Lost (2004–2010): Season 5, Episode 4 - The Little Prince - full transcript

In Los Angeles, Kate tries to find out who is trying to take Aaron away from her. Back on the island, Locke convinces everyone that they have to go to The Orchid.

Previously on Lost:
- How did you know my father? - He came to see his daughter.
My daughter was on your plane.
Her name was... Claire.
We're here to get a blood sample from you
- and one from your son, Aaron. - Why?
To determine your relationship to the child.
- Where are you going, Mommy? - We're going on vacation, baby.
Wait. You're in LA?
- Of course I can meet. - Hello, Kate.
- You OK? - Get me to the car.
- He said you'd been attacked. - Where's Hurley?
The only way to save the island is to get your people back here.
But how am I supposed to do that?
- What? - You...
Do you know what's happening to me?
Charlotte!
- Hey. - You don't have to whisper.
When he's out, he's out.
At least one of us can sleep.
It's gonna take more than two nights to get used to sleeping in a normal bed.
What are we going to do about him?
About Aaron.
- I don't know. - I've been thinking a lot about it.
Did you know Claire was flying to LA to give him up for adoption?
No... No, I didn't.
I think we should say he's mine.
- What? - Say that I was six months pregnant
when I was arrested, and I gave birth on the island. No one would know.
Kate. You don't have to...
There's other ways to do this.
After everyone we've lost... Michael, Jin and Sawyer...
I can't lose him, too.
Sawyer's not dead.
No.
But he's gone.
Goodnight, Jack.
Kate...
If we're gonna be safe...
If we’re going to protect the people that we left behind,
tomorrow morning I have to convince everyone to lie.
If it's just me, they're never gonna go for it.
I'm going to turn to you first.
Are you with me?
I have always been with you.
How does it fit?
It's perfect. Thank you for the loaner.
Looks great on you.
- Are you sure you want to do this? - It was your idea.
Mommy.
Aaron, honey... Mommy's gonna run out and do an errand,
I'll be right back, OK?
- And then we can go home. - Don't worry about us, Kate.
There's candy in the mini-bar and 100 channels on TV.
We're going to be just fine here.
Sun, I don't know what I would've done if you weren't here.
Thank you.
It's what any friend would do.
OK, well, I will be back soon.
OK, you be good for Sun. OK, honey?
Good luck.
Delivery for you, Ms. Kwon.
- Thank you. - Yes.
I'll be right back, honey.
Charlotte?
- Charlotte? - She's been out for ten minutes!
Stop shouting, James.
- Hey, man. - Thank you.
If there's something you want to tell me, Daniel,
- now would be a good time. - I'm not sure what you mean, exactly.
She's asking why your girlfriend had a seizure.
Give us some space.
She's like this 'cause the sky keeps lighting up!
He knew this would happen and didn't say squat about it.
Go away.
Did you know that this would happen?
I thought... I thought it might.
I think it's neurological.
Our brains have an internal clock, a sense of time.
The flashes throw the clock off.
It's like really bad jetlag.
Really bad jetlag doesn't make you hemorrhage.
You want to tell me why it isn't happening to the rest of us?
I don't know.
But thank God it's not.
Thank you for waiting. Did my assistant offer you something to drink?
- Yes, I'm fine. Thank you. - Please, Ms. Austen, sit.
So... how can I help you?
Mr. Norton, when you came to my house,
looking for blood samples from me and my son,
- I asked you who your client was... - And I said I couldn't tell you.
Yeah... I'm here to offer you a deal.
I'll give you the blood samples, but first I want to talk to your client.
Considering what you're asking for, that's reasonable.
Well, I'm seeing my client later today,
and I will be sure to pass along your offer.
But I am pretty sure what the answer's gonna be.
No.
The reason is that you're in no position to be making any deals,
and we both know it.
I have a signed court order compelling you to confirm you are the mother.
I could send the sheriff over today and make you do it,
but my client insists that we handle the exchange of custody quietly.
What do you mean, "exchange of custody?"
- You know exactly what I mean. - No...
