As with any show, some episodes are going to be better than others.
It’s unavoidable when making a TV series.
But for the most part,all 16 episodes are good in their own right.
Some are just better.
Readers of the books will know that this scene is ripped straight from the prequel novelNew Spring.
This episode is among the weakest in Season 2, but it’s still pretty good nonetheless.

Luckily, Moiraine shows up in the nick of time to save Rand.
Namely, the fifth episode.
During the fight, Lan (Daniel Henney) is mortally wounded.

But it isn’t just Nynaeve who gets to tap into her power for the first time.
Initially, Egwene tries to resist Renna, but it is no use.
But the action isn’t the only good thing about the episode.

It’s also the attention to the culture of the Two Rivers, which makes for an interesting ride.
Perhaps most importantly, for fans of the novels, seeing this first episode was a surreal experience.
But even if you’ve never even looked at the books before, it’s still a great episode.

These portals show what was, what is, and what may be, respectively.
She sees a life of love, where she has married Lan and had a child with him.
For the time being, at least.
