Katydid Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 This entire episode was one for the shippers!NCW and GC continue to amaze me, as do the showrunners with how RIGHT they're getting the relationship between Jaime and Brienne. :bowdown:I was wondering whether they would choose the bathhouse setting for Jaime's confession, and I'm so happy they did. GRRM wrote that episode as a cleansing for Jaime, in more ways than one, and the show absolutely nailed it.They added a line of dialogue to his story that I actually loved: when he asked Brienne, if it had been her "precious Renly" who had asked her to burn women and children alive, would she have kept her oath. That line really put it in perspective for her character, and the way GC played that moment was beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newstar Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Amazing. The actors played it so beautifully. And the shot of Jaime fainting in Brienne's arms at the end! So gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jons nissa Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 yes, great scene. i like how their relationship is being portrayed in general. also, did anyone notice next week's trailer? jamie and brienne are at a table and roose says something that is upsetting i guess. brienne starts to reach for her knife and jaime stills her hand.wondering what that's about?

Darth Pipes Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 That scene where Jaime seems ready to break down when he talks about Ned judging him was a high point of an amazing scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsLibby Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I know Dinkledge is the only actor who's getting any recognition for this series (not fair at all), but NCW is running circles around everyone this year (except maybe Dance). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's nailing every second of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montey14 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 If i remember the scene correctly from the books....Jaime was getting kind of light headed from the heat of the baths and the pain medication the more he spoke the more he was begining to kind of fade....the culmination coming when he mentioned Stark....and wanted to be called Jaime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He muses on the loss of his hand and wonders "who am I now?" When Brienne starts yelling for the guards ("the Kingslayer!") he thinks to himself "my name is Jaime." Having him say it aloud added so much to that moment in the scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towerofjoy Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 yes, great scene. i like how their relationship is being portrayed in general. also, did anyone notice next week's trailer? jamie and brienne are at a table and roose says something that is upsetting i guess. brienne starts to reach for her knife and jaime stills her hand.wondering what that's about?Am guessing that this is where Roose sends Jaime to Kings Landing to his father but demands no exchange for Starks. Will mirror the books I'm sure.Oh Robb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybobbie Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 The scene was superb, they both were so brilliant in it that I'm going to sleep very late this Sunday to rewatch the episode on HBO HD only to see it again. I agree with everyone that posted that Nikolaj Coster-Waldau deserves an emmy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Godric Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I agree that this scene was brilliant. Nicolaj has been doing a magnificent job this season with Jaime's transformation, and he really does deserve recognition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
