[book spoilers]What your non-reader friends/family thought and their predictions.

Margaery is now known to us as Margey Kay Letourneau.

They asked if that final White Walker was their king, and remarked he looked like a combination of a Buffy monster, Nosferatu, and Pinhead and I agreed.

They believed that Littlefinger (Or Tommy Carcetti as we call him) is lying to Sansa about taking her to the Vale and marrying her aunt, since Lysa knows the Lannisters killed her husband and Littlefinger is their crony. The "On the Next Episode" preview debunked that theory, so now they are not sure what his plan is. They're divided on his motivations. Some think he's trying to honor Cat by looking after her daughter and fulfilling his fantasy of being the father of her child. Others think he's a creep and are afraid he'll rape Sansa and/or sell her into sexual slavery. Unlike everyone else here criticizing Aiden Gillen's accent they all love his voice.

They asked "Is Dany finally invading Westeros now that she's freed every slave?" and "Are the Starks finally reuniting now that Jon and Bran as well as Sansa and Arya are headed for the same place?" But they're too smart and answered their own questions after realizing how the series has dicked the audience with these false hopes in the past and likes to shatter expectations.

We then had a discussion about how although cruicfying the slavers was badass, it's gonna bite Dany in the ass because they know that both the film industry and G.R.R.M so there's got to negative ramifications to come. They see a super white person invading the lands of brown people in the guise of humanitarianism and that's bad. They also think that some major characrters will die at Craster's Keep. The show has finally broken their spirits. I am proud.

After a discussion about the episode last night regarding the baby and the Others/WW - I realized my poor unsullied husband lost track of all the places in the story and confused Craster's Keep with the brothel in Moll's Town and thought the baby was little Sam (Gilly's).



I corrected him but we have to re-watch the episode so he can catch up properly.

Though I couldn't resist spoiling most of the series to my Unsullied mother, I haven't really told her much about Bran's plot.



She was with me and ready to riot when the mutineers were torturing Hodor, and she was really confused when Bran ended up at Crasters (with Jon on the way). She said, "I thought none of the Starks were ever happy again!"


And she was glad that Pod was leaving Kings Landing alive.



Oh yeah, and she asked Littlefinger to tone his creep game down :lol:

I haven't spoiled much for my husband. His reaction this week was that it seems too convenient that Jon is going to the same place where Bran is a hostage and that "the new guy who wants to kill Bran" is going with him.

Also he asked why Bran and company were all together like 15 ft away from Craster's. He thought that was really dumb.

He liked the ending with the WW.
