This was my second favorite episode, I think, right after hardhome. I would have preferred that kept it a bottle episode all around Jon and the battle but even the Mereen stuff couldn't ruin the episode. A couple of thoughts:

 

1. Jon throughout the whole episode was one of the best displays of acting I have seen in a long time, specifically at the end with the shield and Ramsay.  

2. That Sansa smile at the end. She is still a bit of a jerk for not telling Jon about the Knights of the Vale but still. This is very clearly not season 1-4 Sansa. 

3. Anyone a little disappointed in the final "fight" with Ramsay? I felt like we deserved more of an actual fight. He has been portrayed as a warrior and a fine one at that. Jon is as well, luckily Kit's acting made me not think about that until after the fact. Still, I'll take it that was a fitting ending for him. Meat's back on the menu boys!!!!! WOOF.