Mr. Norton, I just want to know who is doing this to me.
You did this to yourself.
Now it is time you prepare yourself, Ms. Austen.
You are going to lose the boy.
We have to go back to The Orchid.
- Excuse me? - The Orchid.
That's where all this started, maybe it's where it will all stop.
That greenhouse is a long ways away.
You had a Zodiac raft back at the beach.
Take that, cut around the island, be at The Orchid in half the time.
Let me guess. You know what to do when we get there.
Not exactly, but Ben used it to leave the island.
And if I can do the same thing, I believe I can save us.
- And how are you gonna do that? - This is happening because they left.
It'll stop if I can bring them back.
- Bring who back? - Jack, Sun, Sayid, Hugo.
- Kate. - The boat blew up.
- That chopper was on it. - They're not dead.
- Says who? - That doesn't matter.
All that matters is they've got to come back.
I have to make them come back.
Even if it kills me.
Don't you want them to come back?
Don't you want her to come back?
It doesn't matter what I want.
Hey!
She's waking up!
Are you OK?
- Who are you? - It's me.
It's Daniel.
Daniel.
My head.
- What happened? - There was another flash.
You passed out. How do you feel?
A bit dizzy, but...
- I'm fine. - Good.
Hooray! Everything's back to normal. Now what?
I'll tell you now what...
We're going to The Orchid.
Dilation's almost normal.
Good. Now take this IV out of my arm, and let's go.
You were unconscious for over 42 hours.
You had three doses of horse tranquilizer in your system.
If you sent that man to Hurley's house, we have to leave.
Relax. Ben is not going to hurt Hurley.
Ben is on our side.
- The only side he's on is his own. - Dr. Shephard.
I'm Dr. Ariza, Director of Clinical Services.
A word with you, please?
I'll be right back.
What do you think you're doing here?
I was treating a patient. I apologize, it was an emergency.
You were suspended on charges of substance abuse.
Emergency or not, you have no business being here.
I understand. I take full responsibility for my actions.
No! The hospital takes full responsibility for your actions.
And that makes us liable for them.
Excuse me.
- Hello? - Jack? It's me...
- Hurley? - Hey. Did Sayid get to you?
- Did my dad drop him off? - Yes.
- Where are... - Is he OK?
- He's fine. - Awesome.
- Hurley, where are you? - I'm cool. I'm in LA County lockup.
Tell Sayid I did exactly what he said, I'm totally safe.
- Ben's never gonna get me now. - What are you talking about? Hurley...
Good. You're here. How's Sayid?
How you doing today, sir?
Got your meds for ya.
- Sorry, you have the wrong room. - Nope. Room 133, right?
Got the orders right here.
But don't worry...
...I won't have to give you an injection.
Put this right in your IV line.
Who are you? Who are you working for?
- OK, talk, talk. - The address, it's in my pocket.
Hello, Sayid.
What happened?
Do we know anyone who lives at 42 Panorama Crest?
That's Kate's address.
- Hello? - Kate? It's Jack. Are you OK?
- Yeah, I'm fine. - Where are you now? Are you at home?
- What? - I'll explain once you're out,
- but you've got to get Aaron and... - I'm not home, OK?
- Aaron is at a hotel with Sun. - Sun's in LA?
She's here on business.
Listen, Jack. This is really not a good time. I'm sorry I picked up the phone...
Kate, do not hang up on me. Please, listen.
Will you tell me where you are? I need to see you.
Kate, please.
- I'm downtown. Wilshire and Olive. - OK. All right, I'm on my way.
She's not at home. I'm going to her right now.
- Good. I'll go deal with Hugo. - Sorry, Ben.
- I'm not letting you near him. - You have friends in trouble.
Let's get them to safety and save the dirty linen for later.
I'll drive.
After you get Kate, meet us at the Long Beach Marina. Slip 23.
And Jack? Hurry. We're running out of time.
Hey, Locke...
- What are you gonna say to her? - Sorry?
Kate. What are you gonna say to her to get her to come back?
