Seriously, that was the best episode of GoT in a long time. When Sansa and Jon met at the beginning of the episode, I got all excited: "Holy shit, they're actually MOVING THE PLOT FORWARD."
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yes, it was an excellent episode! So much happened.

This season of GoT is knocking it out of the park. Women taking over Westeros for the 99s and the 2000s. I love so many strong women showing out in a society dominated by men, at least on the surface.
Also, Tormund + Brienne? Here for that!

It seems like they're setting up the War of the Five Queens.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
When Sansa and Jon met at the beginning of the episode, I got all excited: "Holy shit, they're actually MOVING THE PLOT FORWARD."
I started chanting "I need a hug! I need a hug!" as soon as Jon saw her come through the gate.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Sansa and Jon working together! Tormund/Brienne!! Khaleesi on fire!!! (At some point the Dothraki are going to stop being impressed by that trick.)
Also for some reason the Iron Islands are still a thing.
(And oh, my heart, Outlander 2x6. I have many feels.)

Because books.
Tormund and Brienne eyeing each other up and down was perfect.
The friction between Daario and Jorah is also delicious.
My only beef is Ramsay -- they've taken him into mustache-twirling caricature now.

Ramsay is the new Joffrey.
Poor Osha. I would have like to have seen more of her.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Ramsay is the new Joffrey.
He's worse. Joffrey was FUN to hate. With Ramsay, every time he makes an appearance, I just groan and yell "WE GET IT, HE'S THE EVILEST OF EVILONIA" then I flash forward through his scenes.

He's gotten surprisingly boring.
