Summary
Jon Snow is dead. Daenerys meets a strong man. Cersei sees her daughter again.
Our Take
A quiet, downbeat opener that spends most of its hour checking in on everyone still standing after last season’s bloodbath. The Melisandre reveal lands well and gives the episode its real punch, but the Dorne and Meereen scenes drag badly. Worth watching for the atmosphere alone, just don’t expect momentum.
