[Book Spoilers] EP307 Discussion


Recommended Posts

I do have to say that Talisa writing the letter did make me believe in the "Talisa is a spy" theory. It makes sense the more I think of it. They make such a point of them being all kissy all the time that I think it's a plot device to make the RW all the more tragic to non book readers when she betrays him. Now I wish I had paid more attention to what she was saying when Robb was asking who she was writing to and she said her mother. She said something about her mother being surprised about a lot of things that sounded a little ominous.

I liked the chain showing up. I enjoyed Tyrion's conversation with Bronn. I also really liked Jon telling Ygritte that her cause is doomed, and his eyes telling her that he's not gonna run off together.

This episode explored a bunch of different, mostly romantic, relationships. All the people saying "I am yours and you are mine". And then we have Jaime and Brienne making no such claims, but making real choices in that direction.

I guess Margery actually cares about Sansa, or perhaps sees her as being potentially useful? Was a little surprised that Margery and Sansa were still spending time together.

I liked the meeting between Tywin and Joffrey. Sure nothing happened, no violence was threatened and whatnot. But it is neat to see Joffrey trying to figure out how to inhabit the role of the king. And Tywin returning to his role of hand to a bad king.

I agree with putting Theon on screen this season, but I'd be happy to see less of his suffering.

Welp, the whores in Westeros are so modern when it comes to body hair eh? Guess the bikini wax got there before electricity and the penicilin.

True, or Westeros just has a better grip on priorities. :cool4:

As for the rest of the episode, Ygritte is getting more and more annoying, ditto Shae and yes the garden talk was ... painful. You actually got the feeling Sansa was warming up (just a smidgen) to the idea of a spending her life with an ugly, scarred, whoring imp instead of a handsome (albeit ... you know) prince.

But he hadn't, by that point, and was about to embark on a major, doomed campaign. Here he's got what he feels is a strategic masterstroke brewing (albeit a somewhat desperate one), and his wife is pregnant. There's no real urgency to take a pretty unprecedented action with regard to Jon.

of course there is a reason to make an explicit will. Robb knows he is losing the war. Two of his brothers are probably dead, one of his sisters is missing and one is in the hands of the enemy.

Pregnancies sometimes don't yield children and he might have a daughter.

I wish people would thing just a tiny little bit before posting and not make predictions sound like fact.

For the record, Talisa is up to something, but it isn't ratting out Robb.

LOL I just couldn't buy that. It was like a torture porn fantasy. Ramsay hunts women and flays them. They don't become his accomplices in his torture.

Exactly! This scene was so WRONG. It really really bothered me, moreso than anything else yet.

I think Cat had more lines of dialogue as Lady Stoneheart.

Seriously, I swear she speaks 1 sentence every third episode.

Waste of Michelle Fairly.

I'm really hoping they give her the opportunity to make up for it in the Red Wedding and I would forgive them.
