I loved the look into Snow and really interesting to see his back story. A nuanced story into the paths we can take with a lot of questions. For the record he's a bastard and cheer for his demise because ultimately it's your actions that matter and what he kept choosing, watching that slip darker and darker was well written. I liked his character and loved Lucy. Her story was handled so well.
