I agree that the first 40 minutes of the episode was a little slow, but there were a lot of plot points building even in the slow parts.

the last 20 though were awesome. Loved how even while dying Lord Mormont was a bad ass grabbing that punk in a choke hold.

Dany! DRACARYS!
I so love how she knew that Kraznys was talking shit about her the whole time and the she frees all the slaves and serves him up well done!

That was one of my favorite moments of the series so far.

That was an intense episode. Front to back solid gold.

Last scene was absolutely killer.


I loved the look on the guy's face when he brought Theon back and they did a pretty good at making you feel sorry for Jamie. So far they have knocked this season out of the park.

I knew it was coming but the scene at Astapor was really, really well done.

I really dug when theon said "My real father died in kings landing" it was such a moment, then back on the X, what is that X torture device called again?

That scene was damn near perfect, I think. Felt exactly the same as when I read it a few years ago.

I loved how you didn't even really need the subtitles to get the gist of what Dany was saying.

But what the fuck is going on with Theon!?

am i the only one that hates sansa? her character is really annoying in how stupid/naive she is.

anyway, i hope arya has a hand in dog's death and i'm thinking that little theon escapade was to reveal his true colors to his father & sister. i'd have to guess his torturing days are thru, as are all his days b/c he's officially got no flag now.

In hind sight, whore was probably a poor choice of words. Pawn? I basically meant everyone was trying to marry her off (whore her out) to influence the Starks.

yeah, she's definitely a pawn and knows it, but she's too young to know what to do about it. In the show I believe she's supposed to be only about 13/14

Nice. Immediately after the last episode my wife asked if there was somewhere on the Internet we could get an advance copy of the next episode.
