[Shot of Young Sawyer's eye opening. Sound of pounding on a door.]
Sawyer's Mom
Wake up. He's here. C'mon. Got to get you up. He'll think you're
still with your grandparents, okay? Get under the bed. Let's go. Listen
to mommy, this is really important. Get under the bed, don't make a
sound; don't come out, no matter what happens. Don't come out, okay?
Young Sawyer
Okay.
Sawyer's Mom
I love you.
Young Sawyer
I love you too, mommy.
Sawyer's Mom
Let's go. Down you go.
Father
Open this door.
Sawyer's Mom
Stop it. Please stop it. Go away. Stop it. What the hell is wrong
with you? I'm calling the police, get out of here. What are you doing?
What the hell are you doing with a gun, get out of here.
[Sound of gunshot and her body falling to the floor. Shot of Sawyer
under the bed. His POV watching his father's boots walk into the room,
sit on the bed, and sound of him shooting himself.
Shot of Sawyer waking up on the island. He hears boar sounds in his
tent. Hits it with a metal pipe. Goes running after it. Then he hears
the whispers: It'll come back around.]

[Shot of Sawyer cleaning up the mess the boar made in his tent area.]
Sayid
Boar took your tarp?
Sawyer
It was dark, but yeah, I'm pretty sure it was a boar.
Sayid
I thought the boar had vacated this area?
Sawyer
Well, genius, I think we got some bad info.
Sayid
What was he doing inside your tent?
Sawyer
It was staring at me. Then it came at me, so I hit it, and it ran off into the jungle.
Sayid
With you tarp? Perhaps he wanted to go camping?
Sawyer
You enjoying yourself?
Sayid
Yes.
Sawyer
Well, laugh it up, Mohammad. But I come back and find my stuff's
gone, I'm coming after you. [Sayid walks away.] Sayid, what did you
hear? After you ran into the French woman you said you heard something
in the jungle.
Sayid
I was injured and I was exhausted, my mind was playing tricks.
Sawyer
What did you hear?
Sayid
I thought I heard whispering.
Sawyer
What was it saying?
Sayid
Why? Did you hear something?
Sawyer
Forget it. I didn't hear anything.
Flashback.
[Shot of Sawyer going into a hotel room with a woman.]
Woman
What are you so afraid of?
Sawyer
I'm not the one trembling, sweetness.
[Sawyer carries the laughing woman to the bed.]
Hibbs [turning on the light]
Okay, this is really awkward, but if I don't say something now things are liable to get downright embarrassing.
Sawyer
Hibbs.
Hibbs
Hello, Sawyer. Ma'am, I must apologize. I figured my good friend
Sawyer here would be alone. I just need a few minutes.
Sawyer
Listen, baby. . .
Woman
Baby, who is this?
Sawyer
Listen, go down to the bar, get a drink. . .
Woman
No, I don't want to leave you here.
Sawyer
As soon as I get rid of him, then I'll come get you and I'll explain everything.
Woman
But, I. . .
Sawyer
Listen, just trust me on this. I will find you, I promise. I promise.
Hibbs
I've got to hand it to you, Sawbucks. How you find women that beautiful to work your grift. . .
[Sawyer grabs Hibbs and pins him against a wall.]
Sawyer
Now, if I'm not mistaken, I'm fairly certain I said I'd kill you if I ever saw you again.
Hibbs
That's why I'm here, to make things right. Besides, we both know
you ain't the killing type. [He pulls an envelope out his pocket and
throws it on a table.] Here. I figure that makes us even for the Tampa
job.
Sawyer
What could possibly make us even for the Tampa job?
Hibbs
How about the known whereabouts of the man that ruined your life?
I'm going to make myself a drink. You want one? You remember old man
Parks, right? Ran camper(?) for us on that gig in Atlanta.
Sawyer
Yeah, what about him?
Hibbs
He's been working the wire at an off track parlor down in Sydney.
Last week one of his regulars gets a little too sauced, starts running
