Two races look like condescending jerks. Elves looking down on humans as if they are second class citizens and harfoots leaving their own behind for not only injuries, but, as it would seem, any reason whatsoever.
So, this episode follows Arondir, who is captured by the orcs and is forced to toil in their labour camp (for some reason, along with his fellow elven soldiers, who were captured off-screen, I guess).
The next plot-line follows Galadriele and Halbrand being escorted to Numenor shores, wherein, they are not much welcome, but instead of seeing them off, like they would want to, the local nobility decides to keep them there for some reason.
And the third-plot sees harfoots punishing Nori for harbouring the mysterious stranger. But, along with Nori, her parents are being punished as well.
+ Atmosphere + CGI + Acting

- Two of the races were depicted as unsympathetic jerks.
- No explanation on how did Arondir's company get captured by the orcs?
