    It was an odd episode. I was enjoying it much as I’d enjoyed all season but it needed an event, a climax.

    I think the shot of Aemond atop Vhagar outside of Shark Point was a complete underselling of what he had done. In the moment I wasn’t sure if that was what he had done, or one of the new dragon riders. Was it somewhere important? I didn’t know until Jace told Ulf. Should have been a sequence, and I’d have replaced last week’s joyride if money was the issue.
