They look to Sayid for answers: "These wires -- they're leads from the watch. If we disconnect them from the battery, technically speaking, the bomb should be inert. Sawyer: "Technically?" Sayid: "Yes, but you need to pull them out simultaneously, and I'm not sure..." Sawyer then INTERRUPTS SAYID. "Step aside." 2:47. 2:46. Yeah, because you have the steadiest hands in the group, James? Come on. There's a damned spinal surgeon next to you. As if he hears me, Jack speaks up and tells them to wait. "Nothing's gonna happen... Don't pull those wires out. We're okay. Nothing's gonna happen." Sawyer: "If I don't pull these wires out, Locke's gonna blow us to kingdom come." Jack: "NO HE'S NOT. Locke can't kill us." Hurley: "Uh...what?" 2:28. 2:27. 2:26. "This is what he wanted. This is what he's been waiting for. Everything that he has done has been to get us here. He wanted to get us all in the same place at the same time. A nice, enclosed space, where we had no hopes of getting out of." Jin takes one for the fandom: "I don't understand." Jack: "Locke said that he can't leave the island without us. I think that he can't leave the island unless we're all dead. He told me that he could kill any one of us, whenever he wanted. So what if he hasn't because he's -- he's not allowed to? What if he's trying to get us to kill each other?" DING DING DING. Sawyer shakes his head. "Stay out of my way, Doc." 1:55. 1:54. Jack points out that Faucke didn't need to put a timer on the C4. He could have just thrown it down into the sub. I'm not sure how that works, but -- you know: Smoke Monster, Magic Magnets. Giant Walt Ghost. Bird that says "Hurley." Saywer doesn't care. Instead of explaining the dynamite and Richard or Hurley's visitations with Ghost-of-Jacob, Jack reiterates that nothing's gonna happen. Sawyer: "It's not your decision to make." Jack: "HE CAN'T KILL US." Sawyer: "I'M NOT GONNA STAND HERE AND DO NOTHING." Jack: "James, we are going to be okay. You just have to trust me." Oh Jack. Persuasion fail. 1:35. 1:34. 1:33. Juliet's life flashes before Sawyer's eyes -- as does her death. Sawyer shakes his head. "Sorry, Doc. I don't."
