9 -- I enjoyed the intriguing aspects such as and in this order: a. Trial By Combat! All seemed lost when Tyrion realized Cersei got to Bronn. Not sure he could handle the Mountain (Se Gregor) anyway. The Viper on the other hand is fueled by revenge and retaliation. He's no physical match for Ser Gregor but Prince Oberyn must have some tricks up his sleeve as a Master Poisoner. Anyway that story he told Tyrion showed just how sick and toxic Family Lannister is and if Tyrion EVER gets out of this one I do hope he vacates King's Landing once and for all! b. Lyssa Out the Moon Door -- But prior to that at long last we know Littlefinger lusts after Sansa the Cateyln Stark sex surrogate. How will they ever explain what went down though? I saw the teaser with Sansa addressing a council of sorts and saying that Lord Baelish was "lying" and something about she must tell the truth. Hmmm (Thoughts?) c. Love the burgeoning brutality of Arya! The Hound's backstory is pretty good. He was the unfavored one compared to the Mountain? Always wondered how he got that scar. Thought ot was in battle come to find out his own bro did it to him! (P.S.) I really want Arya and Sansa to re-connect! d. Lady Brienne keeps denying she's a Knight. Like Hotpie (basically) said if it the shoe fits, wear it. Thought it so sweet that Hotpie sent a Direwolf "yummy" to Arya via Lady Brienne and Podrick. Podrick is generally right, though....Brienne got lucky this time but no need to run off at the mouth about the Quest for Arya. e. Bored by Dany + Daario scene. Why not just show the sex? Oh that's right, Emilia Clarke will no longer drop trou for the cameras! (LOL) f. Melisandre and Selsye bonded over the bath? So what's up with Melisandre wanting to bring Stannis' deformed child into the magic fold? Carice Van Houten always did nude scenes, she's European but normally she does full frontal, that was some years ago though. I recall a scene in a movie where CVH was shown dying her pubes to match her blonde hair in some holocaust-war themed movie. She basically played a Mata Hari type. g. Jamie is now cool with me until he starts shaggin' his sis. (Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!) Twincest does not rule.
