1. Nope, nothing I can think of would have changed if Emerson died in this episode. I like the fact he lived, though.

2. I was glad they finally killed off some of them, so I guess that would be: no, I didn't care any Delinquents were killed in the episode.

3. Because at that point, there was no need escalate the situation when they could simply take them one-by-one by force. They underestimated the Delinquents, basically.

4. We never found out what happened to Caspian and the rest. My guess is we never do find out and it can be assumed they died somewhere on their way back. We should be getting a map in the first episode, according to the writers.

5. They were looking for "technology" on the Sky People so they probably did this desert bandits thing often and managed to get a rocket launcher off of some previous unfortunate travelers. Who knows how long she was with her cart or how far off her brother was and if it was a planned set-up or if she really did break down and they took advantage of the situation to rob them. Maybe we'll find out more soon. :)

6. I thought Cage was referring to the failed assassination attempt against Clarke in the previous episode.

7. At the very least, it bought them more time to either find a permanent fix that didn't require Sky People bone marrow or make the necessary repairs to keep Mount Weather running for future generations as they continued searching for a solution (i.e. interbreeding with the Grounders like they had planned initially to do with the 48 or some sort of genetic engineering using the Sky People technology they might not have had available previously).
