When I heard the explosion of the hatch being opened from outside it suddenly clicked for me. I figured that this guy had a huge underground living complex and had been down there for several decades. It seemed to me that it would require an awful lot of money to have a huge underground bunker built on a deserted island in secret and have it sumptously furnished and stocked with near limitless food supplies, technology and electricity. Suddenly it occured to me that this guy with the hatch with the numbers written on the outside must be like Hurley; a guy who made it rich with the numbers but became an equal menace to everyone around him. I figured he'd used his wealth to buy a deserted island, have the bunker built and stocked with supplies and then shut himself inside to keep the rest of the world safe. That's why I'd figured he'd inscribed the word "quarantine" on the inside of the hatch and hadn't had a ladder that led back up to it.It made perfect sense until it was revealed the guy was Desmond; a guy Jack had met in the states just a few years earlier. Now I don't really get it... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /></blockquote>
