  1. He isn't a turncoat. He's trying to cushion Brienne by presenting her with a white lie that he hopes will spare her the worst of the anguish sure to come.
  2. They're showing her completely justifiable rage rising in her until it explodes. She's angry, not crazy. Who would not be?
  3. At least for now, I'm exactly the opposite. I hated last week unbelievably. But sending Ghost to the north where he belongs instead of dragging the poor guy to his doom in the south makes perfect sense to me, the sign of a caring and compassionate friend. Tragic that he won't realize until it's too late that all that applies to him, too.
  4. Sounds like he doesn't want people to know he plans to die trying to kill her.
  5. Remember the first line of the Iliad. It's all about the rage. Always.
  6. Brienne's uncontrolled grief is for Jaime's guaranteed death.
  7. How much of it is the script, and how much of it is the director? This feels more like 8x02 to me.
  8. I need to rewatch this scheming between the Imp and the Spider. I can't quite see what Varys intends here, how he will manage to back Jon over Dany in any meaningful fashion. But I'm sure it will get them both killed.
  9. "Do you believe we're here for a purpose?" Aye, there's the rub. People believing in "purposes", like prophecies and believers in manifest destiny, are apt to make terrible choices based on their beliefs.
  10. Of fuck, the music says these are the last goodbyes for these characters. Sansa must be right about Stark men who go south always coming to ill.
  11. It freaks me out a little that a wight bit off Ghost's ear.
  12. I still Balerion the Black Dread was bigger than Drogon is now.
  13. Oh look, there's a new Prince of Dorne! Who the heck could that be?
  14. Whenever I see someone telling a kid never to tell anyone else about what that somebody's just done to that kid, I always get creeped out. No good can come of that. Bad things happen in the dark. It's not quite like that with Dany to Jon, but there's enough of an echo of that there here that it bodes not well.
  15. Yeah, what day is today anyway? You're exactly right!
  16. Brienne sure does have a thing for guys who sleep with knights, doesn’t she? Renly and all that.
  17. Bit of dramatic irony there, don't you think? Wasn't Tyrion goaded into sex by Jaime back in the Tysha days?
  18. Sansa, too: she gets the super-soft focus treatment.
  19. They sure do like using that soft-focus filter on Dany, don't they?
  20. Dany's looking mighty troubled by the talk of Jon having been murdered but not staying dead.
  21. Looks that way. I don't think it collapsed and crushed Castle Black, the Nightfort, etc.
  22. It’s just like how Ned was always credited with defeating Arthur Dayne.
