  4. What is the "incident?" The "incident" was a leak of electromagnetic material from the Swan.
  5. Why does Desmond have to enter the numbers into the computer? Entering the numbers and pushing the button releases electromagnetic material that builds up in the Swan.
  6. What's behind the door marked with the Dharma symbol? Nothing, just a stone wall.

  8. What is the log in the Pearl a log of? The Pearl log is a log of the times the button was pushed.
  9. Did Henry push the button? He had to, a system failure was never experienced.
  10. Why did the plane crash, and why did it rip apart? Desmond's failure to push the button most likely interfered with the plane's mechanisms (electromagnetic interference), and that plus the turbulence caused it to rip apart.
  11. What is "Zeke's" real name? Zeke's true name is Tom.
  12. Is the Swan really just a test? No, the Swan is not a test. The button must be pushed to release electromagnetic buildup.
