Whereas I wondered if it would be some sort of (attempted) deathtrap.

A man has guard duty.

It's her and the guy who plays Sir Davos. Definitely worth a listen. Ep 2.4.

Yeah, I heard that on the Stark Raven Mad podcast a few weeks ago and now can't un-hear it. I suppose "the trees" = "the fighting pits". And possibly thneeds = freedom.

From her second season commentary (on the shadow-birthing scene): "Below the waist, that's a latex dummy. From the waist up: Pure Van Houten!"

I still treasure the memory from the short-lived show Harsh Realm, when evil dictator Terry O'Quin's henchman brings the captured heroes to him, and Terry asks "How were they captured?". The henchman leers and says: "A bounty hunter brought them in…what should we do with him?", obviously hoping for torture & kill.…

True, so we can look forward to them putting someone in a death trap and then leaving the room.

Yeah, even though I wasn't sure who those guys were supposed to be I decided to be optimistic with "speaking". And of course there's…(big inhale)…HER DRAGONS!

Oh great point. Not so good for the Seven.

"As you and I already know…"

It's strictly a show theory.

And people should have learned by now that if you kill the King you just get another damned king.

"I actually prefer his solo work to what he did with The Smiths-"

The Unsullied's mission wasn't to defend themselves, it was to keep the peace, Which, since they're not being well led for the purpose, makes them very easy to lead into ambushes.

My pet theory is that they're out of work gladiators, possibly in league with The Lorax, who was meeting with Dany right as they arrived.

I think Marg is realizing she needs to train the King up a little rather than just get him on her side. At least I hope so.

Unless I'm forgetting someone there's no speaking character left in Dany's court from before she picked up the Unsullied & Messendei.

I see her stabbing Trant, and he turns back into Syrio, who killed Trant all those years ago and has been wearing his face. His last words: "Revenge is empty, boy. Revenge is saying to Death: 'Today'."

Maceless Fan?

Or he's lying. Though I may be giving him too much credit.
