It was quite melo but it worked. For a second I was afraid that Desmond would really take Charlie's place so it was a relief when Charlie hit him!
As for the Others, I don't know...it's quite difficult to interpret Ben's behaviour as good. It isn't only a matter of knowing their past history, until lately killing weren't their thing at all, and they even were quite judgemental towards the Losties (remember what Goodwin told Ana-Lucia !) and seemed really upset when Sun shot the girl. When Juliet killed it seemed very serious as well, there was a trial and all, and now we're supposed to believe that the end justifies the means for them, that Locke killing his father was indeed a test and considered a good thing for all of them and that they kinda made a genocide during Ben's youth? It's like they're slowly becoming the savages that we thought they were in season 1.
