The Hodor thing was very well done, I did not see that coming at all.

Just saw that part.  Good bit.

The meeting between Sansa and Littlefinger underlined what a weak plot it was device for Littlefinger to hand Sansa over to the Boltons.  There was no possible advantage to be gained from it.

if he honestly didn't know about ramsay's true nature and thought of him as some normal dude, it kind of makes sense.

Dammit it Branikan Starkwalker! You were the chosen one! Why'd you have to be a douche and try to skip ahead in your training? Now you got your teacher killed, your friends butchered, and you're headed down a dark path!

The Ironborn coronation thing was cool. Also Sophie Turner acted the hell out of that scene with Littlefinger.

The Danny and Jorah scene was a tear jerker. By the way, can horses can grey scale?

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

he could have known and hoped Sansa would get killed.
or he could have not known and simply wanted to cement an alliance with the Bolton, the strongest force in the North.
Or he could have known, hope he would be the one rescuing Sansa to keep her under his thumb.

Really great episode, imho. Not a single scene that I disliked. A bit surprised Tyrion bought so easily into the Red Priestess' bullshit, but I suppose, like all the Lannister kids, he is overconfident and thinks he can control a "religion for the small folk".

Hodor is [spoiler]now the most heartbreaking and noble character of the show.[/spoiler] :(

Yup. As with the death of Oberyn ("If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention"), Game of Thrones once again delivers a kick-in-the-stomach foreshadowing line this week, with Jaqen saying (I paraphrase) "Would you have the death take only the wicked and leave the innocent behind"?  :cry:

Edit: In completely unrelated news, I only now realised GRRM's joke in the name of "Molestown". :bleeding:  :lol:

Great episode. The Hodor scene made me realise that we book readers are in for some Red Wedding style surprises from now on. It scares and excites me for the rest of this season.

Yup. And remember, "if you think there is a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention."  :ph34r:

The saddest part of this all: we are half done with this season. And then it's one more year of waiting, and the last season.  :cry:

There are two more seasons scheduled.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
