[At the spring, Jack kneels next to Sayid and smiles]
HURLEY: It worked? Dude! You're okay!
[Hurley kneels and hugs Sayid]
JACK: Hurley, let him breathe. Miles, can you go get some water?
[Miles stares at Sayid in confusion]
MILES: Yeah... on it...
[Miles exits]
JACK: Sayid? Hey... how are you feeling?
SAYID: A little light-headed...
[Jack chuckles]
[Jin crouches nearby and stares]
SAYID: Jack? What happened to me?
JACK: You died.
[Kate and Sawyer watch from a distance]
KATE: How is that even possible? I mean... one minute he's gone and now he's fine?
SAWYER: Of course he's fine.
KATE: What does that mean?
SAWYER: He's an Iraqi torturer who shoots kids, he definitely deserves another go around.
[Jack, Hurley, and Jin help Sayid up]
[Sawyer stares outside]
KATE: What are you lookin' at?
SAWYER: How many guys with guns you think are outside this place?
KATE: What?
SAWYER: I was out cold when they brought me in here. How many guards did you see? Five? Ten? A hundred?
KATE: What are you thinking?
SAWYER: I'm thinkin' about runnin', Kate.
[Kate walks outside the airport, stops as she spots Mars speaking to security]
MARS: She's got handcuffs on but she's probably got them covered, okay?
[Mars sees Kate through the crowd]
MARS: Hey!
[Kate runs, Mars bumps into a man as he gives chase]
MAN: Hey, watch it!
[Kate climbs into a taxi]
KATE: Go! Go now!
DRIVER: Lady, I already have a customer.
[Kate points a gun at his head]
KATE: Damn it, I said go!
DRIVER: Okay!
[Tires squeal]
KATE: Easy! Easy! Slow down! Hey! Just slow down! Slow down!
DRIVER: Okay! Okay! You said go!
KATE: Just get us out of here...
[Mars sees the cab]
MARS: Hey! Hey! Stop the cab!
[He hits the trunk as the cab passes]
CLAIRE: Please, please just let me out--
KATE: Be quiet!
[Kate points the gun at Claire]
[The driver is distracted by a nearby police cruiser and almost hits a man picking up his luggage in the crosswalk]
[Brakes squeal, horns honk]
KATE: What are you doing?
DRIVER: There's a guy.
KATE: Move!
DRIVER: I'm not gonna run him over!
[The man in the crosswalk, Arzt, turns and sees the cab]
ARZT: Hey, I'm walkin' here! I'm walkin' here!
[Arzt continues picking up his spilled luggage]
[Kate notices Jack standing nearby and they exchange a bizarre glance]
[Claire opens her door and attempts to flee the cab, Kate wrestles her back in]
KATE: Do not get out of this car!
[Kate turns to the driver]
KATE: Just go. Go! Now! I don't care about the guy, go!
DRIVER: Okay...
[The cab goes forward, dragging a piece of Arzt's luggage along with it]
ARZT: Hey! Hey! What the hell? Hey, I got your license plate!
[The cab approaches an intersection as the light turns red]
KATE: At the light, take a left.
[The cab driver watches Kate in the rear view mirror]
CLAIRE: Can you... c-can you please, please just let me go? I promise I won't say anything to anyone--
[The cab driver quickly opens his door and runs into the street]
KATE: Hey! Hey!
[Kate sighs]
KATE: Damn it!
[She climbs into the driver's seat and speeds away]
[Tires squealing]
[Another car almost collides with them in the intersection]
[Brakes squealing, horn honking]
KATE: Give me your purse!
CLAIRE: But I... I--
KATE: I said give me your purse!
[Claire sobs as she hands over the purse]
[Kate slams on the brakes]
KATE: Now get out of the car.
CLAIRE: Can I please just... just get my suitcase--
KATE: No, you can't! Get out of the car!
[Sobbing, Claire exits the car]
[Kate peels away from the curb]
[Kate walks out of the temple into a yard]
[Jack and Jin help Sayid into the yard]
JACK: Easy...
[They lower Sayid into a sitting position]
[Hurley follows behind, Miles approaches with some water]
SAYID: Who are these people? What do they want?
HURLEY: It's the Others, dude. They caught us. Again. I don't know, I think they're... trying to protect us.
MILES: Yeah, and as you can see, Hugo here has assumed the... leadership position, so... that's pretty great.
