Lost, Episode 7 - The Moth

So, last night we had Charlie's background story which I thought was a little dull to tell truth. I expected more debauchery from Merry the Hobbit and maybe a bit more hot tub action but that's by the by as his character is really starting to shine out there on the island, and I love the homo-erotic bonding with Dr. Fox. (Maybe I made up the homo-erotic part but it is my homage to the other LOTR homo-love in, you know the one I'm talkin' 'bout, Willis...)

Ahem.

Anyway, Kate got a bit frantic when she thought the Doc had been squished when the cave caved in and proved that she seems to be the only one (apart from Old Man Locke) with any balls when she shoved Mercutio (pathetic!) out of the way and started digging them out (Charlie being in there too, you see).

You can totally buy the fact that Kate has so many men falling for her on the island 'cos she's gorgeous, feisty and mysterious all rolled into one, plus she looks good in a sweaty vest.

Sawyer walked around with his shirt off for a bit and bickered with Kate so their sexual tension is hotting up nicely and next week we get to learn more about the sexy little tyke! Grrrr

Sayid got attacked in the woods and obviously your first instinct is to think maybe it was Sawyer ('cos they have a little hate-hate thing bubbling) but my magazine spoiled it by saying he was not attacked by a fellow survivor or an irate Polar Bear, so that opens up a whole new can of worms...

Great episode and can't wait until next week!

*** PLOT SPOILER ***

Episode 7 - The Moth

Charlie, suffering the pangs of withdrawal, begs Locke to return his drugs. Locke refuses - but explains that if Charlie asks three times then he'll return his drugs. This is the first time...

Back on the beach, Sayid has come up with a plan to get a fix on the French broadcast signal. But he needs a battery for the transceiver. Can Kate persuade Sawyer to contribute a battery from his hoard of supplies?

Meanwhile, Jack and Hurley continue to move bags from the beach to the caves. Charlie offers to help, but Jack catches him attempting to pocket some pills and sends him away.

In the cave, Charlie confronts Jack, ranting and raving in fury. Suddenly, the cave walls start to collapse, sending rocks and dirt everywhere. Charlie escapes, but Jack is trapped inside!

Everyone joins in a desperate scramble to clear the rockslide, until Michael takes over. He stops the frenzied scrabbling and coordinates the rescue dig.

Charlie goes in search of Locke, ostensibly to tell him about Jack, but Locke sees right through him - he just wants his drugs. Locke goes on to remind Charlie that if he asks one more time, the drugs will be his...

At the caves, Michael informs the group that someone small will have to go in after Jack. Charlie emerges from the woods and volunteers...

In the jungle, Sayid makes final preparations to receive the signal, but is in for an unwelcome surprise. It seems that someone or something doesn't want them to get off the island...
