you"?

Thank you? For what?
For you trying to save your own ass?

You want me off this raft? You got it!

I was trying to save your damn kid.

Let's talk about Walt, shall we,
Mr Dawson?

Sure. OK.

When was the last time
you actually saw your son?

- About a year ago.
- It was fourteen months, actually.

- Is that a question, Lizzy?
- Why is that, Mr Dawson?

- Why so long?
- Susan took him to Amsterdam. For work.

- You didn't have a problem with that?
- Excuse me?

Well, since she's now going to Rome
and you're filing an injunction,

- it just seems a little inconsistent.
- Incon... No.

- No, no, no, no, no...
- Don't...

She took him, though.
I didn't want her to go.

- You said there was nothing I could do.
- And you didn't, did you?

- He's not gonna answer that.
- Because there is no answer.

You were in an accident recently?

Yeah.

You had several surgeries,
spent weeks in a private hospital room,

extensive rehabilitation.

- Who paid for all that, Mr Dawson?
- I didn't ask you for anything.

Could the record reflect Mr Dawson
acknowledged Miss Lloyd paid his bills?

Susan, tell them
that I didn't ask you...

Please don't address my client directly.

Do you know what Walt's
first words were, Mr Dawson?

- I'm sorry, what?
- His first words.

Do you know what they were?

I...

No. I... I wasn't there.

Do you know what his favourite food is?

- Do you...
- No.

OK. This is unnecessary...

No.

Well, for someone who wants
to retain his paternal rights so badly,

you don't seem to know much
about your son, Mr Dawson.

I'm his father.

I'm sorry, could you say that louder,
please? Just for the record?

I'm his father.

Are you crazy? You gonna take
the bullet outwith your bare hands?

You got a better idea?

Then go to hell.

Never gonna be able to do it
by yourself.

- I thought we parted ways.
- We're caught in the same current.

He's still talking.

Come on...

You got a Band-Aid?

Are you? Are you him?

Yes.

Yes, I am.

I can't believe it. You're finally here.

Well, here I am.

Who's she?

She's with me.

What did one snowman
say to the other snowman?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Get rid of the knife. You're not him!

- We didn't come here to hurt you.
- Yeah? Then why did you come?

We were in a plane crash.

Were you now? And when was that?

44 days ago.

44 days?

Move.

- How long have you been down here?
- Shut it.

Tie him up.

Do it!

Wait, wait, you're tying up
the wrong person.

- How's that, brother?
- It's pointless to tie me up,

I'm not dangerous.
But her? She's a fugitive.

What does that make you, then, brother?

I'm a regional collections manager
for a cardboard manufacturer.

Boxes, primarily.

All right then, Box Man. Tie her up.

- Don't you dare touch...
- Hey!

You be a good girl, right?

- What do you think you're doing?
- What's best for all of us.

Right, bring her here.

Hey, John...

- Hey, wait! Hey!
- Shut it.

Wait!

You're kiddin', right?
You're going back?

- Yeah.
- What about all that stuff you said

about waiting until morning
and watching the sun rise?

I changed my mind.

What do you suppose all that's about?

I reckon Jack's
going to do something heroic.

What?

You always try to be funny when
you don't want to answer a question.

"Try" to be funny?

What's this?

- I found it in the jungle.
- You found it?

Yeah. Be careful...

Be careful with it.
Here, hey, take Aaron.

Come here. There you go.

You gotta be careful with it, you know,
it's the Virgin Mary. She's holy.

I didn't realise you were so religious.

I'm not. It's just, you know,
it might come in handy.

Be a nice thing to have around.

It wasn't the flare.

I said it wasn't the flare.

Those people that did this...

At first I thought they were fishermen
or pirates or something.

Then I got a good look at their boat.

You know anything about boats, Mike?

Boat like that wasn't built
for the open ocean.

Water's coming over the side
the first little squall.

Maybe got a range of a hundred miles.

Nope. A boat like that had to have
left port from somewhere close.

Like the island.

French chick said the Others
were coming for the kid.

I think they came, Mike.

- What?
- He's the one they wanted,

why I got a bullet in my shoulder.

Hell, Bluebeard blew us up
because they wanted your kid.

- You saying this is my fault?
- Yeah. That's what I'm sayin'.

They took him because of you.
They were sailing away!

They found us because
they were looking for us! For Walt!

- Don't ever say his name again, ever!
- What you gonna do? Splash me?

- Look. I know...
- Shut up!

Don't even...

You have no idea what it's like
to care for somebody else.

Hi.

- Where are your lawyers?
- I told them I wanted to talk.

Just you and me.

- But if you want yours, I understand.
- No. It's OK.

I think you're gonna win.

Excuse me?

In court. I think you're going to keep
me from leaving the country with Walt.

