Panties! GLORIOUS PANTIES!

Aerys did a bunch of terrible shit too and he would've kept doing it if not for two dudes liking the same northern chick.

I think it was easier to ignore because it was part of a montage. There were other things happening.

That's my rationale as well. Walder didn't recognize the girl and she looked vaguely foreign, so I just assumed Arya grabbed one (or more) of the faces in the hall before leaving.

Varys has to outdo Littlefinger in everything, even teleporting.

I was about to say that. They have at least two assassins (that we've seen) who I imagine would be even more efficient at killing Cersei, what with their years of experience and access to face-changing magic and whatnot.

They really shouldn't have retconned Tommen's age, because I can totally see a younger kid being that shortsighted, esp. now that he's been kept away from Cersei at all times apparently.

One could argue they are reminding us of the Red Wedding so we can have the proper level of catharsis when the Freys finally die, and Beric hinted at the Brotherhood going north, which could be just a case of the show using characters we already know for something that happens down the line with people who only exist…

Under Beric, sure, but as soon as LSH took over they became all about wiping out anybody even tangentially connected to the Red Wedding.

She has 62 good men. Goodmenbowl, get hype.

Ramsay feels like the perfect target for shadow baby shenanigans. Are all of Melisandre's spells one-time use only?

Without LSH, Show!Brotherhood isn't about killing Freys and Lannisters, it's about just plain killing because dark.

Do we ever see them using fake blood in the show?

It had at least one, the Mad King killing Ned's father and brother. Someone posted a picture from this scene above. It was in the very first teaser for the show.

Yeah, I've since seen a breakdown of the visions and the actor is a different guy.

I'm thinking Cersei is going to make it go boom before this season ends. We probably saw this happening in the vision itself. The Red Keep (and maybe a big portion of the city) gonna burn.

As someone already said, Jaime, the Captain of the Kingsguard, has no idea where all of his Kingsguard are.

I agree, but it's weird that Bran is seeing the Mad King the wildfire if it has nothing to do with him.

Bronn.

So I'm guessing those Mad King shots were from the unaired pilot, because they looked strangely different from how the show usually looks, and since they were so brief it would be an easy way to save money, but I don't know.
