We're coming up on the 100th episode of "Lost," and as such, I wanted to do something special. Unfortunately, I couldn't get Baz Lurhmann to help me stage a $150 million version of "South by South Pacific." Nor could I get Morgan Freeman to narrate the audiobook version of the "We Have to Go Back" gallery. So I had to come up with a less expensive way to honor the first 99 episodes of the show.

In the wake of last week's episode, "Lost" fans didn't want to know what lay in the shadow of the statue, or why Miles could hear dead people, or why the Dharma Initiative built the Swan in secret. Nope: they wanted to know more about Hurley's "improved" script for "The Empire Strikes Back." And luckily for you, I got an exclusive hold of said script. It took a bit of doing, but I like to go the extra mile for my readers. So sit back and enjoy Hurley's take on a cinematic masterpiece.
