LOST: Ilana and Ben [6x07-Dr. Linus]

[nepatriots77]

There are so many scenes in Lost that make my heart sink.

[ElenaGH1]

I'll have you! I'll have you Ben!

[hpnatalie]

This is my one act audition piece I hope I do okay

[zombieddie73]

MIB doesn't like this video!

[etnies10]

anyone know the song that plays while ben explains why he killed jacob?

[ElenaGH1]

@etnies10

It's Ben theme, "Dharmacide" =)

[drewby6789]

He's almost redeemable here

[FreakishAnimeFan]

I just love when ben says, "Because he's the only one that will have me."

It made me remember how Ben used to be so mysterious, so powerful in his ways, but slowly but surely detriorated. I wouldn't call him pitiful in this scene... actually, I would, but you -do- feel sorry for him.

[Soulless99]

1 person didnt get to go to the island

[zombieddie73]

Ben! Couldn't you have waited till she wasn't looking?

[tomhankslol]

llana and ben would make a good couple

[Sojourno]

1 person is a heartless bastard

[Sojourno]

i person is a heartless bastard.

[egdqv13234]

ILANA is hawwwt!!!

[kaufmj54]

I teared up, when he said

"But the thing that really mattered was already gone."

[blizzaire08]

Ilana was such a wasted character.

[Damon242]

@blizzaire08 She really was.

[jokingpenguin]

When ben says 'And he didnt even care' i thought he was on helium! XD

Still, a very moving performance by Micheal E. Bravo!

[LeonDeLaMole]

I'd like to point out, the purge was ordered by Widmore, NOT Ben! Masterful acting by Emerson here. Also, Zuleikha is so good here, it should be mentioned, and unbelievably mindblowingly hot :P

[jarpasmannen]

The Emmy's are not about acting and story anymore, Lost should have won the whole thing

[Cyberhamon]

@jarpasmannen I couldn't agree more. I mean, seriously, Mad Men? It's a decent show, but it's pretty much a soap opera! And Matthew Fox was amazing in The End. Yeah, he was just okay for the first few seasons, but after Through the Looking Glass he actually became great. Personally, I think Nestor Carbonell should've been nominated for Supporting Actor for Ab Aeterno, and should have won it too. And 24 winning for music, what was up with that?! I believe Lost was snubbed for being Sci-Fi.

[MrSuperSmashed]

Im a guy and I almost cried LOL, and almost during the finale. Lost was really amazing

[will9777]

1 Person did't get to the gun first!

[paulmccartneyfan1995]

i love how when ben throws the shovel away and starts running he's like "screw this! i'm out of here!". i didn't think it was possible for me to love ben any more than i already do but this scene makes me love him all the more. BENJAMIN LINUS = LOVE

[TheCheatingBastard]

Never will be such a beautifully written show again.

[AndyDufresne2342]

@TheCheatingBastard If only every one could see that.

[luchianoxxx]

I - Then what you want ?

B - Just let me leave..

I - Where would you go ?

B - To Locke..

I - Why ?

B - Because he's the only one who'll have me

I - I'll have you....

Yikes ! best Ilana & Ben scene ever !

[theultimateraider]

why did he not win an emmy?????

[sgreaves3490]

@theultimateraider I KNOW!!! Ridiculous!

[entouwane]

can't believe a scene like this isn't worth an Emmy.

[Transatlanticism04]

"But the thing that really mattered was already gone"

[MVPballer04]

the emmys were fuckn rigged this shouldve won emerson an emmy

[amadeusnarbutt]

This isn't Emmy worthy ...?

[crivy13]

Lost you dont need any 2010 emmys. Your a legacy in my book

[Lee86Cr]

Ilana just realizes a very important thing. With Benjamin Linus on your side, you might just get through the fires of hell unscathed. That and I really think she feels for him. Emerson is quite the precious gem. How many actors could break your heart like that?

