Ben Linus
- Keamy: Tell your daddy 'goodbye'.
- [hands Alex the walkie]
- Alex: [crying] Dad, they're serious. They killed Karl and my mother.
- Ben Linus: Alex, I have this under control. Everything's going to be OK.
- Alex: Please, daddy! Please.
- [Keamy takes back the walkie]
- Keamy: You have 10 seconds, Ben.
- Ben Linus: OK, listen...
- Keamy: 9.
- Ben Linus: She's not my daughter...
- Keamy: 8.
- Ben Linus: I stole her as a baby from an insane woman. She's a pawn. Nothing more. She means nothing to me.
- [Alex cries]
- Ben Linus: I'm not coming out of this house so if you want to kill her, go ahead and do it...
- [a muffled gunshot interrupts Ben. Alex falls to the ground, Keamy standing over her, his gun pointed down where her head was. Ben is shocked, dumbfounded]
- Ben Linus: [after Sayid shoots his whole gun empty on the man who supposedly killed his wife] That should do it.
- James 'Sawyer' Ford: They just started shooting. Why?
- Ben Linus: Those people were murdered to make you angry, James. So you'd be more likely to come storming in here and throw me through the walls.
- James 'Sawyer' Ford: Well, what's wrong with that? Sounds like a great plan to me.
- [to John Locke]
- James 'Sawyer' Ford: What do you say? On three?
