Logan is an outside agent for CRM (helicopter people) like Jadis was. Only instead of trading people he has been tasked with finding a oil/gas supply. In the end that group will still be the connecting point between the series. With season 6 ending with Morgan and whomever else survives ending up meeting Rick.

Logan said "this is bigger than us" which sounds a lot like what Al's girlfriend said to her. At the end of this episode Logan says something to the effect of the tapes being the key to the promise land. Of course he could be referencing the oil fields, but he could also be talking about acceptance into the helicopter location by providing them with oil.

EDIT: Logan says "we're about to buy ourselves a ticket to the promise land" in the preview for the next episode. Not the vault scene.

I'm trying to make sense of this season, so far it's just a bunch of one-off rescue attempts. There must be some point to all of this.

 

That's fair. Lol

I'm really trying to justify this entire mess. I try to look at this thing from AMC's point of view. I mean viewers are dropping off and every social media account and every article written about the show trashes everything. Read the replies to the FTWD Twitter account, almost every one is shitting all over the show. Yet there they were at comicon doubling down on the show by announcing a 6th season.

I find it hard to believe that the people paying the bills for this show are unaware of how people feel about the show. So somewhere at AMC they must have a plan on where it's all going. It must be tied to the larger story in the movies and main show, otherwise I can't imagine why they would allow this to continue.

All last season I kept saying "They must be building towards something big". Yet that never happened, so here I am again assuming that AMC isn't simply standing by and letting these two ass clowns keep puking on the screen and calling it a story without stepping in and making a change. Unless they have a bigger picture in mind.
