[narrator] Previously on Lost…

Hugo, you can go back to your camp.

What about my friends?

Your job is to tell the rest of your people

they can never come here.

Rest in peace, Mr. Eko.

Thank you for helping me find my…

I don't care what Jack said.

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

[man] The Pearl is a monitoring station

where the activities of participants in Dharma Initiative projects

can be observed and recorded.

[gasps]

I guess he'll be expecting us.

[woman] To the left of it. Put it over there.

[Sawyer] Ping-Pong table? Where the hell did that come from?

Jin found it when he was out looking for firewood.

We made legs for it and paddles.

Now all we need is a ball.

Found it?

It must have landed in the jungle when the hatch exploded.

I thought the hatch collapsed.

Look, dude, all I know is the sky turned purple.

After that, I don't ask questions.

I just make myself a salad and move on.

Yeah, I can see that's working for you.

Hey, you seen Kate around?

Wow, she's not back yet?

[Hurley] You guys find anything we can use for a ball?

[man] No.

Hey, that's my Guns & Ammo. Where the hell did you get it?

It was in the magazine stack.

We share things now.

Listen, Zorro, it was in my stuff.

Stuff you all decided to have yourselves a little party with

while you thought I was dead.

Listen, hillbilly, if you want it that bad, take it.

Just keep it.

[Sayid] We need to eat.

Are we still on course?

We're still heading north on a bearing of 305.

Yes.

I'm sensing a lack of confidence.

We've been walking for two days following a compass bearing

provided by the carvings on a stick.

And?

You really think we're just going to chance upon where the Others are?

I don't know what we're going to chance on, Sayid,

but my bearing is the only bearing we've got.

I'm going to find some fruit.

And then, John, we're going to have a rational conversation

regarding our next move.

[bell clanging]

[man whistling]

You all looking for something like this?

Cool, a ball.

Uh-uh-uh.

We need to do a little quid pro quo first.

I know I've been gone a while, and you all thought the general store

was having a going-out-of-business sale.

But now I'm back and I want what's mine.

Yeah, but it wasn't really yours to begin with.

A, it was mine when I took it.

B, who the hell are you?

And C, because I'm fair, I'm gonna let you play me for it.

Play Ping-Pong?

That's right, Avalanche. You bastards put up your best player.

One game,

and when I crush them,

you all gotta bring me every piece of my stash back.

If you lose?

I ain't gonna lose, but

if I do,

tell you what, name it.

[speaking in Korean]

[speaking in Korean]

[speaking in Korean]

Ooh.

Looks like Crouching Tiger and Hidden Dragon got something good.

Lay it on me.

No nicknames.

If you lose, no nicknames for anyone

for a week.

Nice.

You're on.

Pick your player. I'll be back in an hour,

then let the slaughter begin.

[ball clattering]

[Locke] Are you sure it's completely isolated?

I've circled the house.

There's nothing but jungle surrounding it.

Here.

[Locke] That dish still work?

A satellite dish of that size would have broadcasting capabilities

of thousands of miles.

Danielle, you once mentioned a radio tower.

Is this it?

I have never been here before.

The man in the house, you said you've seen him before?

On a video feed from the Pearl Station.

So who is he?

Only one way to find out.

We ask him.

What's this for?

If I'm unarmed, he won't feel threatened.

In case he is threatened, you can cover me from here.

Where are you going?

I have no interest in that man inside the house.

I have survived on the island

precisely by avoiding these types of encounters.

I'll wait for you by the stream,

for those of you who survive.

[people clamoring]

Najeev. Najeev.

[in foreign language] A man out front wants to see you.

Did you cook this?

Yes, I did.

Wow. It's delicious.

My name is Sami.

Najeev. Thank you.

Please, sit. Sit.

So where are you from, Najeev?

I'm Syrian.

Please.

[in foreign language] You are as much of an Iraqi as I am, young man.

What do you want from me?

You're an excellent cook.

And I have a restaurant,

much nicer than this place.

Come take a look.

If you like it, I will hire you at twice your pay here.

You're offering a stranger a job because of a single meal?

I'm offering you a job because we are outsiders here.

And because my chef just quit.

[horse neighing]

[gunshot]

No, he's been hit. He's been hit.

