Episodes 4-6 (Spoilers)

See review of 1-3 here

The origin story of Dunk & Egg’s team-up takes a darker turn in the second half of the premiere season. Due to his innate goodness, Dunk finds himself in power’s crosshairs, and Egg is revealed to be the nickname of princeling Aegon Targaryen. 

This show shrinks Westeros down to an intimate experience; we have never spent this kind of quality time with the Smallfolk. Steely Pate, the armorer with a heart of gold, is an elite side character. The closing scene sets up season's worth of storytelling and an effective denouement to the black-and-blue bruising of the previous episode. 

Watch it.
