- "What did you do for a living before you became Moses?" Naomi
- "I came in my invisible submarine. Don't you see it?" Charlie
- "Oh, yeah. Let's call Ben." Charlie
- "It's Charlie! Tell him I said hi!" Charlie
- "If you say live together, die alone to me, Jack, I'm gonna punch you in your face." Rose "Fair enough, Rose. Fair enough." Jack
- "I feel like standing.... stupid people...." Charlie "Who are you talking to?" Bonnie "I wasn't talking to anyone, I was just singing. [Sings] You all everybody! You all everybody! You all everybody! You all everybody!" Charlie
- "Don't do anything stupid." Jack "I won't if you won't." Juliet
- "You know when you get a tune stuck in your head? This song just started coming to me, it's almost finished. Just need to find the bridge." Charlie
- "Get the speargun!" Bonnie "What, why?" Greta "Because I want it to hurt." Bonnie
- "So, when you pulled us out of those polar bear cages and put us on the chain gang, what the hell you have us breaking all those rocks for anyway?" Sawyer "We were building a runway." Juliet "Runway, for what?" Sawyer "The aliens." Juliet "I don't know what for, do you think they told me everything?" Juliet "Yeah yeah, whatever you say. So you screwing Jack yet?"

- Sayid's badass moment. Hurley's badass moment.

- Jack knocking things over when he's all drugged up.
- "Attention, Others. Come in, Others. If you're listening in, I want you to know that we got you bastards. And, unless the rest of you wanna be blown up, you best stay away from our beach..." Hurley
- The scene with Penny and Charlie's death.
- The flash forward, of course.
Notes:- There is a theory that the people who Jack saved in the car crash were Rachel and Julian, Juliet's sister and nephew. I think that would be awesome.
- Rose has the best lines in this finale.
- Ben's notes in his journal, written by Michael Emerson.
From Lostpedia - Apparently Isabel, "The Sheriff," died in this episode.
- I hate Ryan. "I got your man?" Shut up!
- Bernard, you could've at least not told them the complete truth. Sayid told you to shut up!
- Jack, you love Kate, really? That was just about the worst "I love you" I've ever heard.
- Again, Jack, out of nowhere there's a secret cash of guns that Juliet knows about, why don't you question this? Couldn't you have used those guns when Jin was using a pistol to shoot dynamite, when the Others were coming to kill all of you?
- Poor Hurley, but so glad you had a badass moment, dude.
- HOFFS/DRAWLAR is an anagram for FLASH FORWARD.
- Reminder, don't mess with Sayid even if he is tied up and on his knees.
- Tom, Mr. Friendly/Zeke dies, a monumental character from Season 1, the first Other we ever saw, "Only the thing is, we're gonna have to take the boy," In Exodus, Part 2.
- For the record, I started to figure out this was a flash forward during the opening scene. Don't ask me why or how, but that was my first thought when I saw Jack.
- Also, when I saw that this was a Jack-centric episode, I seriously considered not watching anymore. I was so frustrated with Jack at that point, I figured either it had to be the best Jack episode ever, or that was it for me. I seriously didn't want to see another episode about how Jack went to Phuket to get Chinese tattoos from Bei Ling. Yeah, I really didn't want to watch another Stranger In A Strange Land, but, turns out it was the best Jack episode, and almost made me cry with happiness when I thought Jack would jump off a bridge or overdose from drugs and alcohol.
- While Charlie dying was sad, I thought it was done extremely well, and is probably the best death on television, ever. He died a hero, and I'll admit, it makes me cry every damn time.
- I have so much respect for the writers of LOST for producing such a game-changer in the show. I admire them so much for the guts they have to do almost anything and pull it off.
- Kate is fine as hell in the future.
