A transcript is a retrospective written record of dialogue, and like a script (a prospective record) may include other scene information such as props or actions. In the case of a transcript of a film or television episode, ideally it is a verbatim record. Because closed-captioning is usually written separately, its text may have errors and does not necessarily reflect the true Canonical transcript.


Transcripts for Lost episodes up to and including "Enter 77" are based on the transcriptions by Lost-TV member Spooky with aid of DVR, and at times, closed captions for clarification. She and Lost-TV have generously granted us permission to share/host these transcripts at Lostpedia. Later transcripts were created by the Lostpedia community, unless stated otherwise below.

(Locke gives Ben a book from his own bookshelf)
The book is entitled VALIS

and played similar mind games with Locke.

(Bailiff, to Kate: "You are charged with fraud, arson, assault on a federal officer, assault with a deadly weapon, grand larceny, grand theft auto, and murder in the 1st degree.")

Jack is not telling the truth
the Marshal did not die in the crash.

before the Marshal died on the island.

(Jack: "Only 8 of us survived the crash.")
In truth, there were 48 survivors
from the fuselage section
and 23 survivors from the tail section.

(Jack says he doesn't love Kate)

in "Through the Looking Glass"
at the end of Season 3.

The Invention of Morel, the story of a fugitive
on a mysterious island in the South Pacific
who finds a machine that can re-create reality.

The theme from Xanadu, playing in the room
was performed by Olivia Newton-John.
Xanadu is the story of an unusual place
where dreams come true.

arrive on the island in parachute drops
on a regular basis.

with Walt in the pilot episode
just before Locke asked Walt
"Do you want to know a secret?"

In the Season 2 episode, "The Long Con"
Sawyer told Cassidy that a con works
by getting someone to ask you for something
thinking it's their idea, when really it's yours.

Extortion is the threat of violence to
force victims to surrender money or property.

Faraday emphatically told Frank
to follow the exact same bearing
they used to find the island.

This boathouse is actually located
at Dillingham Ranch
near Mokuleia Beach Park

He, along with Elizabeth Mitchell

(Kate goes "out the back way")
The Hawaii State Capitol building
