They referenced the wildfire in code. When Varys asks what they have to throw at Stannis's ships, Tyrion says "pig shit," which is a callback to Bronn mocking the pyromancers a couple of episodes ago.

I could not be more tired of this arc. I understand that Dany needs more to do here, but I can't bring myself to care about Qartheen politics. Get us to the House of the Undying already and GTFO.

Yeah, I have a feeling we aren't even close to finished with this arc. That escape was such an anti-climax, and I just can't believe that they'll leave it there.

Still getting through Book 3 veeeerrrryyy slowly. Grades are in, and I have a trip coming up this week, so I expect to finish it soon.

Meh. To each their own, but I've never seen Mako's flaws as more egregious than anyone else's. I mean, Korra's been a dick to pretty much every other character on the show, but impulsiveness, arrogance, and a need to be right even when it looks like she's in the wrong are consistent parts of her development. Likewise,…

Yep. That makes perfect sense to me. And I'm willing to believe that Asami has experienced some social isolation similar to Korra's as a result of her position. Asami was clearly pursuing a friendship with Korra in this episode in spite of the fact that Korra's been kind of a dick to her so far, so I wonder if she…

I'm starting to think that the Order of the White Lotus is going to return as a third fighting force and an independent arbiter of peace. Its made up of benders and non-benders from all nations (at least it was in A:TLA), and they are now apparently an elite standing reserve army of some kind.

@The_Tuna:disqus @avclub-91546109eaf110327d50b0955865712a:disqus Yep. They are operating on the Buffy model. Book 1 was designed to be a self-contained series, so the main threads of Amon plot will almost certainly be tied off by the end of the season, though Book 2 may wind up dealing with the loose ends or some…

At the very least, I think we were supposed to know that something was about to go very wrong. You don't show a character that blithely and obliviously enjoying himself unless he's about to have the rug yanked from under his feet. That it was at someone else's expense seems intentional. In a way, that moment seemed to…