[cycmpdf]

...and Michael Emerson didn't win this years Emmy how?...

[UrijahFaberbeast]

Lost is just a little too good...

[vibbage]

Michael Giacchino sure does love them trombones.

[panglossa]

and think that there are some "santoro's" out there that call themselves "actors"...

[csibatmanfan]

Emmy worthy scene

[FroggyQC23]

Only Michael Emerson can make you feel sorry for a mass murderer XD

[LeonDeLaMole]

@FroggyQC23 actually, according to the official encyclopedia (if it wasn't clear in the show, which I thought it kind of was), Widmore ordered the Purge of Dharma, not Ben

[DCM562]

@FroggyQC23 dont forget Rob Zombie by the end of Devil rejects i was felling bad for capt spalding otis and baby

[DXROCKER777]

I teared up, when he said

"Because he's the only one that will have me"

[jacks1bonnielass]

@DXROCKER777 teared up? I started bawling like a baby LOL

[Sojourno]

@DXROCKER777 Even after watching this over and over again, i always cry when he says that.

Michael Emerson is a truly amazing actor

...plus, he was in my all time fav movie...Saw

[Ragabeubeu]

@DXROCKER777 oh so did I 

[cycmpdf]

I was waiting for Ben to trip when he was running away, because that just seemed like the obvious thing to happen in lost...

[ohsodreary]

This scene is basically the climax of Ben's arc for the entire series. He just kinda hangs out for the rest of the season, but this is it.

[Tateromeo84]

I love this episode, and the contrast it has to episode 409; The Shape Of Things To Come. In this episode, in Ben's flash sideways, we see him give up his chance to become principal for Alex's future. Which is ironically the decision he would've made if he could go back in time when Keamy had a gun to her head.

[LOSTandfound922]

this scene is so amazing. brilliant acting by Michael Emerson. thsi scene makes me cry! its that good. love it!

[jacks1bonnielass]

I swear I'm going to be royally PISSED if Michael Emerson doesn't win his the emmy for outstanding supporting actor in a drama series!

[sgreaves3490]

Michael Emerson is the greatest thing ever created!

This scene is one of the greatest moments of acting I have ever seen! Emmy PLEASE!!!

[jacks1bonnielass]

Most powerful scene of LOST of all time

[grapes9h5]

This is ben's greatest moment (even better than his encouragement of Hurley in The End)

[jacks1bonnielass]

This (besides The End) was my FAVORITE Ben scene out of all of Lost, he truly shows you how much of a changed man he really was

[Blackcap2000]

I love this scene so much.

Michael Emerson is an great actor!

[reganam122]

This scene is so powerful! Not only because of the fine acting skills of Michael Emerson, but also because of the way Emerson has portrayed Ben throughout the show, to be a manipulative bad guy, whereas here, your heart just goes out for him! Brilliant <3!

[csibatmanfan]

i am seriously going to scream if Michael Emerson does not get at least an emmy nomination!

[sned1231]

Brilliant!!!!! Michael Emerson RULES!!!!!!!!!

[travischelgren]

"and he didn't even care" sounds really weird lol

[binkerrrrr]

%UH %UH

[vegas2990]

This is one of my absolute favorite scenes ever!!!! Michael Emerson is the absolute best actor on television, just give the guy another Emmy already. There will never be another character like Ben.

[Lion29a]

Best scene ever in my opinion! Michael Emerson is Exceptional! Brilliant!

[DriveMeBanannas]

he has to win an emmy for this... one of the most emotional scenes of lost... i love ben

[jacks1bonnielass]

this is such a powerful scene and is possibly my favorite scene of Seasons 6 so far, it just tears at your heart strings and you can't help but feel for Ben, and know that he is a person with feelings, but the saddest part is that it took the death of Alex for him to become a better person

[clegorburu]

Grammy?

[jim2738426]

@clegorburu haha best new artist?

[caflagel]

Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn are pretty much the best actors on the show.

