**Just to clarify, alot of the people in this forum didn't watch the HBO Go special preview of episode 7 this past week (either they don't have HBO Go or won't watch on their computer) So, this is the actual episode 7 thread for them and HBO Go watchers who already saw the episode and wanted to add anything else.**

superdeluxe

Can not wait for tonight!!!

sven

It'll be nice to see this episode when it isn't freezing up every 30 seconds.

I'm guessing the rather lengthy lesbian scene is why we got the additional 'strong sexual content' warning

NORML54601

Damn, they're sure not afraid to kill of characters.

Has Roz ever appeared dressed other then last week when she flashed her vag

JasonF

In the scene at the beginning, did they ever reveal who Jaime was talking to? I assume it's his father, but they never actually said so, or said his name.

I wish they had depicted Tywin's hair as it's described in the books because that would have been hilarious.

NORML54601

Given that he gave Jamie half the family's army & the way he spoke of Tyrion I assume it's the father.

joefrog91

Even though Little Finger hinted at it earlier in the episode, I was still blown away by the ending. This show is awesome.

xfusejc

It's Tywin (his father), but he wasn't named in the scene. Jamie did mention that he didn't know he (meaning Tywin) was so fond of his brother, if I remember correctly.

Thrush

Holy shit that was a great episode. Was Mormont given his pardon to facilitate Khalisi's assassination?

creekdipper

Well, this episode won't play well in San Francisco, as circumcision is evidently practiced in the 7 Kingdoms.

JasonF

I figured it was Tywin, but I thought it was very odd that they never actually said so.

starseed1981

Holy shiznat! I actually did not see that Littlefinger betrayl coming. Wow. Epic stuff. On a side note Joffrey is such a little bitch. I really hope he gets gutted or something.

Tracer Bullet

That added lesbian sex scene with Littlefinger was ridiculously unnecessary. We get it, HBO, you can show this stuff. Did it need to be that graphic? That was straight-up porn.

Shady12

Great episode, as a reader I was really looking forward to these last two. Such a great episode..and my two favorite characters weren't in it at all.. Tyrion and Arya.

JohnSlider

Yeah, I've defended the sex scenes and nudity before, but the lesbian scene was all kinds of unnecessary.

fumanstan

Is the lesbian scene in the book?

sven

Nope. Roz is not in the book at all.

fumanstan

Note to self: don't bother reading book!

Draven

It did fill in more of Littlefinger's backstory, just in a very HBO way. I, for one, did not mind in the least.

Even though I know what's coming, it's still pretty awesome to see it all play out pretty faithfully.

Superman07

I had a bunch of these backed up, but I went through them and watched this one quick. Talk about upping the stakes!! I hope that little bitch gets it. I think I dislike him most of all.

I didn't expect Little John to be such a back stabber. I guess he's hoping to weaken the Lanisters to eventually take over himself.

I can tell this is going to get ugly quick. There are going to be internal issues, war to the North and the East!!

NORML54601

I doubt the Dothraki invasion will begin to take place this season. They still have to get boats and Drogo won't invade until his son is born. It would be satisfying to see Drogo kill Joffery though.

Gunde

I don't think you've ever seen porn
