Lost (2004–2010): Season 4, Episode 2 - Confirmed Dead - full transcript

The surviving members of the supposed "rescue team" are scattered around the island after a helicopter problem. However, once they are located, they reluctantly reveal that they are indeed not there to rescue them.

Previously on Lost:

Hang on, Naomi, we'll get you
back here ASAP.

I'm sorry, George.

Just tell my sister that I love her.

- You killed Naomi!
- She wants her people to come here.

And trust me, when they do,
we had better be far away from here.

If you want to live,
you need to come with me.

No one's going anywhere
with you, John.

- What are you doing?
- Same thing I've always done, Kate.

Surviving.

Thunder's getting louder.



Sorry, Ron.

Drone's got nothing but seafood
at 5,000 meters below.

You pickin' anything up with yours?

Zip.

I'm trying to get her a peek
over this ridge as soon as I can.

Sonar's pinging up something now.

- You want to switch feeds?
- Roger that.

I'm headed on a bearing
of about 137

for the coordinates
we pulled off our guy's map,

but don't hold your breath.

Magnetometer's picking up a hell
of a lot of anomalies down here.

- A chest full of doubloons?
- Keep dreaming, Ron.

Let's swing around on the next grid
and recalibrate.

Are you getting this?



What? What's up?

It... It's an airplane.

Oh, my God.

It's Oceanic 815.

This haunting footage comes to us
from the Christiane I,

a salvage vehicle in the Indian Ocean.

For more than two months
it's been scouring the depths

of the Sunda Trench off Bali in search
of the remains of sunken trading ships.

Late last night the Christiane deployed
two remotely operated vehicles, ROVs,

that verified what the National
Transportation Safety Board long feared,

- that the commercial...
- How do you want your eggs, Dan?

...departing Sydney, Australia,
on September 22, 2004.

So, what happened?
They found that missing plane?

- Dan?
- Oceanic 815 did crash at sea.

- Dan?
- Even with this tragic discovery...

Dan, why are you so upset?

I don't know.

- I can't find my vest!
- Check under your seat!

- I already did!
- Get ready!

Here, just take mine.

Everybody out, now!

Hey, genius! Go!

Go!

Hey. Are you Jack?

Yeah. I'm Jack.

Who are you?

I'm Daniel Faraday.

I'm here to rescue you.

Hey, Dan. The chopper,
how many of you were on it?

Four, including me.

What happened to the rest of them?

Yeah, yeah. I... have no idea.

I don't know how many of them
were able to get out before it...

...went down.
I jumped, and I lost my...

What do you call it? My pack.

My phone was in my bag.
If I had my phone...

We have a phone.

You have a phone.

Thank you.

- Minkowski.
- Hey, George, it's Daniel.

Dan? The chopper comm went dead.
What happened up there?

I don't know, George.
There was an electrical storm.

All the instruments,
I think they went down.

I made contact with some
of the survivors and...

Dan, am I on speaker?

Would you give me just one second?

Don't worry. Naomi covered for us.

They don't know what Locke did to her.

You sure about that?

OK, OK, so the boat hasn't heard
from anybody else yet,

but these are GPS transponders.

My team and I are wearing these.

The transponders will send
the locations back to the ship,

and the ship will send all locations
back to the phones.

That's my signal,

and we'll hopefully get the signals
from the rest of the team soon.

- Will you help me find them?
- Absolutely.

OK. Thank you.

Where are the rest of your people?

- Most of them are back at the beach.
- Most of them?

Dude, what's wrong with you?
You're gonna get struck by lightning.

The storm is about to pass, Hugo.

It's a freakin' monsoon. We gotta...

Let's go.

Why are you going east?

I thought you said the barracks
were due south.

Because we have to make
a little detour first.

- Detour to what?
- There's a cabin I have to go to.

I thought the cabin was back that way.

What did you say, Hugo?

I thought you were talking about
the airplane cabin.

Why are we wasting our time
going to some shack?

- Because we're supposed to.
- Right.

Like you were supposed to throw
a knife into that Naomi chick's back?

You mind who you're getting
your orders from, Colonel Kurtz?

I got 'em from Walt.

Jack still isn't back.

Anything?

No. But it's a big island.

The freighter could be approaching
from the other side.

That's the spirit.

Juliet, you lived amongst the Others.

Why would Ben say the people
coming here intend to do us harm?

Because he's a liar,

and he's trying to scare us.
That's what Ben does.

Or because the people coming here
intend to do us harm.

How many guns do you have left?

Hey.

Is that from your chopper?

Yeah, yeah, that... Yeah.

They reduced the weight load
when they started going down.

Guess that's why they pushed me out.

