Pros :
-a great "goodbye" scene as Arya leaves Hotpie
Cons :
Pros :
- the beginning of the episode is a 10/10 as we see the funeral and proceeding with a solid scene between Robb, Blackfish, and Edmure.
- a great acting, emotional scene from Catelyn as she griefs for her children
- the council scene is an S tier scene. I love how Tyrion slowly takes a chair and sits in the opposite side from Tywin as if he is testing their patience.
-a great "goodbye" scene as Arya leaves Hotpie
- Ramsey frees Theon and the chase was amazing and the editing and the direction was great.
- The argument between Jorah and Barristan Selmy was a highlight with great dialogue and reasoning for everyone's perspective.
- the ending showed us the honorable side of Jaimie with contrast of first season's Jaimie. This is certainly a great change in Jaimie's arc as he lost his most valuable thing the represents his character.
Cons :
- the scene with the nights watch in Craster's keep was a bit dull but still good considering the lack of interesting conflict in there and personally I'm not interested in Sam and Gilly relationship.
- Stannis and Melisandre's scene was the worst scene in this episode and that doesn't mean it was bad, it means that there wasn't enough context to make the scene a stand up scene.