his mouth off about his glory days as a grifter. That guy, Frank
Duckett. Real hard luck case - gambling addict, alcoholic, runs a
shrimp truck. Back in the day this guy Duckett was quite the hustler.
He ran the romance angle, hooked the wife and took the husband for all
the money. He was pretty good at it, too, from what I hear. Till,
sadly, one of his marks, in despair, took a gun, shot up his wife and
blew his own head off. All in front of their little boy. I paid Tony to
pull his jacket. Turns out Frank Duckett used to be named Frank Sawyer.
A name I believe you appropriated for yourself.
Sawyer [looking at a photo]
This is him?
Hibbs
That's him.
[Shot of guns in the case, Kate giving Jack her gun.]
Kate
Thanks for the loaner.
Jack
Always a pleasure.
Kate
So, was anyone curious where they came from?
Jack
The others knew there was a Marshal on the plane. I guess they
just assumed he was traveling alone, protecting them from terrorists.
Sounds like a good theory to me.
Kate
Did you get all the guns back?
Jack
All except one.
Kate
Who?
Jack
Let me give you 3 guesses.
Kate
Sawyer. I can get it back.
Jack
Really? How are you going to do that?
Kate
Speak his language.
Jack
You've done this before, Kate. And if I remember it right, you
made out with him, and he never even had what you said you could get.
Kate
Well, I only made out with him because torturing him didn't work.
Jack
Let him keep the gun. It's not worth it.
Kate
What, are you worried he's going to shoot me if I ask?
Jack
I just don't want you to owe him anything.
[Shot of Charlie making a shovel. Claire comes up.]
Claire
Hey.
Charlie
Hi. How are you feeling?
Claire
Very pregnant. I had some dreams last night. Actually, more like memories. You were in them.
Charlie
Sorry.
Claire
Thought I'd see if you wanted to go for a walk.
Charlie
Sorry. I have to do something.
Claire
Sure.
Charlie
See you later, okay?
[Shot of Sawyer in the jungle. He sees his tarp, grabs it, and
starts walking back when he hears the whispers again: It'll come back
around. Then he hears the boar running toward him. The boar knocks
Sawyer over.]
Sawyer [in a mud puddle]
Son of a bitch.
Kate
A boar? Did all this?
Sawyer
Last night: wrecked my tent. This morning when I went to get my
tent back it attacks me from behind and runs off into the jungle like a
coward.
Kate
A boar wouldn't just attack you for no reason.
Sawyer
Thank you, boar expert. This one did. It's harassing me. [Sawyer gets the gun.]
Kate
What are doing?
Sawyer
Getting even.
Kate
Would you listen to yourself? It's a boar. Just go tell Locke and he'll kill it.
Sawyer
Nope. This is my fight.
Kate
Do you know anything about hunting boar? You are going to get yourself lost, or worse.
Sawyer
Since when do you care?
Kate
I don't.
Sawyer
Good. Then if you'll excuse me, I've got some revenge to tend to.
Flashback.
[Sawyer walking into a workshop type place on a dock.]
Laurence
You must be Hibbs' mate. [Picks up a gun to give Sawyer.] I did a
few jobs with Hibbs back in the states. Nice enough fella.
Sawyer
He's a son of a bitch.
Laurence
Right, indeed he is. A few disclaimers: Australia doesn't allow
it's citizens to carry handguns. You get nicked with this. . .
Sawyer
I'm not going to rat you out.
Laurence
Secondly, you know, I've been doing this for awhile and a man who
buys a compact 357 with hollow point loads. . . he's not looking to
scare or steal. He's looking to kill. But when it comes down to it if
he finds he doesn't have what it takes to do the job. . .
Sawyer
Your sales pitch needs some work.
Laurence
What I'm saying is, you look a man in eye and you point a gun at
him, you find who you really are, mate. And should you find you're not
a killer, there's no refund.
Sawyer
Won't be a problem.