[AnTreAsx92]

proof it

[fazer990]

ilana has got one heck of an ass

[SirAlain]

Oh and this reminds me of the ending scene in Heroes 1x17 (Company Man) - between Noah and Claire. Very different story and setting, but the powerful dramatic acting is very moving.

[SirAlain]

I love this scene! Both are excellent actors!

[csibatmanfan]

'because he is the only who will have me.'

i don't know about you guys, but my heart broke when he said it.

[maveholic]

Michael Emerson (Ben Linus) and Nestor Carbonell (Richard Alpert) are the only ones from LOST who should be nominated for an emmy for this season.

[075X]

@maveholic

You dont think 'Locke' should too?

[bubbles459]

@maveholic You're joking, right? Terry O'Quinn is an acting genius. His work this season and in seasons before has been BEYOND all realms of incredible. If you can't see that, then you must not be actually watching the show....

[maveholic]

@bubbles459 I'm not joking and I do watch every episode... you have your opinions and I have mine. His John Locke was emmy worthy when he won them, but his MIB and alternate universe characterizations come nowhere close to those points.

Make your case to the awards staff if you disagree so much.

[bubbles459]

@maveholic No need to, the awards staff will know good acting when they see it in Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn.

[bubbles459]

@maveholic oh dear sweet maveholic, I don't think you know what ignorance means. Now go wash out your mouth and maybe you'll turn into an actual human being.

[maveholic]

@bubbles459 make me cunt :)

[davenuge]

Michael Emerson is amazing. What an actor. This scene had tears spilling out of my face.

[jacks1bonnielass]

@davenuge it did mine also, I was tearing up the entire time, but the part that made me really got the tears flowing was "Because he's the only one that will have me"

[davenuge]

@jacks1bonnielass Fantastic line, but the delivery absolutely slayed me.

[binkerrrrr]

ALL IN THE NAME OF JACOPO

[starsinsaturn]

OMG. %uh %uh!!! (at 1:23 on the transcribe audio)

[Bobbylatope]

2:21 : the expression on his face is awesome.

[snoopylover28]

Ughhh that scene is just so effing amazing!!!

So touching, so moving,so everything. I was bawling!!!

[iRockYurSockss]

Lol this transcribe audio thing is hilarious, "Because he's the only one that'll have me" transcribes as "it's his fifth amendment privilege that it" ... um hwhat?

[Pwnerfmn3]

Amazing scene. After this scene, he's my 2nd favorite character.

[fromGRbrotha]

I was terrified, that I was about to lose the only thing that ever mathered to me, my power. But the thing, that really mathered, was already gone...

- best LOST quote ever

[BlackOut0189]

I have to be honest, when I watched this the night it aired I cried...Great acting by both Michael Emerson and the actress who plays Illana. Also, Michael Giacchino's great music makes it all the more emotional.

[mjs8243]

Michael Giacchino does not get enough credit for his role with the show. Background music for this scene is perfect...

[pascha120]

I really love this scene but I can't get past how Illana reminds me a little of Ana Lucia.

Maybe I'm wrong and it's just a coincidence that both actresses playing Ana and Illana kind of look similar... but is there a possibility that Illana might be Ana Lucia's sister?

[OddGodHMK]

Absolutely, without a doubt, the best scene of the whole of season 6 thus far. Utterly wonderful, pulls right on the heartstrings, and if Michael Emerson doesn't get an award for his work this season I will be incredibly surprised.

[Klownius]

Absolutely amazing scene. Emerson, for the second time (after the "I have to go say goodbye to my daughter" line from TSotTC) has had been in tears with just one line. You really feel for him, and he's clearly being genuine, quite a rare thing from Ben Linus.

Kudos too to Zuleika Robinson. She's great in this scene. Just from her face you can see how she goes from anger to shame to understanding.

Wonderful moment.

