The Lost running diary: 1.07

The Moth
For some reason Charlie the recovering drug addict looks WAY more creepy then the drug addict Charlie. Probably for obvious reasons, but still.

And creepy Locke, after using Charlie as bait, slits the boar's throat. Did I mention CREEPY?

Quick point: Boone, Shannon, and Claire were all missing from the last episode. That sort of thing happened a lot in the second season, but I don't think I noticed it in the first. Anyway, we've yet to see Claire in this episode as well, and I don't think we know if she's at the beach or the caves.

...Okay, I guess I haven't found a lot to write about this episode...

So Charlie emerges from a small hole at the top of his cocoon. That analogy was totally lost on me the first couple times I saw this episode.

For lack of anything to else to write about with this episode, I think I like Charlie's backstory the best of anyone else's. Not that I rejoice in his life falling to shit because of drugs, I just think it was well done I guess. My feeling is that the point of the backstory is that you don't blame him for his drug addiction, that you know he's deep down a good guy. And I think they accomplished that well.
