19. Kate climbs out of her cage, Sawyers says to leave him behind, that it's every man for himself, Kate says she only said she loved him, so Pickett would stop hitting him, Kate climbs back in, says it's live together, die alone, Ben watches on the monitors.
20. "I don't know what they did to you. But I know you're scared enough to lie about it. And that scares me more than anything that they have done to us before." Kate

23. Ben takes Sawyer for a walk early in the morning.
24. Sawyer finds where the money is, he was working for the warden, Agent Freedman of the Treasury Department, the money, 10 million is in a red Bronco in a Stor-Quik Facility, Sawgrass, off 441, unit 23C, last 6 years of his sentence commuted, his commission, put in an account in Albuquerque, in the name of Clementine Phillips, with no way to find out where it came from.
25. Ben shows Sawyer another island, they're island, which they're no longer on, he has no pacemaker, they only put doubt inside him, the bunny was given a sedative, shows him a bunny with the #8 painted on it, Ben tells him that the island they're on is a small island roughly twice the size of Alcatraz, that there's nowhere to run, threatening Kate is what scared him, Ben quotes Of Mice and Men. From Lostpedia
26. "We did all this because the only way to gain a con man's respect is to con him. And you're pretty good, Sawyer. We're a lot better. Funny thing is, us telling you about the pacemaker wasn't what kept you in line. It was when I threatened her. You work so hard to make her think you don't care--that you don't need her, but, "A guy goes nuts if he ain't got nobody. It don't make no difference who the guy is, long as he's with you. I tell you, I tell you a guy gets too lonely and he gets sick." Ben

Questions:

1. Is Clementine really Sawyer's baby? Did Cassidy try to con him?
2. Why does Juliet say she not used to death when later, in D.O.C., she says she's lost 9 patients?
3. Why does Danny Pickett hate Sawyer so much?
4. Why don't the Others just ask Jack to do the surgery?

Favorites:

1. "Sound a little stuffy there, Chinatown. You need to blow your nose?" Sawyer
2. "You think the warden's breaking up those fights because you're cute, Costanza?" Sawyer
3. "God, I hate needles." Ben
4. "No, you have to go through the sternum--the sternum, like in the movie." Jason
5. "What the hell am I going to write, "Dear Goo-goo, Ga-ga?" She's a baby." Sawyer
6. "Is that--art?" Hurley "Nope. Just an experiment." Desmond "Okay. You want some fruit salad?" Hurley
7. "That little place you always wanted, George?" Sawyer "Sorry?" Ben "What, don't you read? It's from Of Mice and Men. You'd like it--puppy's get killed." Sawyer
8. "What the hell are you talking about?" Sawyer "It's from Of Mice and Men. Don't you read?" Ben

Notes:

1. The title Every Man For Himself is a reference to the Live Together, Die Alone speech Jack made in White Rabbit.
2. I believe that this is the first appearance of Ben's baton, the time travel beating stick.
3. This is the first episode where Desmond saves Charlie's life.
