You do if the failure is big enough, and this one was. If you want someone poisoned, blown up, an old man stabbed? He's your man. Anything else, no - he doesn't seem like much of a wartime consiglieri.

Oh, sorry, my mistake!

Do all these places have secret tunnel entrances? They should really stop doing that.

We need Davos and Bronn together - that would be like chocolate and peanut butter.

Why? Of course he'd rather not be a dwarf.

Considering they're at war with these guys it's about on par with bribing a couple of Nazis instead of killing them.

That explains a lot.

That warhammer kind of bugs me - it's about ten times bigger than any real warhammer and even if you had arms like tree trunks they'd get tired in five minutes in a battle swinging that massive thing.

I'd say they're about even.

We know they're bad at it, that's why Samwell left. That maester who counted all the steps, etc., is an extreme example but it's clearly what they all do. Archmaester Ebrose is content to fill books with the weights of organs. I can see why this society has been scientifically and technologically stagnant for…

My favorite Davos line from this episode is "Nothing fucks you harder than time!" Too true, Davos.

Qyburn's head should be on a spike by now, given how spectacularly his shit dragon solution worked out.

I wonder how Jamie and Bronn floated in all that armor.

Both, especially the latter. People like you who respond with comments like that are just avoiding having to think. You want to see yourself as this enlightened person, or at least for others to see you this way - not because you are, but because you think that's the way the wind is blowing. You're just desperate…

It's been a while since I've read them, but I have a feeling that's not true - in the whole history of dragons, only Targaryens were able to ride them? What about the Valyrians?

Next you'll be saying "Hater's gonna hate" or something.

I picked it so people like you would have something to say.

A lot of characters have this problem of wildly fluctuating IQ levels.

The scorpio was operated by one man, but this isn't a scorpion or a ballista - it's a big crossbow. It could still be operated by one man. It probably shouldn't be very effective against a dragon, though - Roman legions had 60 scorpio, and as far as we know they weren't facing anything like that. :-)

That makes me like him more.
