[Jacob sits in a darkened room. He weaves something on a wooden wheel. He then heads outside and into the ocean to a fishing net and places the contents (a red herring) on a rock where he guts it and cooks it. He places it on a leaf to eat and sits back to watch as a wooden ship (presumably The Black Rock) approaches the island. The Man in Black approaches Jacob and sits in the sand next to him]
The Man in Black: Morning.
Jacob: Morning.
The Man in Black: Mind if I join you?
Jacob: Please. You want some fish?
The Man in Black: No thank you, I just ate.
Jacob: I take it you're here because of the ship.
The Man in Black: I am. How did they find the island?
Jacob: You'll have to ask them when they get here.
The Man in Black: I don't have to ask: you brought them here. Still trying to prove me wrong, aren't you?
Jacob: You are wrong.
The Man in Black: Am I? They come. They fight. They destroy. They corrupt. It always ends the same.
Jacob: It only ends once. Everything that comes before is just progress.
[Pause]
The Man in Black: Do you have any idea how badly I want to kill you?
Jacob: Yes.
The Man in Black: One of these days, sooner or later, I'm going to find a loophole, my friend.

The Man in Black: In a manner of speaking. Do what I asked you to, Benjamin.
Jacob: Benjamin, whatever he's told you, I want you to understand one thing: you have a choice.
Ben: What choice?
Jacob: You can do what he asks, or you can go, leave us to discuss our... issues.
Ben: Oh... so now, after all this time... you've decided to stop ignoring me. Thirty-five years I lived on this island, and all I ever heard was your name, over and over. Richard would bring me your instructions, all those slips of paper, all those lists... and I never questioned anything. I did as I was told. But when I dared to ask to see you myself, I was told, "You have to wait. You have to be patient." But when he asks to see you, he gets marched up here as if he was Moses. So why him? Hmm?

What the last thought that ran through his head was? "I don't understand." Isn't that just the saddest thing you've ever heard? But it's fitting in a way because when John first came to the island, he was a very sad man. A victim shouting at the world for being told what he couldn't do, even though they were right. He was weak and pathetic, and irreparably broken, but despite all of that, there was something admirable about him. He was the only one of them who didn't want to leave.

[Sun, Ilana, Ben, and Frank have put John Locke's body in a grave on the beach]
Ilana: Does anyone want to say something? Did anyone know him?[No one steps up]
Ben: Okay, I knew him. John Locke was...a believer. He was a great man. A much better man than I ever was...And I'm very sorry I murdered him.
'[Everyone is shocked to hear this. Ben and Frank start filling the grave]
Frank: [Under his breath] Weirdest damn funeral I've ever been to...

The Man in Black: You seem to be taking this extremely well.
Sawyer: Taking what extremely well?
The Man in Black: The fact that I'm here.
Sawyer: I don't give a damn if you're dead. Or time travelin' or... ghost of Christmas past. All I care about is this whiskey. So bottoms up. Get the hell out of my house.

Locke: My walkabout. An adventure in the outback. Man against nature. But they wouldn't let me go. And I sat there yelling at them. Shouting at them that they couldn't tell me what I can't do. But they were right. I'm sick of imagining of what my life could be out of this chair, Helen. What it would be like to walk down the aisle with you because its not gonna happen. So if you need me to see more doctors, have more consults, if you need me to get out of this chair, I don't blame you. But I don't want you to spend your life waiting for a miracle because there is no such thing.

Richard: Where is he?
Sawyer: Where the hell did you come from?
Richard: Where is he?!
Sawyer: He ran off.
Richard: Okay, come on, we've gotta go!
Sawyer: Go where?
Richard: To the Temple, let's go, now!
Sawyer: Thanks but I've been to the Temple already. I'm sticking with Locke.
Richard: No, the man you are with is not John Locke.
Sawyer: I know.
Richard: Than why are you with him?
Sawyer: 'Cause he's got answers. He knows why I'm on the Island. Unless you wanna tell me why I'm here, Richard!
Richard: Don't be naive. He's not gonna tell you anything, he's gonna kill you.
Sawyer: If he wanted to kill me he could've done it a dozen times by now.
Richard: You don't understand. He doesn't just want you dead, he wants everyone dead. Everyone you care about, all of them. And he won't stop--[Flees as he hears The Man in Black return]

Sawyer: Do you read?
The Man in Black: Doesn't everybody?
Sawyer: You ever read Of Mice and Men. Steinbeck, it's my favorite.
The Man in Black: No, a little after my time.
Sawyer: It's about these two guys, George and Lenny. Lenny's kinda slow... causin' George problems... so George walks him into the woods and tells him to look out yonder and picture the pretty little house they're gonna live in some day. Then he shoots Lenny in the back of the head.
The Man in Black: That doesn't sound like a very happy ending.
Sawyer: [Sawyer puts a gun to the back of MIB's head] It ain't.
The Man in Black: Something on your mind, James?
Sawyer: I'm wondering what would happen if I was to put a bullet in your head?
The Man in Black: Let's find out?
Sawyer: [Sawyer hesitates and lowers the gun] What are you?
The Man in Black: What I am is trapped. And I've been trapped for so long that I don't even remember what it feels like to be free. Maybe you can understand that. But before I was trapped, I was a man, James. Just like you.
Sawyer: I'm havin' a hard time believin' that...
The Man in Black: You can believe whatever you want, that's the truth. I know what it's like to feel joy... to feel pain, anger, fear... to experience betrayal. I know what it's like to lose someone you love. So if you wanna shoot me, shoot me. But you're so close, James. It would be such a shame to turn back now.

The Man in Black: You're a candidate.
Sawyer: And what does that mean?
The Man in Black: It means you have three choices. You can do nothing and see how it all plays out. [Marks off John Locke's name on the wall] And maybe your name will get marked off. Or you can step up and replace Jacob and be the protector of the Island.
Sawyer: Protect it from what?
The Man in Black: From nothing, James. That's the real joke; there is nothing to protect it from. It's just a damn island! And it will be perfectly fine without you or me or anyone else whose lives Jacob wasted.
Sawyer: You said there were three choices.
The Man in Black: The third choice is we just go. We just get the hell off this Island. Never look back. So tell me, James. Are you ready to go home.
Sawyer: ...Hell yes.

Jack: I'm not going anywhere, Hurley.
Hurley: Yeah, I told him you'd say that. That's why he told me to tell you...You have what it takes, Jack.
Jack: [Jack stands, shocked] What did you say?
Hurley: I said "you have what it takes." He said you'd know what it means.
Jack: And Jacob he's at this Lighthouse?
Hurley: Yeah, I think?
Jack: Ok. Well, let's go see Jacob.
Hurley: Yeah, I told him you'd say that. That's why he told me to tell you...You have what it takes, Jack.

Jacob: Jack is here because he has to do something. He can't be told what that is, he's got to find it himself. Sometimes you can just hop in the back of someone's cab and tell them what they are supposed to do. Other times you have to let them look at the ocean for a while.
