Jacob: No, Jack, trust me.
(DR. CHRISTIAN SHEPHARD appears in a giant bubble.)
Jack: Dad?
Christian Shephard: Son, you've had the power to redeem your life and get off this island all along. Just click your heels three times and say, "There's no place like home. There's no place like home."
Evil John Locke: No! He's lying! Clicking your heels will doom us all!
Hurley: Dude, maybe Locke wants you to click your heels. Or, maybe he wants you to not think he doesn't want you to click your heels. Or, maybe he wants you to think he doesn't not think--
Jacob: You must make a choice. As we all must do.
Jack: (clicking heels) There's no place like home...there's no place like home...
(Jack rises in air, looks below to see "GOODBYE" spelled out in rocks.)

John Locke: I was in a plane that crashed onto an island. Nothing made sense in this place. I was in a wheelchair, but then I could walk. I was killed and reborn, but it wasn't really me. And there were polar bears and hatches and philosophical ramblings that seemed to go on for years...
Emily Hartley: That's it. No more wild boar before bed.
(Enter LARRY and DARRYL, wearing DHARMA Initiative jumpsuits.)