[evilpinko]

How talented he has!! Michael ^^

[justlikeEmma]

I ship it hard

[Dismas444]

One of the few moments in Lost that affected me emotionally...I actually cried a little :( it shows how he's really not a bad guy, in fact he's much more human than he would ever have admitted had Alex lived.

[AndyandBruna]

such a great scene!! idk if its just me but they would look so CUTE together!! like if their characters fell in love!!! i might be thinking silly but i want these two characters to be together now!! shed be good for ben! =D

anyways love this scene

[spindw]

@AndyandBruna That would certainly be the ultimate forgiveness from her, wouldn't it?

[Leonides02]

This is one of those truly sublime moments of storytelling on TV. One of those moments that shows you what the medium is truly capable of. Amazing.

[StrawberryPegasus]

for a split second i was scared she was going to shoot him after she said "I'll have you"

[jamjam889]

This is absolutely one of the best scenes in the whole series! So emotional.

[HouseAvatarfanjd]

love the music :) Michael Emerson is a truly amazing actor

[JennyKenobi]

One of the best scenes of LOST ever seen !

Great Michael Emerson! I like very much Ben's charachter!

[TonkaLancey]

I was moved by Michael Emerson's performance like so many of you. He is a truly amazing actor. But in watching it over again, I realize what an interesting character Ilana is too. And what a fine actress she is too. Let's see more of her too!

[LenaLosAngeles1983]

Another Emmy or Michael Emerson!!! This scene, this whole episode was gold! The way Ben pleads with Ilana would make another character seem pathetic, but not Ben. It makes him human and even more intriguing. I love Ben Linus!

[patri0party]

Why Ilinia say to Ben "I have you"?

[whitedwarf75]

@clayaikenatemybaby lololol :)

[novarock86]

It means she accepts his apology and he can stay with their group. Whether that's because she is truly ready to forgive him or because she knows it's way better to have Ben with you than against you is unclear for now. Probably both. But I like to think that what he said made a deep impact (considering she had tears in her eyes) and she probably feels the same way to a certain extent. Either hat or she totally has the hots for him which would also be understandable LOL.

[patri0party]

@novarock86 Thhanks :)

[Stylez1001]

pretty sure she said ill have you

[BRONXtv]

it's her accent smart one

[novarock86]

@BRONXtv

No she clearly said 'I'll have you'... in reply to Ben's 'No one will HAVE me'.

[Stylez1001]

@BRONXtv nah she sed ill have you

[Yoda366]

@BRONXtv she said ill have you

[HeatherRose29]

And this is why Ben is and always will be my favorite character on LOST. Michael Emerson is so amazing. This scene is flawless and beautiful. Brought a few tears to my eyes... =)

[BenTaylor3907]

Thanks for posting this aadrienns. Michael Emerson and Zuleikha Robinson were truly superb in this scene. The best moment on Lost so far. Kudos. *gives 5 stars*

[33kade]

ilana got a big ass

[thyatt5473]

I can't believe how moving this scene is. Michael Emerson is a genius! In my opinion this is 3 minutes of the best television ever!

[warrickgirl37]

Everytime he says because he's the only one that'll have me, my heart breaks a little more. Michael Emerson is incredible. If he doesn't at least get nominated for an emmy this year I will personally go to the people who are in charge of the nominations and bitch slap everyone of them.

[breezelda]

Yeah Ben, tossing that make-shift shovel in the air won't catch her attention. LOL

The escape was too funny, but the exchange between the two after moved me.

[zoliejater]

Ben is like, 'The hell with the girl eating the mango, I'm getting my ass otta here!' LOL Ben needed a boost out of the pit, so the shovel over the shoulder is just comedic brilliance. Great scene between Ben and Ilana. For once, I started to feel bad for Ben.

[TheCheatingBastard]

Without a doubt the best scene on the show thus far.

Emerson is a brilliant actor.

