This was one of the best episodes of the entire series...very emotional.

Ben Linus, a killer and manipulator, comes at Jacob with a knife Jacob: You have a choice Richard, a starving slave who was imprisoned for days in a ship comes at Jacob with knife Jacob proceeds to beat the crap out of him

Richard is seriouslly one of the best on the island. He is a good man, a good leader for The Others. I love Richard, and his style

The fact that Nestor Carbonell was never awarded for his performance in this episode and indeed the entire series as a whole is an absolute scandal.

Richard: "He said you are the Devil." Jacob: "No. Only on 'Supernatural.'" Would have been funny if he said that.

The most amazing thing about Richard Alptert's first encounter with Jacob was being slugged in the face and waterboarded. I'd be terrified of Jacob too.

I know that people are surprised that Jacob fought Richard back and then let himself be killed years later, but we have to remember that the Jacob who stopped Richard and the Jacob who confronted Ben are two totally different people. He was immature and naive in both Across the Sea and Ab Aeterno, probably because he lacked real socialization until this point. Sometime between this encounter and the Incident, he came to terms with that and became enlightened, ready to accept his fate.

I never understood how people think they died since beginning....Jacob prove it in this scene the island is real

Kind of stupid to bring people to the island and to ask them where did they come from.

I love how Jacob is all surprised the MiB gave Richard the knife. Who tf else could it have been, Jacob?!

2:08 Where are the money Lebowsky?

2:08, when John baptized Jesus.

Every anti-realist philosopher needs to be Jacob'd, pronto.

2014 and still great

The Man in black was right about him being the devil...he plays Lucifer in supernatural :D

“Still think you’re dead?! Why should I stop?”

*what I want to do to people who don't get the ending* (Thrust head into sea) still think they're dead?! (Thrust head into sea) still think they're dead?! Why did Jacob stop Ricardo from dying?!

i did not finish watching the seasons and im in the end of season 3 and this show is the best show i ever seen in my life!

his hair and makeup is amazing....I never watched this show and I know Nestor originally from Bates Motel. Man even seeing his face for 10 seconds in this clip I still could not believe it was him.

2:12 where’s the money, Ricardo?!

Jacob after he throws Richard in the water : "Where's the money Lebowski ?!? Where's the money ? Bunny said you're good for it WHERE'S THE MONEY SHITHEAAADD ??"

Funny that he becomes the devil in supernatural

Has anyone ever picked up on the fact that 2:11 is an intentional reference to the "wheres the money" scene in big lebowski? Its the same actor, mark pellegrino

2:08 An homage to The Big Lebowski. The same actor that played Jacob also played the goon that repeatedly dunks The Dude's head into the toilet in the beginning of the movie.

It's funny how Jacob is the one who acts more like the devil, man in black knew that his real mother was murdered and all he was trying to do was leave.

I love his reality check.

Well the Actors Perfomance is out of this World, awesome. One of my favourite Character:) I re watch the Show every Year

“Are you the devil” “No” I THINK THE **** NOT

It seems to be the same thing that went on at the Temple. The Temple Spring, presumably drawing healing power from Jacob so that they could make use of it without needing him to actually be present, was able to save a mortally wounded Ben as a child. Then Dogen attempted to do the same with Sayid, but was unable to because Jacob's death negated the spring's healing powers (or something) so that the water no longer had the power to heal, evidenced by Dogen's cut not healing, and Sayid drowning.

'Where's the f@$king money Lebowski? Where's the money Lebowski 2:25

Excellent episode !

''DO YOU BELIVE YOUR DEAD!? *Drowns richard*

I forgot the statue in ruins, excellent ! They should showed others conversations, with Jacob and Richard, after the crash of the plane...

From 2.00 on, I kind of imagine Sybil Fawlty saying "Oh, you've done it now", and Basil replying, "No I haven't, but I'm just going to........" :)

That rug really tied the room together.

