Okay, we didn't learn anything new in this episode, and the plot didn't move forward at all. Bah.
That said, I think that this season, Locke has been incrementally becoming more and more of a hardass, and this episode did highlight that. Most notable was the ending, with the cross-cutting the scenes of the baptism (Eko = priestly prophet dude) and the scenes of Locke hiding the statues (Locke = secretive manipulative dude). I feel like we're headed for a Locke-Eko showdown at some point.
Other stuff: when Hurley asked Libby "Do I know you from somewhere?" it finally hit me -- Hurley was in a psych. hospital, and Libby is a psychiatrist (or psychologist or therapist -- some sort of mental health professional). I got the feeling that there was more than just him stepping on her foot as he boarded the plane, and I'll bet it's the psych. hospital connection.
And finally: anyone else wonder where in the hell Hatch!Dude (Desmond?) is? Maybe he hooked up with Crazy French Chick.

Ohhhhh. Tep = smart.
Desmond and Rousseau are on the other other side of the island, at the hotel having daquiris.
Dear Charlie, Get The Fuck Over Yourself. Love, Island.
Yeah, Charlie is a moron and Liam is a dick. That's about all I got out of this episode.
Interesting that Locke considers the Holy!heroin Mary statues to be weapons.

So they really are modelled on Oasis, aren't they?

Notice also that he changed the combination again, since a couple of people found out what it was last episode.

That's what I'm figuring. By now, Michael's probably there, too, organizing a windsurfing competition.
Locke didn't destroy the statues. I find that odd. I suppose he could be keeping them for their medicinal value, but I doubt it, somehow.
Yes, likely for another Charlie whinge-fest.
2 excellent things that happened in this episode:
1) Eko's response to why he was marking the trees : "these are the ones I like." I don't know what he's up to, but I still loves him. Even with all the baptism stuff.
2) Charlie gets punched THREE TIMES! ANd then a needle in his face! And many, many people told him to shut it.
So, yeah, Jack ep last week, Charlie ep this week, excuse me while I...
t yawn
t scratch myself in a bored fashion

At least stuff HAPPENED on the island in last week's episode between the flashback reminders of "gee, think Jack's got a God complex/control issues?"
Locke's step up in violent badassery both in words and action was interesting. He was sort of boring me for a while there, too. Not because his actions were subtle, but because he was pretty blank for a while.
If Charlie went off the deep end and kind of evil, then that could be better than his constant whining.
Yeah, so did anything HAPPEN? Were the hallucinations heroin-induced or island-induced? Did they mean ANYTHING? (besides the opportunity for Christian theologizin') Was Charlie using? Did....zzzzzzzzzzzzz
t wakes up with a start
Oh, Ana-Lucia? If you ever make Jack say "hittin' that" AGAIN I will die trying to kick your ass.
I'm just hoping that now that we have Jack and Charlie back stories out of theway for now, maybe some other, more interesting characters might be highlighted. For a few weeks anyway.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I am so done with Charlie, I don't know what to do.
1) Eko's response to why he was marking the trees : "these are the ones I like." I don't know what he's up to, but I still loves him. Even with all the baptism stuff.
That, to me, was the saddest thing about the fire -- it destroyed all those trees.

Damn skippy!
