The Watch transcript
From Lostpedia
A transcript is a retrospective written record of dialogue, and like a script (a prospective record) may include other scene information such as props or actions. In the case of a transcript of a film or television episode, ideally it is a verbatim record. Because closed-captioning is usually written separately, its text may have errors and does not necessarily reflect the true Canonical transcript.
Please note that many episode scripts for earlier Lost seasons were transcribed by Lost-TV member Spooky with aid of DVR, and at times, closed captions for clarification. She and Lost-TV have generously granted us permission to share/host these transcripts at Lostpedia for the betterment of fans. Unless otherwise stated below, she created this transcript.
Disclaimer: These transcripts are intended for educational and promotional purposes only, and may not be reproduced commercially without permission from ABC. They represent one viewer's secondhand experience of ABC's LOST (executive producers J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof), and have no connection with ABC television or its affiliates.

Mobisode 1 - "The Watch"
Writer - Carlton Cuse
Director - Jack Bender
[Jack is throwing rocks into the ocean. Wearing shades, his hair is longer than normal.]
CHRISTIAN: Whatcha doin' there, kiddo?
[Camera turns to show Christian walking towards Jack on a beach. They are in front of the hotel where Jack will get married.]
JACK: Just throwing rocks.
CHRISTIAN: Good! Good, you get all that rock throwing out before you get married.
JACK: Well, it was either this or being inside with Sarah and the wedding planner figuring out where all the flowers go.
CHRISTIAN: Wise choice! Listen, before tonight; before... before things get crazy, I wanted to give you something. This was my dad's, and I just - I thought it would only be fitting.
[Christian pulls a watch out of a white handkerchief.]
JACK: I've never seen you wear it before.
CHRISTIAN: Well that's because I never did. [Jack and Christian chuckle] Your grandfather... didn't really like ... your mother. You know, he thought marrying her was a mistake. He told me - to my face - that, the day that I got married. And then he gave me this watch. So I never wore it.
JACK: Dad, are you trying to tell me something?
CHRISTIAN: Unlike me, you have made the absolute right choice.
JACK [chuckling]: Thank you.
CHRISTIAN: So here, it's yours.
[Jack puts the watch on.]
JACK: I guess this is really happenin', huh?
CHRISTIAN: Ooh... as soon as they arrange those flowers and you run out of rocks...
JACK [chuckling]: Well there's a lot of rocks out here.
CHRISTIAN: Would you do me a favor? If you and Sarah ever have a kid, try to treat him a little better than I treated you.
JACK: No pressure, right?
CHRISTIAN: I'll see you inside, kiddo.
JACK: Yeah.
CHRISTIAN: Okay?
JACK: Yeah.
