Ben tells Locke that Anthony Cooper is there because Locke brought him there, but Locke says he didn't. Ben says they are leaving and would Locke like to come with them? With little hesitation, Locke says yes.
At their new camp, Ben shows Locke that he can now walk, with only the help of a cane. He tells Locke it's because of him. He also says that Juliet has been doing research at the beach, figuring out which women are pregnant. Once they know, they will go in and take them.
Ben points out Anthony tied to a pole and tells Locke that in order to be free, he must kill his father.
At night, as people gather, Ben tells Locke it's time to kill his father. He gives Locke a knife and tells him not to think, just do it.
Anthony says that Locke is spineless and wants his daddy and will never do it.
Locke says he can't do it and Ben apologizes to those standing around, saying that Locke is not who they thought he was.
Later, Richard Alpert tells Locke that he is special and Ben doesn't want his people to think Locke is special, so he purposely embarrassed him in front of everyone. He tells Locke to get someone else to kill his father and hands him Sawyer's file.
