Before the crash
Prior to boarding Flight 815, Craig paused briefly by a set of doors at the Sydney Airport as Sun was deciding whether or not to go through with her plan to leave her husband. ("House of the Rising Sun")
Later, he was waiting in the same line for the metal detector as Dr. Arzt when Hurley tried to cut to the front of the line. ("Exodus, Part 2")
On the Island
Season 1 (Days 1-44)
Craig is present for many occurrences on the beach. Craig was assisted directly after the crash by another passenger, and joined others that night to hear the roars and sounds of the Monster emanating from within the jungle. ("Pilot, Part 1")
Craig proved himself helpful during the first days after the crash by helping Claire and other survivors sort wallets and other possession which were strewn across the beach. Later he was present at the funeral for crash victims. ("Walkabout")
Craig helped his fellow survivors gather the luggage that was drifting into the water when it was floating into the ocean when the tide suddenly shifted. Craig joined the camp that night as they moved down the camp to their new home. ("Whatever the Case May Be")
Craig was recruited by Jack to join him and several other survivors in assisting in the quickened construction of the raft. Craig along with all those around him at the raft saw the Black Smoke coming from across the island, signaling the approach of The Others. Before the launching of the raft, Craig wrote a letter and gave it to Charlie to put in the message bottle. Craig later headed to the caves. ("Exodus, Part 1")
Season 2 (Days 46-67)
Craig was hanging out with fellow survivor Steve at the beach on the day that Hurley passed out the food from the hatch to the group. Craig would join his fellow survivors in the partaking of the food that night, and thanked Hurley for doing what he did. ("Everybody Hates Hugo")
Craig also joins his fellow survivors on the beach to welcome the return of Jin, and the new additions of Bernard and Libby when they arrived after walking from the other side of the island. ("Collision")
When Bernard set out to construct his S.O.S. sign, Craig was speaking with Richard and Jerome when he was chosen by Bernard to help. Craig later opted not to help, and did not return to pitch in. ("S.O.S.")
Craig was one of the many people on the beach when Desmond's sailboat was spotted. During the discharge, Craig held his ears and later helped clean up the mess from the discharge. ("Live Together, Die Alone")
Season 3 (Days 77-91)
When Jin found a ping-pong table, he assisted in carrying it out to the beach and later watched with amusement as Hurley beat Sawyer in a game that resulted in Sawyer being unable to refer to anyone by a nickname for one week. ("Enter 77")
He attended the funeral of Nikki and Paulo four days later. ("Exposé")
When it was discovered that the Others were planning to raid the camp, Craig joined his fellow survivors in preparing to leave for the radio tower. Shortly before leaving Jack checked to make sure that Craig had enough water. Later he is seen walking to the radio tower. ("Greatest Hits") ("Through the Looking Glass")
Season 4 (Days 91-99)
When the factions separate, Craig chooses to join Jack's group back to the beach. ("The Beginning of the End")
A week later Craig watch Rose and Bernard arguing with Daniel and Charlotte. The bickering is interrupted by Jack, who needs emergency surgery to remove his infected appendix. Craig listens to Juliet when she tells the group to prep a sterile environment for the surgery. ("Something Nice Back Home")
Notes
Although it may be deduced from the transcript dialog ("S.O.S.") that this character's name is "Craig", this labeling of this specific background actor (Chris Candella) was almost certainly not a decision of the writers or casting and therefore any narrative of this background character's biography is primarily a fan-creation.
- The name "Craig" is mentioned in the S.O.S. transcript by Bernard on both the United States closed captioning, as well as on the DVD subtitles:
| “ | ” |
- In the scene Bernard calls out to Craig, Richard, and Jerome, the three background extras he's speaking to each respond individually to a different name. Background actors Chris Candella and Bryan Sato each respond to Craig and Richard, respectively.
Trivia
- Craig is incorrectly named Greg on some fan sites.