[Sayid notices Jack staring at his abdomen]
SAYID: What?
JACK: The wound. It's almost completely closed.
[Jack lifts Sayid's shirt, Sayid examines his wound]
SAYID: Thank you, Jack.
JACK: For what?
SAYID: Saving my life.
[Doors slam]
[Jack stands as Dogen and Lennon enter the yard, accompanied by some Others]
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
LENNON: Mr. Jarrah, will you come with us please?
SAYID: Come with you where?
LENNON: Inside. Nothing to worry about, we just--
JACK: I'm coming with him.
LENNON: Oh, I'm sorry, we need to talk to him alone. Just a few questions...
JACK: You have a few questions? Well, so do we. I mean let's start with, who are you? Why are you holding us here? You--
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
LENNON: Once we've spoken to Mr. Jarrah we will be more than happy to tell you everything you want to know.
JACK: Something tells me... that you're not gonna be happy to tell us anything.
[Jack and Dogen stare at one another]
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
[The Others attack, wrestling with Jack and striking Miles]
[The sounds of the struggle are interrupted by gunshots]
[The Others take aim at Sawyer, who has stolen a pistol]
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
LENNON: Don't shoot! Lower your weapons!
[The Others comply, Lennon approaches Sawyer]
LENNON: Please. You don't have to do this. We won't hurt your friend...
SAWYER: He ain't my friend. Do what you want with him. And anybody else. But me? I'm walkin' outta here.
KATE: James...
SAWYER: I'm gone! You understand?
DOGEN: Please... you have to stay.
SAWYER: No. I don't.
[He removes the barricade and steps through the door, Kate stares at him]
SAWYER: Don't come after me.
[He slams the door shut]

DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
[Some Others carry Sayid into the temple, more of them restrain Jack]
JACK: Hey! Hey! Where're they taking Sayid?
[Aldo enters the yard]
ALDO: Hey! Calm down! Everybody calm down!
[Aldo points a gun at Jack]
LENNON: Where'd Ford go?
JACK: What?
LENNON: Ford. Your friend who just ran out of here. Where did he go?
JACK: I don't know.
LENNON: You expect me to believe that?
JACK: He told me he wanted to kill me. Do you believe that?
KATE: I can bring him back.
LENNON: You know where he went?
KATE: No, but I can track him. Let me go, I will bring him back, and I can make him stay.
JACK: Kate? You sure you want to go out there alone with these people?
JIN: I'll go with her.
LENNON: It's very important that he gets back here safely. What makes you think he's going to listen to you?
KATE: I can be very convincing when I want to be.
[Radio playing, belt sander grinding]
[Kate pulls up to a garage and approaches a mechanic with her gun drawn]
KATE: Where's your tire hammer?
[The mechanic shuts off his tool and removes his safety glasses]
MECHANIC: You got a problem.
KATE: So do you. Where's your tire hammer?
MECHANIC: A tire hammer will just cut off your wrists. Your problem is you need a punch press. And you're not going to be able to use one of those and keep that gun pointed at me.
KATE: You volunteering? [lowers gun]
MECHANIC: I got a steady hand but I kinda feel like we got on the wrong foot.
KATE: [smiles] I'll give you two hundred dollars.
MECHANIC: Now hold still. [Mechanic takes the cuffs off]
KATE: [sighs] Thanks.
MECHANIC: So why the bracelets?
KATE: I'm wanted for murder.
MECHANIC: Murder?
KATE: You don't have somewhere I can change do you?
MECHANIC: [Laughs] Bathroom's over there; make it quick.
KATE: Thank you. [goes to bathroom]
[Kate opens Claire's bag, finds a picture of Clair obviously pregnant, and a stuffed black & white whale - she looks pensively into the mirror]
[Back at the temple, Kate is packing her bag for the trip]
ALDO: [Hands her something] Better not slow us down.
KATE: Better not slow me down.
[Jack comes and sits next to Kate.]
JACK: I would go with you, but um-
KATE: Sawyer would kill you?
[Jack chuckles]
KATE: I'll take care of James; you take care of Sayid. [Jack nods]
JACK: Deal.
[both standing up]
KATE: Goodbye. [Jack grabs Kate's elbow]
JACK: Be careful.
