Do yall think the warlocks are going to play any more of a role in the series maybe through Crows Eye or is their part in the series done? Rewatching the Ser Barristan scene reminded me of them.

As an odd sort of Mer Rouge rednecknerd, I've gotta say that all my life girls named Leia have gotten an extra 0.7 or so on the shiner scale. (Yeah, its mostly RotJ, I was 12 I think?)


Girls named named Brook have always had a special place as well. During the early days of HBO, Pretty Baby & and Blue Lagoon were big late night thrills for my young arse.

I've thought about it.

I'm also pretty sure Ned made the Top Baby Names for 2012 list too.

Something that struck me from last episode: didn't Jojen Reed say his dad didn't tell him about the war (Robert's Revolution) but he saw it? And also that he could see things in the past and things far away? I'm thinking another possible source of confirmation for R+ L = J.

I wonder if there was a wierwood tree at the Tower of Joy where R and L could have gotten married that Bran might also "see" at some point? (I know that last part is not exactly new speculation)

Once Howland learned of Ned and Robert's death, he sends Meera and Jojen to Winterfell, possibly to ultimately reunite Meera/Jon and reveal their true identity.



I like this theory. Is anyone else anxious to actually see the Howland Reed character? He seems to possibly have the answer to a lot of questions yet he is no where to be found. Strange to me.

Honestly, I like that the show confirms he's alive. I was never really sure reading the books.

Did the show prematurely kill off old man Tulley?

Guess they didn't want to pay another actor for one or two episodes.

I mean to be fair the old bastard was an old dying bastard the whole time he was in the books.

They'll just have to find another way to infer Littlefinger/Lysa's connection and that shouldn't be too hard.

I'm guessing probably not. Which doesn't really bother me. It's a device that can easily be written in elsewhere down the road.

Earlier I asked if it was assumed that Jojen knew R + L = J.

My question was based on this theory. I think Jojen knows and will be responsible for revealing it at some point.

Speaking of Jojen Reed, the casting for the character is almost flawless. Exactly as I imagined him looking and acting.

Valar Dohaeris....Anybody else think the faceless men have a hand in creating the turmoil that has enveloped the seven kingdoms? That possibly they long for all to serve under The stranger. Valar Dohaeris

Realistically, the faceless men could infiltrate any land, keep, or castle and can become whomever they choose. Essentially they can manipulate and steer anyone to their plans through stealth and subterfuge. With Everyone on edge about Winter coming and freaking out, what better time to unleash your endgame for all to come together under The stranger

And given their uncanny abilities to survive, both Varys and Mance are on my list as potential men of this order. Crackpot yes.

Well we know they killed Balon Greyjoy and we know one is in the citadel with the maesters so they are most certainly in the thick of things

This biggest shocker to me IMO, was that Cat's sister was really behind the start of everything.

You know, I was wondering about this all week. A real mindfrick would be Margery Tyrell and/or her mom being of the Faceless order...but I can't figure a good reason why that could be, so I blew it off.

But the question "who else is a faceless man" has been nagging at me.
