Lost (2004–2010): Season 3, Episode 10 - Tricia Tanaka Is Dead - full transcript

Having returned to camp, Sawyer's help is enlisted by Hugo, who has an obsession with retrieving an old VW van found on the island. More events in Hugo's life are also revealed, showing what brought him to be on the doomed flight.


You got this thing running yet, buddy?

Nah, but I got your tools all set.

Let's see if we can
get this thing started, OK?

I thought we needed a new carburettor?

Well, maybe we don't.
Come on, slide behind the wheel.

Let's fire this up.

What's the matter? Go ahead.

This is stupid. Without a new
carburettor, it's not gonna work.

Having hope is never stupid.

You gotta believe good things
will happen, and then they will.

Understand what I'm saying?



In this world, son,

you gotta make your own luck.

All right? All right. Come on.

Well... what are you
gonna fix today?

We'll have to put that
on hold for a little while

'cause... I gotta go to Vegas.

I got some work out there.

What about the road trip?

Well, the Grand Canyon will still
be there when I get back, little dude.

Hey, I got something for you.

I'm not supposed to, Mom says.

Live a little, Hugo.
It's just a candy bar, OK?

All right. I'll be back
before you know it.

- Hold down the fort?
- All right.



You're my man? All right.

So then the Others
take the bags off our heads

and we were, like,
on the other side of the island.

And... they take Jack,
Kate and Sawyer someplace,

and they sent me back
to warn everyone to stay away...

...which I did and...

...now everyone's freaked out.

With them gone and...
what happened to Eko...

...they're all scared.

And I'm scared.

But then, I've...

...been scared most of
my time here anyway.

Except when I'm with you.

I miss you, Libby.

Bloody hell.

- Dude, you OK?
- Peachy.

Really? Because you've kind of
been moping the last...

Look, it's not worth
talking about, Hurley.

Dude, you can tell me anything.

Desmond...

...said I was gonna die.

He told me he has these flashes...
visions, whatever.

And in them, I always die.

So, this is the part where...

...you tell me, "It is ridiculous.
Don't be daft. He's a nutter."

I think he might be right.

- And I think it might be my fault.
- Your fault?

I'm kind of cursed.

Death finds me, dude.

Vincent?

Is that an arm?

Here, Vincent!
Come here! Vincent!

I think we need to get that.

Yeah.

Chase the dog with the skeletal arm
into the jungle, be my guest!

OK.

If I'm not back in three hours,
tell somebody.

Vincent!

Vincent, come here!

Vincent.

Vincent.

Awesome.

It's everyone's fantasy,
winning the lottery,

untold millions falling
into your lap overnight.

What would you do with all that money?

One such lucky winner recently bought...

...a chicken shack.

I'm Tricia Tanaka, with Hugo Reyes,

winner of a record $114 million,

outside Mr Cluck's
Chicken Shack in Diamond Bar

which will be having
its grand re-opening tomorrow.

So, Hugo, I think the question
on everyone's mind is,

why did you buy Mr Cluck's?

I like chicken?

Also with us
is Hugo's former boss,

and now employee, Randy Nations.

That's probably every working stiff's
fantasy, isn't it, Mr Reyes?

OK, so, Hugo,
tell us what else you've done

since you got on your lucky streak.

Actually, I've kind of had
some bad luck, too.

My grandpa, Tito,
died of a heart attack.

And the first house
I bought my mom burnt down.

My friend Johnny ran off
with my girlfriend Starla.

This guy jumped off
my accountant's roof.

- Cut!
- The...

What the hell was that?

It's a puff piece.
Do you know what that is?

Yeah.

Sorry, Tricia Tanaka.

Do you mind if we go inside
and shoot some B-roll?

- I don't know...
- Yeah, of course you can.

I mean, he's just superstitious.
You know, the ribbon isn't cut yet.

OK, let's go.

Oh! God, I hate this!
I always get the stupid stories!

- Hey. You sure it's OK?
- Yeah, relax.

The safety guards are on the fryers?

Those fryers are stone cold.
All right?

- We don't start cooking until tomorrow.
- You hear something?

And then pan through the...

Well, we're out of Dharma oat bars.

- Already?
- Yep.

- Did you check behind the milk?
- Yeah.

Will you pass me the box of cereal?

Oh. Then I guess we're out of it.

Will you... pass me... the cereal?

From now on, I will only
speak to you in English.

It's how you will learn.

It will be hard at first...

Hey! Hey! Hey, everyone!

- Hey!
- Hurley! What is it?

Is it the Others?

- Are you OK?
- What's going on, man?