[Kate stares at Jack, slightly smiles, then walks out of the room]
[Sayid is strapped to a table; Dogen is standing near him]
SAYID: What is it you want? Please, whatever your thinking of doing.
[Dogen puts some ash(?) in his hand, and blows it over Sayid's chest, looking for a reaction]
SAYID: What is that?
[Dogen hooks some electrical wires to Sayid's chest]
SAYID: Just tell me what you want.
[Dogen electrocutes Sayid, who screams in pain]
[Dogen clips off the wires]
SAYID: Why? Why are you doing this?
[Dogen grabs a hot poker]
SAYID: I don't have any secrets.
[Dogen presses the poker on his chest, Sayid screams in pain]
DOGEN: [Japanese]
LENNON: I'm sorry we had to put you through that. [Free Sayid] It was a test. We had to be sure.
SAYID: Test to be sure of what?
LENNON: Don't worry, you passed.
[Others walk Sayid out of the room]
LENNON: I just lied to him, didn't I?
DOGEN: Yes.
edit Act 3
[the cab Kate stole pulls up to the curb where Claire is sitting on a bench - Claire looks nervous]
KATE: Where were you going?
CLAIRE: What?
KATE: Before I got in the cab, where were you going?
CLAIRE: Why, so you can hijack them too?
[Kate gets Claire's stuff out the trunk]
CLAIRE: I was waiting for a bus.
KATE: Came to bring you your stuff. [hands bags to Claire] Relax, I didn't take your money.
CLAIRE: Well, um, gee thanks.
KATE: So where were you going?
CLAIRE: Don't worry about it.
KATE: [in resignation] ...fine. [She turns to get back in the cab]
CLAIRE: Langdon Street, Brentwood.
KATE: You got family there?
CLAIRE: Ah, no - it's a... couple who's adopting my baby. They were, um, they were meant to meet me at the airport but I guess they got their days mixed up or something. It's not like they abandoned me.
KATE: Brentwood's not far, get in.
CLAIRE: Seriously?
KATE: Do you want a ride or not?
[Claire reluctantly gets into the cab with Kate]
[Kate and Jin along with Justin and Aldo are walking through the jungle]
KATE: So why do you people want us to stay at the temple?
ALDO: We're protecting you.
KATE: From what?
ALDO: You been on this island a while, right? Ever see a big pillar of black smoke, makes a tikka-tikka sound, looks pissed off?
KATE: Yes.
ALDO: From that.
JIN: Do you know anything about another plane coming in? An Ajira flight?
ALDO: I'm sorry, is this a press conference?
JUSTIN: I think he means the one that landed in--
ALDO: Justin! Shut up.
KATE: Nonono that's a decoy trail, he went this way.
ALDO: And you're basing this on what?
KATE: Experience!
JUSTIN: Aldo.
ALDO: What?
JUSTIN: I think she's right.
ALDO: Of course she is. After you princess.
[they all follow Kate]
ALDO: So what's your strategy for bringing your boyfriend back - I hope you got one because he shot a guy on his way out - and if he try's that on me I'm gonna blow his head off.
[Justin stops Kate from springing a trap she missed]
JUSTIN: Watch it. [Kate sees the tripwire]
KATE: Thank you.
JIN: Looks like one of Rousseaus traps.
JUSTIN: The french woman? She's been dead for years, this couldn't be one of--
ALDO: Justin! Shut up.
[Kate walks up to Aldo and pokes him in the chest with her canteen]
KATE: What was he gonna say?
ALDO: You don't even remember me do you? [Kate looks confused] - You don't recognize me? Well maybe this'll jog your memory - three years ago, you staged yourself a little prison break, [Kate innocently takes a swig of water] and ya did it by knocking the guard out with the butt of your rifle, that would be me- [Kate knocks Aldo out with the canteen then she turns quickly and throws it at the tripwire, activating the trap which sends a net full of rocks smashing into Justin, knocking him out]
[Kate picks up Aldo's gun and checks the cartridge]
JIN: What are you doing?
[Kate also picks up Justin's rifle, then walks up to Jin]
KATE: Escaping.
[Others bring Sayid back to the spring]
HURLEY: Sayid!
[Miles and Hurley hurry toward Sayid]
MILES: You ok man?
HURLEY: [grabbing Sayid] Jack! Sayid's back! [he props Sayid against a pillar]
JACK: Sayid. What happened?
SAYID: They tortured me.
JACK: Why?
