The moments on Game of Thrones everyone remembers are the bombastic ones. Your red weddings and Stark beheadings were the shocking twists that made the show a cultural phenomenon, but what made it work was everything that happened in between. On a show with dragons and zombies, the best scenes often featured two people in an elegant room. These quieter moments got us invested in the characters and their world, and no episode exemplified that better than “Kissed by Fire.”
