No love for the Reek backstory? WTF? That took me like 3 minutes to type out.

But I've been banned for just the simplest of matters with GoT. Hard to tell these days, but if I so much as enter yalls threads and say Tyrion is a midget, people flip their shite, specifically Cocomo

You folks saying it's not rape make me terrified that I'm about to bring a little girl into this world.

Go back and re-watch the scene. Ramsey tells her to take off her clothes. She hesitates, showing she doesn't want this, and he threatens her.

"I've asked once. I don't like to have to ask twice."

If that's not a threat I don't know what is.

Her actions up to that point are irrelevant. She clearly didn't want the D and he threatened her, bent her over, and gave it to her anyway.

Did she know she had to do it in order to set herself up for vengeance? Yep.

Does that make it "not rape"? Nope.

FWIW, I hate the flak this scene is getting in the media. As long as she gets her revenge and Ramsay gets his shite pushed in, it will pay off. That doesn't make it not rape, though.

Considering we still don't know who tried to kill Bran or who did kill Joffrey, I'd say there's a good chance we don't find out who kills him. And that IF he dies.

I'd like to see Sansa do the deed. Slowly. That being said, I think he'll end up in a pie...via Pod.

Has anyone seen Hot Pie lately? Maybe they can bring him up from the riverlands.

Uuuumm...Didn't Cersei orchestrate the Bran attempt? (Assuming you're referring to season one.)

Well, not that it's important anymore, but Joffrey was the one who sent the dagger in the books. Cersei, as dumb as she is, is not dumb enough to arm an assassin with a Valyrian Steel dagger. Joffrey however is.

In the show it was Tyrion's dagger in an attempt to frame him, right? I thought that was the whole thing that heavily implicated her and Jamie.

They both claimed to, when it serves them. Again no real resolution.

I figured they were in cahoots. LF definitely knew about the necklace and the old lady took that bead off at the wedding. That explanation satisfies me.

Has Roose flayed anyone? I thought he was against it because he has told Ramsay on different occasions to cut it out (pun intended) or at least keep it quiet. He knows if they flay people that the north will rebel against them which is why he gets pissed when Ramsay flays someone. He did rape Ramsay's mother which is horrible. Outside of that I don't think he's that bad. Just trying to protect himself and his house. Your comparison of him to Tywin was spot on for the most part. I've always said Roose is the north's Tywin Lannister. In the end, Roose wants peace but at the same time he wants to improve his family's standing politically. Betraying Robb after the war had been lost was his chance to do so. Ruthless? Sure. Horrible? Not so much. Robb brought the betrayal on himself

I'm pretty damn confident he's flayed some people. Granted I don't think he makes a habit out of it in the same way Ramsay does, but I imagine he's probably flayed some thieves, rapists, and murderers in his day. Theon was pretty shocked he didn't flay anyone that had inhabited Winterfell.

But I'd say Tywin is evil too. Yeah, he wants stability, but only if it's under his rule. Other than that, neither Tywin nor Roose really give a shite. Both characters are textbook Lawful Evil.
