Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaHBO staged a scene of Jon meeting with Cersei while filming this episode. Kit Harington said he participated in three fake scenes to throw off leaks, stating "We put together people in situations where we knew the paparazzi were around so they'd take photos and they'd get on the Internet".
- GoofsSoldiers are ordered to shoot with the Scorpions by the command "Fire!" It does not make sense to use the word in a fictional world, where combustion weapons are not invented. The command for bow-type weapons would be "Loose!"
- Quotes
[the Hound knocks off the Mountain's helmet, revealing his horribly disfigured face]
Sandor 'The Hound' Clegane: Yeah, that's you. That's what you've always been.

Featured review
A visual masterpiece with mediocre writing
Was this episode visually appealing? YES. Could the script for this episode be better? YES.
If you just want action, lots of fighting and explosions then this is the episode you are going to enjoy. But if you want a logical story line without plot holes, a poor plot amour and strong character development (or endings), then no. The story line is very obviously rushed and you can tell that D&D has put little thought into writing a script that could match the levels of the earlier seasons, instead they opted for a more cinematic approach with impressive visuals.
