Yes. Arya overhears the Ghost of High Heart strongly implying that Balon was killed by a Faceless Man hired by Euron. Since Ja'quen is the only one we know hanging around Westeros at that time, a lot of people assumed that's why he's there.

Excepting, of course, Pirates of the Caribbean 3. No one can enjoy that.

Since it's hard to show dog-warging on the show, I'm guessing they had him there for book readers who want to interpret it that way. For show watchers, they have Ghost guarding him (as he should) and then excitedly greeting him when he wakes up, so we're assured that Jon didn't come back wrong. If he came back Jon…

The story in Pyke is that he fell during a storm. The Ghost of High Heart basically said that he was assassinated by a Faceless Man sent by Euron.

I'd still bank on Ramsay killing him (or at least orchestrating it). Roose is smooth, but he has Tywin's blind spot where it comes to his kids. He created a monster with Ramsay and relied on keeping him leashed. If you poke a monster enough, he's going to eventually bite you, no matter how well you have him trained.

As soon as Tyrion said "I am their friend!" about the dragons, I went "OMFG THEY GAVE THE QUENTYN MARTELL STORYLINE TO TYRION!" Thankfully, they did not.
Also, Lyanna! Yaaaaaaaay! I'm beyond excited for the Tower of Joy next week.

Fat Walda was my sweet chubby cinnamon roll. Surrounded by evil, but staying magically pure and wonderful. Too perfect to live.

Sally, what the fuck is this please?

Besides the liver, the body has pretty damn good ways of getting rid of toxins. See: any morning after copius drinking. If our body COULDN’T get rid of toxins, we’d be dead.

I think like we’re cornered, but it’s a weird sweaty wrestling metaphor. I wonder how often he thinks of America all covered in sweat and ready to be dominated... (shudder)

It could also be that the music in Miss Saigon is notoriously awkward to sing. If she's doing a whole concert, there's really no need to make herself physically uncomfortable when she has such a wealth of other famous repertoire to choose from.

I like that theory. It's much less stressful.

Of course not.

Changing time worries me so much. Like, what if they won and she ended up never meeting Randall, so she never went to Scotland to learn about his family, ergo never meeting Jamie? And that's like the most minor change to history. What if there's no England at all when she comes back? I haven't read the books, so I'm…

My husband yells that every time I watch this show. Every. Single. Time.

Anytime Victarion mentions women...

Looks like we’ll be spending more time with the Greyjoys this season, so I’m guessing the rape quotient will go even higher. Ugh.

I don’t know what it is, but I’m obsessed with manatees. Here, have some. http://calmingmanatee.com/

Him or Marilyn Monroe.

Cool, thank you!
