has on top a duffel covered in duct-tape. This is the only item he is shown retrieving so it must be the one he views as most critical to having quick access under current circumstances. At home he is shown starting to build one wall next to the barrel, which is sitting in a corner. He never opened it and it's not been seen since. People have supposed, but it is not shown, that he turns the corner and encases it. Which makes little sense as even a casual search would reveal a funny corner, unless he continued the wall all the way across just to hide that barrel. Since episode 107 mention the terrorists in NYC had a nuke in a drum, this leaves suspicion the drum holds a battlefield nuke. But as of episode 107 contents still unknown. Maybe he keeps all his collectable comic books in it? Most likely explanation is simply that this was the
Faraday cage container used to shield his electronics devices like the laptop from EMP effects. A common suggestion for storing small electronic devices to survive an EMP burst, is a metal safe or sealed 55-gallon drum. No grounding is required. --

too hazy right now to support anything more than speculation, well except that he's working very hard to keep things secret. Mentioning that there were a cache of M16/CAR15 hidden in his storage unit not in the barrel, and not taken with him would be an interesting detail to add though for sure! But basically, people initially speculated that the barrel contained M-16s, now they're saying it has a nuke, so honestly, I don't think anyone knows quite well what is in the barrel right now. (Presuming that the writers even know themselves... Watching the audio commentary of Lost, they went back and made the paralyzed guy paralyzed... when they made the pilot, that wasn't even on their mind.) --
268:
incorrect. Yes there are certain elements of this that feel like Lost, that the writers are jerking viewers around with excruciatingly teased-out mystery for perhaps no reason. Well except for selling soap and
Toughbooks that is. The Toughbook while quite rugged, is not particularly EMP-protected so far as I can tell, so I cannot support the statement to that effect on the main page. As I wrote previously, a 55-gallon drum is regarded as ideal and cheap for an EMP box. Or an ammo-can, or a safe. This is the simplest explanation for where all his electronic toys are stored when not in use. --
312:
preposterous for a long list of reason. Even during the hot part of the Cold War, nuclear weapons were never under the control of just one man. Any modern military personnel leaving a nuclear weapon in the care of a single agent seems preposterous, given the obvious concern they could go "Mad Major" and use it for their own ends. China? Come on they need
Americans to buy their goods in WalMarts. Of all possible explanations, attacks from China (or Russia) seem exceedingly unlikely. I'll stop there, further speculation in that vein seems off the topic. --
290:
in the middle of Kansas. This made somewhat more sense in
Germany during the Cold War. The US during the 1960's even fielded low-yield nuclear mortar and artillery rounds for such usage. I don't see it as a likely scenario. But I suppose some would think it reasonable, perhaps even the writers. Much more likely he's an intelligence officer with a backup capability to seed insurgency if needed, and the barrel held his field equipment that he is later using in the office he constructed, and the office wall was what he was starting construction on. --

hand, if this were China (well, first if it were China, the

so finding that by itself wouldn't have been cause of alarm for Jake. Finding the other four proved that something was seriously wrong, which led to Jake getting the real story from

Comparing this to the J.K. Rowling case is a huge, huge, huge stretch. Also note that I didn't simply revert. I restated it in a manner which showed the significance of these IDs. It was already known (and stated earlier in the article) that

I watched the 2 sections of
Fallout several times that show this drum. In the first scene, he brushes past a box that casually falls open showing rifles of the M16/CAR15 varity. Shouldn't you at least have a simple padlock on a box full of rifles? Anyhow, then you see him wheeling out the drum, which

Oh, as I edited out of earlier comments, an agent left behind would have an obvious use for a battlefield nuke. Assuming an enemy column were crossing near his path he could place the nuke as a mine and destroy them. This seems an implausible military tactic for a long list of reasons, particularly

lol, quite a read going through your revisions of this ;) Unfortunately, anything that people have proposed for Robert being just don't fall into line. If he is a bad guy, why help the city? If he has a nuke, why? I agree that there is a lot of suspicion surrounding
Hawkins, but everything just

It does make more sense, but again remember your previous edits, where you said that if these bombs were from terrorists, that it has little reason to believe that a left-behind operative would have use for such a weapon, as there are no massive groups of enemy combatants to blow up. On the other

I just mentioned a nuke as an obvious possibility since others had already trotted it past me, not a likely one. The only reason it even came up is the NYC incident mentions a "drum" and here we have a mysterious guy handling another drum. I mention it mainly to dispose of the idea, it's
