Ok, admittedly there are some issues with Daenerys' episode-closing scene, but looking beyond those for now it was great to witness Drogon in action once again.

The largest of her dragons has been conspicuous by his absence this year, especially at pivotal moments when he might have been expected to swoop in, and it's a credit that the show didn't have him simply flying in and saving the day again.

Instead they've waited, and it's another show of power from Daenerys. An unnecessary one, yes, but it will never not be awesome watching Drogon in action, and the overhead shot as he flies over the Dothraki was particularly impressive.
