Anyone else at the beginning waiting for

"A sword swallower through and through"

Poor Roz

Osiris3657

Who was the girl that Joffrey killed in his room? No one important?

MrX

Roz

Osiris3657

spelled Ros, according to game of thrones wiki I vaguely remember her. I have such a terrible memory.

EEz28

Seriously?! She was the lady attached to Littlefinger this entire season and she has been in every other season too. Was whispering to Varys about Littlefinger taking Sansa on a boat. Told Shay that she needs to keep an eye on Sansa from him too on the pier.

The Sword swallower line was great. Liked that entire scene as a matter of fact. Nice to see Tywin and Queen of Roses sparring.

Also: If you can't figure out who is with Theon, or at least have some pretty close idea, then you are not paying any damn attention.

Outside of the main characters, no one has appeared more than her

Osiris3657

yea yea I remember, I just found it difficult to recognize her in that particular scene.

"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."



That should be the mission statement for the series through 26 episodes. I can't believe there's only 4 left for another year.

I also at the sword-swallowing line. Brilliant!

MrX

"It's the Lysa Aaryn of chairs" was the other great line.

pinata242

And, once again, poor Ros learns that Littlefinger knows how to mitigate his losses from a bad investment. I hope that means we won't have to suffer as much sexposition in the future. The writers are doing a kick ass job without it this year.

Fuck you!

lordwow

How is this show so good every damn week?

superdeluxe

Great source material, great adaption by d&d

pinata242

I'm going to assume this is directed at me because there's no other logic around it, but I have no idea why. Therefore, I'm just going to roll my eyes at someone assuming a book spoiler about a character, Ros, that isn't in the books and because I referred to a scene between her and Littlefinger early in season 2.

If that wasn't a direct response to my post above it, then I apologize, but surely you can understand how I would think that.

majorjoe23

I'm going to assume the "Fuck you" was a joke because you want less sex on the show.

pinata242

That was the other way I was taking it. I certainly don't want less sex! I just don't want it to be the only way we advance certain plots!

B.A.

These recent eps would be even better if they would quit wasting time with Theon.

I am assuming, as a non-book reader, that Fat Sam's ancient blade is going to be important down the line.

So many of the characters on the show are very interesting and layered, whether they be good or bad. And then there is Joffrey. A villainous piece of shit through and through. Not a single redeemable quality.

I wasn't expecting Arya to lose Robert's bastard so soon. Stark girls can't catch a break.

majorjoe23

I was wondering why the worg(sp?) looked so familiar, then I caught the name Mackenzie Crooke in the credits. Gareth!

What was Sansa crying about at the end? Was that Little Finger's leaving on his boat?

Dave99

I'm guessing so, and the combo of finding out she has to marry tyrion instead of the dreamy ser loras..

dave94

She'd just found out about having to marry Tyrion, so she knows now that she's not any closer to going home.

Olenna vs Tywin
Baelish vs Varys

Riveting

This. Great stuff indeed. Still I don't know who's with Theon or why I should care what happens to him anyway. We've had more Theon than Dany this seasons and it's annoying me. Also don't know what Melisandra wants with the bastard blacksmith, but I assume it doesn't bode well for him. Shame since he's nice and good at his job.

I loved both the actual climb and the speech about the metaphorical one.

Also loved having Robb marry off his wimpy Uncle to set things right with the bridge folks.

boogieman03

So, was it me, or did Melisandra truely look frightened of what she saw in Arya's eyes?
