Original timeline ... Hurley, Sun, Jack, and Frank have just arrived at the Man in Black's camp.]
LOCKE: Hello, Jack. I was hoping you'd come.
[Hurley hands Locke his torch.]
LOCKE: I think we have some catching up to do.
[Jack walks up to Hurley.]
JACK: Hurley. This was your idea. toi alright with me talking with him alone?
HURLEY: [Handing Jack a gun.] It's all you, dude.
JACK: [To Locke] Alright, let's catch up.
[Jack and Locke walk away. They arrive at a clearing. Locke sits down on a log. Jack remains standing, facing Locke.]
JACK: Look just like him.
LOCKE: Does it bother you?
JACK: No, what bothers me is I don't have any idea what the hell toi are.
LOCKE: Sure toi do.
[Jack kneels.]
JACK: Why John Locke?
LOCKE: Because he was stupid enough to believe that he'd been brought here for a reason. Because he pursued that belief until it got him killed. And because toi were kind enough to bring his body back here in a nice wooden box.
JACK: He had to be dead before toi could look like him.
LOCKE: That's right.
[Jack nods.]
JACK: Who else have toi looked like?
LOCKE: Jack, what do toi really want to ask me?
JACK: The third jour we were here I saw... I chased my father through the jungle... my, my dead father. Was that you?
LOCKE: Yes, that was me.
JACK: Why?
LOCKE: toi needed to find water. This may be hard for toi to believe, Jack, but all I've ever been interested in is helping you.
JACK: To help me? To do what?
LOCKE: Leave. But because Jacob chose you, toi were trapped on this Island, before toi even got here. Now Jacob's dead. We don't have to be trapped anymore. We can get on an airplane and fly away anytime we want to.
JACK: If we can just fly away whenever we want, why are toi still here?
LOCKE: Because it has to be all of us.
[Jack looks momentarily emotional.]
LOCKE: What?
JACK: John Locke was the only one of us that ever believed in this place. He did everything he could to keep us from leaving this island.
LOCKE: John Locke was not a believer, Jack. He was a sucker.

KATE: I already told you, I’m not a murderer.
SAWYER: Yeah, well, I’m still a cop.
KATE: So, why didn’t toi arrest me?
SAWYER: I did arrest you.
KATE: No, in L.A.X., the elevator, toi saw I was wearing handcuffs.
SAWYER: I didn’t see any handcuffs. All I saw was a pretty lady who needed the door held open for her.
KATE: toi know what I think? I think toi let me go because toi went to Australia, and toi didn’t want anyone to know toi were there. Should I tell that to the feds when they get here?

DESMOND: Oh, no. I’m sorry. Are you…
CLAIRE: Oh, no. It’s all good now, so…Oh, par the way, uh, toi were right. It’s a boy.
DESMOND: I have a nose for these things. Look, um…excuse me if this sounds a bit personal, but I couldn’t help noticing you’re going to an adoption agency….alone.
CLAIRE: Uh…yeah. You’re right. It is personal.
DESMOND: No, I just meant that toi should have some--some legal representation.
CLAIRE: What, are toi a lawyer?
DESMOND: No, no. But, uh, it just so happens that I’m on my to see one. toi know, adoption contracts are complicated; and, toi should be careful because toi could find yourself in a situation that’s irreversible.
CLAIRE: Yeah, I-I don’t have money for a lawyer. [Desmond follows Claire onto an elevator, she presses 15th floor button.] What floor?
DESMOND: Um…I’m--I’m going to 15 as well. Look, this, um, this attorney I’m seeing--she’s excellent. Uh, toi know, plus, she owes me a favor. So…why don’t toi just come and meet her? toi know, I think she could really help you.

Well, if that’s what they want, that’s what they’ll get. Gather your things, we’re going to the other island and we’re getting on that plane. James, I need your help with something. [They walk away as Jack watches them.] There’s a bateau moored just a few hours down the rive from here. I want toi to get it and meet the rest of us on the other side of these bluffs. [Locke shows James a map] We’ll all sail over to the other island together.

JACK: What kind of deal?
SAWYER: Just listen. First chance toi get, double back, hoof it to this spot. [points to map] There’s an old dock. Grab Hugo, Sun and Lapidus. Kate and I will meet toi there.
JACK: What about Sayid and Claire?
SAWYER: Sayid’s a zombie and Claire’s nuts. She gave up her ticket when she tried to kill Kate. And I ain’t gonna let that happen again. That’s Hugo, Sun and the pilot. Only them. Understand?
JACK: But, how am I supposed to get us away from--from Locke?
SAWYER: toi figure it out. [Sawyer hands map to Jack and goes to Kate.] Ready to roll?
KATE: What was that all about?
SAWYER: Guy talk. [Kate looks at Jack as she leaves with Sawyer.]
[Locke and Sayid, away from camp]
LOCKE: I need toi to go out to where I’ve got Desmond.

DESMOND: And what did toi lose?
SAYID: The woman I loved.
DESMOND: And where is she now?
SAYID: Dead.
DESMOND: And what makes toi think Locke can bring her back?
SAYID: I died…and he brought me back.
