That Valyrian steel sword at the beginning of the episode was "Ice", Ned Stark's blade. This episode we meet Prince Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper of Dorne. It is funny to think that this (or Narcos maybe) was the first thing I saw Pedro Pascal in, considering how huge of a star he is now. One of my favourite things about this series is how as the story unfolds we get more and more pieces to the puzzle of what exactly happened a couple decades ago with Robert's Rebellion and the fall of the Targaryen dynasty, and Oberyn's conversation with Tyrion in this episode gives us another one of those pieces. Of course when Oberyn says Rhaegar Targaryen left his sister for another woman which started the war, that woman is Lyanna Stark, Ned's sister who Robert loved. I recently got a copy of Fire & Blood which is about the history of the Targaryen Dynasty (and what the prequel show House of the Dragon is based on) so I'm really excited to start reading that. I do think it is a shame they had to recast Daario because I personally think the first actor fit the character better and felt a bit more unique but this guy does a good job too. That ending scene with Arya and the Hound at that tavern is definitely a fan favourite. It is crazy to think back to Arya from Season 1 and compare it to these last couple episodes. Not only has her childhood innocence been stolen from her, but at this point much of her humanity as well. Excited for the next episode! (Sorry for the super long comment lol)

The Hound and Arya are such a great pair up the dynamic is perfect they play off each other so well and it just gets better.

Thank you for this! We hadn't realized it was Ned Stark's sword! And well said about Arya. I love watching her grow and change but it's also very sad. You're totally right that her humanity is slowly being taken.

The first thing I ever saw Pedro Pascal in was the season 4 premiere of Buffy the Vampire Slayer lol
