bookfags are mad.

Honestly, I didn't care much for dual-wield Arthur Dayne.  Sure it looked badass, but at the same time it would've been nice to see Dawn in action.  Since it hasn't appeared, though, I reckon the sword won't have much of an impact on the overall narrative in the books.  The ToJ scene was fine otherwise, though.  And Ned Stark is a cunt for cutting down an already-dead Dayne.

The rest of the episode was just alright.  I enjoyed watching Thorne and Olly being hanged, and it's good to see Jon finally leaving the Wall.  I am kind of upset that D&D decided that the Umbers sided with Ramsay, seeing as the Greatjon was the biggest Stark/King in the North fanboy and SmallJon died protecting his king in the books.

EDIT:  Actually, the sword that Dayne had in his right hand might've been Dawn.  When he plants it in the dirt before the fight, you can see a sunrise symbol on the pommel. 

Either it's Dawn, or he forgot to take off the Rollback sticker from Walmart

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

So they are straight up calling Bobby Strong 'Gregor' now? I thought it was meant to be a mystery?

Also at the end when it zoomed in on Olly's eyes, I was expecting them to turn blue

You either die a hero or live long enough to become Mythic..
So

Can anyone explain to me what Arya is going through?

She looks like she's becoming a blind warrior, but then the Faceless Man gave her eyes back.

The hell?

I'm guessing the blinding was a punishment for killing someone she wasn't supposed to, and for ignoring what they were teaching her for a whole season.

She's being prepped for becoming a faceless man. That's what all the training is for. To do that she has to let go of her identity.

she was blinded because she purposefully killed the wrong man and when she killed him she stabbed him in the eyes.

Jon's?

Even though he technically didn't break it, but still.

well, all the watchmen who killed jon were oathbreakers. so is arya in a sense, since she was finishing her penance for breaking her oath to the FM/many faced god last season.

Shouldn't Jon be released from his oath since he was killed?

Yeah, he says that at the end of episode 3.

The broken oath is probably the Umbers'. Either they're oathbreakers for siding against the Starks, or they're oathbreakers by duping Ramsay into believing they're sworn to him (fake wolf head and all), and will betray him in the near future, and the title is just foreshadowing.

As opposed to the ACTUAL scene where he wields a magical sword crafted from a fallen star.

Yeah, the show's version is way more childish..

Yeah it is actually. There was really no point in actively disregarding the source material other than to make the scene look extra kewl and cater to normies impressed by flashy fight scenes.
