I was a little disappointed to see Daenerys handle the Masters without Yara's help. They set things up perfectly for this massive naval battle off the shores of Mereen, and then Dany burns one ship with her dragons and everyone just calls it a day.

A couple thoughts:

I never thought it would be possible to miss Joffrey, but seeing Tommen sitting in the iron throne just made me think that he had absolutely no business there. Whatever else you could say about Joffrey, one thing you could never accuse him of was being weak.
