If it is in fact not easy, and actually quite hard, why did he begin by asking Jack why he found it so hard? 🤔

[@sreehariem2333]

@@Hankblue Good question...

[@michaelmoviemaker]

This scene must have to be one of the most intense scenes i have EVER seen in my life! The music, the acting, the cinematography, the sound, the alarm and whatever! This scene is UNFORGETTABLE as hell!

[@purpleglitterladette]

This show for me ages like fine wine because the older i get the more I understand the life themes and metaphors in this lol

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

Lost is like philosophical

[@BlueUKLouis]

season 2 is crazy! It's literally about a button!

[@Rob-nl5ge]

And Henry Gale

[@purpleglitterladette]

It's way more than that lol

[@metzger5850]

The craziest thing about the show is that they ended 3 straight seasons with dead John Locke as the big reveal.

[@henryaggerate9669]

More so it’s defined by the two gunshots and the fallout of them both: Ana Lucia’s and Michael’s

[@jaskoid2415]

It’s a leap of faith Jack...

[@krshah2008]

man i miss this show..

[@MrBravecoward]

One of the best scenes.......alot of the best scenes reflect the show's meaning.

[@alecxjones4419]

I believe this show is all about moving on.

[@Rob-nl5ge]

Love the dialogue between Locke and Jack in this season. The Hatch had some great scenes

[@SamuelDJCox]

I think THIS single scene is probably the closest to the heart of the whole show. Everything in the show concludes to "letting go"... the greatest part of letting go is learning incredible personal strength and to have hope and faith in your life. The man of science is a great person to be to let us survive, but to make life worth living and for us to feel happy, with purpose and meaning... to not feel lost... we have to find that incredible inner strength "faith" in ourselves. Jack never wants to believe because it makes no pragmatic or logical sense, but it's also more because all believing in something does is that it can ultimately make you unhappy in the long run... because the majority of things we hope or want for in our lives that we have to have faith we can get and deserve more often do not come to us and so many times our faith is not rewarded. Jack never believes because he sees no sense for it but also because he truly does not want to and is afraid to. Locke completely summarises it when he crystal clear explains it to Jack that just because Locke always is trying to believe does not mean that it is ever easier... and it never is... the majority of people in the world that look at good, kind hearted people who have incredible faith in the best of other people... they see people who on the surface appear to have an incredible unbreakable faith... but the truth is that the strongest of people who have that faith battle with it every single day. This is the part of Locke that Jack never sees nor has he yet learned or come to truly respect. Science, sense and logic is great and takes us great places, but there are so many incredible things that we can create and achieve when we can make courageous steps that are not always sensible and safe. The power of hope in face of all conflict is the greatest strength... Great, incredible scene!

[@jedi4049]

Samuel, I just wanna tell you thanks. Your comment hits on many levels. This show rose up to the top for me I finally watched it and finished a few weeks ago.

[@Kosomaddo]

The best thing John Locke did was make Jack a believer.

[@lennarthagen3638]

Jesus freak

[@jimmyjumpgr]

It was vital because MIB would never been killed

[@MrSwiket]

I always chuckle when Jack says "It's a button" at 2:27.

[@spikepsych]

lmao for real

[@TheDignam]

Man of Science vs Man of Faith.

"This argument is irrelevant" lmao

[@wallacerose8663]

One of the very best scenes the series.

[@nodararonia1554]

IT'S NEVER BEEN EASY

[@jimmy2k4o]

Jack is so full of it. He’s the reluctant believer, he’s in denial about his own beliefs. But he still hurry’s back with the right code.....and pushes the button. My gawd this show is amazingly perfect!

[@oshanepatterson5452]

Ik, it’s ironic.

[@jxsh03]

And by the end he and Locke (not Locke, MiB, but you get what I mean) effectively switch places with Jack believing in his destiny and Flocke mocking real Locke in how he believed.

[@oshanepatterson5452]

Instinct it’s like the episode from season 1 exodus part 2 I believe when Jack and John had a conversation about destiny Jack said, “I don’t believe in destiny, “ then Locke said, “Yes, you do you just don’t know it yet.”

