you don't seriously expect a 10-year old girl to slid someone's throat in cold blood in american TV show do you? her character will have plenty of time to become darker in 3rd season when she is a bit older, and when she learns about all deaths in her family. right now, she is homeless little girl on the run, not a killing machine in the making. btw I agree about the Horn of Winter. the fact they bothered to show a horn being discovered with obsidian blades could be a major spoiler for the future.

far more interesting and much harder to follow for a wide audience. and TV shows are made for wide audiences, not for us the no lifers who read all books 8 times and now have to complain about stupid details. I loved every scene with tywin and arya. I don't understand what kind of progress was she supposed to make while being in a lion's den? her "tightrope walk" relationship with lord tywin must have been very interesting for everyone who did not read books. she could have made a mistake and be revealed at any time. hell, she could have even tried to kill him like in that teaser scene with a knife behind his back. it was exciting. and that is what TV shows are all about.

lol with weasel soup. that scene is completely irrelevant. did any one of you actually watch the show? robb stark's army is all together, there is no separate part of the army commanded by bolton who could come over and take harrenhall. since no one can take harenhall (which they would anyway soon abandon next season), there is no point in lannisters losing control over it. hence there is no need for stupid weasel soup. arya did what she needed to do this season, and that was to escape from the lannisters. mission accomplished. and btw, entire arya's storyline in ACOK actually makes much more sense in the tv show compared to the book original. it was too convulted with her being servant for the lannisters, then orchestrating coupe to take over the castle, then being cupbearer for bolton, then never revealing her identity to northerners, then killing her own allied soldier (I know that bolton was already traitor at the time, but she did not know that) to escape. honestly it was a mess. it is easier to follow what is going on this way, you know, just like it should be in a freaking TV show.
