The Targaryens are famous for the chaos they've unleashed on Westeros; this week, we watched a little dragon try, in his own careful way, to put out some of their fires.

5/5

Still, the big twist does hit harder in this TV version, because the show’s writers have made such an effort from the beginning to develop Egg into a more well-rounded character.

9/10

The Squire was a quick episode clocking in at just over a half hour, but there’s something to be said for an efficiently told installment. Especially one that makes binge viewers eager to jump to the next episode.

5/5

It’s not like the show’s been subtle about the fact that Egg isn’t precisely who he’s been claiming to be, but the revelation of who he actually is, well. That’s dramatic enough to scramble poor Dunk’s brain entirely. (And maybe everyone else’s too.)
