I was thinking "Run to the Hills" would have been the perfect music for that ending scene. Then Eddie showed up.

Oddly, Craster is the only casting choice I've taken serious issue with (Ygritte gets a pass for being a fine actress in addition to being remarkably cute).

"You know nothing John Snow"
And with that, the blue, swollen stones of every reader in the audience found release.
