I guess the "Hearts" of this episode are Sayid and Shannon while the "Minds" are Locke and Boone. With the focus on Boone and Shannon we get to see what Sayid and Locke are up to which is cool since they are two guys who are trying to find out more about the island.
Sayid discovers or surmises that there might be some sort of magnetic field that is throwing off his compass which is cool because there is something throwing off his compass, he just doesn't know it yet.
Locke and Boone go back to the hatch and we see that they have cleared a good section of dirt off of it and they can't figure out how to open it. Locke tells a pretty cool story about Michaelangelo, but that's about it for the good parts of the episode.
The meat of the episode focuses on Boone and Shannon pre-island and how Shannon plays him and Boone is a little bitch about it. He does get to have sex with her, but even that is awkward after the fact. On island Boone hallucinates thanks to John applying some sort of concoction to Boone's head. In his hallucination Shannon dies and Boon realizes that he is relived. Now after said realization, John deems his ready to move on and concentrate on their task at hand, which is figuring out how to open the hatch since John has deemed it high priority.
Interesting tidbits: Claire is STILL missing and NO one is looking for her. (I think Walt has been in more episodes than Claire. LOL! ) Everyone is pretty much operating their own agenda and while I understand the trail is cold, I would think they would attempt a search party like Jack said they would. What made me think of Claire is Charlie's line about him having faith in John to save them all. When if his faith is so high for Locke, then go talk to him while he's just hanging out on the beach and ask him to help you out. I digress.
I'm looking forward to more hatch happenings. :)