What's this for?

I'm not in charge of packing.

- You're not, huh?
- We should...

Hey, Daniel, Why'd you bring the gun?

As a precaution.

Precaution against what?

OK, see...

Rescuing you and your people...

...I can't really say
it's our primary objective.

Then what is?

It's Miles.

It's Miles. Come on.

What the hell you mean
you saw Walt? In a dream?

No dream. It was Walt.

Only... taller.

Taller? Like a giant?

- OK, what exactly did Walt tell you?
- He said I had work to do,

that I had to stop this woman Naomi from
bringing the rest of her people here.

You didn't ask him follow-up questions?

Ben shot me and left me for dead.
Walt saved my life

so I pretty much took him at his word.

He shot you,

yet here you are, fit as a fiddle,
tromping through the jungle.

The bullet went in one side,

came out the other.

I'd probably be dead
if I still had a kidney there.

Anything else?

He's down there.

Hey, Miles!

Miles!

Is he dead?

Back up, handsome.

Miles, take it easy, it's OK.

They're here to help us. It's OK, Miles.

- They're just trying to help.
- Back away from him!

- Hands where I can see 'em!
- Kate, it's all right.

It's OK.

So you're Kate.

You want to tell me where Naomi is?

- What?
- Naomi, the woman you killed.

Where is she?

For the friends and families
of the passengers of Oceanic 815,

this can only be described
as the worst-case scenario.

With the plane accounted for
and a salvage mission unlikely,

authorities are confirming
all 324 passengers dead.

Ms Gardner, I'm Miles Straume.

- We spoke on the phone earlier.
- Oh, please come in.

- Which room is it?
- Upstairs at the end of the hall.

I get paid in advance.
Two hundred, cash only.

You told me a hundred...

That was before my buddy at the police
said your grandson was murdered.

It's gonna be two hundred.

Fine.

No matter what you hear,
don't come up.

You're not doing your grandmother
any good staying here, man.

You're causing her a lot of pain.

I... I want to go downstairs
and tell her you've gone,

but the only way
I'm gonna be able to do that

is if you tell me where it is.

So where is it?

You can go now.

Did it work?

Yeah.

He's at peace now.

Here.

You get a refund. Half off.

Wasn't as tricky as I thought.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Miles. Miles!
Hey, what are you doing?

What are you doing?
These are good people.

Why'd Naomi use the damn code? Yeah.

Remember when she said,
"Tell my sister I love her?"

She doesn't have a sister.

That's what we're supposed to say

if we get captured,
have a gun to our head.

Like right now Jack here would say,
"Tell my sister I love her."

- You get it?
- We didn't kill your friend.

- Then take me to her body.
- Miles, what about Charlotte? Frank?

- Take me to Naomi.
- Naomi was killed, but not by us.

It was a man by the name of John Locke.

- He's not with us anymore.
- Kate, if I have to ask again...

- Even if I took you to her body...
- I'll know!

Now take me to her body.

Alex.

Alex, hey.

- What?
- Something I need to tell you.

Keep your mouth shut, Mr Linus.

Karl. If you're gonna sleep with
my daughter I insist you call me Ben.

Easy, kid. Guy's just
trying to get in your head.

Go take a walk or something.

- Mind if I ask you a question, James?
- Yeah, I do.

Why'd you leave Kate behind?

You're wasting your time, Yoda.

I know it's not pleasant,
but let's face it,

you really don't stand a chance now.

Chance at what?

James, look at yourself.

Yes, on this island,
you're brave, daring, handsome.

You're someone,
but if you left with them...

...back in the real world
a lowlife scam artist like you

could never compete
with a first-class surgeon.

I think Kate was really upset when
you made your choice to come with us.

Thank God she has Jack there
to comfort her...

James!

- Don't!
- Don't what?!

Anyone want to tell me
why we're keeping him alive?

We're keeping him alive because
he's been on this island longer than us,

because he has information we need.

Apart from his mouth,
he's completely harmless.

His mouth put that hole in your gut?

OK, James, let's execute him
right here, right now,

in front of his daughter.

It's only a matter of time
before he gets us, Johnny.

And I'll bet he's already figured out
how he's gonna do it.

So you walk him.

What's he doing?

The light...

...is strange out here, isn't it?

It's kind of like it doesn't scatter

quite right.

Dan?

Your name is Dan, right?

Listen, Dan, I know that you don't
want anybody to get hurt, right?

So why don't you just put that away.

Because Miles would kill me.

We're just trying to help...

Kate, you're wasting your breath.

Just let this play out
and see what happens, OK?

They didn't kill her.
It happened like they said it did.