Not yet. You want to get shot, too?

I didn't cross the line! We had a truce.

This is my land. You said I could stay here.

I am not who you think I am!

My name is Sayid Jarrah.

I was on a plane that crashed here months ago.

A plane?

I'm unarmed. I swear.

Stay right there.

[gun cocks]

Drop the rifle! Drop it right now!

Back up. Back up.

Are you all right?

You really did crash here?

[Sayid] Over 40 of us, yes.

I'll go in first, make sure it's okay.

Who are you?

My name is Mikhail Bakunin,

and I am the last living member of the Dharma Initiative.

[Kate] Watch your step.

Please.

Sit.

Here, let me.

You've had experience treating gunshot wounds?

[Mikhail] I spent some time in Afghanistan.

I had experience with field medicine in the Soviet Army.

In the kitchen on the top shelf there is a medical kit.

Will you bring it, please?

It's all right, Kate.

[cabinet door opens]

[Sayid] How did you get here?

I almost don't know where to begin.

Why don't you begin with the Dharma Initiative?

I grew up in Kiev and joined the Soviet Army.

I was stationed at a listening post in Vladivostok.

After the Cold War,

after we lost the Cold War,

my unit was decommissioned.

I was dismissed from my life in the military.

And after years of conducting

unpleasant actions against our enemies,

I found myself wanting to do something good.

So I replied to a newspaper advertisement.

An advertisement?

"Would you like to save the world?" it read.

That's how I met them, the Initiative.

They're very secretive, very rich and very smart.

So when did you come to the island?

Eleven years now.

I liked computers, communications equipment,

and being alone, like a lighthouse keeper.

So they put me in this station.

They called it the Flame.

What's the purpose of the Flame?

To communicate with the outside world, of course.

[music playing on computer]

[electronic voice] Ready to play?

Ready to play?

Your move.

What happened to the Dharma Initiative?

They're all dead, of course.

They foolishly initiated a war against the Hostiles.

A purge, they called it.

And how did you survive this purge?

By not participating in it.

I told you, I like being alone.

And the Hostiles allowed you to stay here?

After it was over, four men appeared in the yard.

They offered a truce.

They said to imagine a line that extended all the way around the valley.

As long as I did not cross it, I would be left alone.

Then they took two cows and I never saw them again.

They weren't interested in the satellite dish in the yard?

Why would they be? It hasn't functioned for years.

Who are they, these Hostiles?

I do not know.

But they were here for a long time before we were,

a very long time.

[screams]

[people laughing]

[music playing]

[people chattering]

I'm looking for Sami.

Sami!

Najeev, I am so glad you came.

What do you think? It's a simple place, as you can see,

but we have good customers.

Ah.

Here's my wife. She's in charge of the kitchen.

Amira, come meet Najeev.

Pleasure to meet you.

Are you sure this is him?

Yes.

Look, I don't know who you think I am.

[grunting]

[speaking in foreign language]

What did you just say?

I told Nadia to be polite because you are my guests.

Nadia?

After Nadia Comaneci,

the greatest athlete the world has ever known.

We have the same birthday.

What?

What?

[speaking in foreign language]

Now…

Excellent work, if I say myself.

Thank you, Mikhail.

Perhaps I can begin to earn your forgiveness by offering some iced tea?

I will also check on your friend.

[gasping]

[door opening]

Heh.

Don't waste your time.

For ten years I've tried to defeat that game,

but it was programmed by three Grand Masters.

And it cheats.

-Hmm? Well, -[electronic voice] Ready to play?

I've played a lot of computers,

and I'm pretty sure they don't know how to cheat.

That's what makes being human so distinctly

wonderful.

[electronic voice] Your move.

What's wrong?

Just…

It doesn't make any sense.

Why would they let him stay here with all this stuff?

All this equipment?

Actually, it makes perfect sense.

What are you talking about?

The reason they let him stay here is because he is not Dharma.

He is one of them.

He shot you and you just let him…

Why are we still sitting here?

We are sitting here, Kate, because I am certain he is not alone.

So,

you really the number one draft pick, Grimace?

Yep.

Are we playing with the mercy rule?

Mercy rule?

