I've suspected that R+L=J will be revealed next season when Bran returns. I don't really think they need to introduce Howland Reed. Meera might know or Bloodraven.

If Meera knew, why would she withhold that information from Bran? She had plenty of time to relay it over the course of their journey. That would be bad writing on top of bad writing.

Barristan is dead. It's been confirmed.

So the Rhaegar the singing minstrel story was to drive home how much of not a rapist he was? After Sansa's comments in the crypts? Can we really expect non-readers to pick up on these things?

So what was the point of even having Barristan in the show if they just get rid of him like that? Just to drop a Rhaegar spoiler?

So maybe Baelish dies next week?

Does Dany know how weak her army? Cripes.

I'm curious to see if Barristan's death is the one ew.com talked about where the actor begged to not be killed off (because they were still alive in the books). On the other hand, if it's not Ser Selmy....guess we'll know in a few hours if ew.com puts the interview up or not.

Are they trying to make Mace look like the gatekeeper of Emerald city?

This!

Thank God they were able to fit Fat Walda into the show.

*blink*

The casting budget.

Ugh.

I am convinced the new queen put the poison in the cup after getting it from grandma.

His death scene was great And bonus? Something that actually happened.

The prolific strikeforce of Sergio Aguero and Alvaro Negredo were again on target while Fernandinho struck twice and David Silva and Yaya Toure also got on the scoresheet.

Weakest finale, partially because it didn't end with the end of the book so no 'cliffhanger', and partially because they tried too hard to resolve nothing post-RW aside from getting Jaime to King's Landing.

5/10

You had to know tonight would be potentially underwhelming after last week, but this is just 65 minutes of lips and assholes.

Really? That was the big ending?

Cripes.

Still nine minutes.

HATE.

I HATE what they have done with Stannis. HATE it.

What a simpler time. Shooting arrows at a man who breaks your heart. #gameofthrones

The ep goes til ten after the hour

I wonder if that scene sets up Varys sticking Shae in Tywin's bed to drive Tyrion's rage.

I like that theory a lot.

Yeah.

Good lord I love Maisie Williams.

Yeah, I find the lack of Cold Hands a plothole at The Wall.

I have a feeling he'll be the last Greyjoy standing.

Which, in light of events, would make him the last Greyjoy.

I can't help but think, "What's in the box? WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!"

:laugh:

That broke my heart more than anything last week.

I thought LF was suggesting he had given Ros to Qyburn for experiments, actually.
