Quotes 

• 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?