[Omorfos9]

I forgive Ben

[mupty]

Does anyone find it funny how Ben tosses the shovel and runs? XD

Definitly one of Lost's truly moving moments on the show and a major plot/character turn as well. I did not expect Ilana to forgive him. I actually thought Ben would join with Locke.  The fact that he didnt is going to completely transform the story and Ben himself. I cant wait to see how this all goes down!

[animator1982]

incredible scene. the emotion between the two actors is touching. emerson is a great character, once again. but ilana is fast becoming one of my favourites . shes such a noble and beautiful woman. im glad shes in the show.

[jimene89]

She's becoming one of my favorites too. She's so strong and beautiful. And what she did for Ben was the biggest gift he has ever received, forgiveness. And that makes her ever more wonderful.

By far my favorite scene in the entire series. It's perfect.

[animator1982]

@jimene89

yeah hope there will be more on her character. since she knows jacob i think its highly possible.

[JediMasterFisher]

Best acting moment on LOST yet.

[LetsGoMets211]

Can Michael Emerson win an award just for this episode? Because he should.

[snoopylover28]

@LetsGoMets211

seriously.. this scene is amazing!!!

[jacks1bonnielass]

@LetsGoMets211 I agree 110%!! This scene made me bawl

[BalanceFish]

@LetsGoMets211 More like, can he win one just for this scene?

[90sShowJames]

@LetsGoMets211 Yep, that's how the Emmys work. It's individual episodes. And he's nominated, too...

[warlord4400]

My favourit scene in season 6 so far!

Damn Micheal Emmerson is such a talented actor. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets the emmy again for best supporting actor.

[brockstudent181]

I'm thrilled with the comments for this video. One of my all time favourite scenes from the entire series and I'm loving that everyone else feels the same way. Hard to believe that he was once Henry Gale. He's been such an incredible character. It's going to be really sad to see the show leave.

[cryhwks]

I think Michael Emerson just won another Emmy with this scene

[hope120607]

Emerson is such a great actor! It's probably the best scene in Lost ever!

[Sojourno]

when i watched this seen i was actually crying.

UNBELIEVABLE acting on Michael's part.

[eringobragh91]

Oh my gosh, Michael Emerson is the most amazing actor on this show. This scene is absolutely fantastic.

[cronullasharks7]

Emerson is awesome. Amazing acting from both actors.

Ps - Is it just me or is Ilana totally hot??!!

[Sojourno]

It's defenetly NOT just you.

[fromGRbrotha]

yeah she is hot indeed

[LacrimosaDeMagpyr]

Amazing scene, makes me want to give Ben a big hug... He lost everything and stayed completely alone only with his feeling of guilt... Good that Ilana will have him :)

BTW, Michael Emerson's acting is just brilliant. This is his another outstanding monologue, as good as this one he gave in the scene of Jacob's death. Love it!

[Albion19]

Such an amazing scene. When she said "I'll have you," oh it was beautiful. You don't often get a character at once so hardcore but also so kind.

[revan348]

michael emerson's acting brings tears to my eyes.

[gamemasterc]

what an incredible scene.

[novarock86]

New Ship :) Benana.

[AsG1989]

2:54 ben checking out that ass

[fromGRbrotha]

LOST is my life... i can survive without it

[fromGRbrotha]

canT

[butt3r5]

Great freaking amazing acting of Michael Emerson. He is a God!

[GeoSaysHi]

Amazing.

[LDMythos]

Great sce- Whoa, dejá vu!

I think this is actually one of those rare "Honest Ben" moments. Amazing stuff.

[ahahahayeahright]

great scene

[daygoor]

great scene !!!

[mutantemma]

great scene

[shadsc06]

BEST SCENE of the whole episode not including (THE REUNION)! I wish Ben would have pulled the trigger, lol.

[THEFIRSTAVENGERUSA]

Naw then he would have been a jerk and be a pawn for Locke. No real redemption for Ben. This scene shows he finally is sorry for his deeds and is done being manipulated, choosing a side finally and done with his power. Best scene in the episode.
