I enjoyed it. They were just being drunk bros hanging out for possibly the last time.

That was the worst scene in the series for me. Tyrion and Jamie trying to sound retarded was pathetic and poorly done.


I didn't really like it either. The reference to the Mountain and his "watch the world burn, kill for no reason" attitude that's great and all, but the audience has never really seen much of or cared about the Mountain, so zero fux given.

Arya and the Hound - will Arya actually reunite with Sansa or will they just turn around? The Hound seems like a dead man since they keep referencing his injury and lack of fire-purging.


Didn't the which burn the wound of Drago and he died anyway? Seems like in the Game of Thrones world, you can take a sword to the stomach a couple times and be fine or get a hand chopped off and be cool but if you get a paper cut then you are a dead man

I just find it lazy. The story gets bloated, then it gets purged by removing characters through death. It's a very easy device to use, and Martin seems to use it as a crutch to me.

i hope tyrion wakes up next week and it was all just a bad dream a la bobby ewing. he then figures out a way to kill tywin, cersei, the mountain and whoever else gets in his way. then we have a kinky sex scene with tyrion, oberyn, the paramour sand lady and grandma tyrell.

Is he a sell sword? If so it would be bad arse if he ended up in Stannis' army.

I know that, but do they pimp themselves out for cash or are they aligned with someone in Essos?

I think they are like the Jason Bournes of sell swords and are therefore extremely expensive for just one.

He should have thrown the spear at Tywin


I honestly thought that's where it was headed and he was either going to be killed by the guards or executed for killing Tywin. Either way, I think he fully expected to die that day, but not the way it happened.

I like it. It's not the most clever thing to do but it's practical. A convoluted story that has nowhere else to go and has followed the same characters for multiple seasons is the most common death of a series.

I felt that scene and the scene with Arya laughing were so out of place with the whole series.

Not that I necessarily disliked or liked either scene. Just that they didn't fit. As if I were watching a blooper reel or something.

Thought it was maybe a different director/writer for this episode, but nope.

I kinda of thought the same thing - I didn't care for either scene and found them weak compared to what we usually see.

Was Arya laughing bc Lyssa was dead or that she didn't believe it? Either way, story not advanced at all.

Genuinely masculinity is associated with a great fondness ONLY for the opposite sex.