I cry with this episode

The first waterboarding in human history?

He should have done that to Ben Linus from the start, and maybe he would still be protecting the island.

The christian/religious symbolism in this show is amazing. Jacob, dunking Richard in the water. Baptising him. Waking him up to the fact that he is still alive and his actions matter. Only when accepts what Jacob is saying (word of god) does jacob stop. In the following scene when Jacob explains to Richard that he brings people to the island but does not want to help them, he wants them to help themselves. And Richard says "but if you don't step in, he (man in black/devil) will. " So Jacob asks Richard to be his intermediary (priest/monk) and relay his message to those who come. And in return he grants Richard eternal life (another christian motif, along with many other religions). Here is the scene where Jacob explains things to Richard. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hM13h62K1trMkqM.html Beautiful story telling, though it seems they lost a lot of budget in the last couple seasons. It's unfortunately the production company lost faith in the show near the end. It still wasn't horrible quality. But it had that 1990's made for tv movie feel in the last season, instead of the hollywood movie feel of the first seasons.

"Where's the money, Ricardo?"

Jacob baptized the shit out of Richard

around 1:37, wats with the weird camera angle on jacob? some meaning to that? or is that just us looking at jacob from richard's view

@airbeyonder18 I though that episode was the best this season, with ab aeterno at second. It finally gave a sense of direction to all the events that have been occurance, and a general sense of context, too. Despite not showing cool stuff like ab aeterno did (eg. Titus & Mark etc), it was even more engaging and much more dynamic.

My First Impression of Jacob: A mythical being that has lived on the Island for thousands of years helping the 'good' in people grow and flourish. That was back before I saw this and Across the Sea. New Impression of Jacob:This guy is crazy... Seriously, when Richard came at him Jacob beat the shit out of him and when Ben did kill him Jacob actually touched him. Of course, I've haven't made it all the way through Season 6 yet so there could be a reason behind it I don't actually know yet.

Jacob is so cool, and so was this episode. I think the reason Jacob was trying to baptise Richard was because he had been corrupted by the smoke man (which should be his nickname not MiB), maybe that's why Charlie thought Aaron had to be baptized?

2:22 pause and look at Richard's face. Looks like he wore a mask dfsfshffsf

2:09-2:30 That's how Jesus was baptized XD

2:12 Where's the money Lebowski ?

There's an episode in season 1 when it's explained that all of the wreckage from the plane crash is going to be swept out and buried. What happened to the remains of the statue is likely the same as what happened to the plane wreckage.

funny how jacob says "it wasnt your wife" as though he knew who it was...hopefully the coming episodes will reveal why certain characters can see there dead loved ones as though they are alive

Richard: Are you the devil? Jacob: No Me: are you sure? Cuz mr frizzles can sense that your being a LLLLIIIIIAAAARRRRR

Richard was awesome.

Hey guys. Jacob was actually looking for a candidate, so he knew that was the time to die. That's why he "let" Ben choose

I suggest a change of the video's title to "Jacob attacks Richard". WOW. You go, dude! The very first moments of this video remind me of the Pilot, when Jack comes out of the jungle.

Richard and his wife were in a big ship called the Black Rock on the ocean, they went through a bad tempest and in that moment they crashed on a big strange statue and ended up shipwrecked on the island. (excuse my bad english)

he did the same thing to the dude

Yeah Jacob definitely feels like the good guy lmao

2:00 Where's the money, Lebowski?!

0:58 That must have been a big pain

“He said you were the Devil” “Not on this show”

I haven't and I bet no any other human alive or dead had seen a TV show loaded with big characters all of which gave a 10/10 performance like LOST!

I love how Richard has been beat up by both Jacob and MIB

that's some hardcore Baptizing

The bottle is the concave earth. Can't escape it. Even in death An endless loop

Whats dead may never dies.

Where's the money Lebowski?!

