Bowl o' Brown Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Nope, Sansa's POV. She sees the new Small Council take office, Barristan's deposition and the Hound's instalment as his replacement. It's the scene in which she begs for mercy for her father.Ah, that's right. Thanks.We see his dismissal, but the killing of gold cloaks is not seen, only mentioned afterwards.That must be what threw me off.I wonder if they are going to combine them into one scene like it had in my head. It would be a good opportunity to have Ser Barristan show what he can do. :fencing: I had forgotten about Sandor joining the KG at this time. The scene might just be the 4 KGs drawing their swords to welcome Sandor into the KG order, and its just clever trailer editing, and jump cuts, that makes it look like its fight footage.

Anomandaris86 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I had forgotten about Sandor joining the KG at this time. I love that exchange of dialogue from the books:"I'll join the Kingsguard, but I'll take no knights' vows.""But...members of the Kingsguard have always been knights.""Until now."Hope they keep that.

They could just be threatening him, not getting stuck into a melée. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneeye Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Syrrrrrrrrriohaving said that, this episode promises a lot of meat, and not of the Ros variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooplehead Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 What ever happened to that scene from one of the early trailers that had Ned with a rope around his neck in front of the Iron Throne? And people were speculating that maybe it was supposed to be Brandon and they were showing his murder, or that maybe Ned was dreaming of that incident with himself in Brandon's place.Did that footage get clipped? Or is that going to work its way into one of these next episodes somehow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Warpechowski Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 You can see Selmy's head moving into the bottom right of the screen just before the edit, it's definitely his dismissal scene. Hopefully we get bad-ass Barristan slaying gold cloaks left right and centre on his way out.It would be freaking awesome if his action scene was right there when he was dismissed and he slayed ALL guards present in the room and just left.

Volderon Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Do you guys think they might introduce Selmy into Dany's storyline sooner than they did in the books? Maybe at the beginning of season 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrogant Bastard Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 If I were drawing it up, I'd have Jon riding off into the night as the cliffhanger ending for the Wall setting in Episode 9. The Wall setting in Episode 10 would begin with his friends catching up with him and bringing him back. Probably cut to another setting, and save the last scene for the following sequence:- Tyrion, told he will be appointed Hand of the King and is going to King's Landing, and taking Shae with him- Jon, informed they will be ranging in force north of the Wall- Robb, King in the North- DragonsSeriously, that's an amazing finish. I can't wait to see it, however they end up organizing it.I don't think that can be the cliffhanger ending for the Wall setting. Jon only rides off when he finds out Ned has been executed, and I'm positive Ned's execution will be the last scene of the episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then on up to the sky and credits :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrigan Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 At the very least, even if Syrio wasn't able to harm Meryn due to his armor, he should at least just be capable of dodging his attacks, don't you think? I think he just bought time for Arya, and then escaped."The First Sword of Braavos does not run.":( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Anti-Targ Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Needs More Hound :thumbsup:I thought it stood for something else, only the originator didn't know whores has a silent W.So we have 2 factions with, to a certain extent, somewhat converging interests: the NMH and the NMR. Because the first could be realised through achieving the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Anti-Targ Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 "The First Sword of Braavos does not run.":(But he can use the "I don't have a sword on me right now, let me pop out and pick one up then we can resume" escape clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexia Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 [*]Finally a San+San scene for all you NMH fans. Sandor comes for Sansa, likely to bring her to Cersei. *bouncing on toes with childish glee*I love it! Was Septa Mordane telling Sansa to run or was that a voiceover? Regardless, I am really looking forward to Sunday's episode now!Everything looks great too, looks like the wight attacked at the Wall and little Arya on the run, plus the Lamb People.... I'm looking forward to my husband's reactions; he's heard some of the storyline on audiobook but isn't familiar with everything and its pretty fun to watch some of his reactions.

roguedandelion Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Unless of course if the theories hold some merit...then he'll probably just purposely leave us in the dark. :smoking:I feel like if Syrio lived, he would have fled back to Braavos and Arya would have encountered him after spending the entire 4th book there. But then, I also thought she would have had a reunion with Nymeria during the all that time she was in the Riverlands. Regardless, I do hope he takes this chance to at least give us a hint.

Arya The Assassin Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 The preview looks great! George being the author of this episode makes it all the more exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
