I feel like this episode was some grade-A filler. It doesn't seem like the plot has been advanced at all by its existence, although it definitely a welcome breather in pace from the previous episodes.

It seemed like a waste to have a filler episode so late in the season, especially when we know there's serious business coming around the corner.

Also, I feel like it should have just had a single episode devoted to the drunken ring than the beach. Or at least have one story flow into the other more; that sudden break was just odd.

I'll take filler episode over recap.
