Sword Of Mid Afternoon

I can't beleive they didn't show what the shadow did. My non-book-read brother asked me if it was a dragon. So there is a Bolton, Jaqen is of the red lot, and Penrose/Renly shall be merged. Interesting. Joffrey is turning into a right proper monster. New Mountain, new mountain armor = thumbs down. Qarth scene made it seem ridiculously odd that they didn't just shoot some crossbows and take the dragons. By the by, you can't go around sawing off limbs. If you don't caulderize the stump, you bleed to death and if somehow you don't bleed out, you now have a limb-sized wound to get infected. HBO interactive has the feature "Look through Talisa's medical kit" I didn't think it was Jeyne at first, but i think that is the actress cast presumably for Book-Jeyne's role. "The next time Ser Meryn speaks, kill him." Harrenhall was not as I pictured it in my mind. I pictured the massive 'entering through the gate was like walking through a tunnel' well built but castle but with some towers turned to slag. I also figured Dany had more than 20 people w/ her. I liked Raqarro much better than the other fella who remains. This all said, this is easily my 2nd favorite episode thus far, almost my favorite. Though I def liked book Renly better, I'm going to miss this one as well. Well looks like we'll get to see who Brienne is stabbing in the next episode. Probably another rainbow guard... rather than loras killing them. Why is your stag on fire? Salt and smoke, is he a ham? Ah, gay renly, how we shall miss thee. Final Observation ... yet another ~50 minute episode. One would think that if your problem is too much to include, you would maximize episode time. Over the season we're looking at two whole episodes worth of time being lost.
