"Kissed by Fire" is the fifth episode of the third season of HBO's fantasy television series Game of Thrones, and the 25th episode of the whole series. Directed by Alex Graves and written by Bryan Cogman, it aired on April 28, 2013. The title of the episode refers to the red-haired Wildlings, like Ygritte, who are said to be "kissed by fire". Fire is also a key element in other storylines, with Sandor Clegane's fear of fire being shown, as well as the Mad King's obsession with Wildfire, as told by Jaime Lannister. This episode also introduces another character named Shireen Baratheon, with the title foreshadowing her fate in "The Dance of Dragons." The episode received positive reviews from critics, with many singling out the scene with Jaime and Brienne in the bath as the episode's highlight—praising Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's performance. It won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Make-up for a Single-Camera Series (Non-Prosthetic) at the 65th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
