A Thread of A Series of Books of A Song of Ice and Fire (BOOK AND TV SPOILERS HERE)

And then, right at the last second, they cut his dick off. And that's it for this season.
Also, Maisie Williams was left-handing that bow.
Roose Bolton arrives home and they compare notes to see who had the gnarliest troll that year.
The Boltons - Greatest practical jokers in the north, for 496 years running
not-Arya
They'll probably have some scenes with him and Tywin, just to get the two hard assed bastards in the same room and to highlight his betrayal
Yeah, I'm thinking he'll head to King's Landing, arrive sometime around the Purple Wedding and take ahold of not-Arya and then head north. Theon becomes Reek during this time. Then they both meet up at some point around mid-late season and the writers figure out something to occupy the North till the end of ASOS. (cause seriously, basically nothing happens with those people post-Red-Wedding in ASOS as I remember)
Already happened. That's why (in the books) Bran sends whathisname out after the Bastard and returns with Reek.
That happened before Theon took Winterfell, but I'm sure they can make it work whenever.
Walder tells him he will give a bride price of his daughters weight in silver, so Roose chooses the fattest one.
Thus showing why Roose is an interesting cold-blooded SOB.
They look related and weaselly and it's fantastic
Maybe it's a hint that if lord Frey truly wanted things to work out, he'd send more important people than Lame Lothar to bring his terms. Or maybe it's just another little nod at the book readers. Maybe both.
Jaime will push him out a window
Well how 'bout that.
It's impossible for sorcery (what she does). Not for the Lord of Light.
Wolf in sheep's clothing, that one.
"There is not a man of us who does not at times need a helping hand to be stretched out to him, and then shame upon him who will not stretch out the helping hand to his brother."
Deep down I hope this will end in an epic battle between the Brotherhood Without Banners and the White Walkers. Zombie punchfest anyone? (and don't tell me that Dondarrion is technically a revenant or some shit like that).
The timing between "Oh my god, you figured it out!" and "Oh, yes, I'm a liar" was amazing.
Theon really doesn't have his wits about him right now. He named Ramsay as the Karstark that Jaime killed trying to escape, then said he was the brother. The brother that would have been killed by Jaime when he was captured, which Theon was present for.
I don't think this error was an accident on the writers part.
This is like the best worst prediction ever. 8->
It's great, isn't it?
There's another "Brienne is not long for this world" post now, too. If it is filmed right (and I see no reason to think it won't be), next week should be epic.
I preferred "if you think this ends happily you haven't been paying attention" (or whatever the exact quote was), should just be repeated at the beginning of every episode from here on
That theory's got a few holes in it, though.
Also, from the show thread,
8->
I'm betting they will still use Jeyne Poole. It's easy enough to say that she has been a serving girl since season 1 and not a big deal to recast.
That is what they did in the books too wasnt it? She dissapeared after book 1 and then showed up much later out of nowhere as "not-Arya".
Very good episode, I like the showing of the obsidian dagger, the lame footed frey, the Tywin/Queen of Thorns fight/argument/crazy time and the madness of Bolton.
Does anyone have any ideas what Melisandre was talking about with the eyes? Could it be about her being a warg or something?
Actually no. Jeyne Poole and Sansa were locked in a room together during and after the fighting. When Cersei found out, she gave Jeyne to Littlefinger because she didn't want any friendly faces near Sansa, so to better manipulate her.
Ahh yes. She was the one crying non stop.
Shit Theon, get it together!
Now I'm hoping Sam kills the Other, then Coldhands swoops in to save him from the wights. The episode 8 previews says something about Sam and Gilly meeting "an old man"; so, assuming that's Coldhands, we could see Sam become the Slayer very soon.
