Reviews (1)
The episode kicked off with a dialogue that was a brilliant display of diplomacy, even though it wasn't about politics or international relations per se. It's these kinds of dialogues that continue to be my favorite part of the series, right alongside the impressive acting performances. Of course, the story is well-crafted, and even in its most serious moments, the creators don't forget about humor. Finding a show with genuinely decent dialogue is a bit of a rarity these days. I'm thoroughly enjoying it. / Lesson learned: Sometimes, the most crucial part of a conversation is what goes unsaid.
