What did Sam actually do that was badass though... beside crossbow one guy through the head, that was it. He read a few books. Got a bit of sleep when the others were on their watch. Kissed Gilly .Ran around a bit. Ducked behind a wall and fed Pyp arrows. (disliked it when he said to Pyp "oh is the fight won then?"...don't be so sarcastic and get up off yer fat arse and start killing afew yourself so
!!)Went up and down in the lift to get Jon. Released Ghost. That was about it. Alot of ducking and diving. He's craven.:p 0 -

Craven would have been hiding with Gilly (like Slynt). He's no warrior, we all know that. No mean feat to get across a courtyard with dozens of people looking to kill anyone in black. And he does make a fine wide target!0 -

Hiding behind a wall feeding Pyp arrows whilst the rest of his brothers put themsleves in the firing line, and then being a sarcastic pr*ck about it, is craven to me. He even had a go at Ollie. "You stay down here, arm yourself and slay a few wildlings..I just have to go to the sanctuary of the wall to deliver a message." Craven out!

You might as well ask what Maester Aemon did - he would be about as useful as Sam in a fight. Doesnt mean he is craven though.0 -

Fantastic episode. The opening credits should just have gone to Castle Black and stayed there
Was this the first episode that was pretty much all set in one location? I know Blackwater focused on one event, but there were several locations in within KL,aboard various ships, the mud gate and the riverbank etc. 0 -

the way I saw it the Crossbows are a 2 man operation, Sam loading and Pyp firing them, thats like asking what the second guy on a vickers machinegun does.
the Sarcasm was integral in demonstrating how much Sam had grown as a Man, rather than cower in a corner he is composed enough to crack jokes and be an effective part of a combat team
as for Ollie, I saw that as more a case of telling him to Stop being afraid and arm himself, the Wildlings were intent on killing him, so that was a reasonable piece of advice.
as for sending someone else to the top of the wall, who else could he send?
but the most Zen Badass(TM) thing that he did was confront his fears and internal cowardice and choosing to do his duty above all else. the exchanges with Gilly and Pyp were insightful. especially when compared to Janos Slynt.0 -
