13. Hearts And Minds.
Boone flashbacks: Boone flies to Sydney to rescue Shannon from an abusive boyfriend. We discover Boone and Shannon are siblings by marriage, not blood. The police won't help so Boone offers to pay the boyfriend off. When Boone goes to take Shannon home, he finds she had set the whole thing up... But she then gets played herself, as the boyfriend runs off with the money. She finds Boone at the hotel and tells him she knows he's always been in love with her. She kisses him and they spend the night together. The next morning she wants them to be just siblings again.

Boone warns Sayid to stay away from his sister. Sayid is completely impassive.
Locke and Boone have uncovered more of the metal object, a hatch in the floor with a tiny window. When Boone decides he's going to tell Shannon about it, Locke knocks him out.
Hurley's digestion is suffering, so Jack suggests he needs protein and should learn to fish from Jin. Hurley then steps on an urchin in the sea, but Jin won't pee on him, giving him a remedy instead, but it makes him vomit. Jin then gives Hurley an already-gutted fish.
Kate discovers Sun speaks English while they're creating a garden. Sun begs her to keep it a secret, saying only Michael knows, but Jin mustn't.
Sayid tells Jack he thinks Locke's compass is defective, as it says north is somewhere it can't be.
Charlie tells Jack that John Locke would be the one, of any of them, to save them all.
Boone awakes tied up, Locke medicates his wound and leaves him a knife. He hears Shannon cry for help and the monster approaches. He frees himself, then finds Shannon tied to a tree. He frees her and they hide in a tree while the monster tries to get in. They escape, only to be chased again when he tells her about the hatch. She falls behind and gets picked up by the monster. Boone follows a blood trail to her dead body. He gets back to the camp and attacks Locke for causing this, only to find Shannon alive and well, with Sayid. Locke tells Boone he gave him the island experience he needed. Boone suspects the medication Locke put on his head wound. Boone says he felt relieved when he thought Shannon was dead. Locke tells him it means it was "time to let go".

Over dinner, he tells him Charlie and Liam haven't spoken in over a year, so Drive Shaft looks over. He accepts a job with Lucy's father's paper company, but the drug dealer gets impatient, saying he just wants Charlie to bring him valuables to sell. He'll withold drugs until then. Charlie steals a silver cigarette case that used to belong to Churchill. The first day does not go well as withdrawal kicks in. Charlie is sick, and is hospitalised. He tries to apologise to Lucy, but she has now discovered his addiction and theft. She refuses to accept his apology, and says he'll never take care of anyone.

16. Outlaws.
Sawyer flashbacks: As a child, Sawyer hides under the bed as his mother is shot by his father, who then sits on the bed and shoots himself. Years later, a former friend, Hibbs, turns up to tell Sawyer he knows the whereabouts of the man responsible, the real Sawyer. He heads to Australia and buys a black market gun, with bullets designed specifically to kill. Sawyer- named James- meets the real Sawyer, now called Frank. He pulls out his gun, but chickens out and heads for a bar, where he meets an American man we know to be Christian Shepherd. He says he's proud and grateful of what his son did, but is too weak to tell him. He persuades Sawyer/James to go back, and he kills Frank- except it turns out he's not the real Sawyer, he simply owes Hibbs money. His dying words are "it'll come back around".

Jack returns the guns to the case and hides it. Kate offers to get Sawyer's gun too, but Jack doesn't want Kate owing Sawyer.
Sawyer is woken by a boar in his tent. It runs off with his tarpaulin so he chases it into the jungle, but stops when he hears the whispers say "it'll come back around". He asks Sayid what he heard them say at Rousseau's cabin, but denies hearing anything himself. He finds his tarp but the boar attacks him again. Sawyer swears revenge. Kate helps him. They bond over the drinking game, "I never". We learn that Kate was married and they've both killed a man. They wake up to find Sawyer's stuff all over the place. Kate's hasn't been touched. Locke turns up at their camp and tells them a story about how his dead sister was replaced by a dog. When Sawyer catches up with the boar, he points a gun at it, then backs down.
Hurley tells Sayid that he is worried about Charlie, wondering if he has post-traumatic stress from killing someone. Sayid later empathises with Charlie, telling him "you're not alone, so don't pretend to be".
Claire says she has started dreaming her memories back. She watches Michael build his raft and goes for a walk with Charlie.
Sawyer returns his gun to Jack, and recognises something Jack says. He realised the man at the bar in Australia was talking about Jack.

More unanswered mysteries:
1. Was Ethan authorised to kill, or did he go rogue?
2. What's the deal with Walt's specialness?
3. Why do they want Claire? We know about their fertility research, but why this approach? And why is there a fertility problem?
4. How does Locke know how to give Boone his "experience"?
5. What happened to Claire? Why the amnesia?
6. Again with the whispers... Are they people's own conscience?
7. Was the boar after Sawyer? Was the island sending him a message?
