Our Take
A brutal, suffocating hour that earns every bit of its reputation. The slow build of dread is , and the final twenty minutes hit harder than anything the show has done to this point. The Dany subplot feels like filler by comparison, but it barely matters. If you only remember one episode from this season, it will be this one.