[Shot of the ocean, pan over to Hurley and Charlie.]
Charlie
Hurley, look, I appreciate the help. You don't have to. I killed Ethan, I can bury him.
Hurley
Yeah, 'til he rises from the dead. Dude, I know how this works.
This is going to end with you and me running through the jungle
screaming crying. He catches me first because I'm heavy and I get
cramps.
[Charlie just starts digging without saying anything.]
Hurley
You alright?
[Shot of Hurley walking up the beach.]
Hurley
Sayid, can ask you a question?
Sayid
Of course.
Hurley
Did you ever get that Gulf War syndrome?
Sayid
That was the other side.
Hurley
Oh, right. Then what's the one when you're all, like, shell-shocked?
Sayid
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Hurley
Yeah, that's it. You ever have that?
Sayid
Why do you ask?
Hurley
Because I'm worried about Charlie.
Sayid
What's wrong with Charlie?
Hurley
I mean, he killed a guy. He shot him in the chest 4 times. Maybe you should talk to him.
[Shot of Sawyer tracking the boar.]
Kate [from behind him]
It's a foot print. Based on the weight and the distance between
strides, I'd say you've been following Boone for about an hour.
Sawyer
Look. . .
Kate
It could be Charlie, I suppose.
Sawyer
I'm tickled you're taking such an interest in my affairs. I really
am. So don't take it personal when I tell you. . .
Kate
I want carte blanche.
Sawyer
What?
Kate
It's simple. You can't track that boar without my help. Over the
last few hours you have managed to follow the tracks of humans, birds,
a rock slide, yourself, basically everything except boar. You have no
idea what you're doing.
Sawyer
Carte blanche.
Kate
It means blank check.
Sawyer
I know what it means.
Kate
Anytime I want something from your stash. . . medicine, soap,
whatever, I get it. No questions asked. Take it or leave it.
Sawyer
Alright, you got a deal.
[Shot of Sawyer and Kate at night at a fire. Sawyer takes out a little bottle of booze and starts drinking it.]
Kate
Where'd you get that?
Sawyer
Plane.
Kate
Jack was looking for the liquor cart.
Sawyer
It's a good thing I found it instead, then, huh?
Kate
Got any more of those?
Sawyer
I've got a lot more of everything, but you ain't got carte blanche yet.
Kate
Is that a no?
Sawyer
Alright, sassafras, but if you want to drink, you've got to play.
Kate
Play what?
Sawyer
I never.
Kate
What?
Sawyer
I never.
Kate
How am I supposed to know what that means?
Sawyer
Call it a way to get to know each other better. For example, I know you've never been to college.
Kate
How do you know that?
Sawyer
If you had, you'd have heard of I never. It's simple, you say I
never and then you finish the sentence. If it's something you did you
drink, if it's something you never did, you don't drink.
Kate
That makes absolutely no sense.
Sawyer
Learn by example. I never kissed a man. Now you drink 'cause you've kissed man. Your turn.
Kate
I never implied that I've been to college when I never have.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Sawyer
I never been to Disneyland.
[Kate doesn't drink.]
Sawyer
Ah, that's just sad.
Kate
I never wore pink.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Kate
I knew it.
Sawyer
The '80's. I never voted democrat.
[Kate doesn't drink.]
Kate
I never voted.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Sawyer
I've never been in love.
Kate
You've never been in love?
Sawyer
I ain't drinking, am I?
[Kate drinks.]
Kate
I've never had a one night stand.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Kate
Bottoms up, sailor.
Sawyer
I've gotta drink for each one.
Kate
Your turn.
Sawyer
I've never been married.
[Kate drinks a small sip.]
Kate
It didn't last very long. I never blamed a boar for all my problems.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Sawyer
I never cared about having carte blanche because I just wanted to
spend some time with the only other person on this island that just
don't belong.
[Kate drinks.]
Kate
I never carried a letter around for 20 years because I couldn't get over my baggage.
[Sawyer drinks.]
Sawyer
I never killed a man.
[Kate drinks. Sawyer drinks.]
Sawyer
Well, looks like we got something in common, after all.

