They are over there and convinced that Grandma Tyrell had nothing to do with it. Like so against it they're almost mad. What poor uninformed Hodors they are.

It's fun when you are in the dark though, trying to figure out wtf is going on. The first watch of Lost was like that.

They are saying that Grandma Tyrell is what the writers want us to think and that she's the obvious choice even though nobody caught her taking stuff off the necklace until they watched the wedding scene two or three times very closely and noticed it.

If by "they" you mean Roger then yes. He is a little to adamant about his position.

To start with, I am not sure there was any right answer to the Thoen/Reek conundrum, but the way the show has chosen to show this storyline has just demolished one of the best characters arcs in the book. Not to mention, they have had to do all sorts of storyline gymnastics ( that I think were mostly unnecessary) to tweak the story back to the book.

I haven't minded most of the changes from book to tv, but this one and their insistence on making Shae redeemable have really not been done in the best interests of the story.

I thought I saw an Arkansas fan agreeing with him on that front. Either way, it's cracking me up and I'm proud of most of them. They seem to be thinking along the right lines.

I see Macintosh didn't waste anytime after getting out of ban land.

Wait, didn't one of the maesters way back when try to poison Melisandre? If I remember, he pulled a stone or some sort of crystal from his chain and dropped it in his chalice. He knew he'd die, but he'd also take out Melissandre, but she ended up living while the maester went down like a Joffrey.

EDIT: YES!

With the missing crystal from Sansa's necklace and Granny playing with it right before it went missing, I'm now convinced that it was the Martells somehow using the fool to give Sansa the poison she'd unwittingly bring to the wedding so it can be used and only have a tiny window in which the Martells would actually have the poison in their possession.


THIS fricking guy gets it.

Agreed, and I wouldn't be shocked if Varys or Littlefinger are involved in some way.

There is definitely more to this.

I think he is too, but he has skirted the "proof" line very well.

The better question is why would anyone want to ruin a great viewing experience for people.

Because they want to come off as intelligent so they can say "HA! I told you so!" later on.

Roger is def a book reader..

Someone said that they think there will be a showdown between the Mountain and the Hound... Rogers response...

I think Oberyn might get to the Mountain first. He clearly wants revenge for his sister and knows the Mountain killed her and his niece.

Yep. Hope he gets banned. He's pushing way to hard for it to be just a guess. Guessing right is one thing but posting the screencap of the neclace and pushing the issue as hard as he has just proves it. I didn't catch that and I was looking for it.
