Also, did the Hound just misguidedly waste a whole camp of innocent Bros Without Borders?!

Was anyone else as perturbed by Lady Crane ostensibly permanently disfiguring her rival actress? What'd she do, throw acid in her face or something??

Mountain working as intended

I was watching the show again from season one with my wife, who was watching for the first time. She gave up watching fairly early on out of frustration because it seemed like nothing ever went anywhere. (She especially hated how they keep switching between characters all the time in each episode)

Omg thanks for reminding me of the biggest slap in the face to faithful viewers in the history of television.

I thought they were square after Jaqen completed Arya's three free hits. But maybe she gets a pass because she had the drop on him and didn't decide to punch his ticket.

Jaqen's smug nod was about as nonsensical as Leonard Nimoy going "Oh, didn't I?" before dematerializing in the monorail episode of the Simpsons. (The difference being I don't think they intended to play it for laughs here…)

I rewound and paused to figure it out and was just as puzzled upon reviewing the instant replay.

And through that entire chase I just knew it was going to end in a dark room anyway. It was such an anticlimax.

I can't believe that was the best joke a witty guy like Tyrion could summon up to tell. That was ST:TNG levels of humor in that scene.

Jaime really isn't even the same character he started as though. It's been awhile since he summarily knocked off or banged anyone, so we don't remember the casually incestuous, child-defenestrating, cousin-strangling bastard he was.

I kinda wanted to somehow see Arya hand the Waif's ass to her in the dark, but I don't know how it would be possible without some sort of infra-red camera. Thoughtful of the Waif to close the door behind her though!

I don't even know how he ended up captured in Westeros anyway! As far as I can tell, he just rattles around in that big temple all day, euthanizing the occasional walk-in client with his Flint Michigan water fountain.

… The Planet of Cheesy Television

Jaqen H'gar works in mysterious ways.

As was I. Thank God Arya turned up a moment later to clear that up… Or did she??

The Sand Snakes died on the way back to their home planet.

I know! I was leaning forward and expectantly rubbing my palms together when Cersei said she chose violence. I wanted a bloodbath, damnit!

Not sure if I really buy Jaqen cheerfully forgiving Arya after she got free tuition at assassin school, blew off the only two assignments she was given, defied the headmaster and killed the runner up teacher's pet.

John Connor comes home to see milk all over the floor and both his parents wondering who broke in to ruthlessly stab a dozen holes in the refrigerator for some reason.
