One rare, happy 'Game of Thrones' finale moment made the internet smile

LONDON -- In Game of Thrones, it's always nice to see a character who's been through a lot of miserable stuff finally catching a break.

For Sam, that break came in Sunday's finale when he reached the Citadel. After a mildly awkward conversation with a man behind a desk, he was told he could "use the library" while he waited for the archmaester to see him.

The library in question turned out to be a fair bit bigger than the facilities they had at Castle Black.