Car!

I found a car...

...tipped over in the jungle.

You found a car...

And we can totally fix it,
and get it going again.

It's not far! Come on!

Why do we need to start a car?

Because... it'll be fun.

We could all use some fun,
after everything that's happened?

We need it.

Especially you, dude.

So, who's with me?

Well, I'm gonna cut some bananas.

- Sorry.
- I don't think so, Hurley.

- Sorry, Hurley.
- Good luck.

Come on! Anyone?
We're gonna drive it!

Who's coming?

Thanks, dude.

You have no idea
what you volunteered for, do you?

Come on.

We there yet?

If we are where I think we are,
our beach should be through those trees.

We'll be home in about five minutes.

Try to contain your excitement.

I'm not excited about explaining why
there's two of us coming back, James.

Maybe they should explain
why they ain't come looking for us.

In fact, I'd be surprised if Locke...

What happened?

- Stepped on something!
- Let me see.

- Looks like a dart.
- How the hell did that get out here?

Relax your foot for a second, OK?
I'm gonna pull it out.

On the count of three, ready?

One...

- You said, "three"!
- Anticipation is the worst part.

I thought I would spare you.

You know, all you have
to do is say "sorry."

We could start again.
Give each other a clean slate.

Slate...

...like on Little House?

- What?
- Little House On the Prairie.

Laura Ingalls wrote on
this chalkboard...

You call it Little House?

I had mono when I was a kid.

I missed two months of school and
we only got one channel in my trailer.

What are we even talking about?

We ain't talking about nothing.

- James...
- I ain't got nothing to be sorry for.

So that's how it's gonna be?

Welcome home, Sawyer.

Welcome home, Kate.

Hugo? Is that you, Hugo?

Oh, my God.

- What happened?
- Tricia Tanaka is dead.

- What?
- Mr Clucks, it got hit by a meteor.

Or an asteroid.

I don't know the difference,
but... it's gone.

- That's crazy.
- It's not crazy.

It's the money,
the numbers, I'm cursed.

Tricia Tanaka is dead, and her
camera dude, and it's all my fault.

- It was an accident.
- It's not an accident.

It is a curse,
there's one way to stop it.

- I have to go to Australia.
- Again with Australia?

That's where the numbers came from.

Lenny, in the institution, he told me!

Hugo, Hugo, wait.

I can prove to you you're not cursed.

- You can?
- Yes.

Come here with me.
I have to show you something.

Hey, Hugo!

After 17 years,
your father has returned!

Your mom wasn't kidding
about those candy bars.

Just kidding.

Poor...

...Roger.

Sorry about your arm, dude.

Hurley!

- In. In.
- Totally. Let's check it out.

Roger was on a beer run.

Man, I suck at charades.
You wanna what?

Oh, you wanna take Roger out?

Then turn it over... cool.
I understand!

OK. On three.

One...

...two...

...three!

We'll get that later.

So, when's it going to happen?

- When's what gonna happen?
- Don't play stupid with me... brother.

I was drunk, if I said anything...

I have a right to know
when I'm going to die.

- It doesn't work like that.
- What doesn't?

Hey, Oliver Twist!

- Where's my stuff?
- What stuff?

Oh, you know good
and damn well what stuff.

I had books, food, porno,
a bottle of Scotch!

Apologies for the Scotch, mate.

You drank it?

Well, to be fair, there was three of us.

Yeah, there was.

You, the Munchkin, and who else?

Oh, I got it. We're gonna tip it up.

Crafty.

- "Crafty"?
- Yeah. Crafty.

It's like...

...when you're good at... crafts.

- Never mind.
- Hey! Where the hell's my stuff?

- What are you doing?
- Dude! You're alive!

Alive!

Yeah, yeah, Snuffy.
It's good to see you, too.

I'll be damned,
you found a hippie car.

Pretty cool.

- Sawyer!
- Jin-bo! How you doing?

Good to see you.

Well, look at that.
Somebody's hooked on phonics.

Jack and Kate with you?
They all right?

Kate's with me.

But the doc, they still got him.

OK. It's OK. It's gonna be all right.
Jack's gonna be all right. We all are.

- Well, what a relief.
- Things are getting better.

The car. You coming back safely.
It's a sign.

A sign I want my stuff back.

That you're gonna help us
fix this thing.

- And why in the hell would I do that?
- Because there's beer.

Why did he say "Don't come back"?

He sacrificed himself
so we could escape.

Probably didn't want it
to be for nothing.

Hurley told us they
released Michael and Walt.

Yeah. They gave Michael a boat.
He took off and never looked back.