Kate
You okay? You were shaking?
Sawyer
Thought I. . . was just having a. . .
[They look around and see their camp is destroyed.]
Sawyer
I can't believe this.
Kate
There are hoof marks everywhere.
Sawyer
It ate all our stuff?
Kate
Nope. It ate your stuff. Mine's fine.
Sawyer
Oh, that hog's gonna suffer. I swear to god.
[They hear something rustling in the bushes, and Sawyer grabs his gun and points it. Locke comes into the clearing.]
Locke
Mornin'. What happened to your campsite?
Kate
So, what are you doing all the way out here, John?
Locke
Looking for salvage from the crash.
Kate
Find anything useful?
Locke
Occasional scrap of metal, a true bag of coffee. I picked up your path about a mile back, I thought I'd say howdy.
Sawyer [throwing down a shirt]
Awww, son of a. . . ohhh, peed on my shirt. Took my shirt out of
the bag and peed on it. And you say this ain't personal.
Kate
He thinks the boar we're after has a vendetta against him.
Locke
Uh-huh.
Sawyer
That's 3 times it's attacked me.
Kate
Maybe it's got your scent, doesn't like your cologne?
Sawyer
I don't wear cologne.
Kate
Yes, you do.
Sawyer
Yeah, well. The thing's got it in for me.
Kate
It's a boar, Sawyer.
Locke [making coffee]
My sister, Jeanie, died when I was a boy. Fell off the monkey bars
and broke her neck. And my mother, well, my foster mother she blamed
herself, of course. Thought she wasn't watching close enough. So, she
stopped eating, stopped sleeping. The neighbors started talking, afraid
she might do something to herself, I guess. [Sipping coffee] Oh, that's
good. Anyway, about 6 months after Jeanie's funeral this golden
retriever comes padding up our driveway, walks right into our house,
sits down on the floor, and looks right at my mother, there on the
couch. And my mother looks back at the dog. After about a minute of
this, of them both staring at each other like that, my mother burst
into tears. Beautiful dog, no tags, no collar, healthy, and sweet. The
dog slept in Jeanie's old room, on Jeanie's old bed and stayed with us
until my mother passed 5 years later. Then, disappeared back to
wherever it was she came from in the first place.
Kate
So, you're saying the dog was your sister?
Locke
Well, that would be silly. But my mother thought it was, thought
that Jeanie had come back to tell her the accident wasn't her fault,
let her off the hook.
Flashback.
[Shot of Sawyer with gun at the shrimp stand.]
Duckett [to the customer at the window]
Good to go. [To Sawyer] Only two choices, shrimp in mild sauce, shrimp in hot sauce. Pal?
Sawyer
I'll go with the hot.
Duckett
Hot it is. [Sawyer cocks the gun.] Fellow American, huh? Good for you. Missed the lunch rush. Whereabouts you from?
Sawyer
Tennessee.
Duckett
Love the south. Miss those southern women. In Australia long?
Sawyer
Not really.
Duckett
For what it's worth, we've got a special at the truck here. Half price for all Americans. Name's Frank, by the way.
Sawyer
James.
Duckett
Good to meet you, James. [Shot of Duckett packing up the food.] One shrimp and hot sauce.
[He turns to hand Sawyer the shrimp, but Sawyer's gone. Sound of car driving away.]
[Shot of Sawyer drinking at a bar.]
Sawyer [downs a shot]
Again.
Bartender
Are you sure about that, mate?
Sawyer
Again.
Shephard
You tell 'em cowboy. These Illegitimate Mandangoes think Americans
can't hold their liquor. I, uh, I hate to hold my hand out, but I seem
to have misplaced my wallet.
Sawyer
Set him up.
Shephard
I drink to you. What's your name, cowboy.
Sawyer
Sawyer.
Shephard
To Sawyer, may he find whatever he's looking for in the bottom of a glass. So, Sawyer, what brings you to Sydney?
Sawyer
Business.
Shephard
You know why they call Australia down under, don't you? Because
it's as close as you can get to hell without being burned.
Sawyer [to bartender]
Why don't you leave the bottles. [to Shephard] What'd you handle, back in the States?
Shephard
I was a Chief of Surgery.
Sawyer
Was?
Shephard
Yeah, was.
Sawyer
But we're in hell, huh?
Shephard
Don't let the air conditioning fool you, son. You are here, too.
You are suffering. But, don't beat yourself up about it. It's fate.
Some people are just supposed to suffer. That's why the Red Sox will
never win the damn series. I have a son who's about your age. He's not
like me, he does what's in his heart. He's a good man, maybe a great
one. Right now, he thinks that I hate him. He thinks I feel betrayed by
him. But what I really feel is gratitude, and pride because of what he
did to me. What he did for me. It took more courage than I have.
There's a pay phone over there. I could pick it up and I could call my
son. I could tell him about all this. I could tell him that I love him.
One simple phone call and I could fix everything.
Sawyer
Why don't you?
Shephard
Because I am weak. This business that you have, will it ease your suffering.
Sawyer
Yeah?
Shephard
Then what are you doing here?
Sawyer
It ain't that simple.
Shephard
Of course it is. Unless you want to end up like me, of course it is.

