When you expect the scenes of banquet , the expectation is high. The episode gives in fair manner not only the image of the event but its status of seed for future stories. Henry Cavill proofs be a good Gerald and the game of the three narative lines is crafted in beautiful manner. So, a key - episode and a real good job.
Awesome, simply awesome! To those, who at least played Witcher (3) in Sapkowski's deep and brilliant universe, the law of surprise couldnt be visualized better. How wonderful was that, brilliant. I still can not pick up my jaw from the floor. Wonderful piece of interpretation and fulfilment to the saga.
I really enjoyed this episode a lot I'm lost to what's going on, but I will figure it out eventually.
9/10.

The most confusing timeline in Tv history, enough to make Dr.Who loose another life from just the head ache of it.
But apart from that it really is a fun and excitable series.
I actually thought Pavetta and Ciri was played by the same actress until I saw the credits. Got to give it to them they did a good job on the look. Kudos to the make up department.

Okay, things are on-track now. This is my favorite episode yet, and not necessarily because things are becoming clearer. Because it was genuinely good as a whole. Everything was interesting. What's going on with Ciri is becoming more interesting to watch now, maybe because we have more information regarding her, indirectly. Yennefer's part in this episode was just as interesting as everything with Geralt but felt pointless. Like it didn't have any meaningful purpose. But it was still the second-best part of the episode with Geralt's part being the obvious best. All three of their storylines are gradually getting better. I think everything will truly begin, starting with the next episode onward. I'm looking forward to it.

- TriviaUrcheon of Elderwald's story refers to The Brothers Grimm fairy tales, in which a similar story of a hedgehog boy and the Law of Surprise can be found in the tale of "Hans my Hedgehog".
- GoofsDuring the banquet at (10:51) a boy can be seen with a hurdy gurdy. By the way he is holding the instrument it would be impossible to play it. His right hand should be turning the crank while his left hand should be over the keybox and not underneath it.
- Quotes
Geralt of Rivia: At least when Filavandrel's blade kissed my throat, I didn't shit myself. Which is all I can hope for you, good lords. At your final breath, a shitless death. But I doubt it.