But I just have to ask you why.

- Why what?
- Why are you doing this?

- He's my son.
- Since when, Michael?

Look, I know you don't care
about what's best for me,

but in Rome
I'll be a senior partner at the firm.

I'll be able to give Walt
anything he needs.

You're still on disability, Michael.
You can't work.

You're about to be evicted.

- Got your lawyers checking up on me?
- Of course I did.

Just like you had your lawyers check up
on me. Nobody's winning.

Then stop.

Michael, the first thing you need to do
is take care of yourself.

You need to get healthy, you need to get
back on your feet financially

so you can get back
to pursuing your art.

You have rare talent as an artist,
Michael.

But how are you going to do that,
any of that,

and still be a part of Walt's life?

I'll do it by doing it.

Walt is my responsibility too.

Then let him go.

Because it's not about you or me.
It's about him.

I don't want to go to court, Michael.

So please, just...

let him go.

The pilot said
we had lost radio contact,

but by then we were already
a thousand miles off course.

Any search teams
would've given up weeks ago.

So you were travelling
from Sydney to Los Angeles?

Yes.

So the world is still out there?

Yeah, as far as I know.

Could you tell me your name?

My name?

My name is Desmond.

Desmond, I'm John.

You should know
the gun is really unnecessary.

Oh yeah? So I should just hand it
over to you then, should I?

How many of you are there?

43. But four sailed out
this morning on a raft.

A raft?

That simulated sunlight,
is that because you never leave?

Is there another way out?

How many of your group have gotten sick?

- Sick?
- Sick. As in ill. As in dead.

Is that why it says "Quarantine"
on the hatch?

- Answer the question!
- No one has... No one, no one is sick.

Get up.

Move.

Stand right there.

Do you know how to use this, Box Man?

- Haven't seen one of those in 20 years.
- Do you know how?

- Yes.
- Sit.

Right, now listen carefully.

Type in exactly what I tell you.
Understand? Exactly. Nothing else.

4...8... 15...

- Do you hear that?
- What?

What'd you just put in?
What number did you just put in?

- 15.
- Right. 16...

23... 42...

Now press “Execute."

- What's gonna happen?
- Just push it.

Kate!

- Locke!
- Who the hell is that?

That would be Jack.

Who is he?

His name is Jack. He's our doctor.

What's he doing here?

To be honest with you,
I'm a little surprised to see him.

Your doctor has a gun, brother.

Move.

Make one sound and I'll shoot.
Move!

Jack! Jack!

Jack!

I wouldn't do that, Jack.

- Where's Kate? What the hell did you...
- Move and I kill him.

- Put the gun down.
- Where's Kate?

- Jack, it's OK.
- I said drop it!

- Where's Kate?
- She's fine. Just put down...

I'm not putting down anything...

Do you want him to die? Put it down.

Is this what you were talking about,
Locke? Is this your destiny?

- "All roads lead here"?
- Calm down.

Lower your gun, or I'll blow
his damned head off, brother.

You!

What the hell is that?

It's part of the raft,
one of the pontoons.

Stop paddling.

Hey, stop it! You're putting a strain on
the vines. It's going to break us up.

Damn it, you're gonna sink us!

Sawyer!

- Climb up!
- I do and we both sink.

I'm going for the pontoon.

Don't be an idiot.

You see that toothy son of a bitch,
you aim and squeeze. Got it?

Got it.

Come on! Come on, come on!

Sawyer!

Sawyer!

Gimme your hand!

There he is. Do you see him?

Hi.

- Hey.
- I'm sorry I'm late.

Packing's been a disaster and the plane
leaves first thing in the morning.

Sure. No problem.

Hey, do you wanna say hi, Walt?

Hi, Walt. I'm...

I'm...

Hey, this is for you, man.
He like bears?

Yes. Sure. He's just really shy.

Hey, little man.

Well, I guess I can't call you that,
I mean, because look how big you are.

So, you and I, we're not gonna
see each other for a while, Walt.

But you are gonna have a great life.

I know your mommy, she's going
to take real good care of you.

And Brian is gonna take good care
of you, too.

But you know what?

I just want you to know
that no matter where you go, I...

That your daddy...

Yeah, your daddy,
he loves you very, very much.

And I always will.

Always. OK?

- I'm sorry, he's...
- No. It's OK.

It's OK.

Hey, here.

Just, you know...

Let him know it's from me sometime, OK?

OK.

Goodbye, Michael.

Yeah. Bye.

You all right, Mike?

It's my fault.

What?

I never should have brought him
on the raft.

I'm gonna get him back.

I'm gonna get back my son.

How about that?

Current brought us back.

We're home.

Jin?

- Michael! Sawyer!
- Jin!

- Others! Others!
- What?

- Others! Others!
- What?

Others.
