HBO: Game of Thrones (Song of Ice and Fire)

stip's post got me wondering, why didn't bran ever tell everyone what happened when jamie pushed him off the window ledge? Did bran lose his memory?

I didn't catch much of season one when they replayed the series on hbo prior to the new episodes and i can't remember what happened very well...

It is somewhat up to interpretation of whether or not he had amnesia, or if he chose not to tell because of the danger involved. When he woke, his parents had already left anyway. He did dream of it:

“In his dream he was climbing again, …. The gargoyles watched him ascend ….. Perhaps once they had been lions, but now they were twisted and grotesque. Bran could hear them whispering to each other in soft stone voices terrible to hear. He must not listen, he told himself, he must not hear, so long as he did not hear them he was safe ……. “I didn’t hear,” he wept as they came closer and closer, “I didn’t, I didn’t.”

He woke gasping, lost in darkness and saw a vast shadow looming over him. “I didn’t hear,” he whispered, trembling in fear, but then the shadow said “Hodor”, and lit the candle by the bedside, and Bran sighed with relief.”

“Some secrets are safer kept hidden. Some secrets are too dangerous to share, even with those you love and trust.” - Ned Stark, Game of Thrones

so that's from the books... Does the show follow that?

[malice]

Or stated differently, how did they handle it in the show

[Anders]

Bran awakens with no memory of what happened some weeks later. Bran begins to have a recurring dream in which a three-eyed raven flies into the crypts of Winterfell.

Total non-spoiler: Arya's storyline is awful. I can't tell who is worse to listen to between her and Bran

[Norah]

most storylines are awful at this point

Bran is the man.

Arya's storyline in the show has been bad since she left the Hound to die. Way too much fan service, though I did enjoy her practicing in the yard with Brienne.

question for the scholars amongst us. Is it prophetically significant in any way that Jamie created Bran by throwing him out the window?

No.

Because there's no point in telling it.

At this point I'm hoping Cercei wins.

I just wanted to let you know that there was star wars news. You found your way there, though.

Somehow it was probably meant to happen that way. But impossible to say why yet.

So I won't be able to watch until Wednesday. Is the leak of this thing good enough that I should seek it out now, or wait?
