I finally saw it earlier today, lol. I liked the Arya parts, as always. It's impressive how they managed to shorten her plotline while still keeping all the important points, and now we're in Harrenhall where she'll get to decide who lives and who dies, one of my favorite parts of that book.

I agree about Asha, from all of her segments in the book I pictured her as more attractive and charming. Maybe she'll come into her own, maybe not. Apparently they're not including Victarion in the show at all though, so Asha is picking up the slack, with Balon basically having her as his designated heir already. Speaking of which, Balon is great as ever. And Theon's scene with the priest was excellent as well. Theon's scene where he whined to his father like a little child wasn't that great, however. And I was actually surprised to see he even wrote a letter to Robb. In the book Theon is resistant to fighting the North initially, but he came around to it much quicker and more easily than he does in the show. Plus there his main concern was not commanding a large enough force, a subject he only alluded to in the episode.

Tyrion's scenes were great, as ever. Sam's scene with Gilly I found awkward and unbelievable, and the way Craster's arc was wrapped up makes me question why it was even necessary for Jon to see anything when they could have just as easily set out further north without being kicked out. Oh well.

Oh, and most importantly... I'm liking Margaery. Not that she's aware of Loras and Renly, and her casual attitude toward having a threesome with her brother, no those parts I find odd and unbelievable. I mean her dresses and boobs. As eye candy, she functions very well.
