Game of Thrones 5-6 "The Gift"

It was sad but expected to say goodbye to Maester Aemon ( and now his watch is ended), But, it also means that Sam's own career training as a maester is aproaching. With Aemon dead and no infsnt son of Mance Rayder, Jon needs a reason to send Sam and Gilly south via Braavos, I wonder how it is going to play out.
Disappointingly,  Sansa relied on Theon to light her signal candle in the old tower for her, so, of course, Reek went and narced to Ramsey. We are all waiting for Theon to finally snap, and kill Ramsey, of course, but to kill Ramsey, he must kill Reek first. If "What is dead shall never die", according to the Ironborn worldview, then Theon still exists inside that unkempt mind, and needs to rise again and slay Reek.  

"Kill the boy so the man may live". 
-Aemon Targarian 

The best part of the epidode was to see Ser Jorah slash and stab his way through the fighting pit like a boss to deliver Lord Tyrion to Her Grace and allow Peter Dinklage to deliver another perfest line, "I am the gift".
Tyrion's journey through Essos in the books is exeedingly long, and hasn't ended yet. Now, we get to finally see he and Daenarys meet. She's going to need his aptitudes. I hope she doesn't waste the opportunity.
