Mother's Mercy

The epic moments here knocked the wind out of us. In a way that only this show seems to be able to do.

Mother's Mercy isn't as excellent as the last two, but it's a great cliffhanger that would solve all the questions in Season 6. Would Arya forget her name and become a nameless face? Will Jon Snow return from the grave after his death? Will Sansa and Reek find another way to escape the clutches of Ramsay Bolton? All of the questions will be answered in Season 6. For now, the performances are still great, the story/script is still well-written, the pacing, while a bit rushed, is fine for the most part, the directing is superb, the music score is still beautiful in it's atmosphere, the sets are lavish, the costumes are neat, the scenery is still gorgeous to look at, and the editing is sharper. So, overall, another great episode and a solid cliffhanger to Season 6.

This might be the episode where the most things actually happen. The 9.1 rating as of now doesn't really make any sense to me. As of where I am now in the show (end of season 6) the only episode that comes close to this level of underratedness would be watchers on the wall (season 4 episode 9). This is probably in my top 5 episodes off the top of my head so far

Stannis Baratheon finds that his wife has committed suicide and Melisandre leaves the group. Then he marches to Winterfell, but his army is surprised by the Bolton's men. Meanwhile Theon helps Sansa and they try to flee from Winterfell. Arya disguises to kill Meryn Trant and Jaqen H'ghar tells that she is not ready yet. Daenerys is missing with Dragon and Daario and Jorah ride together to find her. Meanwhile she is surrounded by a group of riders. Myrcella is kissed by Ellaria before leaving Dome with Jaime. Cersei confesses her sins to the High Sparrow and is humiliated while returning to the castle. Sam asks Jon Snow to be the next maester at the Oldtown. Then Olly tells Jon that his uncle Benjen is alive and waiting for him on the yard and Jon has a surprise.

"Mother's Mercy" is a bloody and violent episode of Game of Thrones. Stannis sees his world falling apart after the murder of his own daughter. I look forward to see the fate of Melisandre when Davos discovers what she did to Shireen. Theon finally reacts and helps Sansa. The segment with Arya is boring and pointless. The segment with Daenerys is only reasonable. The fate of Myrcella was predictable after the kiss of Ellaria. The humiliation of Cersei is the best moment of this show, and Lena Headey has an amazing performance. I am looking forward to see her revenge. The betrayal of the Night Watch is the most impressive moment of this show. My vote is nine.

Title (Brazil): "Mother's Mercy"

It really strickes me how this finale had small moments of satisfaction, but mostly leaves me feeling miserable and a sense that everyone is struggling and unanswered questions! Does that mean it is bad? No absolutely not!

This finale was very well made, and might be one of the most underrated and underapreciated episodes if the show! Yes it has some controversial moments and I do remember back when the episode aired,and the final shot was all over the internet! It was a bold cliffhanger to end the season on! .

Other than that this is a rollercoaster of emotions, making you feel happy or excited in one moment and shortly after you are left feeling shocked and heartbroken!
