Oh I've hated Bonnie since her refusal to take any level of accountability for Caroline being turned into a Vampire. My hatred started back when she was around and she was never sufficiently redeemed for me so I've been calling for her death for a good long while now. It's nothing to do with the last few seasons…

Part of me is assuming this is sarcastic or rhetorical, but in the event I'm wrong, who claimed to hate him?

Wow we had very different opinions on this one, and the reason behind that can be summed up quickly, "Then he proceeds to put on a fun show, switching between impersonating
Caroline, Stefan, and Alaric, and doing such a fun job of it that it
almost completely alleviated my concerns from last week about overusing
the…

I was not angry about the reward twist, I was shocked, but I certainly wasn't angry. I'll even agree that it was unfair. I thought it would be a better way to go to let Brenda go on the reward and eat but not with her loved ones. But whichever.

So basically what you're saying is that the smart thing for Robb to do in recompense for making a promise he didn't keep is to make a new promise he can't keep? As repayment for promising to marry the Fray girl and not doing so, promise Fray something you can't actually give him?

Here's the interesting thing about this show and the reviews for it, thus far most of the reviews and discourse has been about "what kind of show is this going to be? What does it do well and not so well and need to continue or discontinue?" After 4 episodes, that's not a huge problem, but it's hard to miss the fact…

As soon as I Tekada heading towards the swords, I rolled my eyes, but I also smiled. It's totally over the top (kind of even for Revenge…. maybe) but it's no more or less than I expected. And that made it kind of fun.

Wait is that not how it really works? I totally want to name my account "unnamed account."

Wrong? Really?

You bring up a point of contention I had with this episode also: after the manner in which Robb broke his promise to Fray, the man is just fine with him making the consolation prize of wedding one of his daughters to the Tully idiot? It seemed like a pretty easy acquiescence on Fray's part. There's also the other…

It was a lot to ask (Fray is clearly a lecherous pig, there's no argument there), but it was asked and accepted. He should have held himself to it. I don't disagree that he (like everyone in the world) really just wanted to grow up, fall in love, and get married. I mean he was raised to be nothing more than the first…

Peggy's kiss daydream was totally worth it for the shot of Ted reading "Something" by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Funniest part of the episode for me. 

It was Karstark when they were making their way to Riverrun.

He also decided (for good reason) to undertake an entire war against the kingdom. He led his bannermen (men whose entire livelihoods are tied to his) into a kind of rebellion against the realm. He's been declared King in the North. Yes he's held to a higher standard, he damn well should be. Given the position he finds…

See, I disagree that he would have looked too  weak. I mean I can see a sense of weakness starting to crop up around him considering a compounding of the decisions he's been making (not killing Jamie, not taking Winterfell back by force and killing Theon himself, and so on), but not on the basis of simply not killing…

I've made much this same point multiple times. But I think that it's meant to be something that his men are talking about behind his back but not saying to his face. Carstark was pointing it out a couple of times this season before Robb took his head, so I assume it is being mentioned on some level.

So am I the only one who thinks that what Aiden and Nolan were doing using Falcon's code to access the Greyson money is what caused the Initiative's plan to be set in motion? 

Took the words right out of my mouth!

"Robb’s betrayal would have made more sense if it gained them any
strategic advantage, but it didn’t, and it makes him a tough leader to
respect, honestly"

"because she realizes that tying up and abusing Donnie was likely to make him want to leave."
