I think maybe it's a parachute to drop supplies and stuff like that?
And whoever is dropping the supplies does not realize that Desmond (and his predecessors) have abandoned the hatch.

Hmmmmm.....

Some people speculate that Desmond (the guy who was in the hatch when Lock discovered it) got his food by "drops" arranged by the Dharma Initiative folks. A plane would fly overhead, and then drop the food. The red balloon wasn't a balloon -- it was a parachute.

I wonder if the "lockdown" occurs whenever there's a drop. Like, the DI people don't want the hatch-dwellers to see the planes that are making the drops. I'm sure they're (the planes) covered with those darn Dharma logos.

Freakin AWESOME episode last night! But, I was so worred that Locke wasn't going to be able to walk again.

I don't think they use planes to make the food drops though b/c if they did, wouldn't the people on the beach have heard the plane? Wouldn't they have gone to investigate? I think that perhaps something else (like the balloon) is used to make the drops.

Maybe it's an invisible plane, like what Wonder Woman had....
ha ha.

Actually a balloon dropping a parachute with supplies is a hella-smart idea.

I thought I heard Locke tell him "no matter what"...I could be wrong though (I'll go check my tape to see )

ETA: Okay, it was "The Other" who said that Locke needed to protect him "no matter what"...Locke asked opened the door and asked "who are you". The Other gave the Henry Gale story again, and then Locke said, "All right. You have my word."

I am happy to tell you that they showed this episode again on the weekend and so I caught the last 3 minutes that I missed.
YAY!
I feel much happier now!

OMG...you are funny. Yeah, he's pretty buggy-eyed, isn't he? I think pre-Golum's name was Schmiegel?

And also, LOL when Sawyer said "Maybe Said wants a job?" in reference to him opening a corner store.
I know that I am an evil person to find that funny, but I did.
