Episode Quotes

Season 1 / Episode 7: - The Moth

Locke: [to teach Charlie, who is struggling through heroin withdraw, a lesson] What do you suppose is in that cocoon, Charlie?
Charlie: I don't know. A - a - a butterfly, I guess.
Locke: No, it's much more beautiful than that. That's a moth cocoon. It's ironic - butterflies get all the attention, but moths, they spin silk. They're stronger. They're faster.
Charlie: That's wonderful, but...
Locke: You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it. Now this is the second time you've asked me for your drugs back... ask me again, and it's yours.

Jack: [Jack's shoulder is dislocated; Charlie is going to have to pop it back in] I need your help on this, man.
Charlie: I can't do it, Jack!
Jack: Yes, you can.
Charlie: I can't...
Jack: Yes, you can!
Charlie: [calming down] Okay. What do I - what do I do?
Jack: Take my hand.
Charlie: [positioning himself over Jack] Just a second. Okay. Okay, wait. Okay. Okay.
Jack: Now, when I tell you to... pull as hard as you possibly can.
Charlie: [panicking] Jack, I don't know if - I don't know if I can - I don't - I don't...
Jack: You can do this, Charlie.
Charlie: Okay. Okay, okay, okay. Okay.
Jack: [Charlie grips his hand as Jack braces for the impact] Now!
