I suppose a true film critic might say it was cheap emotional manipulation, but that episode made me feel more than anything I've seen since G'Kar/Londo scenes in Babylon 5 (and pooh to anyone who discounts G'Kar/Londo scenes on B5).
Not just the scene in question, but the sense of wonder from Danerys and Tyrion's perspective in the final scene. Those two scenes really worked together - wind you up tight, and then release the tension.
