Oh my gracious god, what an unexpected turn of events especially the end. I hoped it to be anything but that ending was spot on !! And as I said this episode was a complete Maxine show until the ending dramatic twist !!

In maxine there's so different side of here we get to see her, despite all the chaos of court drama happening this season you just cant ignore her. I'm a sucker for musicals & must say that Musical was great, the Bracia part was good too. But seeing story from different perspective of Maxine we just realised why she is, the way she is. Her character was vulnerable, and all time invincible Georgia also seems to be broken here. Waiting to see how this season ends !!

What an absolutely epic conclusion to the season! I've already watched the finale twice, and I can confidently say it's not just one of the best episodes from this season, but one of my favorite episodes across the entire series. The storytelling, the pacing, the visuals-everything felt perfectly dialed in.

The emotional intensity between Moiraine and Rand was off the charts. That moment when Rand finally declares himself the Car'a'carn gave me chills. It was a turning point that carried so much weight, and it was delivered with such gravitas. Moiraine's internal conflict, her unwavering strength despite the turmoil, and her ultimate role in that scene was so powerful.

Then we had Moiraine vs. Lanfear - and wow, the channeling visuals were absolutely stunning. Every weave felt meaningful and dangerous, adding to the stakes in such a satisfying way. Lanfear continues to be one of the most compelling antagonists we've seen, and their battle didn't disappoint.

Siuan's speech, her heartbreak, and the political tension surrounding her made the entire sequence even more gripping. Her arc took such a tragic turn - it genuinely hurt to watch. 😭

And then Nynaeve - finally unblocking her powers was such a triumphant moment. You could feel the build-up and struggle behind it, and her breakthrough felt well-earned. Also, Moghedien getting collared was so satisfying and ominous. The stakes are clearly escalating in a big way.

Moiraine's reaction to all of this - a mix of resolve, sadness, and clarity - really brought everything full circle. Her journey, from exile to protector again, makes this finale such a rewarding payoff.

The weaves, the visuals, the emotional highs, and the subtle setup for what's to come - top-tier television. A perfect blend of spectacle and soul. Truly, a finale to remember.
