It was a good episode, wasn't it? Maybe I was just PMSing but it made me cry, and I don't even like Charlie that much! It was just well done.
Mmm, I'm not giving up yet on the idea that the Others are in some way good. Their tactics are doubtful at best and they certainly seem horribly evil but without knowing how the entire Others/Hostiles/Dharma thing actually came to pass I'm not sure we'll understand the Others completely. We don't know how the Others arrived on the island, why they clashed with Dharma and what Dharma was actually doing.
If the Dharma initiative turns out to be spectacularly evil it could well be that the Others were somehow fighting back the best they could... just by really terrible means. Not sure why they continue to use them on the Lostaways but I'm willing to reserve judgement until we know the whole story.
