The sacrifice for the projector bulb shows just how different the kingdom is as opposed to the whisperers. Even during troubled times they sacrifice so much to make some children smile. whereas the whisperers are feeding the walkers babies.
it helps justify Connie and Henry's uneasy feelings and overall puts things into perspective.
Was very happy with this episode. Love it when they take the time to show these small moments. increases the realism and makes it relatable to the viewer.
All seasons have filler episodes. Hell breaking bad had an episode where all they did was hunt down a fly. Thats 40 minutes of trying to get a fly. its a great opportunity to give another directer a shot, thus introducing fresh directing and an insight into the smaller picture that would certainly get overlooked in a movie. Sure they can risk going wrong but this one was great.
