Okay, so correct me if I'm wrong, but Ben (or some Other, but I think it's Ben) has a tumor in his spine, and they need Jack to fix it, and only he can?
Yes they are.
I think the tumor is in Ben's spine and that he already knows it is. Remember when Ben told Jack he would need to do something for the Others and he could go home, it's probably the surgery. And here I was thinking it was gonna be killing someone or something.

I think that the flashback developed Sawyer's character rather well, after all, in the end of the episode he wound up giving his cut of the money to his daughter Clementine and now we all know he's not a heartless bastard.
The preview for next weeks episode was AMAZING. Mullet mentioned an eye patch, to me it looked like tribal face paint on the guy who's standing right in front of the camera. Either way, it was creepy as hell and I can't wait for that episode.
I noticed that the plot is moving unbearably slow, but relationships are developing quickly. Sawyer+Kate's relationship has moved forward alot more in these 4 episodes than it did for the first two seasons, I think. I'm glad that Kate is finally making up her mind instead of going "I LOVE YOU JACK, LET'S HAVE A MILLION BABIES." and then five seconds later going "I LOVE YOU SAWYER, LET'S HAVE SEX ON THESE ROCKS AS I STEAL YOUR GUN."
Jin should die and Sun+Sayid should hook up <33
Also, did the whole thing with the two islands confuse anyone? Well, it didn't really confuse me, but it's importance did. Wow, two islands right beside eachother. :\ I speculate that the hatches connect these islands though, perhaps the Hydra is in the water in between the two islands?
And that whole pacemaker thing? What was the point!?! All it really did was show us (and the Others) that Sawyer cares about Kate, because he didn't tell her anything and didn't escape with her, and that Kate cares about him because she wouldn't leave without him. Big deal, we knew they liked eachother already.
The scene where Kate is having "Do you love him?" screamed at her was far less awesome than I expected, I was hoping it would be some dramatic torture scene like the previews led us to believe, not soem crappy "smack yo' face up" scene.
The two new random survivors = lame.
P.S. Boone is sexy kthnx.