SAYID: Don't know. They didn't ask me any questions.
[Jack, pissed off, walks up to the entrance to Dogens quarters and speaks to the guards]
JACK: Step aside.
[they do, to Jacks mild surprise - he walks through]
[Dogen is mixing an unknown substance together - Lennon is near a bookshelf reading a book]
LENNON: Hey Shephard. [snaps book shut] - We were hoping you'd come on your own.
JACK: [pointing back to spring] What the hell did you do to Sayid?
LENNON: We didn't do anything to him. You're friend is sick.
JACK: Sick with what?
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese] [he begins pouring unknown substance into a capsule]
LENNON: He's, yeah-I-tss, not really, there's not really a literal translation, the closest thing would be... infected.
JACK: Infected? He's not even runnin a fever.
[Dogen laughs, once.]
JACK: Did I say something funny?
LENNON: Eh, doubt it - he doesn't really have a sense of humor.
[Dogen places capsule into paper he was using to pour substance into capsule, folding it]
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
LENNON: He says, you have to give your friend this pill.
[Jack laughs sardonically]
JACK: Are you serious? [Dogen indicates Jack should take the pill] - Why don't you give it to him?
LENNON: Because it won't work unless he takes it willingly and he won't take it willingly from us.
JACK: Well, then maybe you should'a asked him to take it before ya tortured him.
LENNON: We didn't torture him. We were diagnosing him.
JACK: To see if he was infected.
LENNON: Yes.
JACK: I'm not gonna give anything to Sayid unless I know what's in it.
[Jack turns to walk away - Lennon looks at Dogen who indicates not to worry]
DOGEN: Tell me Shephard, your friend, how did he get shot?
JACK: He was, um... he was helping me.
DOGEN: So, it was your fault.
JACK: Yes.
DOGEN: And there have been others who were hurt, or died, helping you?
JACK: Yes.
DOGEN: Well, then this [shows Jack the pill] is your chance to redeem yourself.
[Dogen takes Jack's hand and places pill in it]
DOGEN: It's medicine. And your friend needs it.
JACK: What happens if I don't give it to him?
DOGEN: ...the infection will spread.
edit Act 4
[Miles and Hurley are talking to Sayid by the spring]
MILES: So nothing? there wasn't anything? No white light? Angels singing? No dead relatives?
SAYID: I remember being shot.
HURLEY: You're not a zombie, right?
SAYID: No. I am not a zombie.
MILES: [noticing Jack] ...hey.
JACK: [to Miles and Hurley] ...mind giving me and Sayid a minute?
HURLEY: Yeah, see, private talks kinda freak me out coz they usually lead to me having to do something I don't quite understand.
JACK: Hah, I'm right there with ya.
MILES: It's fine... we'll be in the food court if you need us.
[Hurley and Miles leave - Jack drinks from canteen and offers it to Sayid, who declines]
SAYID: So did they tell you why they burnt me with a hot poker?
JACK: He said they were trying to diagnose you.
SAYID: Right. They told me it was some sort of test. Which they said I passed. Clearly I didn't.
[Jack unfold paper with pill inside]
SAYID: What's that?
JACK: They want you to take it. It's medicine according to them.
SAYID: What about according to you?
JACK: I don't know. And you know before, when you, when you thanked me for saving your life... I didn't have anything to do with it Sayid. I didn't fix you, they did.
SAYID: I don't care who fixed me. I only care about who I trust. So if you want me to take that pill Jack, I'll do it.
[Jack looks at pill then at Sayid...]
JIN: Wait. Where are you going?
KATE: To catch up with Sawyer.
JIN: So you never planned to bring him back to the temple?
KATE: No. I'm not interested in being a prisoner, are you?
JIN: Where did your plane land Kate?
KATE: What?
JIN: The Ajira plane that you, Jack, and Hurley came in on. Where did it land?
KATE: I don't know.
JIN: Sun was on that plane too, and I have to find her.
KATE: You think they're gonna tell you? You think they care about you or about Sun or about any of us?
JIN: Who do you care about Kate?
KATE: Good luck Jin. [She walks away]
JIN: Once you catch up with Sawyer, then what?
KATE: I guess we'll figure that out together.
[Kate driving Claire to Brentwood in the cab]
CLAIRE: So, what happened to your handcuffs?
KATE: I cut them off.
