People died and there was a battle. Lots of pretty important stuff happened that may surprise you. I really don't want to give it away.
The battle at the tree was bigger than I would've guessed, but I wouldn't call Hodor a main character. My point was just that someone wouldn't likely write "That was a great episode!" after Ned's death, the Red Wedding, etc.
That paradoxical time loop was pretty major, I thought. Although they've teased at it a couple times in the show and at least once in the books.
Not to mention the death of Bloodraven, Hodor, Summer and the Children of the Forest. Together they might combine to have the impact of one major character.

Lots happening..
I'm kind of disappointed that the direwolves have basically ended up just being overgrown dogs. Is Jon's the only one left at this point? [Reply]

If I'm wrong, I'll retract my criticism of that even minor spoilers give a lot away.
No offense, but I think you were off on all of these! :-)
Hodor may not be a main character, but he is a fan favorite. And technically, Euron died. :-) [Reply]

But regardless.
That was a great episode!
I think Ned's death is what hooked me on the series in the first place. That really was a great episode, as well as the Red Wedding episode. Great and terrible things happening. I really didn't like Bran's direwolf going down although it did fit into the motif of everyone being sacrificed so that Bran could escape. [Reply]

Agreed. Kind of killed Sansa's "awakening". I was thinking how all of a sudden she's got passion and fire. No longer a sniveling brat. Then Baelish pisses on her parade. :-) [Reply]

Emilia Clark wanted to see more cock.
