It had two purposes. It turned the audience against Trant. Arya is about to murder Trant in cold-blood, therefore the audience has to look at Trant as a someone who deserves killing and not just a soldier obeying orders. Otherwise, Arya becomes a villain. No one weeps for whores and spiders, but pedophiles don't…

He didn't like unstable at all to me. He looked like a well paid man of low character….exactly what you would expect to find in a brothel.

Why???? Why do pimps and whores do anything….for the money. Trant rolled in with shiny new armor and two Lannister men in tow. You know they were paid. Pimps and whores can see that a mile away. Moreover, that wouldn't be the first time a place like that heard the complaint of "too old". They would hear that all…

Fuck Stannis

MAJOR SPOILERS if you have not watched the X-Files

Yes, there is someone else who does.

And some people spoil their children, it's a weakness, not a strength.

I don't apologize for rape, but I don't join the crowd when it goes on a witch-hunt either.

Bating her how, by listening to Cersei tell her about the Raines of Castemere, when Cersei tried to befriend her. Or by learning how much vitriol Cersei aimed at her brother when he tried to befriend Cersei after their betrothal.

Spoilers much.

I agree that this is the most boring GoT season so far. However, Sansa's honeymoon is not her being a victim, it's just her playing the game. She will make a move soon enough. The Boltons, all of them other than Sansa, will get their comeuppance. It does feel as though the writers are deliberately slowing things…

You're wayyy too soft dude. It's not like he hit her with a hammer, and he only hit her when she told him lies.

I guess so. Hunting a barefoot woman, who did everything you ever asked of her, through the woods with bow and arrows and hunting dogs is okay; but telling you wife to take her clothes off having sex with her after she verbalizes no objection starts and removing said clothes is purely unacceptable.

But he didn't hold a gun to her head, nor a sword, nor any weapon at all. Nor did he threaten her.

Arya can't serve the many faced god because Arya already has her god. His name is Death.

Except that nobody tried to humiliate her. To be honest they put her in the best position that she could possible in, mother to the King, and wife to the heir of Highgarden whom everybody knows prefers men to women and won't give a crap what she does or who she does it with, provided she gives birth to one trueborn…

What a Afartherroom said. Olenna was amazed that Cersei would try to pull something so transparent and suicidal.

Which was another plot device that I'm still mad about. Tywin spent his whole trying to teach his sons to sleep with proper ladies to birth children that had a stake in the welfare of the family. Spent his whole life trying to get Tyrion not to sleep with whores. And at the old age of 67, what do we find, he has a…

Have you ever played a game that you are good at against someone who is really bad at it? I have and sometimes they catch you off-guard because they do things that so obviously stupid that a good player rules them out. But these stupid things rarely result in victory because….well….because they are stupid.

Cause the gold ain't worth a damn, if there is no food to buy with it.