Did you see any other boats?

No, but something tells me
they didn't give away their only one.

- So they can leave the island?
- I don't know, John.

This "zoo" where they held you,
is that where they live?

We escaped with one of them,
a kid named Karl.

He said that they live on this island.

He could take us,
but Sawyer let him go.

- Why?
- You're gonna have to ask Sawyer.

- Kate, where are you going?
- I don't care what Jack said.

They've got him and we have
to get him back. I owe him that.

So I'm going to get help.

Help from who?

Now that's a hell of a Jesus.

Yes. Hugo is such a good son.

He knows of my love
for the Saviour...

...so he commissioned
artisans in Taxco

to custom carve for me
this statue in solid gold.

Wow. That smells like great lasagna.

The Trons made it themselves.

Hugo found them in Bennigan's.

Now they are our butlers.

Something wrong, Hugo?

Your father asked you a question, Hugo.

My "father"?

You're acting like he never left.
Like he hasn't been gone for 17 years!

And all of the sudden he shows up?
Aren't you at least a little suspicious?

I showed up because your mom called
and said you were in trouble.

- What?
- All these numbers and curses.

Hugo, I don't know what to do anymore.

I thought you needed
a manly influence, a father,

to get you to stop this nonsense.

I'm not crazy!

And the only reason he's back
is 'cause he wants the money.

- That hurts.
- Well, guess what.

There isn't gonna be any money.

Mr Tron, Lady Tron.

Your services will no longer be needed.
Severance.

I'm doing you a favour. It's a matter
of time before the curse gets you,

and you... die, or worse.

- What are you doing?
- Getting rid of it. All of it.

The money. The houses. The livestock.
And I'm starting with him.

No, Hugo. Your father is
staying with us.

He's staying with us? Where?

- It's been 17 years, Hugo.
- What's been 17 years?

I have needs.

No! No! No!
This can't be happening.

He has to go! He has to!
I want him gone!

- No, you don't.
- Yeah, I do.

Why don't you show your father
what you have in the garage, Hugo?

I can't believe it.

You saved it.

You saved it.

Me first, now, come on.

What the hell is up
with all this recycling?

You got me, dude.

Looks like those Dharma freaks
were building some sort of dirt road.

Now we're talking.

Looks good to me.
The engine's fine, right?

Son of a...

- What's a head doing back here?
- That's just Roger.

I'm gonna start the car now.

Dude, even if you were
speaking English

I wouldn't understand you.
Just relax.

We're good. This'll work.

I have hope.

This will work.

Damn it.

It's flat and it stinks.

Can you get it to work?

Chill out. Let the man do his thing.

That beer's been sitting there
since before Rocky III.

Maybe even II.
It's probably poison by now.

Skeletor seems to like it.
Bottoms up!

That's not cool, dude.

That guy had a mom,
a family and friends.

Oh, and a name. It's not "Skeletor,"
it's "Roger Workman."

It's "Work Man," you blockhead.

That's his job. He was a Dharma janitor.

Yeah, well, you should still
respect the dead.

- Can you fix it?
- No.

No fix.

But you have to! Can't you try, dude?
I mean, we gotta get this running!

Leave the man alone. He's right. No fix.

Look at that mess. There's no way
it's gonna run. How thick are you?

What's your problem, man?
Why don't you want this to work?

I don't care if it works.
Why is it important to you?

Because we could all
use a little hope!

If it's hope you're looking for, ése,
you're on the wrong damn island.

Because sure as hell
ain't no hope here.

Come on, Hugo! Time to get up!

Come on! Rise and shine,
hit the deck!

Come on, we're burning daylight,
let's go!

- What's with the earphones?
- It's for the noise.

Well, your mother is
a very passionate woman.

That is disgusting.

We're going on an adventure.

- I'm not going anywhere with you.
- Look.

Just do this one thing with me.

If it doesn't work,
you can go to Australia.

I won't stop you. OK?

What one thing?

We're gonna break the curse.

- This is stupid.
- Just give her a chance, man.

Cut the deck, please.

You've come into
a great deal of money.

You could've seen that on the news.

But it hasn't brought you happiness.

No, it's brought you great misfortune.

She didn't see that on the news.

- I'm seeing numbers.
- What numbers?

Four. Eight. Fifteen.

Sixteen. Twenty-three. Forty-two.

There is darkness
around these numbers.

Great tragedy.

I'm sorry.

What? What is it?

Death. It surrounds you.

And...

...more is coming.

Your hands. Please.

There is a curse on you.

But it can be removed.

Now, Hugo, I need you
to remove your clothes.

