Well now. The games afoot, Watson.
After a lot of exposition last week, which was followed by a bit more exposition in this week's episode, the wheels started churning.
[Spoilers Below]
Finally, we have a Stark family reunion, when Sansa, Brienne of Tarth and Podrick make their way to Castle Black and are greeted by a very much alive Jon Snow. It was a meeting that we've waited for since the end of season one and it was glorious to see.
I did wish their meeting would have been more happenstance, maybe as Jon had just left the Castle, but I'll take it? Even though they weren't close as children, and Arya is not in Westeros - tragedy has brought them together with a strong bond.
I did also think that maybe George R.R. Martin and company were going to screw with us again by having Jon leave Castle Black before Sansa got there, just missing each other, so I was grateful they opened up the episode with her arrival.
Sansa wants Jon to take Winterfell back, but he's tired of fighting, "I've been fighting since I left." How could he deny his sister and himself the right to go back to their home, Winterfell and take it back from a sadistic monster?
