I mean, the Charles plot was thematically pretty appropriate, since it touched upon two of the key themes of Code Geass: the "wearing of masks" that disguises our true motivations (even unconsciously - Suzaku thinks he's doing noble, heroic things, but he really just has an incredible death wish; Lelouch thinks he's acting as a great revolutionary leader when he's really just out for revenge; etc.) and the conflict that results from it (the key conflict in the series really being Lelouch and Suzaku finding themselves completely unable to understand why the other would try to change things in their particular way). The problem is that there's maybe four or five characters who actually directly interact with it, and it's not seamlessly woven in. It keeps stumbling in like a drunken uncle to remind you that it's theree.
