Pity, I liked Ros. I thought she'd be around longer offering some regularity considering the more prominent deaths to come. It appears that won't be happening

Looks like that scene is going to be another very hard to watch scene. However, it will reestablish Joffrey for the person he is, after some people have been wondering if Joffrey was going to be "reformed" like Jaime was. Also, if it ends up that Littlefinger set her up, then that will also help Littlefinger leave on a very memorable note, seeing as he will probably be absent from this episode until the PW in next season.

Very understated but awesome episode. The comparison of "the climb" as Littlefinger puts it to John Snow and company climbing the Wall was a nice touch (also the title of the episode). Every time they put Littlefinger and Varys in a room together I feel like we're watching the only 2 real players in the Game of Thrones.
The Tywin/Queen of Thorns scene was underwhelming to me at first, but thinking about it all the undertones and the back and forth were perfect.
Melisandre meeting Thoros and taking Godric was actually very interesting to see the potential "greater plot" among their "clergy" if you will. I actually really liked that scene.
They've still done a good job not giving away the RW at all, although they teased it a little bit a couple of times with the Theon scene and the dinner scene with Jaime, but covered anything with obvious answers for now.

They're overdoing the littlefinger foreshadowing. No one is going to be surprised at what he does / has done at this rate.
Interesting scene between Arya and Melisandre. It sets up Arya's future as a faceless man with the "darkness" comment and possibly foreshadows who Arya's target will be as a faceless man assassin in book 6. Would the FM send Arya to the wall to kill Mel knowing who Arya really is? It seems unlikely but it would be a good vehicle for getting her back to Westros.

I kind of feel the same way. However I still really enjoyed this episode. As past seasons have proven, there is usually a period where the story gets setup and then in a moment things get sent into overdrive. Even my least favorite episode of GoT which probably would have been in season 2 at some point is still better then 99% of whats on TV. I think this series is going to go down as one of the best of all time when its all said and done.
