Hear about the monster?

My sister says it lives on that island.
What's it look like?
Oh, it's big, and its claws can tear through anything.
Even bone?
ADAM: That's why no one goes there.
Well, how'd it get out there?
Yeah.
Uh, my sister didn't say.
It just came from underground and murdered people.

Underground?
The Loop.
It murdered them.
Who?
The people.
So they just left it there.