Charlie
Yeah. I get it. You're here to check up on me.
Sayid
You killed a man.
Charlie
A man who killed one of us, who kidnapped Claire, who strung me up
and left me for dead. He deserved to die. I'd do it again in a minute.
Pardon me, if I'm fresh out of bad feeling.
Sayid
When I was in the army in Tikrit, in Iraq, the man who lived next
door was a policeman. One day his car was rigged with a bomb. It killed
his wife and 3 young children instead. They caught the man who did it.
I volunteered to be on the firing squad, and I did my duty without a
single ounce of remorse. Then, for no reason, I found myself waking up
at night, replaying what I did in my head.
Charlie
It looks like you're the one who needs checking up on.
Sayid
All I'm saying is that what happened with Ethan will be with you for the rest of your life.
Charlie
Any suggestions?
Sayid
You're not alone. Don't pretend to be.

Sawyer
I take comfort knowing that someday this all going to be a real

Kate
Know what that is?
Sawyer
A hole in the mud.
Kate
It's a wallow.
Sawyer
What the hell's a wallow?
Kate
A boar's wallow? It's a den where he sleeps. And these tree rubbings are from his tusks.
Sawyer
You mean he's around here?
Kate
Maybe.
[They hear a baby boar sound. Sawyer goes running toward it.]
Kate
Sawyer?
Sawyer
Gotcha, ha ha ha.
Kate
I thought it'd be bigger.
Sawyer
Funny. Now we know daddy's got to be around here. Here piggy, piggy, piggy.
Kate
Hey, Sawyer, put it down. That's not funny.
Sawyer
Here piggy, piggy, piggy.

Put it down. What is the matter with you Sawyer? You're going to hurt it.
Sawyer
We're right over here.
Kate
Not funny.

Oww.

You're sick.

Duckett

Duckett
You don't know what you're doing, do you?
Sawyer
You borrowed money from Hibbs?
Duckett
I was going to pay. It'll come back around.

Jack
Huh?
Sawyer
What'd you just say?
Jack
I said that's why the Red Sox will never win the series.
Sawyer
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Jack
Just something my father used to say. Went through life knowing
that people hated him. Instead of taking responsibility for it, he just
put it on fate. Said he was made that way.
Sawyer
Your daddy, he a doctor, too?
Jack
He was. He's dead. Why do you want to know about my father?

No reason.
