SAWYER
"Why?"
He shrugged and said, "Wouldn't want the responsibility." The look on her face told him he needed to explain, so he went on, "Whoever has the gun is gonna have to be the one to put him out of his misery. The man's dying a slow death and his moaning ain't doin' nothin' for morale."

JACK
"A few more days away from home and I'm going to start forgetting who I am, you know?"
Jack nodded slowly, "Yeah, I know." Jack placed the bottle into his backpack, "Can I help you with anything? I mean, I don't want to seem rude, but I should be getting back to..." there was a loud groan and coughing coming from Jack's tent. Jack sighed, "...Him"

Willo walked to G4-Beach and Shore.

She gave him a blank look, trying to figure out what he was talking about in his roundabout way.
Kate's expression turned to one of surprise as she turned and stared at the tent where all the groans of pain were coming from. In the back of her mind, she'd known what Sawyer had meant. The gun somehow felt heavier as its presence and meaning suddenly became more prominent.
She looked back at Sawyer and shook her head. "I can't," she said quietly. "I can't just... shoot him and put him out of his misery like some animal." At the same time, Kate knew it was what had to be done and Jack didn't seem capable of doing it. What should she do? Walk around and start asking people? No, that would be terrible. She looked at Sawyer more closely, wondering if he could do it, her expression asking what she couldn't voice.

SAWYER
"I can't," she said quietly. "I can't just... shoot him and put him out of his misery like some animal."
"Then I guess we'll be puttin' up with the marshal for a little while longer," he said in a manner that hinted he didn't care one way or another.

"Let me know if you need anything, alright doc?"
He gave a friendly nod, "Sure... Thanks."

KATE
He was playing one of his mind games again. Somehow, she figured he had already worked out the solution. "You act like you don't care when you're the one who just sat here and said what probably everyone her is thinking."
If he was the one with the gun, she didn't think he'd be voicing what needed to be done and then just go on in and shoot the man. She wanted to wipe that smug look off his face so she pulled the gun from the back of her khakis and held it out to him. "You think if you had the gun that you could 'be the one to put him out of his misery'?" She was throwing what he said back in his face and didn't think he'd take the bluff, let alone touch the gun after what he proclaimed.

SAWYER
He didn't even blink at her remark, just shrugged instead. "Wouldn't be hard. One bullet oughta do it, if it's done right." He didn't reveal how he knew such things. With his country boy accent, she might very well assume he was a hunter. Then again, she might assume he's had experience in killing people, which wouldn't be too far from the mark.

KATE
She just watched him silently for a moment before giving a small nod as she handed the gun over. It just had to be done. The marshal was suffering and Jack wasn't willing to put an end to it. There was nothing they could do. Help hadn't arrived and she was losing hope that it would anytime soon.
"Let me just have a minute with him. Talk to him about it, see what he wants, if he has any messages he wants to leave for loved ones." She trailed off, not really sure what to say and without another word, she stood up and started heading to the tent.
Kate had to talk to Jack in order to get in to see the marshal. It was the only way this could be done.

SAWYER
Sawyer took the gun without hesitating. He finally had it back. When Kate left, he popped out the magazine and checked how many rounds were left. About five. He slid the cartridge back into the gun and then checked the chamber. One round there. Luckily, the safety was on, because he wouldn't want the gun to go off accidently. He tucked the gun in the back of his jeans and waited for Kate to get out of the tent.

KATE
**looks out of Jack's shelter toward Sawyer**
Kate looked out of the tent flap at Sawyer giving him the signal they'd agree on for when she was ready for him to do what had to be done.

SAWYER
He looked over at the doc's tent in time to see Kate peek her head and give him the OK to come over. He sauntered over there, looking like he didn't have a care in the world.

KATE ***enters from F3 - Camp - Jack's Shelter*** Kate walked out of the marshal's tent. She heard someone shout her name and automatically turned toward it, facing Jack with an expression of sorrow. ****THE SOUND OF A GUN SHOT RINGS THROUGHOUT THE CAMP*** She didn't flinch, just looked at Jack for a moment longer, turned, and slowly walked away. She wasn't sure where exactly she was going and it didn't matter as long as it was far from here.