My clothes?

A curse is like an unwelcome
entity that lives inside you.

And it must be exorcised.

Did my dad put you up to this?

- What?
- Hugo, please.

I'll give you $1,000 now if you admit
my dad told you to say this.

The mystic arts are not
subject to bribes. How dare you...

- Ten thousand.
- Your dad put me up to it.

I was just trying to help.

Help who?

Beer.

- Beer.
- Bingo. Beautiful.

Car.

- Car.
- OK.

International House Of Pancakes.

What are you doing over there?

- I'm praying.
- Praying for what?

Help.

Well, hell, I got you
a little help right here!

Dude! Hey, dude!

Stop moping, come on!

Not moping.

Thinking.

When people stare out at the ocean
and get quiet-like, they're moping.

So get up and come with me.

That car I found,
we're getting it running.

What's the point?

- What did you do that for?
- Snap out of it!

Stop feeling sorry for yourself because
someone said you're gonna die.

I've got an idea that's
gonna help us both. Now...

It is dangerous.

And there is a very good chance
that you will die.

That's supposed to convince me to come?

It is. Because if you don't die,
then we win.

- Win?
- Look, I don't know about you, but...

...things have really sucked for me
lately, and I could use a victory.

So let's get one, dude.
Let's get this car started.

Look death in the face. Say, "Whatever,
man." Let's make our own luck.

What do you say?

"I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry."

OK. Nice. Keep it coming.

"You were right."

OK. That's two.

Hit me.

"Those pants don't make you look fat."

Now you got it. Only three things
a woman needs to hear.

Come on! Get up. We got work to do.

What's your problem, JumboTron?

Shut up, red... neck... man.

Touché.

What's Jiminy Cricket doing here?

- We need another man.
- Another man for what?

- Push this car, dude.
- Push it? Push it where?

Hey!

Oh, this is gonna be real good.

So you're going to Australia, huh?

- Long way to go because of numbers.
- I'd really like you to leave.

When your mom called me
about the lottery,

I was on my bike
before she could hang the phone up.

I'm getting old.

Yeah, I saw my retirement.

You're right.

I'm here for the money.

You're not getting any of it.

Well, that's not why
I'm here talking to you now.

I'm here talking to you now because

going to Australia
is not gonna break any curse.

You don't need to leave. You just...

You need a little hope.

We make our own luck, Hugo.

- You know what I think you should do?
- What?

I think you should give away
the money. All of it. Every penny.

Just save enough for a new carburettor.

Work on the Camaro.

You know, just you and me.

Take it off the blocks and make
that road trip to the Grand Canyon.

Never too late for a fresh start.

I'll send you a postcard from Sydney.

Hey. I'll..

I'll be here when you get back.

Are you nuts?
You're not gonna drive down that!

We're gonna jump start it.

You guys push it. On the way down I'm
gonna pop the clutch and get it started.

You see those rocks?

All you're gonna do
is crash into those real fast...

...if you don't roll first.

- Hurley, no.
- Dudes, I know how to drive.

Now, come on, just push me,
this will work. I know it.

And what are you out here for,
to watch him crash and burn?

I came to ride shotgun.

Well, it's your funeral.

Come on, let's give them their ride.

Are you sure you wanna do this?

Victory or death.

Push!

Dude, careful, now!

Here goes!

And now would be a good time, Hurley!

- Like right now!
- There is no curse.

You make your own luck!

Make your own luck...
there's no curse!

Son of a bitch.

Hurley!

Hey, hold up!

All right, come on!

Kate...

...if you were looking for help,
why didn't you ask us?

You don't know where to look,
and you're not motivated.

And I don't blame you.

Why would you go trek across the island,
risk more lives to get Jack back?

- You're wrong.
- Oh, really? Why didn't you come...

Not about the motivation,
just about knowing where to look.

We got a compass bearing.
And I'm pretty sure if we follow it,

- it'll lead us right to them.
- How?

Because of the way the sunlight hit Mr
Eko's stick when John was burying him.

Now you know our secret,
how about you tell us yours?

No, no, no!
Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

It's all right! It's safe!

We're just here to talk!

You can come out!

What are you doing here?

I came to ask for your help.

- To do what?
- I'm heading to the Others' camp.

And if I'm gonna find it,
I need someone who knows the island.

What makes you think
I have an interest in helping you?

Because they had me,
and they would've never let me go.

They probably would've killed me
if I hadn't escaped.

And the girl who helped me escape...

...she was about 16 years old...

...and her name was Alex.

I'm pretty sure
that she's your daughter.
