Me and my roommates asked the same thing...
As I see it, the best way to get out was to open the blast door, if that didn't work(and it didn't), then climbing through the vents would be the way to go.
Where did that image come from? You'll notice the constellations for each hatch on there. And a TON of other info.
My question is, why were the drawings on the blast door, instead of the walls?

So why didn't "Henry" take the real Henry's ID??? And how many of y'all think that the dad went back and took the extra money after all.
All in all, fab eppy. It was needed.

me and my roommate thought locke's dad took the money...
great show... i need more.
i did find it odd when the door was on locke's leg... henry stacked some weights under the door and suddenly the pressure was off of locke's leg. Unless i misunderstand physics... i'm pretty sure they would need to lift the door up a bit and slide an extra weight under the door to remove the pressure. but thats just me.

great episode and some good insight on here.
so did desmond draw that map on the wall only to be seen with a black light? or was it someone else?

What is odd is that the black light and the pen to write with had to already be in the hatch before the Desmond was there. The drawing may have been started by D.I.M.G. when the hatch was being built and added on by everyone else that has been in there.
Different Latin phrases from the map posted by SuperDave03:
1. Aegrescit Medendo
The disease worsens with the treatment. The remedy is worse than the disease.
2. Credo nos in fluctu eodem esse
I think we’re on the same wavelength.
3. Malum consilim quod mutari non potest
It’s a bad plan that can’t be changed.
4. Congito ero doleo
I think therefore I am depressed.
5. Hic sunt drecones
Here be dragons
6. Ut sit magna, tamen certe lenta ira deorum est
The wrath of the gods may be great, but it certainly is slow.

So, I got to thinking about how the lockdown happened. I think it coincided with the balloon drop. Maybe they needed to lock in whoever was in the hatch to prevent them from possible escape or attempting to make contact with whoever (or whatever) was dropping the balloons. That's my theory. But it's definite proof that whatever experiment is going on on the island is still very much alive.
And, the writers opened up major backstory potential on Jack with the whole cardshark/Thailand thing. Should be interesting.

the way it looked to me, the bolt on the bottom of the door was in locke's leg. they put the weights under the door to keep it from going even further in. The pressure was still there because locke couldn't get up until the door went up. Locke might have seemed relieved as though the pressure was released, but i think he was just relieved no additional pressure was added.
Great work, Ultra.
I'd like to know why Locke didn't brace the door with the weights before attempting to dive under it.
Surely the thought that the toolbox wasn't exactly robust entered his mind.
I know that before I dove under something that could potentially crush me, I'd make sure it was adequately supported.

Because it's a tv show.

Considering the fact that pressing the button on time seems to have consumed Locke's thought process, it doesn't seem unlikely that as soon as he saw an opening, he took it. Whereas Locke is normally very thoughtful, that button (and the fact that he feels the island is no longer talking to him) makes him act very impetuously.
Thanks for the complement SuperDave!
the lockdown/balloon drop made me think that the others want whoever is in the hatch to get locked down... so that they can restock the pantry from the balloon drop and whoever is in the hatch doesn't know how it gets in there... only that its magically delicious
Wow.
Some more translations:

That makes alot of sense. Although how do you make sure whoever is in the hatch is actually in the hatch at the Lock down point?

The blast door was the way outside. The vent only went over to the computer (I believe).
Oh, and this show rocks again. It was getting slow but last night was incredible.

I believe the equation for magnetic flux density is printed in the upper right portion of the octagon and can be seen on the negative print of the hatch drawing.

I have a similar thought process. I figured that whoever was in the hatch was probably trained that when that specific alarm went off they needed to go to the living quarters (it even gave a count down).
the only problem, it would seem that after 2 or 3 times of reporting to the living quarters only to be let out to find the pantry restocked, the people in the hatch would figure it out.

That's what I was thinking. Curiosity is a beyatch. I'm sure they always drop the supplies at the point of pressing the button.
I guess when it comes to the point of chosing whether to be outside the hatch at the drop or lockdown point or pressing the button to the previous (and current) occupants of the hatch it is so much a "life or death" situation to press the button that it keeps them inside.
Although the time frame given you can assume that they drop supplies at the latest once a month. But now there are a ****load of people in and out the hatch so you can track these guys. Do they not know of all the people on the island now?
Or is the supplies FOR the current people on the island.

Anyone notice that the writing on the door seems to go beyond the top of the door? How could it? I mean, conceivably, the writing all takes place during the periods that the doors are down. Then how is there writing going above the top? Oops, sorry, I guess because Locke didn't let the door all the way down. Disregard stupidity.
The suspected shutdown date in the upper right of that last picture is my birthday.
I wonder if the "Here be dragons" is just an easter egg reference to notes on one of maps in the Hobbit.

Sometimes it's better not to hit submit.
I thought of that Rudyjax. Not much of a thinker.
Funniest line of the night -
"Want me to get a ruler?"
LMAO!
"Want me to get a ruler?"

One thing I thought of last night- the supplies were dropped in by parachute but no one heard a plane? That seems odd.

"Here be dragons" is supposedly a phrase used on old maps to denote unchartered or rough terrority.
Cool.
