This is valid. It's so easy to judge a character on a handful of episodes when you forget what an awful past they have. Especially when you have the Joffrey and Theon storylines so fresh and ongoing.

2025-10-07 18:00:10 +0000 UTCYeah that's an insane level of arrogance to think the escape was on. I hadn't even considered he possibly thought he could escape from there.

2025-10-07 17:55:17 +0000 UTC-- Winterfell: Theon wakes up and realizes how easily he was tricked by Osha. When its pointed out that its his fault that Bran and Rickon have escaped, he instantly takes it out on the man who called him out. This shows off that worst part of his character - when he's embarrased, he responds with violence. He even tells Maester Luwin that there's *nothing* he won't do to prevent his people from looking down on him. Luwin is trying desperately to appeal to some sense of decency still left in Theon, but its not going well. We also see the Stark boys, Osha, Hodor, and the direwolves on their escape mission, looking for shelter. They consider going to stay at the farm where Bran had sent the two orphan boys, Jack and Billy, but he says it would be too dangerous for whoever hides them if Theon finds out. -- North of the Wall: Ygritte makes a few off-hand comments and sexual innuendos which make Jon super uncomfortable; at this point its still fairly innocent, but I think this is when she realizes she can throw him off and get the upper hand by using this to her advantage. They also have an interesting converation about how the only difference between northerners and wildlings is where your ancestors happened to be when the wall went up. As the episode goes on, Ygritte keeps taunting Jon about being a virgin and offering herself up and also talking about her much freer the wildlings are in general to try to tempt him and of course drops the famous line on him, "You know nothing, Jon Snow." When she's got him right where she wants him, she uses the same tactics to get away and then lure him into a trap. -- Harrenhall: Tywin has a full-fledged investigation going on because of course he thinks someone is trying to kill him. It doesn't make any sense that someone would have murdered this random soldier in such a strange way if it wasn't an attempted hit on Tywin that went wrong (except we know the truth). I think he was totally using Arya to check his food for poison. Yeah, he thinks talking to her is interesting and everything, but if she were to die he wouldn't even bat an eye. And if he knew her true identity and could use that to his advantage? All the better. He's done much worse in the past and never lost a moments sleep over it. -- King's Landing: Sansa is traumatized about the attack that happened in the previous episode, having nightmares about it, and then wakes up to find out the worst news - that she's started her period and is ready to have children with Joffrey. The image of Sansa and Shae trying to flip the mattress over when that other handmaiden walks into the room is so ridiculous it always makes me giggle. Cersei is definitely interesting in this episode. She's being so nice, it makes me nervous! First she has the conversation with Sansa where she is, dare I say, kind? She actually gives her some advice about how to cope with Joffrey and tells her to love no one but her own children. Then she has the conversation with Tyrion where she laments about the mistakes she's made and wonders if Joffrey's behavior is her punishment. They talk about how Targaryens wed brother and sister for hundreds of years to keep bloodlines "pure" and this incest ended up making half of them go mad. Tyrion reassures her that she's beaten the odds because Tommen and Myrcella are good and decent children. I'm not sure how comforting that is when you have an actual psychopath like Joffrey for a son. -- Qarth: Daenerys is on a tear around the city, trying to find her dragons and basically telling Xaro to 'shut the f*ck up' unless he can help - she doesn't have any more time for polite conversation and her attitude toward him has totally changed. Jorah finally comes back from finding her a ship to return to Westeros (we don't even know if he was successful) and she also takes some of her frustrations out on him. She feels completely alone in the world - every group of people she has ever felt any allegiance to, whether her own family, the Dothraki, or the Westerosi people she's never met, have forsaken her, left her, treated her badly, or she's led them to their deaths, and it's like she's just now realizing how alone she is. She feels like her dragons are all she has. Jorah has another unsettling conversation with the weird mask lady and Xaro sets up a meeting with the 13 and Dany where the Warlock admits he and Xaro conspired together to kidnap the dragons, then he kills the rest of the 13 and Dany and Jorah manage to escape. -- Westerlands: At the Stark Camp, Robb's bannerman are getting a little squirrely - they disagree with him about how many prisoners of war he's keeping and they are annoyed about having to build pens for them, feed them, and keep watch over them. Also, when Talisa comes to talk to Robb about the medical supplies she needs, you can see Roose Bolton giving them a judgemental look and Robb even admits that the bannermen are annoyed at her treating both the Stark and Lannister forces equally. Ultimately, Robb and Talisa decide to go the Crag together so that while he is negotiating their surrender, she can get some supplies from the Maester there. When Alton Lannister comes back with the message from Cersei, he gets put in the same pen as Jaime and that ends up being his undoing. While Jaime and Alton are talking, they discuss the time Alton squired for him and Jaime also recollects the time he was 16 and squired for the first time - for Barristan Selmy. I don't know if you guys remember him, but he was Commander of the Kingsguard for Robert Baratheon, and he was ousted by Cersei and Joffrey so that Jaime could take his place. We haven't seen him since, but he is supposedly one of the best fighters in all of the seven kingdoms. Jaime speaks so reverently about him ("he was a painter who only used red"), and yet he was part of the plot to throw him out on his ass. That kind of foreshadows what he's about to do to his own cousin. Although they're getting along and having a great converation, Jaime's only thinking about how he can use him to get out of there, and if he has to kill him, oh well! Jaime is captured pretty quickly after he escapes, but all the bannermen are *riled up* especially Rickard Karstark (the Karstarks are related to the Starks which is why they have some of the same family names - Ned's father was also named Rickard). Karstark's son was the one Jaime strangled when he escaped and Catelyn just barely manges to talk him down from killing Jaime right then and there. Brienne assesses the situation and they both come to the conclusion that as the men get more and more rowdy/drunk/pissed off as the night goes on, Jaime will likely not survive until Robb returns in the morning. -- Winterfell: Theon and the other Ironborn return from their "hunt" and as a warning to everyone in Winterfell to follow their orders, they hoist up the bodies of two little children, supposedly Bran and Rickon, which have been burnt beyond all recognition onto the castle gates as Maester Luwin screams out in despair. Afterwards Theon almost looks surprised like sometimes he doesn't realize things are really happening until its too late? He had the same look on his face after he beheaded Ser Rodrik. So, a man without honor - in the episode, Catelyn said these words to Jaime, but they very easily could apply to Theon as well, although I think of him as more of a boy than a man.

