    you are right degag there was no boobies at all in this ep
    it better not happen again:pac:

    It was indeed a nudity-free episode. Sometimes politics trumps sex.

    I had assumed that Oberyn Martell was writing a dirty limerick until he said it was for his daughter.

    It wasn't power line-free though.

    As Jon said himself in the last episode; he would have stopped them.
    I can't remember. Does Jon say he knows what Bran is doing that he is determined to stop him? Bran himself doesn't even seem to know!

    Anybody else think the reveal in the conversation between Lysa and Littlefinger was awful? It felt very forced, almost as if she was talking directly to the audience.

    Yes, it was very obviously expository dialogue (as was Robin Arryn's "the Lannisters poisoned my father" line before it) - she wouldn't need to spell out the scheme to the person who masterminded it!

    i still dont no how people spot these things they must go through each scene and look out for stuff.

    Did he not take control of Hodor last season, I think it was when the wildlings were outside and he needed to keep Hodor quite.

    No, he took control of Hodor briefly in an episode last season, when they were holed up in the mill with Jon and the wildlings outside, and Hodor wouldn't stop "Hodoring". This is the second time (that we know of), and the first time he's done anything substantial.

    He took over Hodor before.
    He should go round walloping people on the noggin and make a zombie army for himself. :-)

    Hodor waking up to seeing blood on his hands makes me wonder how many times Bran can pull that stunt with him before he gets Hodored himself!

    If this episode has thought me anything, its that I really must go back and watch the first 3 seasons again. The Littlefinger reveal went completely over my head. I had no idea that Catelyns sisters hubby was poisioned, or that a letter was sent. I havent seen series 1 since it was on three years ago so I can only recall the major happenings. Thats why its great that I can pop in here to get the blanks filled in though :)

    The Arya and the Hound did not progress the story all that much, they could have easily left that out this week. Good to see the Daenerys story show that not all is rosy in the cities she liberated, adds a nice bit of realism to proceedings to show that its not all happy ever after.

    Hard to believe we are half way through already.

    No Bran never told Sam.

    Jon just said that he would have gone after Bran when Sam told him had he not been injured.

    Could the ship that Cersei pointed out as Mycella's gift be the one that Shae was sent away on?

    Anyone know what happened to the Dothraki?- I thought there were some in Daenerys retinue but they only ever refer to now is her army of unsullied and the mercenary outfit.

    There were very few of them left by the time they got to Qarth. They had wandered the Red Waste for a number of episodes in season 2.

    I think Daenerys even killed one of her hand maidens by locking her in a big safe along with the rich guy trying to marry her.

    What was left after that, and up to now, are just a few random Dothraki as far as I can make out.

    I got the impression she was long gone. Did Cersei not say that boat was built specially? Why would Shae be on it? (unless she was got to)

    She only got away the morning of the wedding though, the search for Sansa prob would have meant all boats around Kingslanding waters were searched.. very possible she was found.. argh, I'm worried now

    If Bran can easily warg into Hodor, does that mean that he may be able to warg into Wildlings, Dragons and even White Walkers? Could be a huge factor if so. Now I really want to know what the 3 eyed Raven is all about. Possibly will help him warg better? I really don't know...

    I'd say warging into dragons is a definite possibility.

    I'd hope so, I mean if he can't warg into any of them then WARG, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing, say it again.

    The 3 eyed raven is Bran, Jojen reed tells Bran that last season.

    I must admit, I let out a audible groan when Bran chose to follow the 3 eyed feckin raven. Seriously tired of that story line. I figure it has to be important in the future but right now I'm tired of those kids.

    Can somebody remind me where those precocious little twits came from anyway? I was under the impression they were pretty handy in a scrap at the start, but now they're just helpless babe in the woods material.
    Are there no bears or something Bran can wargasm his way into the brain of and smash enemies to bits?