- I haven't figured that out yet. - Well, let me tell you something.
She was excited to hop on that chopper and get out of here.
What the hell is that?
Whatever it is, we better stay clear of it.
Beach is this way.
- Now you want to take the scenic route? - John... do you know when we are?
We need to keep moving.
Hey, how's your headache?
Better. Nothing like sore feet to take your mind off your head.
Once we get to the beach we're gonna take the Zodiac
to the other side of the island, you can rest.
You're sweet, but you don't need to baby me. I'm fine.
- You OK? - I'm peachy.
Now what?
Nobody move.
- James... - I got this.
It's not gonna want me.
It knows I don't want it and I was going to give it away.
Babies know that stuff.
OK, no. Hang on. Listen... Do you want this baby?
Do you want it to be safe and healthy?
You're not alone in this. We're all here for you. This baby is all of ours.
But I need you to push. OK?
OK? OK.
One... two... three. Push!
Push!
Come on, Claire, push!
OK! OK, we've got the top of his head.
Push, push! Push, push!
Push, push! Push, push!
James.
What happened?
Did you see something out here, James?
It don't matter.
It's gone now.
- You shaved your beard. - Yeah.
Just needed a change.
Look, Jack...
I don't know why you called, but I can't be dealing with this right now.
What's going on?
Nothing. Just... Can you just go, please?
- Why don't you just tell me? - Jack, please, just go.
Please, tell me.
- Somebody wants Aaron. - What?
There's a lawyer in there, his client... They know we're lying.
They know I'm not his mom, and they're going to take him away.
Who's going to take him away?
- What are you doing? - I gotta go. Get in or don't.
Hey. You ready to tell me who you saw back there?
Already told you. It was nothing.
You and I both know when we were before the flash, James.
So who was it you saw? Charlie? Shannon? Yourself?
How is it that you knew when we were, Johnny Boy?
That light in the sky. It was from the hatch, wasn't it?
The night that Boone died...
...I went out there, started pounding on it.
I was confused...
...scared.
Babbling like an idiot.
Asking why was all this happening to me.
- Did you get an answer? - A light came on,
shot up into the sky.
At the time, I thought it meant something.
- Did it? - No. It was just a light.
Why'd you turn us around, then? Don't you want to go back there?
Why would I want to do that?
So you could tell yourself to do things different. Save yourself pain.
No, I needed that pain to get to where I am now.
Hey, I just got a nosebleed.
What? When?
Let's just not freak out the others, OK?
Just tell me, why her? Why me?
I don't know. It might have something to do with duration of exposure.
- Amount of time spent on the island. - Doesn't make sense.
Those yahoos have been here for months.
I've never been here before two weeks ago.
Are you sure about that?
Hello?
The camp's back.
Finally. Anybody for a Dharma beer?
Hello?! Anybody here?
Rose?! Bernard?!
I wonder how long ago this happened.
Son of a bitch!
What is it?
It's Vincent's.
Well, where's the rest of the dog? Where's the rest of our people?
The Zodiac's gone, too.
Maybe your people took the boat.
Why the hell would they do that?
To get away from whoever came in those.
Where did these come from?
That's a good question. They're pretty old.
- Not that old. - Let me see that.
- Ajira. - Ajira. It's an airline.
It's based out of India. They fly everywhere.
Great. Maybe they got a flight out of here to Vegas.
Who came in these? Other Others?
Don't look at me.
My question is: When are they coming back?
Let's not wait to find out.
This plan sounded better when we were going by motorboat.
How far is this place?
Around that point. Not more than a couple hours.
Oh, joy.
You all right?
- I saw Kate. - What?
Last night... in the jungle.
Before the last flash.
She was delivering Claire's baby.
That was two months ago.
Time travel's a bitch.
Get down!
Paddle!
- I think they want their boat back. - Row!
- These your people? - No. Are they yours?
Shut up and keep paddling!
Little help!
Paddle harder, they're getting closer.
Thank you, Lord!
I take that back!
Everybody paddle, head for the shore.
