Butchie Yost (aka Mitchell Yost, Jr.) is a former surfing star, known in his glory days as "the Beast". He's now addicted to heroin, and lives in room F of the rundown Snug Harbor Motel. He has a son, Shaun, who lives with Butchie's parents, Mitch and Cissy.
In the first episode, Butchie befriends John Monad, and strange things start happening in his life.
In "His Visit: Day Two Continued" we learn that Butchie has mysterious implants in his head that overheated during Kai's vision.
HBO Character Description[]
|
Much like his father, Butchie rocketed to stardom, only to promptly leave his glory days behind him. The same rebellious image that bought Butchie fame on the circuit - and lined the pockets of his agent, Linc Stark - eventually landed the surfing icon at the bottom of the heap. Now squatting at the Snug Harbor Motel and feeding a smack addiction, Butchie has little to show for his gifts besides a faded poster on the wall and a talented son named Shaun.
