I had a hard time focusing on the sea battle through all my tears of Nymeria walking away from Arya when she said "that's not you..." ... fuck. I'm crushed. That's Arya saying to her father, "No, that's not me..."I just can't y'all. I'm done. The rest of the episode was a blur. These writers kill me.

I'll have more thoughts later. But there're very few episodes of this show that I can recall that are as well-paced as that one. That was something.

My dad thinks this means Arya has truly become No One, despite her insistence otherwise.

The one moment for me was when Nymeria turned around and left. Tears. The next was when Theon couldn't come to Yara's rescue - not just sad that he didn't, it's the sadness that he couldn't. Damn PTSD.

This episode TORE ME UP y'all... I'm dead. Done. I am still wiping tears.
Just when I think they can't beat the last scene they did... they push it even further.
I don't know about you all but I'm just sitting her stunned. Really.

So someone asked me about the Dany and Varys scene at my blog and I called it, perfectly. I knew that's how it was going to go down. Damn, I'm good! I'm pumped.

Exactly!
Everything about this episode was magic, and the pacing, intense. That sea battle was insane. Theon and the PTSD nightmare, the writer's are trying to break us down in large chunks rather than small bites.
Must Watch Again

There we so many great scenes. I'm really overwhelmed almost. I can't process it all. I need time to think about how awesome it all is.

"No, that's not me..."I can't even type. ... to Nymeria: "That's not you ..."

I'm at a push to say whether or not this beats The Kingsroad as an episode 2 or not. It's hit on all cylinders and really heated up from last week's build. It's one of those few episodes that REALLY amped up the pace of the show. The only other episode I can really remember feeling this pumped after was Hardhome, which is saying a lot.
