That was one of the detriments of only having 10 episodes. They didn't really have time to establish who Quorin was, just how much of a badass he really was and then set up his sacrifice in the end. That's one of the few real missed beats they've had in the series so far. That's such a pivotal part of the book, and for setting up Jon's role in the next book(s). It will work out fine in the end, I think, they'll get to the same point, but I thought it could have been done much better than it was.