It's Charlotte. She's only
three kilometres from here.

All right. Let's go get her.

- I said let's go.
- You need to put the guns down.

- What?
- Put the guns down.

- Now why would I do that?
- Our friends are in the jungle now

holding a gun at your head
and his head.

I'll forget about the misunderstanding.
Put the guns down.

How stupid do you think I am?

I don't know, Miles.

How stupid are you?

How many different languages
do you have to read that in

before you believe it's true?

How many different languages are there?

He wants to know if we're lost.

Remind him people in our line of work
are terrible at keeping secrets.

I know about the dig.

- He said the site is closed.
- Then tell him to open it.

Dinosaur?

Not by a few million years.

It's an Ursus maritimus.

Wait, ursus, as in bear?

As in polar bear.

Charlotte, we're in the desert.
This is a hoax, right?

He wants to know what
you're doing with the hammer.

Excavating.

Is that a collar?

Hi.

Hi yourself.

We were worried
when you didn't get back,

so we went out to the cockpit
and tracked you from there.

Thanks for that, for what it's worth.

Don't mention it.

Somebody could've told me
the cavalry were here.

I gave you that... wink.

What are your names?

I'm Daniel Faraday,
and this is Miles...

Don't tell him my last name.

I guess this is just Miles.

- What do you do for a living, Daniel?
- I'm a physicist.

I guess you can call me a physicist.

I don't really like being pigeonholed...

Dan, you say one more word
and I'll break your fingers.

- What do you do, Miles?
- I collect soil samples.

That's nice. Maybe you can help me.

You say you're not here
on a rescue mission,

and the world at large
believes us to be dead.

But here we are, alive and well,

and you don't seem
remotely surprised to see us.

Oh, my God, you guys were on
Oceanic flight 815! Wow!

That better?

I can't believe you're alive.

How many of you are there?

Why do you want to know?

Why wouldn't I want to know?

Forty-eight of us survived the crash.

That's not counting the tail section.

- They're pretty much dead...
- Hugo.

So you've all been living here
this entire time?

Is that your baby?

Yeah. This is Aaron.

Did you have him here on the island?

That's amazing.

Well, I've got about a million
more questions I want to ask you,

but they can wait until
we get you back to the freighter.

We've all got
one of these transponders,

so if we sit tight
they're gonna be here soon.

This team of yours,
how many of you are there?

Four, including me.

What happened to your helicopter?

I don't know. The pilot
was trying to put it down.

- Where?
- I don't know.

I had to jump. It was chaos.

I'm lucky to be alive.

Get up. You're coming with us.

What? Why? We need to stay
where we are so they can find us.

See, there's your problem.

We don't want to be found.

I wouldn't mess around with that
if I were you.

It can't hurt to try and call
someone else.

Oh, it can hurt.

- What'd you do?
- I didn't do anything.

Your friend Charlotte,

she's moving.

And she's moving fast.

She's running from something.

According to this she's right here.

- Charlotte?
- Charlotte!

Over there, over there.

Vincent.

Locke's got her.

We want to caution our viewers
the images

they are about to see are graphic.
Viewer discretion is advised.

Authorities released footage of the
sunken remains of Oceanic flight 815.

The National Transportation
Safety Board has set up a hotline

for family members
of the Oceanic victims.

The NTSB has begun
the victim identification process.

We have confirmation
that this is the pilot,

Captain Seth Norris.

In a statement,
the NTSB said that,

"Due to the sheer depth of the wreck...

...recovery of the bodies
would be next to impossible.

We can only hope that identification
will provide closure

to the families of the victims."

National Transportation Safety Board,
Oceanic hotline.

Let me speak to your supervisor.

Yes, sir. Are you a family member
of the deceased?

No, but I got some information
on the crash.

- May I speak to your supervisor?
- If you could...

I'm staring at the television now,

you're broadcasting footage and saying
that's the pilot, Seth Norris.

Yes, sir?

That's not him.

Please hold.

- Who am I speaking with?
- Doesn't matter.

You're showing footage of Seth Norris.
That's not him.

He married his high school sweetheart,
always wore his wedding ring.

There's no ring on that body.

- Sir, it's likely the ring fell off...
- I'm telling you that is not him.

And how exactly is it that you know
all about Captain Norris?

Because I was supposed to be flying
Oceanic 815 on that day.

That's them.

That's somebody from my team.

What's wrong with you people?
We're here because of you.

I just almost died jumping out
of a helicopter

because you called us for help.

Maybe we should see
who launched that flare.

- They could be hurt, John.
- She's lying.

Whatever they came for, it isn't us.

We keep moving forward as planned.

