I gave it a 6.
Some of the parts I enjoyed:
-Anytime Bran has a scene that is connected to the Army of the Dead or events beyond the wall, I am appreciative. I really liked the raven scene with the NK.
-I was glad to see Gendry again. Moreover, I am glad that there is at least one descendant of House Baratheon remaining on this show. I don’t care how cheesy it may be, I was psyched for that warhammer. And, may I add, he is looking pretty fine. Hey, if RLJ gets annulments and dragon petting, then I get Gendry wielding a warhammer.
-Poor Jorah. LOL. Give it up, man. It’s not happening. You have to hand it to the guy, though, he is loyal.
Things that left me scratching my head a little:
-I don’t understand why anyone in that war room thinks that Cersei can be trusted to engage in a temporary peace treaty, so that Dany could go fight the army of the dead with Jon. I would be concerned that she would try to wipe everyone out like she did with the Sept. I guess Tyrion is putting his trust in Jaime to sway her, but it is a pretty risky move. I feel like Varys should know better. If the Jon/Dany faction gets played, it is their own fault.
- Regarding Prince Ragger, I think they are going through with it. All of it. The whole enchilada. Also, if the moldy parchment isn’t enough, they are dropping the High Septon references enough that I’m sure that douchebag will show up out of nowhere to testify to it. I don’t know, maybe they extended the reveal for so long because
-I was hoping that if Gilly discovered something in the Citadel plot it would be pertaining to why Gilly’s father was sacrificing to the NK (Ie- is there something specific about Craster/Wife offspring or will any baby of the North do?) Little Sam seems to be the last male descendant of Craster. Does he have a possible role?
-I understand what they are going for in the Winterfell plotline, but I'm just not feeling any of it. It will just be composed of multiple scenarios where Arya and Sansa throw insults at each other, while Littlefinger lurks in dark corners.

they want people to be shocked when Jon bangs Dany? I still think it’s more of a WTF moment if they end up as brother and sister and not aunt and nephew. Otherwise, Ygritte’s whole spiel about laying with your sister and avoiding incest to strengthen the clan seems like a throw-away line. But, both are creepy, so whatever works.
Who knows maybe next season their love affair becomes estranged because Jon could challenge her claim? At this point, I don’t have any fucks left to give in the Jon/Dany plotline.-I was hoping that if Gilly discovered something in the Citadel plot it would be pertaining to why Gilly’s father was sacrificing to the NK (Ie- is there something specific about Craster/Wife offspring or will any baby of the North do?)
