To sum up this episode in a word: anti-climatic. I'd call it a filler episode and one of the worst at that, but it actually progresses the plot in major ways and makes good on things that have been building up this season: Sam's trip back home, sparrow's punishment for the queen and Arya's journey with the faceless men. It's just that all of those plot threads, along with the new ones and characters introduced, were dull and largely unsatisfying. There were no memorable scenes, be it emotional, dialog driven or action. Not every episode can be a banger like last week's but this isn't even a filler episode so it should be more interesting and exciting than this. One of, if not, the weakest episode in the series -- any yeah, it's still pretty good.
