A lot of great, important scenes. But things were kinda ehhh...until that ending. omg.

I mean, everyone and their mom knew it was coming, but who knew it was gonna be that awesome?

they still talkin bout POD!!!!! :rollin

he mus be putting it in the but
Nah, they said he was doing stuff they couldn't describe. Maybe he's the only one in King's Landing that can unlock their squirting abilities 8o. Or he could've been acting like a gentleman to them and doing stuff like massaging their feet and shoulders.

The scene of the 3 dragons flying over the Unsullied army was pure dopeness :eek :smokin.

I didn't realize that the slaver was speaking High Valyrian. I remember a bunch of languages being spoken in the Free Cities, not sure though.

Pretty solid episode. Even though the end was predictable, the way it was done was really good. Next 6 episodes should be insane with a lot of unpredictable events.
 
Good to see some action back in the show...

Scene with the unsullied was executed well

Mormont went out fighting... And who knew varys was gangsta like that? Getting revenge priority mail with delivery confirmation

No one else would be able to afford all 8000 slaves. And if they could(Lannisters), they would already have an army of their own. A dragon was probably only way he was giving it all away, including his whip.

Either way he thought she a was dumb broad, and if she was a male/someone he respected, he might of been smart enough to send the slaves outside the walls and make the trade inside where he is safe. But either way dragon can fly and eat his face anyways, so he was screwed no matter what.

Varys is like the damn Godfather. His connections run deep and he has eyes literally everywhere. Kinda crazy considering like he said, he was turned into a eunuch and thrown out in the streets and now is part of the King's Inner Council. He's playing chess with Little Finger and already trying to block what moves he's putting into place.
 
If I remember correctly, Janos Slynt was sent to the Wall. My theory is that he and Jon Snow would be competing to be the LC.

Pissed they're saving the fight between Dondarrion and the Hound for next week. Still a solid episode.
 
This was a good episode. More interesting, and probably important, things happened in this ep than last week's, but I think last week's was a lot better handled. This kinda felt choppy and all over the place, This swung hard with the ending, but before that it felt all over the place and choppy.

Speaking of, I don't feel bad for Jamie. A part of me wants to, cuz of all the ugliness and pain this last week, and those images...of people losing limbs. Had me walking around imagining it. :{ But no, he's a character and a ****** up one at that. And there are very few terrible things he hasn't done or wouldn't do.

And it's good that they made a clear distinction between the Flayed Men and Brotherhood without Banners. It just seemed like real similar groups loosely looking out for the North, but man these flayed dudes ain't about decency...or order. And they're with Robb? Goes to show that even the good guys aren't wholly good. This show is about more than numbers. It's not a bunch of nameless, faceless people who go forth in the name of king...or queen when they talk about armies and forces. It's psychos like Roose Bolton and the Mountain...and Jaime. And the Unsullied. Baby killers are in now? I guess, it's all shades of grey...beggars can't be choosers..

It makes the Brotherhood without Banners all the more interesting. What are they? The Angels of Death? That whole scene reminded me of the Vale of Arryn. It's funny how far the show has fallen into ugliness, that the weird thing now is people being noble and standing for something. My dude variant Nick Fury is about that, though. Who is he? That whole speech was pretty awesome.

In some ways, this felt like a "be careful what you wish for" episode. They gave almost every fan who ever *****ed about blah blah blah favorite character not getting screentime, something to be happy about and more. I mean, Varys went in. Him explaining his castration to Tyrion. :{ It all felt real random and out of nowhere...but bunk that, what the ******g **** with that dude in the box? Locke's dad showing up on the island. 8o I don't like all this magic in the show, cuz a part of what made it so good is that that stuff was always on the fringe and in the past. I like it when they accent the story with little "do you believe?" moments. Like Dany is season 1. But if all of the sudden it's all out Harry Potter and Camelot out there. >D :{

And Roz. I know she's not in the book, but she can always stay. Says something in an ep with fan favorites, that...Shae's nowhere to be found.

And the Tyrells are welcome at all times. It sorta feels like this has all been one endless day in Kings' Landing. Everyone just picking up where they left off mid-sentence, with Cersei being salty that a better, happier royal family moved in and that they're showing out and making it look easy. Margaery's already Princess Diana. And if she can save Sansa, that's not a bad month. And Granny Tyrell doesn't have to go at anyone with venom to get her point across, like a certain someone. Her and Varys talking was awesome. "He would see this country burn, if he could be king of the ashes." That's a great quote. Even when there's peace, the next fight is already warming up.

And as if that wasn't enough, having Tywin give Cersei a piece of his mind was the icing. No one cares about your brother as much as you. "You're not as smart as you think you are." Where the gifs at? :lol

Between that and Brienne telling Jamie to get the sand outta his vagina, it's nice to see the Lannisters off-balance...Bad things are coming when your day job is pissing off Cersei, though. She laying in the cut, waiting for a chance, I know it. :{

Speaking of waiting for a chance. I hate North of the Wall. It sucks. Ygritte was the only good thing about it. Mance is starting to come on, but that's two people we see once in a blue moon. I don't know if Sam is awesome in the book or something, but I don't like him on this show. They didn't earn that whole scene at all. They didn't earn that there's been a battle up there. Or why any of that was important.

It just happened. It came outta nowhere, there was almost no buildup, and when it happened, it was kinda just like: "Oh...Okay...I didn't know you were allowed to do that." I get it, if the book sells it better, but I didn't read that and this is a TV show. I read Harrenhal, and even though they changed a lot, they sold it last season. They didn't sell whatever the hell this was. Just...the nasty old guy died, and that's good. But Lord Commander was that guy. Was this how it went down in the book? I mean, sure he mighta still died, but was there more to it? Did they build him up before it happened? Cuz this feels as weak as Qhorin Halfhand's end.

And now we're stuck with Sam and Cassie. 8o :{

I can get this much from it. And this show has shown time and again. Maybe it's not saying, be grateful, because things could get worse. But this show has made it firmly known, that everything looks one way from a low perch. The old evils maybe stayed, because they were the lesser of evils. This dude fed his baby sons to the monsters to keep his own kind of order. And look...he's gone now, but things got worse for the...good people. All you can do in life is hold onto the peace you can manage for as long as you can and see beyond the face of evil. I mean, Jaime looks like the nicest guy, but he's just a monster of a different kind.

That's probably what made it so sweet that Theon got trolled by Simon. :rollin Simon's trollface has gotta be a gif somewhere. 8o

And the ending. It was predictable, but it was so damn good. I didn't expect it to be that massive, or to look that nice, or to get that awesome that quick. We all knew Mr. I like the curve of her ***, wasn't long for this world, but damn they know how to scale this show up. That's a good sign. And I loved the ending music for a change.

sidenote: can we talk about how Bran started shaving already?

And this show didn't miss Mel and Stannis. I hope they fall back for a while. They feel like this season's do nothin Dany.

MrO, exactly.. it was pretty obvious once the slave master kept  insulting Dany that it wouldn't just be ignored... but despite it being obvious, I didn't expect it to be that awesome.

God damn goosebumps when they started banging their weapons on the ground.

A lot of great scenes... Tywin and Cersei, old lady Tyrell and Varys, Margaery and Sansa, Tyrion and Varys, Brienne and Jaime, then the whole Brotherhood and the Hound. All done so well, great conflicts and desires between all the characters. Really great episode.