CLAIRE: It's a beautiful neighborhood - bet they're a really nice couple... what?
KATE: I didn't say anything.
CLAIRE: What you think they didn't come to the airport on purpose?
KATE: [facetiously] Why would I think that?
CLAIRE: Good. Coz They didn't.
KATE: This is it. [Kate stops cab outside a house]
CLAIRE: Um... will you come in with me?
KATE: Are you kidding me?
CLAIRE: Please I, I just, I really don't wanna go up there on my own.
[a woman opens the front door with Kate and Claire outside]
CLAIRE: Hi, um, Mrs. (Baskim ?) - I'm Claire Littleton.
BLONDE-LADY: Oh my god - ohh - I'm so sorry. Um, my husband... he left me. And, believe me, I wanted a baby so much, but I can't do it alone. I'm sorry. Look, I know I should've called you.
CLAIRE: ...So, uh, you, you just changed your mind!?
BLONDE-LADY: Look, my, my life is just a little bit complicated right--
KATE: She came all the way from Australia and you don't call?
CLAIRE: Oh my god! [her breathing becomes labored]
KATE: Are you ok?
CLAIRE: Ahhrgh! It's coming!
[Kate approaches the Dharma Barracks - she follows sounds from one of the houses - inside a bedroom she see's Sawyer pushing furniture to get at floorboards underneath - she remains silent and observes, puzzled]
[Sawyer removes Shoebox from the floor, takes out something and starts crying - Kate turns to leave, Sawyer hears her and draws his gun]
SAWYER: Who's there? ... Better come out now or so help me I'm just gonna start shootin'.
[he steps out the room and see's the back of Kate]
SAWYER: What the hell are you doin' here?
KATE: [without turning] I was worried about you. [She turns to face him]
[Sawyer walks right past her and out the house]

KATE: Thank you. [goes to bathroom]
[Kate opens Claire's bag, finds a picture of Clair obviously pregnant, and a stuffed black & white whale - she looks pensively into the mirror]
[Back at the temple, Kate is packing her bag for the trip]
ALDO: [Hands her something] Better not slow us down.
KATE: Better not slow me down.
[Jack comes and sits next to Kate.]
JACK: I would go with you, but um-
KATE: Sawyer would kill you?
[Jack chuckles]
KATE: I'll take care of James; you take care of Sayid. [Jack nods]
JACK: Deal.
[both standing up]
KATE: Goodbye. [Jack grabs Kate's elbow]
JACK: Be careful.
[Kate stares at Jack, slightly smiles, then walks out of the room]
[Sayid is strapped to a table; Dogen is standing near him]
SAYID: What is it you want? Please, whatever your thinking of doing.
[Dogen puts some ash(?) in his hand, and blows it over Sayid's chest, looking for a reaction]
SAYID: What is that?
[Dogen hooks some electrical wires to Sayid's chest]
SAYID: Just tell me what you want.
[Dogen electrocutes Sayid, who screams in pain]
[Dogen clips off the wires]
SAYID: Why? Why are you doing this?
[Dogen grabs a hot poker]
SAYID: I don't have any secrets.
[Dogen presses the poker on his chest, Sayid screams in pain]
DOGEN: [Japanese]
LENNON: I'm sorry we had to put you through that. [Free Sayid] It was a test. We had to be sure.
SAYID: Test to be sure of what?
LENNON: Don't worry, you passed.
[Others walk Sayid out of the room]
LENNON: I just lied to him, didn't I?
DOGEN: Yes.
edit Act 3
[the cab Kate stole pulls up to the curb where Claire is sitting on a bench - Claire looks nervous]
KATE: Where were you going?
CLAIRE: What?
KATE: Before I got in the cab, where were you going?
CLAIRE: Why, so you can hijack them too?
[Kate gets Claire's stuff out the trunk]
CLAIRE: I was waiting for a bus.
KATE: Came to bring you your stuff. [hands bags to Claire] Relax, I didn't take your money.
CLAIRE: Well, um, gee thanks.
KATE: So where were you going?
CLAIRE: Don't worry about it.
KATE: [in resignation] ...fine. [She turns to get back in the cab]
CLAIRE: Langdon Street, Brentwood.
KATE: You got family there?
CLAIRE: Ah, no - it's a... couple who's adopting my baby. They were, um, they were meant to meet me at the airport but I guess they got their days mixed up or something. It's not like they abandoned me.
