A transcript is a retrospective written record of dialogue, and like a script (a prospective record) may include other scene information such as props or actions. In the case of a transcript of a film or television episode, ideally it is a verbatim record. Because closed-captioning is usually written separately, its text may have errors and does not necessarily reflect the true Canonical transcript.
Please note that many episode scripts for earlier Lost seasons were transcribed by Lost-TV member Spooky with aid of DVR, and at times, closed captions for clarification. She and Lost-TV have generously granted us permission to share/host these transcripts at Lostpedia for the betterment of fans. Unless otherwise stated below, she created this transcript.

[Opening Lost Theme]
Kris White: Welcome to a special edition of the Official Lost Podcast. Today we join writers Javier Grillo-Marxuach and Leonard Dick for their full episode commentary on "Collision". Which aired Wednesday November 23rd. This podcast can be enjoyed synced up with the episode or as a stand alone treat. Either way, enjoy.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: Alright hi! Im Javier Grillo-Marxuach and im writing and supervising producer of Lost and im here with..
Leonard Dick: Leonard Dick. Also a writing and supervising producer on Lost.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: ..And this is sort of a special podcast because your actually going to watch the episode "Collision" along with us and we are going to comment on things that are going on and, perhaps later it will deteriorate into complete anarchy. But before we do that happy Thankgiving.
Leonard Dick: Or as we in my native Canada call it - Thursday.
[Laughter]
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: And because your watching the episode along with us, we are actually going to start at the time the episode starts. So, im going to ask you to push pause, and start the podcast when the episode begins. So let's pause the podcast right now and begin when the episode starts.
[Long pause]
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: We are just waiting for it to begin, because it hasn't started yet.. This is all gonna be edited out right? Can I just pick my nose? It's gross. It's horrible. So previously on lost, Jack meets Ana-Lucia at a bar in a seedy airport in Sydney. We are just watching a couple of scenes from previous episodes, it's very exciting. I did not write this episode, nor did Leonard so we really don't have a whole lot to say about it, do we Leonard?
Leonard Dick: Other than, it's nice to see someone from introducing season one back in season two.
[Laughter]
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: That's true. Yeah it's kind of a thing we did with Ana-Lucia was we kind of wanted to shock and stun the audience by having a character from one of the flash backs appear on the Island in the middle of season two, so that was a decision that was made pretty early in season one to bring her into the show, and to make it seem as regular, oh oh, Shannon's been shot, oh that's bad. Sorry about that, it's just so shocking even watching it now, isn't it Leonard?
Leonard Dick: Yeah, too many people were invested in her and to see her die was quite hard to watch.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: Yeah, and it's hard to part with Maggie Grace whose a fantastic actor and we love having her on the show and all that. So it was a creative decision that was rather difficult to do. So the previously on has just ended, and we have Ana-Lucia shooting.. Leonard this was one of yours.
Leonard Dick: Yep we thought it would be interesting to have Ana-Lucia do exactly what we've seen her do on the Island and that it would be a very cool striking visual to start.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: Also her grouping of shots is really quite impressive. I don't know did she actually do her own shooting on this thing?
Leonard Dick: I don't really believe so.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: Really? Oh wow.
Leonard Dick: But she is good.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach: Well you just shattered my universe.
Leonard Dick: This is Rick Overton who is playing the psychiatrist which I thought was a good casting find. Rick, we wanted somebody who was tough enough to hang in there with Ana-Lucia, a psychiatrist that she wouldn't be able to push over and Rick who i've worked before I think was a really good piece of casting.
