The pattern for this sequence is that the difference between one number and the next is four more than the difference between that number and the previous one.
For example:
8 - 2 = 6
18 - 8 = 10
32 - 18 = 14
50 - 32 = 18

So the sequence is:
2, 8, 18, 32, 50, 72, 98, 128, 162, 200, 242, 288, 338, 392, 450, 512, 578, 648, 722, 800, 882, 968, 1058, 1152, 1250, 1352, 1458, 1568, 1682, 1800, 1922, 2048, 2178, 2312, 2450, 2592, 2738, 2888, 3042, 3200, 3362, 3528, 3698, 3872, 4050, 4232, 4418, 4608, 4802, 5000, ...

So the 50th number in the sequence is 5000
