Why would Charlie say to Shannon, "There are no others" when he himself was captured by one of them?????
Why did Shannon say that looking after Vincent was the only thing anyone ever asked her to do. Sayid asked her to help him translate the French stuff on the papers he took from the Danielle.
1. Charlie was kidnapped by Ethan. Ethan isn't neccessarily an other or any of those pirate wishperers so yea
2. I think she meant that it was the first responsibility she had ever had to do. Translating the French papers was more of a choice on her part, now shes responsible for Vincent
Charlie has had no proof that Ethan was an 'other' - he never heard the whispers, either. That's why I think Sayid didn't agree with Charlie when he told the crowd at the caves that there are no 'others' - Sayid has heard the whispers, so he is still suspicious.
Of course, Ethan's name, Ethan Rom, is an anagram for "Other Man", so there's a good chance he was an Other. That and Tom Cruise's cousin. Hard to tell which fact is scarier.

But there're two kinds of Others nevertheless... The Others, as in the evil Walt-snatching ones... and the *other* others, like Rouseeau and Desmond...
theres no doubt in my mind that Ethan id an other...
Ethan was super strong, and even Jack and Locke were beatin down by him, and he would've killed all of them if they hadn't had guns, so theres no way a pregnant Claire could escape him... unless DAnielle kidnapped her from Ethan (for entirely different reasons) and Claire escaped from HER...
has anyone seen Along Came a Spider?? kinda along those lines...
Ethan is as other as they come, babies! I thought Charlie's comments and the vehemence of same were strikingly puzzling, too. The way I explained it to myself was that, well, okay, he thinks Danielle is bloody NUTS and is convinced that she lit the fire and created the black smoke herself as a way to clear the camp and get a clear shot at Claire's baby, Aaron. Charlie is still so upset with Danielle snatching Turniphead (Aaron), that he reacted passionately like that, saying "there are no others!", meaning, "there are no others coming tonight, it was all a trick by Danielle, clue in, people!" He was frustrated that everyone seemed so panicked when, in his mind, it was all a ruse staged by Danielle. Soooo...he might not have really meant that there are no others, period, just that there are no others coming to get us TONIGHT.
Still...it did strike me as oddly adament or something, the way he reacted. It was like, chill, Charlie. First time I ever was on Shannon's side about anything *lol*, as I agreed with her when she said "You can't know that!" U go, girl!
