Sibling love

Did you people see LOST last night? OMG!

**If you haven't watched it yet and don't want a spoiler then move on**

It was a fabulous episode. Great way to kick off the 2nd part of the season!

I lvoed the fact that they focused on Eko last night. He's such a quiet character. But you can see there was turmoil behind those big eyes of his. NOW we know why! I can't believe that he saved his brother (aka sibling love) from being forced to murder that old man. I'm just amazed that stuff like THAT actually happens. That those bad guys felt it was okay for them to do that in front of all those people. That there was no repercussions for their act. Blows my mind!

And the fact that Eko's sacrifice led him to a life of violence. A life he didn't want. But ended up being immersed in it. The fact that his sacrifice also led his brother to go into the priesthood. Amazing how one event can create a channel for person's entire life. Makes you just contemplate every decisions....

What FREAKED me out was when Charlie was up in the tree and everything started to blow up. Why? Because that big bad black smoke was coming through the jungle. OH BOY! And the fact that Eko just stood there and stared it down? That man is such a bad ass!

"I am not afraid of it."

Good golly! He's got some brass ones. Or maybe he is so settled with his past and his present. So resolved in what he is that he's not afraid of anything. You think?

But I have to tell you that the Hubs and I were cracking up at Charlie.

"What're you going to do? Hit me with your Jesus stick?"

You just HAVE to love that Charlie with his comments. He's got a bunch of faults, but he's funny. Did you catch it though when he blamed his brother for his addiction to heroin? When Charlie was saying that I kept thinking to myself "...so if everyone else was jumping off a cliff...would you?"

But again. It's showing us the parallels about how siblings treat each other. How these two men and their relationships with their siblings have affected their lives. That one moment in Eko's life resulted in a life of violence, but then turned into a religious one (so a good end). Charlie's relationship with his brother resulted in a life of addiction (a bad end).

Did you also catch the googly eyes that Hurley was making at Libby? He-he-he....looks like we're seeing a possible blossoming relationship there! But Hurley is such a good guy. He deserves some love!

I can't wait for next week!!!!!
