I feel like Bolton has seen firsthand Robb's weakness in that he is not totally committed to winning the war and is soft because he treats prisoners too well. Robb's inability to control his mother might play into this as well. He's probably going to flip to the Lannisters at the right time for him. Maybe he wants to…

You forgot Tormund volunteering sex tips to Jon.

Well Joer took most of the fighting men and that was about 300 men, so there can't be more than a few hundred left and a lot of them stewards and recruits. Their fortifications are their main advantage and a small raiding force should be able to sneak in and open the gates.

She really just wanted to blurt out, "You know my brother's gay, right? I mean everyone and their mother knows this. This innocent act of yours is just some running gag, right?"

Does Tywin Lannister look like a bitch to you?
What?
Say what again!

Also, now that they're south of the Wall, it's pretty clear that he knows a lot more than she does. Like the difference between a windmill and a castle. Or the history of wilding invasions that she just ignores.

The rug really tied the whole room together.

*Tywin takes a couple steps, turns around* "Your grace." *walks away, smirks at camera*

I fell in love with Ygritte this episode. It was downright adorable the way she mistook the windmill for a castle. Also loved the whole 'why should women faint at the sight of blood when we see more of it than men."

The Jaime/ Locke relationship has shades of Ron/ Wes Mantooth.

I was pleasantly surprised they let her linger like that the entire scene. Well at least Robb has great taste in women in addition to battlefield acumen. Everything else, not so much.

Waste? We got a surplus of nudity, at least for this episode.

I can't be the only one who got flashbacks of Anchorman during the bear fight. I was kind of hoping a dire wolf would have jumped into the pit to end it. Or at least have the bear jump out and rip one of Locke's arms off.

I've still got money on a Merman.

I've actually done a variation on that. For some reason the topic of conversation veered to bacon and I said, "I only eat turkey bacon." *pause* "Because I'm a muslim." Of course, at the time I'm having probably my third beer of the night. They point that out and we have a really surface discussion of Islam. Also, I'm…

Agreed about the actors, but you're gonna need the names to sell such an abstract concept to the mainstream.

***spoilers for Homeland***

I could actually see Greengrass directing that one too.

Might as well call it Sea Hostage.

It was a pretty hilarious surprise seeing him pop up during a recent rewatch of Groundhog Day. Those Wrestlemania tickets sure did make his day.
