  1. Overall this was a very strong episode...nothing is perfect, but this one was good. Any of the scenes in the jail cell were nailed.



    Sansa/Castle/Robin seemed a little rushed, but was done very well. I would have preferred seeing the giant because of the theories involved around foreshadowing, etc but they did it well.



    Moondoor...didn't like they didn't use "Only Cat" & the scene also felt rushed but in the end Lysa did fly. Course for me this is a point where the journey of this one didn;t live up to the destination.



    Arya/Hound v Rorge/Biter....I'll be disappointed if the bite is what takes him down & Rorge standing there to get stabbed was weak, but the Arya/Hound dynamic is great.



    Mel/Selyse...that was interesting. Said it somewhere else, sort of let on that some of Mel's powers come from powders & vials...



    8/10.

  2. Oh great here come 5,000 posts complaining that he didn't say "only Cat"

    Jeez, it was just one change of a line, can't believe people are upset.

    Hell of a scene...hell of an episode.

    hahaha Brilliant. I love it when purists get so annoyed over pretty insignificant changes like this one (albeit a very popular line). That has made my week.

    It's not just that it is one line...it is sort of like dracarys, it has its own meaning to the story. Since either one is only two words, why change it?

    Bet both Sansa and LF lie and say Lysa fell.

    Which will be weak IMO - a person who has been around the moondoor her entire life, knows how dangerous it is, all of a sudden falls out days after being married? after some strange young lady shows up? Unless LF has already had people bought to buy that happening that wouldn't - pardon the expression - fly.

    Also I don't understand why some people weren't happy with Aidan Gillen as Littlefinger, he's perfect for that role. It's one of those occasions where i, when i reread the books, put my own imagination completely aside and replace it with both the face and the voice from the show.

    I think he is a fine actor, the issue I have is that his voice & accent changes more than a 13 year old boys does. I think they have written him as far less subtle and manipulative than he is in the books, but he is doing very well with what story they have provided him.

    I think ultimo is right. That is what I thought was the logic behind the line change. Casuals could be sort of confused and forget who Cat is. She hadn't been called "Cat" for a couple seasons anyhow. It just made it more clear for some viewers.

    Would someone who follows only the show even have realised who "Cat" is, without having to think about it for a sec?

    Saying "your sister" just makes it more clear.

    So at the same time the "unsullied" are quick enough to pick up on little hints and phrases in prior episodes, but in this one they wouldn't be able to pick up on her name? Seems like reasoning needs to be consistent...either they can pick up on it or they can't. It's not like we haven't had multiple scenes where it is reinforced that LF had a thing for Cat.

    Couple things... seemed like Mel admitted she's full of crap and knows more about magic tricks than R'hollor secrets. Strange.

    Yeah, that seemed a little odd...basically breaking the magicians rule by telling how the tricks are done.
