Episode Report Card Daniel: C+ | 2 USERS: C YOU GRADE IT In torture we trust
By Daniel | Season 2 | Episode 14 | Aired on 02.14.2006
We're on Pariah Beach now, with Sayid sitting next to Charlie. Sawyer's gonna be a little late, fellas. Sayid tells Charlie about Henry down in the hatch, noting that he beat him badly. Charlie wants to know why Sayid's telling him this, and Sayid says that Jack wanted to know how Sayid knew for sure that Henry was lying about not being one of the Others. "I know because I feel no guilt for what I did to him. But there is no way I can ever explain that to Jack, or even Locke, because both of them have forgotten." Or possibly because "lack of remorse" after the fact as justification for torture before the fact is bullshit, but please continue. Charlie asks what they've forgotten. Sayid: "That you were strung up by your neck and left for dead. That Claire was taken and kept for days during which God only knows what happened to her. That these people, these Others, are merciless, and can take any one of use whenever they choose. So tell me, Charlie: have you forgotten?" Charlie looks kind of like, "Shit, yeah, I kinda did. Weird, huh?"