Yeah, like if I'm up 11-0, then I, you know,

automatically win.

You're going to go up 11-0?

No, I mean either one of us.

Sure. We can have a mercy rule.

You want to volley for serve?

I'll tell you what.

Be my guest.

Take him down, Hurley.

[all cheering]

-[woman] Here we go! -[man] Come on!

Come on, Hurley.

Zero serving zero.

Yes!

[whooping]

One nothing.

I grow the tea myself.

So pardon its bitterness.

Any tea is good tea.

You know how long it's been since we've seen ice?

I noticed a series of thick wires as I walked around the station.

This is the hub,

but they go underground to various stations all over the island.

And these cables, do any of them go into the ocean?

Yes, there is an underwater beacon that emits sonar pings

to help guide in the vessels.

By vessels, you mean submarines?

Yes.

The Initiative used one to bring us here.

But I can imagine only that the Hostiles have either destroyed

or commandeered it by now.

That explains how they were able to get around my position

and capture our sailboat.

You had a sailboat?

Until we lost it to your Hostiles.

That's very unfortunate.

Well, at least we were able to kill one of them.

Why are we continuing to play this little game,

when we all know it has moved to the next stage?

[Sayid grunting]

[gun cocking]

[Kate grunts]

Get some rope.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[metal clattering]

Drink.

You were a torturer, were you not?

In the Republican Guard.

Do you not recognize

one of your victims?

Do you not recognize the woman that you tortured?

Do you not recognize my wife?

No. I've never seen…

You've confused me with someone else.

Amira was arrested for harboring an enemy of the state.

She was held for three months while she was questioned.

Her arms bear the scars of those questions.

So I assure you, Najeev, I am not confused.

My name is not Najeev.

I'm Sayid Jarrah.

I was in the Republican Guard, and, yes, I was an interrogator,

but I have never seen your wife.

Maybe she saw me at the same facility, but I do not know her!

I can remember every face of every person I've interrogated.

She remembers your face.

She remembers it so well

that she recognized it from a mere glimpse

when we walked by the restaurant where you worked!

[chains clanging]

What do you want from me?

I want you to admit to what you did.

And if you don't,

you will leave this room in that bag.

How do you know he isn't alone?

The horse outside is still saddled,

and the stirrups are set up for someone much shorter than this man.

You think the Others sent someone to keep him company?

They sent someone out here because they lost communications.

Maybe when the sky turned purple?

That would be my guess.

If there is someone else here, they're hiding pretty good.

I checked every nook and cranny of this place.

Not every nook and cranny, John.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[footsteps approaching]

[metal clanging]

Are you ready to tell me the truth?

I have told you the truth.

I do not know you. [grunts]

You tortured her.

No, I would never touch a woman.

Do you think this will do any good?

That this will make me confess to something I didn't do?

My wife confessed to something she didn't do.

She confessed when you poured a pot of boiling oil over her arm.

No. I did not. You have the wrong--

Admit it!

Admit it!

I cannot admit to something I didn't do.

That is enough for today.

Then I will see you tomorrow.

[door opens]

[electronic voice] Your move.

Your move.

What is it?

C-4.

Explosive.

The whole place is wired.

Why?

I don't know.

[electronic voice] Your move.

Your move.

[beeping]

Your move.

Manual override achieved.

For pallet drop, enter 24.

For station uplink, enter 32.

For mainland communication, enter 38.

[computer beeping]

The satellite dish is inoperable.

Communications are down.

For sonar access, enter 56.

[computer beeping]

Sonar is inoperable.

Has there been an incursion of the station by the Hostiles?

If so, enter 77.

Keep your voice low and your hands in front of you.

Argh.

Stop right there.

Put the gun on the ground, now.

[gun clatters]

What are you doing?

It's her.

[grunts]

She was there. She was at the dock.

She was there when we were kidnapped.

She knows where Jack is.

Are there any more of you here?

Let's take her upstairs. Come on.

John, we're coming up!

John!

Out here.

Move.

This is simple.

Send her over to me and I will release him.

Then we all go our separate ways.

Don't listen to him.

If he was going to kill me, I'd be dead already.

Shut your mouth.

-Listen to me. -Sayid, do not let her go.

