Lost: Across the Sea
May 19th 2010 01:42
How did Jacob and The Smoke Monster become Jacob and The Smoke Monster?
JACOB: What is it?
BOY IN BLACK: It's a game. You play it.
JACOB: How do you know how?
BOY IN BLACK: I just know.
~*~*~
MOTHER: Where's your brother?
JACOB: He's down at the beach... staring out at the ocean.
~*~*~
BOY IN BLACK: Jacob told you what I found...
MOTHER: Of course he did. Jacob doesn't know how to lie. He's not like you.
BOY IN BLACK: Why? What am I like?
MOTHER: You're... special.
BOY IN BLACK: Can I keep the game?
MOTHER: Of course you can. That's why I left it for you.
BOY IN BLACK: It came from you?
MOTHER: Of course it did. Where else would it come from?
BOY IN BLACK: From somewhere else. Across the sea...
MOTHER: There is nowhere else. The island is all there is.
~*~*~
BOY IN BLACK: What is this place?
MOTHER: This is the reason you're here.
~*~*~
BOY IN BLACK: What's down there?
MOTHER: Light. The warmest, brightest light you've ever seen or felt. And we must make sure that no one ever finds it.
BOY IN BLACK: It's beautiful...
MOTHER: Yes it is. And that's why they want it. Because a little bit of this very same light is inside of every man. But they always want more.
JACOB: Can they take it?
MOTHER: No. But they would try. And if they tried they could put it out. And if the light goes out here... it goes out everywhere. And so I've protected this place. But I can't protect it forever.
BOY IN BLACK: Then who will?
MOTHER: It will have to be one of you.
~*~*~
BOY IN BLACK: You can’t do that, Jacob.
JACOB: Why not?
BOY IN BLACK: Because it’s against the rules
JACOB: You made the rules.
BOY IN BLACK: I found it. One day, you can make up your own game and everyone else will have to follow your rules.
~*~*~
BOY IN BLACK: They’re our people, Jacob, and we’re gonna live with them.
~*~*~
JACOB: He said you killed our mother…Is that true?
MOTHER: Yes…If I had let her live, she would have taken you back to her people; and those people are bad, Jacob--very bad. I-I couldn’t’ let you become one of them. I needed you to stay good.
~*~*~
JACOB: I don’t know. They don’t seem so bad to me,
MAN IN BLACK: That’s easy for you to say. Looking down on us from above. Trust me, I’ve lived among them for 30 years. They’re greedy, manipulative, untrustworthy, and selfish.
JACOB: Then why are you with them?
MAN IN BLACK: They’re a means to an end.
JACOB: What end?
MAN IN BLACK: I’m leaving, Jacob…I found a way off the island.
JACOB: No, it’s impossible. There is no way off the island.
~*~*~
MAN IN BLACK: Jacob, everything dies.
~*~*~
JACOB: You want to find the light? You want to leave this place, brother? Then go!
~*~*~
LOCKE: Our very own Adam and Eve.
~*~*~
JACOB: Goodbye, brother. Goodbye.
