Lost, Season 1
Christian Shephard:
So, you want to tell me what happened?
Jack Shephard:
A couple guys jumped Marc Silverman.
Christian Shephard:
A couple guys jumped Marc Silverman. But they didn't jump you?
Jack Shephard:
[beat] No.
[Christian goes to get himself another drink]
Christian Shephard:
I had a boy on my table today. I don't know, maybe a year younger than you. He had a bad heart. It got real hairy, real fast. And everybody's looking at your old man to make decisions. And I was able to make those decisions because at the end of the day, after the boy died, I was able to wash my hands and come home to dinner. You know, watch a little Carol Burnett, laugh till my sides hurt. And how can I do that, hmm? And even when I fail, how do I do that, Jack? Because I have what it takes. Don't choose, Jack, don't decide. You don't want to be a hero, you don't try and save everyone because when you fail... you just don't have what it takes.
