The Flame of Utter Boredom

charlie young was systematically neglected by the narrative and i mourn the version of the show where he had more of a substantive role. i think about the scene of the white house being locked down due to someone shooting at it and charlie outpacing multiple secret service agents to reassure himself that the president's safe at least once a day. i think about the fact that the previous shooting was motivated by his mere existence. the story didn't give him a lot of space to deal with that and, in fact, made it about his white girlfriend but i remember and i know dulé hill would have killed any scenes they would have given him.

the doctor told me aliens keep killing his companions so I asked how many companions he has and he says he just goes to earth and gets a new companion afterwards so i said it sounds like he's just feeding his companions to aliens and then he started crying
