SRM S05E02: Qyburn Gets Ahead

This episode of SRM covers Season 5 Episode 2 of Game of Thrones. In an episode that took us all over Westeros and Esos we got to check in and also progress several storylines. Lots of ups and downs for characters tonight, but we know very well that the highs for any character typically don’t come without a price. Only two episodes into this season and if we can keep up this pace this could outdo last season, which at the start seemed an impossible task.
