Edited by tjustie: 7/17/2017 5:50:36 AMThe opening scene, I thought at first that it was a flashback and was racking my brain trying to think of why Walder Frey's feast would be relevant to the story. When everybody made the toast and Walder didn't drink, I did have a nagging suspicion the wine was poisoned, but based off the speech he started going into, I thought he was punishing them for letting the blackfish escape or something silly like that, so when they started vomiting, I finally put the pieces together and then Arya took off the mask. I have no clue how I didn't see that coming right away, honestly. Very cool opening imo and a bit of an interesting sort of parallel to The Rains of Castamere. The rest of the episode was very good imo. A bit heavy on setup, but I think that was to be expected. I really enjoyed the Hound's scenes especially. Arya saying she was going to kill Cersei I thought was interesting. No clue how that will play out. Dany arriving at Dragonstone was awesome. [spoiler]Additionally, Nymeria is back, which is dope.[/spoiler] Also, Ed Sheeran's cameo kind of threw me for a loop at first, but I rolled with it. Overall I'd give the episode a solid 8.5/10. Not super exciting, but it got me hyped for what's to come, and I really enjoyed it.