Kate, just because the guy told you he was meeting his client,
doesn't mean they're here. He could've told you that to throw you off.
Or they're in that hotel now.
OK. And what if they are?
What if the person who wants to take Aaron is sitting in that room now?
Then what?
Come with me. We'll get Aaron, put our heads together, figure something out.
No, I...
Oh, my God.
That's Claire's mother.
- Wait. - What am I waiting for, Jack?
Wait... Let's just think about this.
- She knows. - Maybe she doesn't.
She knows about Aaron, and that's all that matters.
Yeah.
- Let me go talk to her. - What?
If I can just explain to her why we did it,
maybe if I can get her to understand why...
She'll listen to me.
I can fix this, Kate. I can fix it.
Hey...
Aaron is my family, too.
- Dr. Shephard? - Hello, Ms. Littleton...
- May I come in? - Of course.
- You're drenched. - No, I'm fine.
God, I haven't seen you since your father's funeral.
How did you even know I was here?
I knew you were here, Ms. Littleton...
...because I followed your lawyer.
Why would you do that?
I did it because...
I understand that you feel the need to do this.
But I need you to know that everything Kate and I have done,
it was for Aaron.
Who's Aaron?
I'm afraid I'm not following you.
Ms. Littleton...
...what are you doing here in Los Angeles?
Let's go. Drive. Call Sun. Tell her to bring Aaron to the Long Beach Marina.
- What are you talking... - We have to go now.
I'm not going until you tell me what happened!
She doesn't know anything.
- What? - She doesn't know.
She still thinks that Claire is dead.
She doesn't know Aaron exists.
- But the lawyer? - She sued Oceanic.
She's in town to pick up her settlement.
It's a coincidence her lawyer happens to be the same one trying to take my son?
I don't know.
But whoever is trying to take Aaron... it's not her.
Then who is it?
Can I ask you something?
Why did you take it upon yourself to rescue Hugo?
I had to make sure Hurley was safe.
Pull in over here.
- Mr. Linus. - Mr. Norton.
I looked into it. They don't have any solid case against Reyes.
The ME said that the man found outside Santa Rosa
- was killed before Reyes escaped. - That's very good news.
We have a prelim hearing in the morning. The judge'll never let it get past that.
Reyes will be a free man.
- Thank you, Dan. - Anytime.
Who was that?
That's my lawyer.
OK.
Remind me never to do that again.
- Where are we? - It's hard to say till it gets light.
We didn't get a chance to finish our conversation.
What conversation was that?
The one before they started shooting at us.
Where you were about to tell me about how it felt to see Kate again.
I wasn't about to tell you anything.
Why don't you tell me now?
I was close enough to touch her.
If I wanted to, I could've stood right up and talked to her.
Why didn't you?
What's done is done.
- Juliet... - What's wrong?
Come and look at this.
It's wreckage. Looks like it just happened.
Anybody speak French?
Jack, why did you call me today?
I told you. I was worried...
Why were you worried? Why today?
- I don't... - Before I called, Sayid was attacked.
The guy that did it, your address was in his pocket.
Sayid? What's he doing here?
That's not important right now.
What matters is that we get you and Aaron someplace safe.
Safe from who?
Hello, Kate.
It's OK. He's with me.
- He's with you? - I know this is hard to understand...
...but he's here to help us.
To help everyone that we left behind.
We all need to be together again.
- It's him. - What?
It's him. He's the one who's trying to take Aaron.
- No. You don't understand... - She's right.
It was me.
Sorry.
Who the hell do you think you are?
Why don't you stay away? Why don't you leave me and my son alone?
Because he's not your son, Kate.
Four, 8...
- No understand. - You speak English?
A little.
- Are you OK? - Yes.
How did you get here?
Boat.
What boat?
It's gone.
Sink.
He must have been caught in the same storm as us.
Who are you?
- How long you were in the water? - I don't know.
How do you not know how you wound up in the middle of the ocean?
Thank you.
What is your name?
Kwon Jin Soo.
- Jin. - Hello, Jin.
I'm Danielle. Danielle Rousseau.
