Is Bronn one of the subjects from the land of Catelyn Stark (Tully)? He was at the Inn where she has Tyrion arrested. If so, why is he not more loyal to her and her cause?

Oh hell, I'll just go read the bios.

What did he discover when reading the lineage book?


Others have answered about the black hair, but what they haven;t said is that in the book he observes how in every mating of a Baretheon with a Lannister in the past the black hair gene has won out. All children of Baratheon/Lannister matings have had black hair, except for Cersei's children.

He's a sellsword, his only loyalty is to money.

Like Psych says... he's a mercenary. He only happened to be in the inn at the time Catelyn showed up, and he smelled opportunity.

I could be mistaken but I don't think the books ever specified where Bronn came from originally.

I could be wrong, but I thought he was Flea Bottom in Kings Landing.

I could easily be wrong, I just thought he said something about being from there in Clash of Kings.

ok then i have missed out on what it means to have the dragon blood line. I figured if you were a targaryen you had the blood of a dragon.

I had to update Adobe and it started working for me. Not sure if that's your problem though.

Speaking of next week's episode, SPOILER ALERT...





















Ned getting duped is really going to benefit him based on Dothraki(spelling) coming over.

That is a good point. In the book they never really mention this. I guess it just got lost somehow or perhaps molten metal and fire/heat are not intended to be the same thing.

I think it's THE Dragon.

He keeps saying he is THE dragon who is fabled to be king. Thats probably why the Dothraki put up with him for so long.. until they realize the Queen is much more bad-arse than her whiny brother...

Just my guess

The emphasis is more on Holy than on shite, right?

Is it more Holier than shite than the other epsiodes thus far, cuz I thought they were pretty much all Holier than shite?
