Lost: A Journey in Time Page #6

---

Faraday returned to the island in 1977.

- Dan.

- Hey, Miles.

Long time, no see.

Daniel Faraday is

an expert in physics.

Particularly in the field of quantum

physics, and he knows about time travel.

And he leaves the island and he

goes to Ann Arbor, Michigan,

joins the Dharma Initiative,

and he goes over all of his life's work.

Right on time.

Faraday is convinced that he actually

now has a significant mission to perform.

The Orchid station

was under construction

and becoming a dangerous endeavor

for the Dharma Initiative.

The same thing is gonna happen

at the site for the Swan station,

and the accident ...

is gonna be catastrophic.

What could possibly qualify you

to make that kind of prediction?

I'm from the future.

For most of the season,

Daniel Faraday basically said,

"If you try to change the past,

it's not gonna work out",

except now Faraday appears

to have changed his mind.

I finally realized ...

People.

We think, we reason,

we have free will.

We can change our destiny.

And he's determined that,

"Yes, you can change the future

if you do something

really significant".

And he says,

"The way that I can do that

is to prevent the hatch

from ever having been built".

The Dharma folks at the Swan

work site ... They're gonna ...

They're gonna

drill into the ground

and accidentally tap into

a massive pocket of energy.

In order to contain it, they're gonna have

to cement the entire area in like Chernobyl.

They're going to spend the next

by pressing a button ...

A button that your friend

Desmond will one day fail to push,

and that will cause your

plane to crash on this island.

All this is about Faraday pushing

the reset button in a huge way.

I think we can change that.

And that hatch will never be built,

and your plane will land

just like it's supposed to.

And just how exactly do you plan

on destroying this energy?

I'm gonna detonate

a hydrogen bomb.

- Hey, James.

- Welcome to the meeting, twitchy.

So he walked into Sawyer's house and

he addresses everybody and he says,

"I have a way to get us all

back to where we belong".

Does anyone know where

I can find the hostiles?

- Why do you need to know that, Daniel?

- Because one of them is my mother.

Your mother is an other?

You met her back in 1954.

They were calling her Ellie.

This character Eloise Hawking ...

She is Daniel Faraday's mother.

Where is Eloise?

But now in 1977, Faraday's

mother is now 20 years older

- and encounters Faraday again.

- She's not here right now.

The hydrogen bomb I told your

people to bury ... Where is it?

Just put the gun down.

- Faraday has the misfortune of dying.

- Right, yes. He gets shot by his mom.

- Who are you?

- I'm your son.

We have to go, Jack.

We have to go right now.

Jack and Kate are

captured by the Others.

And Eloise Hawking has, like,

a new motivation herself, right?

Because she's hoping that

"You can change the future"

because she would certainly very

much like not to have her son die.

How is this my handwriting

if I don't remember writing it?

Because you haven't

written it yet.

And Jack finally realizes,

"This is why I'm in 1977".

What you just did,

it was an accident,

and I think that there's a way

for you to take it all back.

"My destiny is to prevent myself from ever

having come to this island in the first place".

Your son came back here because he

had figured out a way to change things.

He doesn't have to be dead.

You don't have to have killed him.

- Does he know what he's talking about?

- He thinks he does.

All right, then ...

I'll take you to the bomb.

- You two know how to swim?

- Why don't we just go around it?

We have to swim under the

pond to get to the tunnel.

I'm not going.

I can't go any further with

you, Jack, not this time.

Kate ...

Jack makes her very

uneasy and uncomfortable

because he's really undergone an

incredible transformation as a character.

And if you're wrong,

then everyone on the island dies.

- Do you understand that?

- I'm not wrong, Kate. This is it.

- This is our destiny.

- Do you know who you sound like?

Because he was crazy, too, Jack.

You said so yourself.

I'm going back to find

the rest of our people,

because if I can't stop you,

then maybe they can.

Kate made her way back

to the compound,

where Sawyer and Juliet

were planning an escape.

You called it the minute

those yahoos got there.

I should've listened to you.

Fairly quickly,

everything unravels.

One of Sawyer's trusty security guys

finds this videotape with evidence

that Sawyer is not who he says he is,

and, of course, all the Dharma people

are shocked because Sawyer was

the very beloved head of security.

That's not good, right?

That woman ...

Where is she now?

They beat the crap out of him

trying to find out what he knows

and where young Ben is.

They got Sawyer and Juliet.

And there are 30 of them

and they all have guns.

We gotta do something. I mean,

Sawyer would never leave us behind.

Dr. Chang.

Your friend Faraday said

that you were from the future.

- Dude, that's ridiculous.

- What year were you born?

- Uh ... 1931.

- You're 46?

Who's the president

of the United States?

All right, dude,

we're from the future. Sorry.

Your friend, the physicist ...

He said there was going to be a massive

accident at the Swan. Now is that true?

He's been right

about everything so far.

We need to evacuate the island

of all nonessential personnel,

and you need to do it ...

What the hell is going on here?

Aren't you supposed to be

at the Swan right now, Chang?

We're supposed to break ground

in less than 20 hours.

If we start drilling,

there's a high probability

- of a cataclysmic accident.

- We are drilling and on schedule!

He's right. It ain't safe.

Put the women and children on the

sub and get 'em the hell out of here.

Sawyer makes a deal

with them and says,

"I will give you the information you want

as long as you put me on the submarine".

He's content, at this point, to just

sail off to the real world with Juliet.

Once we dock, wherever we dock,

we're free.

- I love you.

- I love you back.

Hold on!

Don't close the hatch!

- But then, unfortunately ...

- Kate gets tossed in the mix.

Oh, Kate.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Apparently, she's come back to try

to warn them about what Jack's up to,

but she's now captured

by the Dharma Initiative.

So now you've got those three

characters sailing away from the island,

and Jack back on the island,

on his way to a hydrogen bomb.

There are crazy things

happening on this island.

There is a sense

of destiny and purpose.

But all of that is secondary to the fact

that these people are here for a reason.

These characters are

intertwined in ways

that they don't even fully

realize and understand yet.

The relationships they form,

the friendships ...

Who's gonna live?

Who's gonna die?

Those are the really exciting

stories that we wanna tell,

starting in this finale and rolling
