Damon Lindelof shares a transcript  where “Abe” (Abraham) is being questioned for his willingness to kill and then burn his son, Isaac. The same sequence of questions and answers is repeated ninety times, each time with Abraham saying he was willing to kill his son because God said so and ultimately because of his fear of God. He is ultimately given a psychosis diagnosis, medication and is told that he needs to limit interaction with his family, specifically his son.