2025-10-07 05:30:14 +0000 UTCjaime isnt suicidal, just incredibly arrogant and over-confident in general (being a generational talent prodigy swordsman went to his head i suppose).

2025-10-06 22:31:22 +0000 UTCtywin definitely is not a "man of honour" lol, this war began with him sending gregor to rape and murder peasants across the riverlands as a response to cat seizing tyrion. tyrion was surprised to learn arya had escaped when he reached kings landing (he criticised cersei for having 3 starks captive and now only having 1), tywin doesnt know.
Joe Brown
2025-10-06 22:22:47 +0000 UTCHe doesn't need help opening his vault. He was making a point that no one but he can get his fortune but if she would marry him she could have half. I am pretty amazed at your insight and interpretation of events...even if they aren't always right π Arya's killing man is indeed Jaqen H'ghar. The masked woman...sorcery π€

2025-10-06 19:56:00 +0000 UTCand the fact that he had davos smuggle melisandre closer to renly's camp, rather than just have her give birth to it from the outskirts of his own camp, suggests it cant be used to assassinate particularly far away from where its produced (perhaps it doesnt live for very long after birth and can only travel so fast).

2025-10-06 18:50:19 +0000 UTChodor being able to understand speech but not speak himself is not inconsistent with real life disabilities fyi (plenty of people have intellectual disabilities and cannot speak but can understand speech and communicate well with other methods).

2025-10-06 18:23:25 +0000 UTCThis threw me on first watch and I noticed you may have been unsure of the character like I was, so just note that The Mountain has multiple actors. The S1 actor left for obligations with The Hobbit movies, so S2 they just rolled with a very tall (but not built like a strongman) actor already working on the show. So the Clegane in Harrenhal is Gregor Clegane as you were thinking.

2025-10-06 02:29:33 +0000 UTCYou were talking about the "shadow baby" going to King's Landing in the outro, but remember that before they departed, Davos made Stannis promise that they would not bring Lady Melisandre with after what he had witnessed.

2025-10-06 01:30:27 +0000 UTCI agree with Sansa looking like a young Elizabeth I! Also I loved βare we set on the fact that he [Joffrey] is gonna grow up?β ππ

2025-10-05 23:20:23 +0000 UTCJust wanna remind you guys that Tywin did send the Mountain after Princess Elia and her children by Prince Rhaegar(one of whom was just a baby). Then he presented their dead bodies to Robert wrapped in Lannister banners. He also destroyed House Rayne and House Tarbeck, that includes killing all their children. He would absolutely kill Ayra if he felt like he had to. The only thing he can't take credit for is Jaime killing the Mad King. He never wanted Jaime in the Kings Guard because it meant he couldn't inherent Casterly Rock and it would have to go to Tyrion. And no, Cersei and Tyrion were smart enough NOT to tell Tywin that she had lost Arya Stark. "I just don't think Jon Snow is suited to war." You know nothing, Damo.
