The penultimate episode is full of emotion, an interesting barbarian resuscitation ritual and a gripping finale, probably the most pivotal scene of the entire season and at the same time probably a ruthless indication of where the Game will actually go and how the characters will be dealt with.

Another high-quality episode that provided the viewer with a decent amount of information about individual characters, there was also a second visit of Lord Varys to Ned's cell, which was equally interesting as the first one. The creators showed a nice, sly sense of humor and at the same time the ability to save money by letting both battles happen off-screen, I appreciate that, they really got me with that.
