I was really taken with Elrond in this episode. I thought Robert Aramayo really sold the weight and history behind his decision to put on a ring and use it, and then when giving it back to Galadriel. That all felt really potent.I love the Numenor stuff and want about twice as much of it.I really would have preferred ending with Gandalf and Tom singing, but I get why they wold want something more ominous.I'm really curious to see when in the next 3 seasons they drop some of the big events and turning points.Will nine humans get rings next season, or will they find their owners over 2 or even 3 seasons? I kind of want there to be enough human characters to keep us wondering who will turn, but this doesn't seem to be that kind of show.When will [ispoiler]Numenor be destroyed[/ispoiler]? At the end of of  the 3rd season? Later? Will next season be about Annatar in Numenor?Will the whole 5th season be the siege of Mordor?</blockquote>
