She doesn't really see the angles and still isn't playing the game even after all this time. In the GoT universe, that's the kiss of death. I think she's a goner and I won't miss her much myself. Most of the other characters on the show are a lot more dynamic and proactive.

Robb is a good leader, but perhaps not good enough. He was thrust into the role prematurely and has already made some blunders that could be his undoing. I really don't see him surviving the next season and a half.

There was an interesting shot last night where Jorah looked at her, but only saw her dark silhouette against the sky. To me it seemed like a subtle and foreboding hint about her future. She's come a long way from being her brother's play thing, but maybe she'll take things a bit too far on the other end of the

Remember in her warlock dream towards the end of season 2 she enters the iron throne room only to find it covered in snow. As bad ass as the dragons are supposed to be, don't forget that the white walkers are supposed to be this unbeatable juggernaut in their own right. So by the time she reaches Westeros, they might

I figured the title was most likely a reference to Benjen Stark. I guess he might not be a popsicle just yet though. We'll have to wait and see.

Methinks these characters are on borrowed time:

I'm pretty sure it will happen. I think there were clips of it in some of the preview videos or character bios on the official GoT YouTube channel.

I was wondering how Jon Snow would balance his conflicting loyalties. What this does is clear a path for him to stay buddy-buddy with Mance Rayder and abandon his Castle Black duties without guilt.

It's a shame to waste all those good slaves, Khaleesi. You could have sold them for a tidy profit and gone back to Bear Island to be my queen, Khaleesi.

My guess is that Hot Pie will end up becoming a Meat Pie.

Tyrion, do you want me to use the Spanish accent?

Stannis got dissed pretty hard by his lady.

No, Vito Corleone was just REALLY pissed.

+1 for the carnage.

Next episode: Jamie Lannister discovers that he is a warg.

No mention of Littlefinger's imminent courtship of Lady Stark's sister? That promises to be all sorts of awkward. I'm imagining him sitting in her lap, sucking on her teet the next time we see him. 

Everyone's given one special thing.

Tywin: Hands off my boy!
Starks: We'll never hand him over!
Tywin: But I'm the Hand of the King!
Jamie: Cersei, give me a hand job.
Cersei: Only because you're handsome.
Jamie: The things I do for love.

He tried his hand at directing, but should probably stick to writing.

The Starks will never hand over Jamie Lannister!
