Note: Episode 5x07, “Erigah,” was released in some regions, presumably by accident, hours ago. If this hasn’t been fixed by now, and you are able to watch “Erigah,” please don’t post spoilers from that episode in this thread. We will create an episode discussion post for that episode once we’re confident it has been properly released globally.
