Griff too

I must say I loved this episode. I feel the fact and D&D wrote this one as well, made this one and last week's flow very well together. The Bran scene definitely stood out as a odd timed and not very well executed scene in my personal opinion. I love Bran's storyline in the books and i hope that over the next few episodes we really start to see his arc explored more. The Jaime/Brienne interactions continue to be a huge plus of this season. They are really developing those two characters well. (I think now, just as in the books, we begin to see Jamie's turn from a "bad guy" to a soon to be hero) I'm such a fan of the Theon storyline. I know it's not from the books exactly but GRRM has had to help give his ideas towards this arc and I appreciate the character development for his character as well. The NW mutiny was a little chaotic but I really think we have not seen the true end of that and maybe somehow they will still get the Old Bear's last words into the show. I personally had chills starting from when Beric started to talk til the end of the episode. What a way to finish the show and I just can't wait to see what is still to come. 10!

That's what I was assuming since we have not been introduced to the other possibility.

I gave this episode a 9. As several people have said the Riverrun scenes were terrific. I didn't quite get the whole Stannis scene the first time I watched it but the second time I don't hate it as much, he seems more interested in the destruction of his enemies than the sex. Also I think it sets up a unique story arc for Mel (The whole you are not the only one with your blood). Absolutely loved the Tyrion and Pod scenes. I think the whore scene sets up Pod for later times. And the Tyrion and Bronn pulling up chairs was just a great way to wrap up the scene after Tyrion explains how bad the 7 Kingdoms are off because of the mismanagement of realm for so long, plus the inclusion of the Iron Bank was great. I liked the fact that we are getting a little back story with Theon's arc. As book readers we know where it's heading but, they couldn't written Theon out for 1-2 whole seasons, so I am enjoying that quite a bit. As other people have said as well, Jaime is a bad guy. No matter how much we as viewers enjoy Jaime, he's still a bad guy. So the end song doesn't bother me at all when put in the context that he deserves some sort of punishment for everything he has done so far.