-I will execute you, right here. -He's not gonna do it.

-Be quiet. -I'm the only thing keeping him alive.

-I swear to you. -Mikhail!

-Calm down, everyone! -Mikhail!

[speaking in foreign language]

-Sayid. -I'll handle this, John.

John.

[speaking in foreign language]

[speaking in foreign language]

[speaking in foreign language]

Don't let her talk to him!

[speaking in foreign language]

Mikhail!

[speaking in foreign language]

-Stop! -Just do it, Mikhail!

[speaking in foreign language]

John!

Finish it!

Kill me.

Come on.

Sorry I beat you so bad, dude.

Sorry you hustled me, you mean.

My mom had a table in her basement,

and I played a lot at the institut… This place I hung out for a while.

-I got kind of good. -Hooray for you.

Doesn't look like that last slam caused any

long-term damage to your forehead.

And you got three points, which is better than zero.

Something you want?

I came to give you back some of your stuff.

'Cause I know you're the kind of guy that needs stuff.

You a shrink now?

She'll be okay, dude.

Kate.

I know you're worried about her, but she's with Locke and Sayid.

She's gonna be fine.

Yeah, thanks for the pep talk--

Uh-uh, dude.

It's Hurley. Or Hugo, if you want.

Get bent, Hugo.

You ready to go, Locke?

[Locke] I'll be there in a minute.

Has there been an incursion on this station by the Hostiles?

If so, enter 77.

Danielle! Danielle!

Tell me something,

were you ever a member of the Dharma Initiative?

Or was everything you said a lie?

Of course I'm wasting my breath.

I was never a member, but everything else I told you was true.

I moved into the station after the purge.

The purge, in which a group of scientists attacked your people.

Believe what you want, but that is what happened.

Your friends, did he kill them?

No. They're collecting whatever may be useful from the farmhouse.

And now we have our ticket to where the Others live,

where we'll find your daughter and Jack,

and finally, perhaps, a way home.

There is nothing you could do to me that would make me lead you there.

I didn't say you were our ticket, did I?

This is a map showing electrical and data cabling

running from the Flame, here,

to a place called the Barracks, here.

It's comprised of houses, and dormitories with water and power,

large enough to accommodate an entire community.

Sounds like a place well worth visiting, don't you think?

There will come a time when your guard is down,

and when it is,

I will not hesitate a moment before killing you.

-You should know this before you-- -He's making an excellent point.

You have a map. Why keep him alive?

[door opens]

[door closes]

After my husband and I first arrived to Paris,

I was afraid to ever leave our apartment.

So I would stare out the window into the alley,

and I would see this cat looking for scraps.

One day, some children came into the alley

and trapped it in a box.

I watched them light firecrackers

and drop them in the box.

I could hear him howl from three storeys above.

So finally, I had a reason to leave my apartment.

I rescued this cat, and I brought him home.

He sits with me when I read.

He sleeps with me,

and he purrs.

But every once in a while,

he will bite me or scratch me.

He does this

because sometimes

he forgets that he is safe now.

So I forgive him when he bites me,

because I know what it is like to never feel safe.

And that is because of you.

So today,

I ask only one thing of you.

I ask you now

that you show me the respect

of acknowledging what you did to me,

that it was you who questioned me,

that tortured me,

and that you remember me.

I remember you.

I remember your face.

Your face has haunted me ever since I left Iraq.

[both sobs]

I am sorry.

I am so sorry for what I did to you.

[voice breaking] I am so sorry.

I forgive you.

When my husband returns,

I will tell him I made terrible mistake,

that it was not you,

and he will release you.

Why?

Why are you letting me go?

We are all capable of doing what those children did to this cat.

But I will not do that.

I will not be that.

[Danielle] We should kill him, Sayid.

He already told us that he would kill us.

No.

He's my prisoner. I will decide his fate.

I can see you didn't find anything worth taking.

Actually, I just played that silly chess game again.

And now I realize why you didn't want me to beat it.

Meaning what?

What have you done, John?

That place was our one hope

of communication with the outside world!

The computer said if there was an incursion by the Hostiles,

I should enter 77.

So I entered 77.

We should go.

If anyone's around, this explosion's going to attract their attention.
