I think I agree with you Frosst... but I think I liked the episode overall more than you did.
The opening scene was great. It was really ballsy of them to give us all that insight into the Others' situation right away, without having to wait into the new season at all. I liked it a lot. One thing we learned was that the Others did not plan for or arrange the plane crash.... I've always wondered if the Others "brought" the survivors there... but now it looks like it was as much a surprise to them as it was to Jack and company.
But then the rest of the episode was nothing too special. You're on the money about there being no exposition. And what's even worse, there was plenty of oppotunity for it. I mean, why didn't Jack or Kate ask more questions of their captors? What did Kate and Henry/Ben talk about over their meal? They might not have gotten anything answered, but it seemed awkward that they didn't even try.
