I still have a problem with the idea that Henry is the man Zeek was talking about in "Maternity leave."
If your the Others/Dharma and you have lost four people aleady to the Losties (all of them killed). You know whoever meets up with them alone next stands a great chance of being killed as well. You have warned them to stay away.
Do you then send in your BIG MAN. To be hung in a net for hours, shot with a crossbow, beatten to a pulp and locked in the gun room for days? Why take the risk of sending in someone that important? It just a bit hard to believe for me.

I agree with Dragonfly.

But what if Henry and the Others are hunting Rouseau? That would explain all the traps she set, why she booby-trapped her hideout after Sayidd got free.

And I have to add that the way Henry did that little senario about what he "would" have done if he had been one of the Others made me shiver. There was that "I know more than you guys do" kind of tone to it that Zeke had when he commented, "That's an interesting theory, Jack," before he told all the guys on his side to light up their torches (and didn't answer the question about having to spy on the Losties because there weren't enough of "Them").

im re-watching the episode now, and he doesnt say "three of them" he says "then they'd use them to trade for me".

...

Unless my copy of the episode has been altered

I think it's a possibility. Compared to Ethan and Goodwin, Henry seems much more calculating and manipulative. I could see him being in charge.

I was about to point it out but you beat me to it.

Still..why would gale even say that? And how does he know if there was more than one who went to find the baloon?

Maybe he assumed Ana-Lucia would take Sayid, seeing as Sayid's the one who beat him up because he didn't believe him...

He would assume that no one would travel that far alone with the Others lurking about. Anna told she would find the balloon if he drew the map and if it was there.

So...he just used the plural, no numbers, just more than one. He's talking to Jack and Locke, he's learned that they don't know about the map...they don't even know if anyone has gone to find the balloon.

I think Henry is just playing mind-games with them. Spread distrust through the Losties from within. If they're all divided in their loyalties, then it will be easy for Zeke and the Others to win.

Simple strategy, simple tactic. Like planting the mole in each group (the Losties and the Tailies) is a simple tactic.

Plus: They used different modes of attack on the two groups. Fear for the Tailies and just quiet spying on the Losties.

I think Zeke fears Jack and Locke more than he does Anna and Sayidd.

I also think Eko might have some connection with Dharma. His confession to Henry about the two Others that he killed ("I want you to know, it was a mistake"), might be a message to Henry that he (Eko) is another mole, and that would explain the disgusted look he gives Henry when Henry doesn't respond to his confession.

Does this sound plausible?

Is there a way out of the armory? We saw what looked like a hatch door on the floor. But it's crazy to think the losties missed that.
