CLAIRE: Yeah, well, I can't go anywhere, all right? I've got the baby, and I'm so tired. I can't carry him. Now he's wet. And there's sand everywhere. I don't have any more nappies.

CHARLIE: Look, why don't you let me help?

CLAIRE: No! Look, nobody ever taught me how to do this.

CHARLIE: Claire, it's gonna be okay.

CLAIRE: Why do people keep telling me that? Are they the ones with a baby?

DANIELLE ROUSSEAU: Are you on the same island as I am?

HURLEY: Well, I guess that explains it.

HURLEY: What?

LESLIE ARZT: I know clique when I see it. I teach high school, pally. You know, you people think you're the only ones on this island doing anything of value. I got news for you. There were forty other survivors of this plane crash. And we are all people, too.

HURLEY: Oh-kay.

SAWYER: Don't know. But you could build yourself one hell of a beach resort right over there.

MICHAEL: Yeah, you build your resort. I'm happy to say goodbye to this place forever.

LOCKE: Two should take care of the hinge. Three to be safe.

JACK: Safe?

SAWYER: Sure are.

WALT: They're private.

SAWYER: Yep. I, for one, never knew how much Tracy missed her hubby and two kids back in Fresno. Yet she's sleeping next to good ol' Scott to keep her warm at night.

WALT: That's Steve. Scott's dead.

SAWYER: Whatever. It's a long ride, kazoo. We gotta keep ourselves entertained. Who the hell is Hugo, and how's he got $160 million to leave his mom?

WALT: How would you like it if I read yours?

SAWYER: You can't read mine 'cause I didn't write one.

WALT: Why not?

SAWYER: 'Cause the only letter I ever wrote was to the man I'm gonna kill.

WALT: Why are you gonna kill him?

SAWYER: 'Cause I need to.

WALT: Why?

SAWYER: Because.

SHANNON: What?

SUN: Your brother.

SHANNON: Yeah. Thanks.

SUN: Do you think all this ... all we've been through ... do you think we're being punished?

SHANNON: Punished for what?

SUN: Things we did before. The secrets we kept. The lies we told.

SHANNON: Who do you think is punishing us?

SUN: Fate.

CLAIRE: No one's punishing us. There's no such thing as fate.

LOCKE: What do you think's inside it?

HURLEY: Stacks of TV dinners from the '50s or something. And TVs ... with cable, some cellphones, clean socks, soap, and Twinkies. You know, for dessert after the TV dinners. Twinkies keep for like eight thousand years, man.

LOCKE: I like Twinkies, too.

HURLEY: Come on, really, what do you think's inside?

LOCKE: Hope. I think hope is inside.

LOCKE: I believe that I was tested.

JACK: Tested.

LOCKE: Yeah. Tested. I think that's why you and I don't see eye to eye sometimes, Jack. Because you're a man of science.

JACK: Yeah. And what does that make you?

LOCKE: Me? Well, I'm a man of faith. Do you really think all this is an accident? That we, a group of strangers, survived, many of us with just superficial injuries? You think we crashed on this place by coincidence? Especially this place? We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason -- all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason.

JACK: Brought here. And who brought us here, John?

LOCKE: The island. The island brought us here. This is no ordinary place. You've seen that. I know you have. The island chose you, too, Jack. It's destiny.

JACK: Did you talk with Boone about destiny, John?

LOCKE: Boone was a sacrifice that the island demanded. What happened to him at that plane was a part of a chain of events that led us here. That led us down a path. That led you and me to this day, to right now.

JACK: Where's that path end, John?

LOCKE: The path ends at the hatch. The hatch, Jack. All of it happened so that we could open the hatch.

JACK: No, no, we're opening the hatch so that we can survive.

LOCKE: Survival is all relative, Jack.

JACK: I don't believe in destiny.

LOCKE: Yes, you do. You just don't know it yet.

MICHAEL: Yeah? Why you say that?

SAWYER: I've seen the way he talks to you. The way he runs around, does whatever the hell he wants. I'd have shown him the back of my hand a long time ago.

MICHAEL: You would, huh?

SAWYER: Hell of a lot cheaper than a shrink.

MICHAEL: Is that what your father did to you? Show you the back of his hand?

SAWYER: My daddy never got a chance to beat me. He shot himself when I was eight.

MICHAEL: That why you want to die, man?

SAWYER: What?

MICHAEL: Since the day you told me you wanted on this raft, I couldn't figure it out. Why does a guy who only cares about himself want to risk his life to save everyone else? Yeah ... way I see it, there's only two choices. You're either a hero, or you want to die.

SAWYER: Well ... I ain't no hero, Mike.

JACK: What was what about?

KATE: Putting the dynamite in your pack?

JACK: I made a judgment call.

KATE: We drew straws.

JACK: Sorry, but I'm not gonna let drawing straws make decisions like that for us, Kate.

KATE: You had no right to make that --

JACK: Everybody wants me to be a leader until I make a decision that they don't like. You want to keep second-guessing me, Kate? That's your call. There's something that you need to know. If we survive this, we survive tonight ... we're gonna have a Locke problem.
