3. Thirty years earlier--at the sub, someone asks can I get a hand with this, Miles says yeah, it's Daniel, he says hey Miles, long time no see, Pierre Chang speaks, he says alright ladies and gentlemen, he wishes they could get a good night's sleep, Miles asks Dan what the hell he's doing there, he says that once he left for Ann Arbor, he figured he'd gotten rich, invented the DVD, Dan shows Miles a photograph of the new DHARMA recruits, Jack, Kate and Hurley, he says that's why he's back, asks when they got there, Miles says it's weird, that they got there a few days ago, Dan says they don't have time, he needs him to take him to Jack right now.
4. They knock on the door, Jack getting dressed, he answers, Daniel says Jack, how did you get back here, Jack is surprised to see him, asks where he was, Daniel says that he was at DHARMA Headquarters in Ann Arbor, that he was just doing some research, but what's more important right now, he asks how Jack got back here, to 1977, Jack asks Miles what's going on, Miles says don't look at him, he just carried his luggage, Dan asks how, Jack says they were on a plane, and then, Daniel asks who told them to get on a plane, Jack says as a matter of fact, it was his mother, Daniel asks how did she convince them, did she tell them it was their destiny, Jack says yes, that's exactly what she said, Daniel says he has some bad news, that he doesn't belong there at all, that she was wrong.

8. "Daniel... do you know what destiny means?" Eloise "No." Daniel "Destiny means that, if one has a special gift, then it must be nurtured. [Metronome stops] How many beats has that metronome counted since you started playing?" Eloise "864." Daniel "Your gift, Daniel, is your mind--a mind that is meant for science, mathematics. And it's my... job to keep you on your path. So... unfortunately, there's no more time... for distractions." Eloise
9. Dan talks to Miles, says he needs to bring him to The Orchid, drive him right now, Jack comes out after them, asks what did he mean that his mother was wrong, but they take off, Dan says he just has an errand to run, that he'll be right back.
10. Someone is knocking at Sawyer's door, it's Jack, he says that Faraday's back, Sawyers says what do you mean, why, Jack says he has no idea, that he came in on the sub, started talking nonsense, then he went to The Orchid, Sawyer says he'd love to trade theories about this now, but he's a little busy, Jack asks what he's busy with at 6 in the morning, Juliet says to tell him, Sawyer let's Jack in, he says that Phil, one of his security guys, got himself a video tape of him and Kate taking the kid out to the hostiles, Jack says where's the tape, Sawyer says it's with Phil, Jack asks and where is Phil, Sawyer shows him Phil, tied up in his closet, screaming, but gagged, Sawyer introduces them to eachother.
11. At The Orchid, Daniel is looking around, Miles asks are we waiting for something, Daniel sees Pierre Chang pull up, he says right on time, he'll be back in 10 minutes, he goes down the elevator to The Orchid, looks at his notebook, puts it in his jumpsuit, puts on a hardhat, listens to Pierre Chang talk to the construction site Foreman about the energy, he takes an oxygen tank, puts it over his shoulder, walks down the hallway, as Dr. Chang is leaving, he bumps into him, he says sorry sir, it won't happen again, they take out the injured man on a stretcher, Dan talks to the Foreman, who says time travel, how stupid does that guy think we are.
12. Daniel goes to talk to Dr. Chang, asks to have a second of his time, says that he just came in on the sub, that he's with The Swan team, they actually met three years ago, Pierre says right, he arrived with La Fleur, asks what he can do for him, Daniel says that he needs him to order the evacuation of every man, woman and child on this island, Pierre asks why he would do that, Daniel says because the man that is on that stretcher is a consequence of the electromagnetic activity that their drilling unleashed down there, Pierre says which is now contained, he starts to leave, but Dan follows him into the elevator, they start to go up, Daniel says that it's contained down there, but in about 6 hours, the same thing is going to happen at the site of The Swan station, and the energy there is about 30,000 times more powerful, and the accident is going to be catastrophic, Pierre says that is utterly absurd, what could possibly qualify him to make that prediction, Daniel says that he is from the future.
13. "I need you to order the evacuation of every man, woman and child on this Island." Daniel "And why would I do that?" Dr. Chang "A man is on a stretcher as a consequence of the electromagnetic activity that your drilling unleashed down here." Daniel "Which is now contained." Dr. Chang "It's contained down here. But in about six hours, the same thing is gonna happen at the site for the Swan station, only the energy there is about 30,000 times more powerful, sir. And the accident... it's gonna be catastrophic." Daniel "That is utterly absurd. What could possibly qualify you to make that kind of prediction? Hmm?" Dr. Chang "I'm from the future." Daniel
14. Outside The Orchid, Dan says to wait, Dr. Chang, Pierre says that he heard him talking about time travel, now he's had his fun, Daniel says please, to just look at his journal, look at his equations, that some of them won't be discovered for over 20 years, Miles runs over, says that he's sorry, that Daniel had too much drugs when he got on the sub, Dan tells Dr. Chang that Miles is his son, to think about it, a Chinese man named Miles, the same name as his baby, shows up with him, from the future, he asks if he thinks this is all a coincidence, Pierre asks is this true, Miles says no, Dr. Chang says to please stay away from me, leaves, Miles asks Daniel if he's out of his mind, Daniel says that he's just making sure that his father does what he's supposed to do, Miles asks what's that, Daniel says that he'll see. From Lostpedia
15. "No, no. Please, Dr. Chang. Just look at my journal, please. Look at these equations. Some of them won't be discovered for another 20 years." Daniel
16. "Think about it. A Chinese man named Miles--the same name as your baby--shows up with me from the future. You--you really think this is all coincidence?" Daniel
17. At Oxford, Daniel's graduation, his mother, Eloise Hawking is waiting for him, he comes out, introduces her to Theresa Spencer, she says Dan's told her so much about her, Ms. Hawking says well done, Daniel, and dismisses Theresa completely, says she thought they could celebrate his accomplishment with lunch, there's a nice restaurant near by, she says she reserved a table, Dan says they'd love to, but his mother says that actually, she was hoping it would be just the two of them, asks Theresa if she does understand, it's just that she doesn't get to see her son very often, Theresa says she understands, that it's okay, really.

