I'm- glad to see this is back to normal.

I guess it shows the extent to which we shouldn't take this whole life-after-death... deal... for granted. What a trip.

[Private to Jesse - Video]

What have you been up to? Looking after... him, I assume.

tough guy jesse, death is just a phase after life, see locke mourn

What am I, a babysitter?

I was just helping him out some. Guy's had a hard week.

I'm not saying you are. Or that he needs one, for that matter.

Yeah, no kidding. He's almost as old as you, so.

Really. I could swear he was older.

Still. How are you?

Aren't you like 60?

Not high. That's what you're asking me, right, John?

For- I didn't even turn fifty, kid.

[ For the slightest second he narrows his eyes in doubt, as though he isn't sure. He should actually be 51- but three of those years he never lived, just skipped in time, so technically he's still 48. He had actualy wondered a bit about this on the Barge before, without verbalizing it. But Johns's digressing, and he runs a hand from the forehead down his face. ]

No, Jesse. I trust you're not high. I meant about- about him, and the port. Since the last time we talked.

Really? Must be the bald thing.

I'm fine, man, whatever. Did you find... whatever the Admiral said we were supposed to be looking for?

[ He could swear Mr White was bald too, but he digresses. ]

I'm not sure what a bag of crackers had to do with repairing the barge, but it wouldn't hurt me either to know what you were up to instead.

I wasn't up to anything. I hung around, kept an eye on Mr. White. Had a couple beers with my boy. That was pretty much it.

It was a boring-ass port, yo, I don't know what everyone's so pissed about.

[ He tilts his head, an ambiguous look in his face. He wishes Jesse would trust him more, but knows he won't if he never treats him like an adult. ]

Figures... it wasn't a port like the other ones. Tough thing, having life taken from you. Makes people angry.

Yeah? I'm dead. I'm not angry. [Well, not about the being dead part, anyway.]

Maybe the Wardens're just pissed they finally got a taste of their own medicine.

[ He briefly considers. ]

Our own medicine?

[A begrudging amendment:] Not... you, I guess. The ones who're still alive.

[ A pause. ] Well, surely they must've done something right.

Why, just 'cause they didn't die? I don't think so. I mean--

[He opens his mouth to say something, but then stops, seeming to reconsider.] Forget it.

[ Tilts his head, eyebrow cocked with naive curiousity. ] What?