KATE: Brentwood's not far, get in.
CLAIRE: Seriously?
KATE: Do you want a ride or not?
[Claire reluctantly gets into the cab with Kate]
[Kate and Jin along with Justin and Aldo are walking through the jungle]
KATE: So why do you people want us to stay at the temple?
ALDO: We're protecting you.
KATE: From what?
ALDO: You been on this island a while, right? Ever see a big pillar of black smoke, makes a tikka-tikka sound, looks pissed off?
KATE: Yes.
ALDO: From that.
JIN: Do you know anything about another plane coming in? An Ajira flight?
ALDO: I'm sorry, is this a press conference?
JUSTIN: I think he means the one that landed in--
ALDO: Justin! Shut up.
KATE: Nonono that's a decoy trail, he went this way.
ALDO: And you're basing this on what?
KATE: Experience!
JUSTIN: Aldo.
ALDO: What?
JUSTIN: I think she's right.
ALDO: Of course she is. After you princess.
[they all follow Kate]
ALDO: So what's your strategy for bringing your boyfriend back - I hope you got one because he shot a guy on his way out - and if he try's that on me I'm gonna blow his head off.
[Justin stops Kate from springing a trap she missed]
JUSTIN: Watch it. [Kate sees the tripwire]
KATE: Thank you.
JIN: Looks like one of Rousseaus traps.
JUSTIN: The french woman? She's been dead for years, this couldn't be one of--
ALDO: Justin! Shut up.
[Kate walks up to Aldo and pokes him in the chest with her canteen]
KATE: What was he gonna say?
ALDO: You don't even remember me do you? [Kate looks confused] - You don't recognize me? Well maybe this'll jog your memory - three years ago, you staged yourself a little prison break, [Kate innocently takes a swig of water] and ya did it by knocking the guard out with the butt of your rifle, that would be me- [Kate knocks Aldo out with the canteen then she turns quickly and throws it at the tripwire, activating the trap which sends a net full of rocks smashing into Justin, knocking him out]
[Kate picks up Aldo's gun and checks the cartridge]
JIN: What are you doing?
[Kate also picks up Justin's rifle, then walks up to Jin]
KATE: Escaping.
[Others bring Sayid back to the spring]
HURLEY: Sayid!
[Miles and Hurley hurry toward Sayid]
MILES: You ok man?
HURLEY: [grabbing Sayid] Jack! Sayid's back! [he props Sayid against a pillar]
JACK: Sayid. What happened?
SAYID: They tortured me.
JACK: Why?
SAYID: Don't know. They didn't ask me any questions.
[Jack, pissed off, walks up to the entrance to Dogens quarters and speaks to the guards]
JACK: Step aside.
[they do, to Jacks mild surprise - he walks through]
[Dogen is mixing an unknown substance together - Lennon is near a bookshelf reading a book]
LENNON: Hey Shephard. [snaps book shut] - We were hoping you'd come on your own.
JACK: [pointing back to spring] What the hell did you do to Sayid?
LENNON: We didn't do anything to him. You're friend is sick.
JACK: Sick with what?
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese] [he begins pouring unknown substance into a capsule]
LENNON: He's, yeah-I-tss, not really, there's not really a literal translation, the closest thing would be... infected.
JACK: Infected? He's not even runnin a fever.
[Dogen laughs, once.]
JACK: Did I say something funny?
LENNON: Eh, doubt it - he doesn't really have a sense of humor.
[Dogen places capsule into paper he was using to pour substance into capsule, folding it]
DOGEN: [speaks Japanese]
LENNON: He says, you have to give your friend this pill.
[Jack laughs sardonically]
JACK: Are you serious? [Dogen indicates Jack should take the pill] - Why don't you give it to him?
LENNON: Because it won't work unless he takes it willingly and he won't take it willingly from us.
JACK: Well, then maybe you should'a asked him to take it before ya tortured him.
LENNON: We didn't torture him. We were diagnosing him.
JACK: To see if he was infected.
LENNON: Yes.
JACK: I'm not gonna give anything to Sayid unless I know what's in it.
[Jack turns to walk away - Lennon looks at Dogen who indicates not to worry]
DOGEN: Tell me Shephard, your friend, how did he get shot?
JACK: He was, um... he was helping me.
DOGEN: So, it was your fault.
JACK: Yes.
