Yes I remember. Striking when someone as confident and assured as the Red Priestess does a double-take when she sees Patchface.

Why the Ned hate? Makes no sense. The arguments are BS.

It's why he took so long.

Seemed to me that Dany was moved by what he said and how he was grateful to her. She believes she's a Joan of Arc type, destined for greatness with her Dragon magic and blood of Old Valyria, etc. But she's also very empathetic and kind, something that won Jorah Mormont over.

Yeah good point. On the other hand, I think it's trying to be light and campy, think Spartacus, but it doesn't always work. I like that they try.

"Yah?"

Claudia playing Pac-man was the best. She now knows the game is up, the Soviets have lost. 10 years ahead of the Soviets in tech.

I didn't even notice. Too busy looking at her body like some stupid Pavlov's dog.

I don't understand all of the Valkyrie hate. Is it jealousy on Kensi's behalf? Hate of the new girl? Blonde-hate?

And with a lamer sigil and words, a rose and "Growing strong."

I love this show. SyFy said it will be back in 2014.

@Sean C.

Another mind-blowing episode. The writing (and acting! and everything else) was so perfect.

I wouldn't say it's a "textbook" case. She's bitter about it which is a natural reaction. (It's much more than "discrimination".) Tywin tells Arya she reminds him of Cersei, so she's strong willed and is not a girly girl.

I liked how Phillip explained how selling insurance on TV was capitalism. Capitalism and consumer society (or spycraft) can be denigrated (by say Soviet propaganda) as living in motel/hotel, eating out of vending machines, where everything is reduced to money and having no home. And they're watching a show about the…

I liked how Keri Russell's commie agent was getting her groove on in the bar!

I thought it was the best scene of the episode, it was so confusing. Maybe he was being a dick, but he had been supportive to her in other ways. My guess is that he wanted more from her - something explicit - in the way of saying "i want you back" or "i'm over it" or something like that rather than her vaguely…

Low expectations but nothing much better on so why complain. It was entertaining. I do like Mayor Amanda! The only thing that didn't quite fit was when the motorcycle gang came riding in what if the the bomb had gone off as expected?

I disagree with this line of thinking about the Starks. It's basically a "blame the victim" way of thinking about things. "She was asking for it." etc. It's tough talk that's not really tough as it seems.

That's all the realm is now: backbiting and scheming and ass-licking and money grubbing.
