If my memory serves me correctly, Martin said once that he has sketched the ending just in case something happens to him.
Episode 7 - Written by Martin himself!
I know. That's what I was alluding to. The producers already have the outline of the rough events of The Winds Of Winter and A Dream Of Spring. Speaking of which, Melisandre's line to Arya of "we will meet again" confused me no end, considering that in Storm, the comparative book to the current series, they didn't meet at all, and as of the end of Dance, they still haven't.
Ros was a really tricky one for me : I never found myself caring about her. Not just because she wasn't in the books, but the reason she existed, despite not being in the books. She was a plot device in the first series so that we could learn things about the characters that in the book appeared in either the narration or inside the characters' heads. Her being present in Tyrion's introduction and her scenes with Theon, Baelish and Pycelle were there to flesh out those characters, and as such when I looked at her, I never really cared a great deal because she didn't seem real enough to me ; she was just a plot device. When Cersei had her beaten because they didn't want to cast the madam's daughter - logical, because they'd never bothered casting the madam and rewrote the brothel to belong to Baelish instead - plot device, to reduce the casting levels, like making Bronn commander of the City Watch. Every time I looked at Ros, she never mattered to me. However, I was pleased to see that when they elected to kill her they made it a death with purpose ; to underline how dangerous a man Baelish is to cross, and to underline what an irredeemable cunt the King is, as if we didn't already know. For people that haven't been ruined by the book like me, it would have been shocking and poignant. So it's good writing.
Double standards I suppose, when I consider how FUCKED OFF I was when they killed off Irri last year.

Yeah my thoughts too. As if I didn't have enough reasons to want Joffrey given the "Dracarys" treatment, now we don't get to see Ros naked anymore.
Joffrey, you f'n inbred bastard.
That was a good episode.
Some memorable quotes:
Olena- "He's a sword-swallower through and through."
Ygritte - "I'm your woman now, Jon Snow. You're going to be loyal to your woman. The Night's Watch doesn't care if you live or die, and Mance Rayder don't care if I live or die. We're just soldiers in their armies and there's plenty of more to carry on if we go down. It's just you and me that matters to me in the end. Don't ever betray me. Because I'll cut your pretty cock right off and wear it around me neck." Now that's what I call incentive.
Balish - (blah blah blah about chaos and a ladder or some shit).
The ending scene where Jon and Ygritte take in the view from both sides of the wall was spectacular. I agree with her. Fuck the Night's Watch, fuck Mance Rayder and fuck the Realm. Just look out for each other.
After the last two episodes some of the lads on another forum started joking about how they love the now-weekly installments of "Tywin Lannister Has Meetings With People" and this week certainly didn't disappoint. Even the Queen Of Thorns was unable to bend the mighty Tywin to her will. "Hear Me Roar" indeed. It does make me wonder in a way though, given that Loras already has to engage in his nocturnal activities under a cloak of secrecy, how much of a problem he would have had with being Kingsguard and the glory of such a position. A position he was more than happy to take up for King Renly, as it were. It's not as though Kingsguard ever had a problem with disturbing bedroom practices behind closed doors before (i.e. Jaime).
The real ace in Tywin's deck was the insinuation that with Loras being forbidden from having children, Highgarden might fall out of Tyrell hands and the family line dimish. I took a minor issue with that because again, it's taking liberties with the book. Loras has two older brothers - indeed, it was Willas Tyrell, not Loras, that was heir to Highgarden and who Lady Olenna planned to marry to Sansa. But I guess it makes for better TV if it's the Knight Of The Flowers, who Sansa has been wet for from the start.

Oh, some kind soul has put up some rather risky caps of Shae the funny whore, in case anybody wasn't aware of her naughty past.

Oh hell yeah. Rep to you if I could. I owe you a couple already.
Heh, I wouldn't worry about that in the slightest. All I ask is for your vote should I ever campaign to be a mod. But then, that seems as tiring and thankless a task as Hand Of The King.

How did I know this would be mentioned on the thread? lol

As you all know Game of Thrones can be very difficult to keep up with at times considering all the characters and plots, I'm confused with a certain story line that I just need some help on. I'm kind of lost with the Theon plot, who's that guy fucking with him? I mean the scenes are great but they would be even more awesome if I completely understood it, can someone fill me in on this?
btw did anyone else think John Snow was just Robb Stark in a fur coat for a minute? ha
