Holy cow what a great episode. Brienne vs. The Hound just overtook Jaime vs. the bear as my favorite moment on the show. That was terrifying! As much as I would love to see some of the Stark children re-united, it's better right now for Arya to be on her own. Is she going to find the dude who changed his face from a couple seasons ago? He was from Bravos, no?
Tyrion's scenes were tremendous as well, and rather chilling. Where is he off to? Oberyn's home, or probably somewhere outside of the Seven Kingdoms.
This may be my favorite episode yet. Awesome.

Overall enjoyable, but...

The Hound and Brienne got a little too Rocky IV.

And that Bran shit was a little too fucking Simon's Quest after the sun goes down.

So much caught me by surprise that in hindsight I feel like it shouldn't have. The Children of the Forest saving Bran's ass chief among them. Everyone says the Whitewalkers are long dead, but they aren't; everyone says the Children of the Forest are long dead, so why shouldn't they be around too?

Stannins the Mannis swooping in north of the Wall should have been more obvious too, considering we knew he had his eyes set on the wall and that speech at the bank was convincing enough to get some funds.

Everything pointed to Jaimee freeing Tyriong, but leading up to this episode I was convinced Tyrion dies, even though a lot of people were telling me they think he lives.

This episode was fantastic, it really might be the best of the series so far. From what I gather, Arya is in the best possible position she chould hope for. And Dany chaining up her dragons is going to be a big mistake.

am i to assume brienne/pod ate hot pie's wolfbread? because if not, hellooo? great fight scene, though. i was the only one in the room who thought hound may not die- i would think for a character like him we'd see it, you know? i'm not ruling his survival out. and didn't arya say to him his wound could heal, but he downplayed it?

i am pissed that the mountain is still alive. and it seems he's going to have some frankenstein experiments done to him? ugh.

should have seen stannis' arrival coming, especially after the 'previously on...' segment, but i didn't and i loved it. fuck yeah, stannis!

man, i am going to miss tywin. i loved varys' 'fuck this shit, i'm out' turn at the end.

i really enjoyed these last three episodes especially.

I maintain that Tyrion is untouchable.

Dany...maybe not so much.

I am really digging the appropriation of Stannis's name in this thread

The choir version of the main theme over the end was so unbelievably good.

Great, great episode.

That was a great sequence in an episode filled with them.
I knew Tywin's time was up but I hated to see him go. I have enjoyed Charles Dance as a baddie.
I'm going to miss the Hound too.
