I'm beginning to realize many folk have zero patience, every episode can't be something groundbreaking and thrilling, they are clearly setting up characters and groundwork for potentially more major arcs down the road.
This is literally only the 5th episode of a 16-episode season. This isn't new to Star Wars either, seems like people are just being real antsy cause this series is weekly. Clone Wars wasn't exactly hot off the bat either. That said, this episodes like the past two is somewhat average, but it is evident they are continuously introducing characters and events that are most likely to be recurring for what are likely going to more major conflicts for the Batch later.
