    • Trivia
      This episode required a heavy budget for CGI, and it got to the point where the visual effects crew had to ask HBO for more money.
    • Goofs
      In the last scenes, Wun Wun walks towards the sea, heading to the ship, but he disappears right after that. As the cameras feature the boat moving towards the ship, Wun Wun can't be seen anywhere on the water. He simply vanishes.
    • Quotes

      Tyrion Lannister: When I was a young man I heard a story about a baby born during the worst storm in living memory. She had no wealth, no lands, no army, only a name and a handful of supporters, most of whom probably thought they could use that name to benefit themselves. They kept her alive, moving her from place to place, often hours ahead of the men who had been sent to kill her. She was eventually sold off to some warlord on the edge of the world and that appeared to be that. And then a few years later the most well informed person I knew told me that this girl without wealth, lands, or armies had somehow acquired all three in a very short span of time, along with three dragons. He thought she was our best, last chance to build a better world. I thought you were worth meeting at the very least.

    Phenomenal, magnificent, one of a kind!

    This episode was pure epicness in any way. It was an adrenaline rushed action packed with perfect narrative and brilliant acting. This series can only be better, an that's fact. I am still trembling and shaking because of what I've seen. Game of Thrones have all kind of stories we love from intrigues, love, adventure, epicness to horror, and thats why it is the best show in TV history.

    +Tyrion & Dany very dynamic story with perfect introduction of whats to follow.

    +Sansa and Theon story progression; Fine acting as usual.

    +Valyrian steel and John sword ;)

    +Cersei in a difficult situation. Perfect acting.

    +Spokes on a wheel. Effective monologue.

    +Winter and horror. Glimpse of future chaos. Definitely proved that chaos isn't a ladder...only pit! Cool scene at the end.

    My score: 10/10 if I could give it more I definitely would! Pure brilliance.