DOGEN: And there have been others who were hurt, or died, helping you?
JACK: Yes.
DOGEN: Well, then this [shows Jack the pill] is your chance to redeem yourself.
[Dogen takes Jack's hand and places pill in it]
DOGEN: It's medicine. And your friend needs it.
JACK: What happens if I don't give it to him?
DOGEN: ...the infection will spread.
edit Act 4
[Miles and Hurley are talking to Sayid by the spring]
MILES: So nothing? there wasn't anything? No white light? Angels singing? No dead relatives?
SAYID: I remember being shot.
HURLEY: You're not a zombie, right?
SAYID: No. I am not a zombie.
MILES: [noticing Jack] ...hey.
JACK: [to Miles and Hurley] ...mind giving me and Sayid a minute?
HURLEY: Yeah, see, private talks kinda freak me out coz they usually lead to me having to do something I don't quite understand.
JACK: Hah, I'm right there with ya.
MILES: It's fine... we'll be in the food court if you need us.
[Hurley and Miles leave - Jack drinks from canteen and offers it to Sayid, who declines]
SAYID: So did they tell you why they burnt me with a hot poker?
JACK: He said they were trying to diagnose you.
SAYID: Right. They told me it was some sort of test. Which they said I passed. Clearly I didn't.
[Jack unfold paper with pill inside]
SAYID: What's that?
JACK: They want you to take it. It's medicine according to them.
SAYID: What about according to you?
JACK: I don't know. And you know before, when you, when you thanked me for saving your life... I didn't have anything to do with it Sayid. I didn't fix you, they did.
SAYID: I don't care who fixed me. I only care about who I trust. So if you want me to take that pill Jack, I'll do it.
[Jack looks at pill then at Sayid...]
JIN: Wait. Where are you going?
KATE: To catch up with Sawyer.
JIN: So you never planned to bring him back to the temple?
KATE: No. I'm not interested in being a prisoner, are you?
JIN: Where did your plane land Kate?
KATE: What?
JIN: The Ajira plane that you, Jack, and Hurley came in on. Where did it land?
KATE: I don't know.
JIN: Sun was on that plane too, and I have to find her.
KATE: You think they're gonna tell you? You think they care about you or about Sun or about any of us?
JIN: Who do you care about Kate?
KATE: Good luck Jin. [She walks away]
JIN: Once you catch up with Sawyer, then what?
KATE: I guess we'll figure that out together.
[Kate driving Claire to Brentwood in the cab]
CLAIRE: So, what happened to your handcuffs?
KATE: I cut them off.
CLAIRE: It's a beautiful neighborhood - bet they're a really nice couple... what?
KATE: I didn't say anything.
CLAIRE: What you think they didn't come to the airport on purpose?
KATE: [facetiously] Why would I think that?
CLAIRE: Good. Coz They didn't.
KATE: This is it. [Kate stops cab outside a house]
CLAIRE: Um... will you come in with me?
KATE: Are you kidding me?
CLAIRE: Please I, I just, I really don't wanna go up there on my own.
[a woman opens the front door with Kate and Claire outside]
CLAIRE: Hi, um, Mrs. (Baskim ?) - I'm Claire Littleton.
BLONDE-LADY: Oh my god - ohh - I'm so sorry. Um, my husband... he left me. And, believe me, I wanted a baby so much, but I can't do it alone. I'm sorry. Look, I know I should've called you.
CLAIRE: ...So, uh, you, you just changed your mind!?
BLONDE-LADY: Look, my, my life is just a little bit complicated right--
KATE: She came all the way from Australia and you don't call?
CLAIRE: Oh my god! [her breathing becomes labored]
KATE: Are you ok?
CLAIRE: Ahhrgh! It's coming!
[Kate approaches the Dharma Barracks - she follows sounds from one of the houses - inside a bedroom she see's Sawyer pushing furniture to get at floorboards underneath - she remains silent and observes, puzzled]
[Sawyer removes Shoebox from the floor, takes out something and starts crying - Kate turns to leave, Sawyer hears her and draws his gun]
SAWYER: Who's there? ... Better come out now or so help me I'm just gonna start shootin'.
[he steps out the room and see's the back of Kate]
SAWYER: What the hell are you doin' here?
KATE: [without turning] I was worried about you. [She turns to face him]
[Sawyer walks right past her and out the house]