Who are we to argue
with Taller Ghost Walt?

- Do whatever you want.
- I want you to come with us.

I'm not asking for permission.

If you think you're gonna stop me
from getting to my...

What did you do, you son of a bitch?

- The vest.
- What?

Vest.

Vest.

- Is he alive?
- He's got a pulse.

Frank?

Frank. Hey, hey.

Frank!

Are you OK? What happened?

- We got struck by lightning.
- Frank, where's Charlotte?

She bailed out just...
before we went down.

- I don't know where she is.
- Where's the chopper?

I saw a cow.

Lapidus, where's the chopper?
Where did it crash?

Crash? What the hell kind of pilot
do you think I am?

I put her down safe and sound
right over there.

So this is the team?

Have you familiarised yourself
with their profiles?

Unfortunately, yes. These are the wrong
people for a mission like this.

None of them have field experience,
military training.

You can't just drop them in
unprotected. It'll be a disaster.

They are not unprotected.
They have you.

There's only so much I can do.

Your modesty is positively charming.

This is a high-risk covert op
in unstable territory.

It's dodgy enough without
having to baby-sit a head case,

ghostbuster, anthropologist and drunk.

To be fair he is also
a pretty good pilot.

It's madness.

What if we find survivors from 815?

- There were no survivors.
- Yes, I know.

- But what if there are survivors?
- There were no survivors

of Oceanic 815.

Don't ask questions.
Just do what you were hired for.

Every member of this team
was selected for a specific purpose.

Everything relies on you
getting them in, getting them out

and preventing anyone
from getting killed.

Think you can do that?

Sure.

Why not?

Well?

There's some minor damage, but
the mechanical systems are intact.

- So it will fly, then?
- Absolutely.

Can I have the phone now?

Tell you what. I'll give you the phone

if you tell me what you people
are doing here.

I'll tell you what we're doing here
if you give me the phone.

Don't say anything about your sister.

- Hello?
- Regina, it's Miles.

I need to talk to Minkowski.

Minkowski can't come
to the phone right now.

It's important. Go get him.

Miles, he can't come
to the phone right now.

All right, have him call me
when he can.

I gotta go-

Whoa! What are you doing with her?

- We're taking her with us.
- What's the point? That's not Naomi.

- It's just meat.
- We can't just leave her here.

Miles is right.

We burned up most of the fuel
flying around that storm.

We barely got enough
to get back to the freighter.

We won't carry unnecessary weight.

I'll take her on the next run.

I promise, Dan.

There's a blanket over there
by my backpack. Would you get it?

Look as bad as it feels?

How bad does it feel?

- What's your name again?
- Juliet.

Juliet. Juliet what?

Juliet Burke.

Juliet Burke.

You weren't on that plane, were you?

Miles!

Yeah?

This is Juliet,
and she was not on the plane.

What?!

You sure?

You know how many times
I studied that damn manifest?

There's no Juliet Burke on that plane.
She's a native.

Really? Where is he?!

- Back off!
- Where's who?

You want to know why we're here?
I'll tell you why.

We're here for Benjamin Linus.

Now where is he?

James, listen to me, please.

- Keep your mouth shut.
- Are you OK?

I feel like I've got a cinder block
on my chest, but I'll survive.

Sorry you got shot.
I didn't intend for that to happen.

Really? It seemed like you were
about to shoot me yourself.

What good would you be to me dead?

I feel much more comfortable now.
Thanks.

I guess this is the part where
I'm supposed to say, "I told you so."

James, I stand corrected.

You want me to do it?

No, it's my mess. I'll clean up.

- Wait!
- Danielle, escort Alex away from here.

- Let's go. Come on.
- No!

She's right. Let's go.

Anyone who doesn't want to see this
should leave now.

We should talk about this...

What if one of those bullets
hit you or the baby?

John, listen.

I have information that you need.

I have answers.

What is the monster?

- What?
- The black smoke, the monster.

What is it?

I don't know.

- Goodbye, Benjamin.
- Her name is Charlotte Lewis!

Charlotte Staples Lewis.

Born July 2,1979,
Essex, England.

Parents David and Jeannette.
Eldest of three, all girls.

She was raised in Bromsgrove.

Did her undergraduate studies at Kent.

Took her Ph.D.
in cultural anthropology at Oxford.

She's here with two other
team members and a pilot.

Their names: Daniel Faraday,
Miles Straume,

Frank Lapidus.

Your instinct was right, John.

These people are a threat.

If you shoot me, you'll never know
how great a threat they were.

Because I know what they're doing here.

I know what they want.

What do they want?

Me, James. They want me.

How do you know all this?

Because I have a man on their boat.
