Dakotadogy said:4. Where did the motor boat come from? And what about the gas to power it? These people have been trapped for almost 16 years. Yes, the boat was in rusty and worn condition, but where did it come from? The French lady and her party (of 6 right?) were marooned. But how did they become marooned? And, if this group has gas for their boat, why don't they use it to get off the island. Unless, they are part of the security system too!
Who ever said "the others" were marooned....if they were there when the French lady got there....they could have been there for a long time....it could be their native island.
