what happens
Catelyn has captured Tyrion and plans to bring him to her sister, Lysa Arryn, at The Vale, to be tried for his, supposed, crimes against Bran. Robert plans to have Daenerys killed, but Eddard refuses to be a part of it and quits.

how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.
Read from 24 comments — 12 said when.
The number holds — it is read from every comment. The shape is not settled: only 12 said when something happened, and below 20 the same evidence split in half draws two different pictures. Drawn faint for that reason.
Not enough people said when to name this shape. The line is what the evidence draws, not a finding.

- tension rail
- how much was still unresolved
- grey haze
- how sure we are — wider means fewer people described it
what people actually wrote
Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.
“This is the first time in game of thrones where I could feel the weight of the fight.”

“Not some sort of glorious fight...but dirty, gritty, brutal, exhausting, slow. No music, no fanfare. Just two people fighting for their lives. It felt real, and it had you on the edge of your seat. I knew what was going to happen and I was still terrified Dunk wouldn't win.”