18. At the restaurant, Eloise asks if there is something bothering Daniel, he says that she was so rude to Theresa, she says was she, Daniel says that Theresa is his girlfriend, Eloise says that she is his research assistant, that he should be focusing his energy on his work, she says that is what is important, Daniel says she's made it abundantly clear, why would he waste his gift on a woman, Eloise says that he won't have time for women in his life, they will only be terribly hurt, Daniel asks what does that mean, Eloise says it means that his work will always come first, Daniel says that's only because that's what she's always pushed him to do, that she's pushed and pushed, he asks when will it be enough, he's the youngest doctor to ever graduate from Oxford, he just got a new $1.5 million research grant, what else does he have to do, Eloise says a grant, that's wonderful, from whom, Daniel says he doesn't know, some Industrialist, Widmore, he thinks, Charles Widmore, Eloise says she doesn't want to fight with him, that's not why she came, Daniel asks why did she come, she takes a gift out from underneath the table, she says to congratulate him, she gets up, says good luck, and she does hope he knows that she means that, she leaves. From Lostpedia
19. "She is your research assistant. You should be focusing your energies on your work." Eloise "On my work." Daniel "Yes. That is what is important." Eloise "Yes. You've made it abundantly clear. Why would I waste my gift on a woman--" Daniel "I'm sorry to tell you, Daniel, but you're not going to have time for relationships. The women in your life will only be terribly hurt." Eloise
20. "Only because that's what you always push me to do. You pushed and you pushed and you pushed. And when will it be enough, Mother? When? I'm the youngest doctorate ever to ever graduate from Oxford. I just got a new 1.5 million pound research grant. What else do I have to do?" Daniel "A grant? That's wonderful! From whom?" Eloise "I don't know. Um... some industrialist. Widmore, I think. Charles Widmore." Daniel
21. "Why did you come?" Daniel [Ms. Hawking produces a small, flat gift box.] "To congratulate you. Good luck, Daniel. And I do hope you know that I mean that." Eloise
22. Daniel opens the box, sees the journal that he will take to the island inside, with a note written inside the cover, which reads, "Daniel, No matter what, remember that I love you, Mother." From Lostpedia

From Lostpedia
24. "All right, people. Party's over. I know y'all just showed up. The rest of us have been here for the past three years. This is our home. The last thing I wanna do is leave. But we ain't got no choice. We only got two options. We can either commandeer the sub, get the hell off this Island before anyone knows we're gone, or we can head back in the jungle, start from square one. " Sawyer
25. "Jack, I'm sorry I was rude before, but what I came to do is of critical importance to everyone in this room. Does anyone know where I can find the Hostiles?" Daniel "Why do you need to know that, Daniel?" Juliet "Because one of them is my mother. And she is the only person on this island who can get us back to where we belong." Daniel

Daniel "Because come tomorrow, you won't remember I did. Daniel, the real Oceanic Flight 815 crashed on an island--a special island with unique scientific properties. I want to send you to the Island. It will further your research, show you things you'd never dream of. But more importantly, it will heal you, Daniel--your mind, your memory." Widmore "H--heal me? W--why are you doing all this for me?" Daniel "Because you're a man of tremendous gifts, and it would be a shame to see them go to waste." Widmore "[Chuckles] You sound like my mother."

From Lostpedia
47. "In about four hours, the DHARMA folks at The Swan work site--they're gonna--gonna drill into the ground and accidentally tap into a massive pocket of energy. The result of the release of this energy would be catastrophic. So in order to contain it, they're gonna have to cement the entire area in, like Chernobyl. And this containment--the place they built over it--I believe you called it "the Hatch." The Swan hatch? Because of this one accident, these people are gonna spend the next 20 years keeping that energy at bay... by pressing a button... a button that your friend Desmond will one day fail to push, and that will cause your plane--Oceanic 815--to crash on this island. And because your plane crashed, a freighter will be sent to this Island--a freighter I was on and Charlotte was on and so forth. This entire chain of events--it's gonna start happening this afternoon. But... we can change that. I studied relativistic physics my entire life. One thing emerged over and over--can't change the past. Can't do it. Whatever happened, happened. All right? But then I finally realized... I had been spending so much time focused on the constants, I forgot about the variables. Do you know what the variables in these equations are, Jack?" Daniel "[Chuckles] No." Jack "Us. We're the variables. People. We think. We reason. We make choices. We have free will. We can change our destiny. I think I can negate that energy under The Swan. I think I can destroy it. If I can, then that hatch will never be built, and your plane... your plane will land, just like it's supposed to, in Los Angeles."