Man just finished this series and Oml it was so hard to finish 😭 But when Richard asked Jacob if he was the devil I couldn’t help but to laugh bc the same actor to play Jacob plays the devil in supernatural

His wife had already died in their home country. She was not on the boat that crashed into the statue. Richard (Ricado) was on the Black Rock - a prison ship - because he had accidentally killed a doctor who refused to come help his sick wife.

@ilpoverosoldato Believe it or not, its the same actor! Look up Mark Pellegrino on IMDB!

Some harsh baptism!

@JominatorXS Maybe, but I think that won't be a new Jacob, that they'll destroy the Island to catch forever the MIB. He can't touch the water, so If the Island is destroyed, he couldn't leave, and won't need candidates. And this will be the flash-sideways.

Masterpiece of an episode in a poor season

That's one of the reasons I've never trusted Jacob.

@justtv321 For Richard, that ass-whoopin' just felt like eternity.

@MovieManiac80 I met him =) I told a person next to me after we shaked hands that i was a candidate now and he heard it and was like yes you are a candidate when he walked away..i was like like fuck yeah

lmao loved this best episode

For some reason, I see a pyramid in the first seconds of the shot in the background, like the forest grew over and around it, would be cool if that is why the Statue is there or if it has any relation...that is, if that is a pyramid in the back.

why is jacob so aggressive towards richard?

Of course, that still raises the question of how the Man in Black does it. I mean Sayid was definitely dead at the point when he was revived, and assuming that my theory was correct and Claire was infected and revived when her house was blown up in The Shape of Things to Come, there's no way she should have been able to survive that explosion, even by Hollywood standards. Granted, they weren't quite the same as they were before dying, but still, that's one thing that's curious.

jacob is a badass

@s7uxt I think that was just a vivid hallucination the monster made him see.

0:42-2:29 Jacob, your Lucifer is showing!😂

@landenundertakerfan Oh yes! Mr. Eko would be proud

Richard looks like Jesus Christ here..

at 1:06 jacob said: what are you doing here? who give you this? he knows the dagger its important

this was a good scene.

If he can fight like this, why did he let that goofball stab him in the pyramid?

Baptism 10x

2:22 LOL richard's hair is all around him

I love that Richard thought that Jacob was the devil because the same actor that plays Jacob played lucifer in supernatural 😂😂

@abudianto LMAO :D Well that, I never EVER thought about :)

So finally I got to see the remainings of the statue.. but strange that none of the peices really represent anything or any kind of forms what they were or from which part they belonged to. I also find it sorta strange that they're completly gone when "locke" with ben and his people returns there many years later. Problably under the sand, but after only about 130 years? I maybe missed to see the rocks when I was watching the episodes, I didn't pay attention to the statue then tho, not like now.

Richards face at 2:23 😂😅🤣

@QuikDJ He is the protector of the light. The light is life.

@Uxoriouswidow : Yes, why does this have any signifigance?

Jacob is supposed to be a christ like figure on this show.. and did anyone else put 2 and 2 together when he brought Richard into the ocean? Kinda like he was baptizing him hahahaha !! I mean obviously it wasn't but I like the nod there.. lol

@justtv321 Well obviously he gets to choose whether he gives you power or not when he touches you. E.G. If it was like that then this would most likely happen* *Jacob leaves the Island to touch a candidate* *Accidently bumps into random pedophile who gains immortality* JACOB: Oh God dammit!!!!

2:09-2:30 "Where is the money Lebowski?!":)

Neither were really dead. Dogen implies that his son was on the verge of death, with no way for anyone in the normal world to help him, but not quite dead yet, allowing Jacob to save him using his supernatural healing powers. Same with Locke. That fall SHOULD have killed him instantly, but this is a Hollywood TV show, so he was still alive enough for Jacob to revive him to the point where normal doctors could help him, though not enough to heal his paralysis or his minor injuries.

@airbeyonder18 I see this comment was posted before "the candidate" :)
