There are no words that can sum up how much I enjoyed this episode... but I'll try.
There are changes that are sure to enrage book purists, and I get it. Once again, they change the story. But personally, I loved the changes. LOVED them. This is exactly what I, personally, want. Same characters, same major events, but told in a new way. I love the books as they are, and I love the show as it is. I'm getting to fall in love all over again. This style of adaptation doesn't suit everyone, and I get that too. But I'm loving this ride I'm being taken on, and this episode is pretty close to edging out episode four as a favorite; I'll have to see how I feel after a re-watch.
There was only one bit in the episode I didn't like, which involved a message sent to Tar Valon. That wasn't enough to dent my overall enjoyment of the episode, though, not even close.
Enjoyment is once again a ten out of ten.
