That didn't really need to be two hours, you know? Not that much actually happened.
The abduction of Walt just made me sick, in that sort of good-TV way. Great stuff on the raft, with Jin and Michael and the watch, and Sawyer going after the rudder, and Jin going in after Sawyer.
The dynamite stuff was amusing for a few minutes, but two hours of them carefully handling dynamite, except when they were running the hell away? Eh.
Hurley's flashback cracked me up, as did "The numbers are bad! The numbers are bad!"
I loved poor doomed Artz in the security line at the airport, berating somebody for not taking their laptop out of their bag in a timely fashion.
Jin going in after Sawyer
Oh yeah, I meant to mention how much I loved that Jin didn't even hesitate after Sawyer got shot - just went right in after him.
Jin's arc has been pretty slow and rarely flashy, but it's really a beautiful thing. Plus, Daniel Dae Kim with that longer, curlier hair? Rrowr.

Hurley's freakout freaked

out. I was afraid he'd get blowed up.

Oh yeah, the scene in the airport restroom where he's told he's stuck in the "business" for life? Goes a long way towards explaining why he seemed especially freaked out and possessive early on after the crash.
Plus, Daniel Dae Kim with that longer, curlier hair? Rrowr.
I need to second that Rrowr.
My GF who is more than overly protective and paranoid about her 12 yo son couldn't sleep last night because she was so disturbed with the abduction of Walt.
Did anyone else think that the fact that the rudder fell off the instant Walt said, "She was wrong" about his mom not letting Michael see Walt meant that Walt wished they could stay on the island? 'Cause I couldn't figure out what they could have hit to make the rudder magically fall off with such force like that.
They hit a big ass log - you could see it in the water when Sawyer was retreiving the rudder.
Sawyer was just smoking hot in the last couple of eps. That Jack scene just about broke me. And then the pulled back hair, and the general lack of shirtiness? Jin and Sun, oh my god was that gorgeous. Vincent swimming out to the boat and then turning back also got me. And I still have chills from the Walt-taking.
The whole dynamite thing - eh. We have to leave right now or we'll never make it in time. Cool, so first we'll hang around for an hour, plus let's take Hurley and the middle-aged science teacher. What, Babymama and Rose had something better to do? Serious lack of urgency in that arc and it made it hard for me to get into it. Sill, "if we make it through this...we're going to have a Locke problem," was excellent.

I saw that, but it looked like a severed torso to me. Which is kind of creepy.
And by "log," we mean "any excuse to get Sawyer's shirt off while the sun's still up."
