LOST FINALE

INTERIOR: NIGHT TIME

A room inside the church. There is a led lit window featuring the various religions of the world such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, etc. Jack Shepherd is in the middle of the room standing next to a coffin. He opens the lid of the casket but it is empty. He cannot hide his disappointment. Suddenly he hears a familiar voice from behind…

CHRISTIAN: …Hey kiddo.

JACK: [surprised] Dad?

CHRISTIAN: Hello, Jack.
JACK: I don't understand...you died.
CHRISTIAN: Yeah. Yes I did...
JACK: Then how are you here right now?
CHRISTIAN: [sighs] How are you here?
Long pause.

JACK: [finally realising] I died too...
CHRISTIAN: It's okay...it's okay. It's okay son.

They embrace and cry.


JACK: I love you, dad.
CHRISTIAN: I love you too, son.
JACK: You...are you real?
CHRISTIAN: I should hope so. Yeah, I'm real. You're real. Everything that's ever happened to you is real. All those people in the church...they're all real too.
JACK: They're all...they're all dead?
CHRISTIAN: Everyone dies sometime, kiddo. Some of them before you, some...long after you.
JACK: But why are they all here now?
CHRISTIAN: Well there is no now, here.
JACK: Where are we, dad?
CHRISTIAN: This is the place that you...that you all made together, so that you could find one another. The most...important part of your life, was the time that you spent with these people. That's why all of you are here. Nobody does it alone Jack. You needed all of them, and they needed you.
JACK: For what?
CHRISTIAN: To remember...and to...let go.
JACK: Kate...she said we were leaving.
CHRISTIAN: Not leaving, no. Moving on.
JACK: Where we going?
CHRISTIAN [smiling]: Let's go find out.

Together Christian and Jack Shepherd, father and son, move to the main part of the church where the reunion of Lost souls begins.
