"Book of the Stranger" is among the best episode of "Game of Thrones". Every segment is excellent and important, but the reunion of Sansa and Jon Snow and the final scene of Daenerys and the khals are spectacular. The encounter of Brienne with Davos and Melisandre is tense. Soon the viewers will certainly see the bloody war that is coming. The powerful music score in the end is another great attraction of this great show. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "Book of the Stranger"
The scenes with Tyrion and others have to some of his best scenes in a long time. The writing is yet again fantastic. Seeing two characters meet up again after so long, was one of the most tear-jerking scenes in a TV show period. Cersei becoming more of a bad ass this time around, gaining others to her side, and it looks like House Lannister and Tyrell might actually form an alliance.
This episode was great throughout, there was not one dull moment, and again with Ramsey being one step ahead of everyone around him, leading to a shocking scene. But all of this leads to one of the best endings in the show so far. Throughout seasons 4-5, people have said that Dany has had little to do, but if they say that again after this episode, well, they are just haters. She shows her true powers, since season 1. It is all played around to feel like season 1 finale, and it doesn't disappoint. This also helps when there is an extraordinary soundtrack playing in the background.
Brilliant episode, season 6 is the best season along with season 4. 10/10
Did you know
- TriviaEmilia Clarke was reported to refuse any more nudity in the show after the second season, and so it was assumed that a body double was used for her final scene, where she emerges from a blazing building naked and unburnt. However, she confirmed doing it herself, clarifying she refused only gratuitous nudity, not that integral to the story. The scenes where Daenerys is either having sex nude or being shown nude from the waist down are filmed with Emilia's body double Rosie Mac filling in for her, the two look so much alike they could almost pass for twins.
- GoofsThe High Sparrow tells Margaery his father was a cobbler, but describes his work as that of a shoemaker (cordwainer) - a cobbler is a shoe repairer, a common error but one that should not be made by someone who was so close to the business.