[@jhdigital]

@@jxsh03 the Locke that pulled Jack up from the cliff in season 1 I’m now throughly convinced was actually mib Locke

[@TheRuAsPa]

@@jhdigital no, it couldnt be mib, locke needed to be dead in order for mib to take his body

[@exiaR2x78]

The thing that always bugged me about the way the hatch went is earlier in this episode Jack's Key around his neck is obviously effected by magnetism which Jack sees, Saiyid goes into the crawl space and compares the amount of concrete over to Chernobyl, as well as Desmonds comment about his fillings hurting. Jack being the man of science there's evidence to show it could very well be real. It bugged me later on in S2 after Locke visits the Pearl that he then thinks its all a trick, despite everything that points to the sawn button being real.

[@katbone1369]

Man of science!!!

[@neonik4270]

I think the button resembles prayer. Locke follows faith, as Jack follows science. The island 🏝️ is a place they were brought to, to be healed. It’s not death, but a special place. I also think this, because Mr. Eko was intrigued by pressing the button, 🖥️ and that the hieroglyphs in the Swan translate to underworld.

[@tommyjones9217]

SYSTEM FAILURE!!!!

[@Hankblue]

"It's never been easy" ..Then why did you just ask Jack incredulously why he finds it hard? If you're gonna turn around in the very next sentence and admit it's hard??

[@occono3543]

Yeah good actors and directors can do a lot to pave over script issues

[@blobcity3591]

the hatch is so cozy

[@LondonCrusader]

Its NEVER Been easy!

[@fredyfredo2724]

[@theOGofREDS]

didnt helen tell john something about a leap of faith as well?

[@DarknessIsThePath]

Yup, that's how he learned it

[@tarbosh917]

I think Locke enjoyed exerting this power over Jack. Jack didn't really believe it mattered, but Locke put it on him to choose whether to let the timer hit 0 and see what happens or reset it. Jack came off as being 100% sure it didn't matter, but when Locke said 'fine let it count down. Push it or don't.', a faint .01% chance of something horrifically bad happening crept into his mind. Locke didn't ever need Jack to wholly accept what he was asking of him, he just needed to prove to Jack that he accepts it even a little bit.

[@anitelufalemei4200]

I don’t think Locke “enjoyed” doing this over jack. I think Locke genuinely just doesn’t “want” to do it alone. Everything else you said is correct.

[@arodisgod13]

Wonder what would happen if you entered the wrong code

[@BabyMatiny]

i’d assume it would just like say invalid or something then you’d have to reenter the right code

[@RadagonTheRed]

The whole making Jack execute the code was bizarre. What difference did it make WHO pressed the button on that occasion?

[@nicholasvladd7149]

John just wanted to be melodramatic lol.

[@mauriciofreitas1971]

He sensed Jack's confusion and took the opportunity to bring him on board. Someone else would have done it if Jack hadn't.

[@danielgray2661]

John Lockes entire destiny on the island, was making Jack a believer. That was his purpose.

[@kbanghart]

John wanted Jack to be a believer.

[@random-nz7dy]

This conversation isn't really about the button. It's about John being a person of faith and sensing Jack is conflicted by science vs faith. He's trying to prove a point that when it comes down to it Jack is going to push it and listen to that faith Keep in mind John Locke woke up on this island not paralyzed. He knows that there's something deeper and greater going on. So the situation with the button, he interpreted as something necessary. Because of his miraculous healing he believed he was brought there for a reason. And wanted to convince Jack that that was the case for all of them. It's not easy for either of them to push the button and start putting their faith in something they don't understand.

[@itsjavola5472]

I dunno I always found John so annoying .

[@shanereid8135]

Everybody Iis annnoying in there own way.

A single episode with Kate on it is more annoying than Locke's entire appearances.

Kate is 10 layers of annoying just by herself.

[@LifeisARiddle]

I hate Hurley in this scene

[@cullenatwood5149]

Why? He was nervous because he realized the code Locke started reading off was his winning lotto numbers that he thought were cursed.

he’s like literally just added for comedic relief in this scene how do you hate him 😭

I hate Hurley in pretty much every scene the guy is like a red balloon in a prison
