~~Strange thing to hope given the clear article title.~~
Edit: my apologies, was looking at the tech crunch title. hackernews title is def more ambiguous.
I really liked the episode but I can understand people's issues with the plot.
SPOILERS. SPOILERS. SPOILERS. I'll keep it abstract and speak of no names, but still will include spoilers.

Sense of danger. - Imo one of the things that Martin did right was keep you on your toes. No one saw the red wedding coming. You were not allowed to have a favourite character as three episodes later they would probably meet a very gruesome end. Lately (and especially in this episode) seems the Hollywood approach took over. The hero was triumfant in the beginning, had a lapse of heart, he was helped to stand again, just to save the day at the literally last couple of seconds.

Ahh I was hoping this article was regarding the science to how bad the episode was from a plot and writing standpoint
