Maybe not action filled, but pivotal things happened
- We find out that Bran gets away (Hodor must've held that door for some time)
- We find out that Bran gets a "download" of the history of the world and is now the 3-eyed raven
- Re-introduction of Uncle Benjen
- Tomen and Mareary totally burn their families and declare they are going to reunite the 7 kingdoms
- Walder Frey is scheming again for expansion
- Arya is no longer nobody, retreives the Needle and will be on her way soon to presumably payback some Stark family debt
- Danaerys and Drogon reunite and she finally gets back to talking about taking Kings Landing
Although there were no "are you f'n kidding me" moments in this episode, the biggest thing is one unspoken. We now have armies building/built on all sides and we will see the cycle of more true "games of thrones" with massive wars happening as winter sets in. I feel they've returned to their roots of season 1 and 2 in this episode, through 2+ seasons of setup.
