"So, like, the hatch blew off your underwear?"
Hurley continues to the camp and discovers Desmond naked in the brush. Hurley gives him a shirt to wear and Desmond tells Hurley not to worry about Jack, Kate and Sawyer. That Locke said in his speech he would go after them. But Locke didn't give a speech. What's Desmond talking about?
