This episode seemed to be an extended version of the opening sequence of previously, on Game of Thrones ...
Therefore, this episode was just okay. I know sometimes shows have to create a little setup for future episodes, but we are 6 seasons in. We don't need a grace period before the action takes place.

In fact, you know what? Since all the show did was one big recap, and nothing new actually happened, then all I'm gonna do is rate my interest in the story threads.
So here goes ...
1. Theon/Sansa/Brienne
2. Jaime/Cersei
3. Davos + Dire Wolf (that's right, that wolf gets me every time)
4. Tyrion/Lord Varys
5. Red Woman/Jon Snow
Then it really is a toss up on how little I care
6. Jorah (I am going to count this as separate from Danny because I like his plot thread way more even though it is tied to hers)
7. Danny (Daenerys - I'll never be able to spell her name, so from here on out, this is who Danny is)
8. Dorne Women
9. Arya
10. Bran
Overall, the thing that excites me the most about this season shown in the episode is Theon and Sansa. Sansa got a lot more interesting now that she is paired up with Theon. Prior to that, I really could have cared less. Then they double-down and add Brienne in the mix? I am thrilled for this development.
Plus, I love the actor that plays Theon, and poor, poor Theon. He has been tortured for the last two seasons, it will be interesting to see his story arc. Plus, it bodes well that he was willing to sacrifice himself to save Sad Sansa. How pathetic, hiding out behind that tree.
Jaime and Cersei interest me because they are always, always doing something intriguing. I can not wait to see what new hell Cersei unleashes on the Sparrows, in particular, that one nun-type woman. Oh, she is IN FOR IT!
I always love Tyrion. I'd like that man to have some success.
As for the White Walkers, they would be high, high, high on this list. However, the show didn't include it in the episode. Clearly, it will coincide with Sad Sansa and obviously Davos, the Red Woman, and Jon Snow. Basically anything involving the plot in The North is my favorite once it all comes together. Everything else is lower on my list.
What storyline interests you the most? Let me know!
