Hannah Murray and Kerry Ingram were fantastic in their scene together.

Well my two favourites locations overall were the Wall and Meereen. Hard to pick just one performance though, since the performance in both locations was extremely good. I think if pushed I would say John Bradley for the Wall (with Dillane a close second) and Emilia Clarke for Meereen (specifically, the Drogon scene)

He was super. Also Dany, Drogon. Tyrion and Varys are two of my favs but I wasn't completely bowled over by either in 5.02. TBH, though, they weren't exactly given the best of scenes.

TBH, though, they weren't exactly given the best of scenes I haven't found the Tyrion and Varys scenes very engaging thus far. He best way I can describe them is forgettable, as when I'm judging/rating the episode I often completely forget they were even in it. So no, I'm not really impressed with those two so far. Hopefully that changes later though.

Not for me. Bravos felt a bit dull as far as I'm concerned. She didn't do badly or anything, but she (and the rest of the Braavosi sequence) was not especially exciting or memorable, in my opinion

Agree - really hoping T/V and A arcs pick up. I think they will, though, and meantime, I'm still glad to see them, just wish we had more/better.

I loved the Braavos scenes with Arya only because Arya is my absolute favorite of the 'kids' stories so for me it was just pretty immersion with all the little details like sailing under the Titan, the business of the market, rowing to the house of Black and White and of course, the scenes inside even if they were a little 'off' it seems. They did a nice job of making the inner area with the water well seem ominous and weird. I didn't care for the scene with the girl smacking Arya with a stick but only because there was zero sense in it and no explanations why a "game" like that makes any sense other than to piss Arya off and make her get her sword out and the audience doesn't really get a good understanding of that.
It seems to me they are purposely dragging it out and leaving it weird and I remember not really understanding a lot of it from the books at first either. While it works well in literature to be vague and ponderous as you lead into a mysterious scene or story line - it comes across boring or slow on the show. I think they're doing about as well as could be expected for a rather weird portion of the story for Arya.
MOD: Please spoiler tag material from the leaked episodes, thanks.

My apologies to anyone for the Braavos scene spoilers, I slipped up and forgot which thread I was posting in. I thought I was posting in the episodes 1-4 discussion (leaked). I'm usually much more careful about that and I'm truly sorry if anyone read anything from episodes 3 an 4 from that. Thanks iheartseverus for fixing my screw up!

I have been meaning to note this for weeks. Besides our she-should-have-been Val actress.... there was the young prostitute in High Sparrow in Volantis who Tyrion was speaking to, Gwyneth Keyworth. She played Clea , striking looking woman , made an impression on me , interesting actress.
