@idiotking For the last time, for the very last time, if you want to squee about the books, then do it on the Experts thread. That's what it's there for.

idiotking is a jackass spoiler with a history.  He thinks he's dancing around spoilers but he's not nearly as clever or discreet as he thinks he is. It's best to smack him hard and early so he's not tempted to push it.

Serial killers don't care that they're serial killers. They're not misunderstood, confused or looking for love. I figured it was only a matter of time before Joffrey started killing hookers once he had Roz beat that other prostitute. Things were just going to escalate from there. I thought he'd end up killing Sansa or…

Theon's in the exact same spot and we have the exact same information as we did at the beginning of the episode. They're just filling time. That's what I mean by 'wheel spinning'.

Pro tip: You can tell that you're spoiling something or other if you ever mention the books in the Newbie comments.

That'll show Tywin not to throw stones.

I thought for sure Ygritte was going to die this episode, as soon as she and Jon said their "I love you"s.

Why don't you take a seat over here?

Super also led directly to the weird and adorable friendship between Steve Agee and Ellen Page.  I wish they would do more podcasts/videos-of-them-just-hanging-out-together.

It's a completely different character. He's a sad sack who plays it straight most of the way through. Everyone else gets to be a lunatic.

No, they'd been divorced for a long while. And it was amicable by all accounts.

I went to a screening of this where Gunn and Michael Rooker did a Q&A. It was a complete blast. I must've watched the DVD 5 times the weekend I got it.

Oh, god damn it. Can't anything on this show be simple and straightforward? I thought the Red God was the same monotheistic god that the easterners and Stannis  and Robin Hood Jesus all worship.

At first, I thought the woman who turned out to be Stannis' wife was Lysa Arryn, the crazy queen of the Eryie. So when the burned girl turned up, I was completely lost. Stannis has a secret love child with Lysa?! I'm terrible with faces.

I think it's a complete setup. He's just lulling Jaime/Brienne into a false sense of security. He already played some mind games with how he told Jaime that his sister is ok.

Erect penises are considered pornographic. Double standards!

Is Bolton the guy who was nice to Brienne and told Noah Taylor to shut the fuck up? If so, giiven his psychological torture of Jaime ("Your sister…is alive and well"), I think I have a guess who is torturing Theon.

So does anyone else think that Tyrion and Cersei are going to team up to take out their father?

@avclub-83de02c3cfc3634de1279cbc17a8fbae:disqus That'd be funny. But it's unlikely to happen. There are 2-3 kings out there who don't even know who Sansa is.

Her sharing a bed with her friend reminded me of the time her other friend confessed that she was in love with her. And we all know how that turned out.
