Was that definitely Rhakaro? He doesn't play a huge role in the books, but as Dance progressed GRRM seemed to be building him up for some sort of Queensguard-type position or something. I saw a version without Dothraki subtitles so I'm not totally clued in. Tyion/Slynt is one of my favorite moments and I thought the show nailed it. Bronn taking over the goldcloaks can only be considered a plus, his relationship with Tyrion was one of the best parts of season 1 and this just allows for more Bronn then we would have had, while not affecting how his character arc plays out. Balon was damn near perfect, Asha had the 'tude but maybe not the look. Davos never really speaks allowed about his support for the seven in the books, rather keeping those thoughts to himself, so I have no problem with how the show is approaching his beliefs, especially because the casting choice was damn near perfect. Excited to see Marg and Brienne next week. Also just wanted to touch on the Stannis/Mel bangfest, I think it's one of the few instances where HBO actually succesfully uses sex to help the plot along. While reading it didn't occur to me that Stannis was actually banging Mel till she offered it up to Davos. It may have really confused a TV audience when Mel has a Stannis shadow baby later on. Speaking on Mel, that's exactly how I pictured her. Great casting call.
