*Another solid episode that offers plenty of character insights and includes a second visit from Lord Varys to Ned’s cell, which was just as intriguing as the first. The creators showcased a wicked sense of humor and a knack for budget-saving by keeping both battles off-screen. How sneaky of them.

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.
