Protagonist or supporting character doesn’t matter who they are, what matters is that they stole the show. Tell us what were your top performances of the episode.

The acting was probably the best the show as a whole has had for a long time. Honourable mentions to Sophie and Alfie for their reunion, and Nathalie and Jacob for their talk.
But my three favourites are as everyone else seems to have picked - Emilia, Gwen, Nik.
Emilia - I've not disliked her acting to the extent some do and have often said she has moments where she really shines. This entire episode was such an example. It helps that she was given such rich material to work with but she did everything so well, displaying power, desperation, anger, vulnerability and loneliness in just the right levels. Perfect.
Gwen and Nik have always been fantastic together and this episode just proved that point. Gwen has been terribly under utilised (on this show and elsewhere - nobody puts baby in the corner Gwen in a tin bucket!) But this episode gave her some great moments. From the tenderness of being knighted to the hilarious look on her face when Tormund tells the Giantess story. Nik plays off Gwen very well, as I said, but he also commands the scenes he shares with everyone else. His performance at his 'trial' is wonderful. Iirc there was talk he could be put forward for the Emmys this year. So far I agree with him as the most appropriate choice.
Just a brief write up because I'm aware I sometimes come across as a hater, which I don't mean to
