Lost Watch

Episode 7 : The Moth

You know the spoiler drill by now.

We open on a sweaty and distracted Charlie, every inch the withdrawal picture book and surely only a man deep in the throws of withdrawal would feel cold enough to wear a hooded fleece in the jungle.

A spot of Kate, Jack and Sawyer bickering and a quick bit of boar chase action later and we're thrown into the flashback. As much as I like Charlie his flashes are the worst thanks to the cliche ridden depictions of England and his band Oasis, er I mean DriveShaft clearly. Quite think were they got the inspiration from at all. First up is Charlie playing the good catholic and confession his 'relations' with young ladies.

Back on the island Sayid has a plan to track down the French signal users sticks, taped together motherboards and bottle rockets (who knew fireworks smugglers though on such a small scale!) with the help of Kate and Boone the gormless he hopes to succeed. Elsewhere Locke tells Charlie he will give him his drugs back after he asks for them three times before discussion the wonder of the moth.

Feeling put upon and somewhat a loser Charlie flips out inside an unstable cave trapping Jack inside. Why he was in it in the first place isn't massively clear. Running to help dig Boone leaves Shannon in charge of his part of Sayid's grand scheme - is that a wise choice? At the excavation site Walt is impressed as his father takes charge and shows he has skills beyond moaning and gettin' beat on.

In En-ger-land Charlie is feeling pushed aside by his brother and feels it's no longer about the music. His revelation may ave something to do with the four or five half dressed girls hanging around in his brother's dressing room. Well it's probably the band's dressing room but the drummer and guitar player are nowhere to be seen as no-one cares about them in true Oasis style. After lamenting his brother for scoring excessively with drugs and women he becomes a junkie himself.

On the island Sawyer having run to tell Kate about the cave-in is put out when she starts being narky and decides not to tell her and just tag along to help with the sticks and rockets instead. After some verbal sparring he lets slip and is left to carry out the plan. So we now have Sawyer and Shannon in charge of two third of this. Will it work?

Having dug a hole in the cave system it's decided someone will have to climb in to free Jack and everyone's favourite ex-hobbit volunteers. A second cave-in then traps in him inside with Jack who play doctor and manages to deduce Charlie is in withdrawal. What a genius that man is.

Just as all looks lost a CGI Moth (following on from the CGI bees) guided the puffy eyed Charlie and the bruised doc to the surface and the pair come walking into the cave camp looking like a pair of guilty teenagers after missing curfew.

Kate demonstrates she isn't in love with the doctor by trying to squeeze the life out of the man.

Elsewhere Sun has begun to assert herself with Jin, who is still wearing half a pair of handcuffs and Sayid's plan is a total success after Sawyer and Shannon both bring it on home. As Sayid exclaims in joy he's smacked round the back of the head with a sturdy looking branch.

Finally Charlie asks Locke for his drugs for the third time and a sad Locke hands them over only to be beaming with pride seconds later as Charlies thrown them on the fire and everyone eats heroin smoked boar for dinner.

Not a great deal of lying this week apart from Sawyer's initial omissions and the keeping of Charlie's drug habit from the innocent hearted Hurley. The big mystery of the week being who clocked Sayid?
