If so, I also didn't think they were that close to wall. If only there was a place I could go to find out what kind of range "warging" has....

Hopefully that means we get to see some Selmy action. I really want to see how badass he really is.

i'd have to see the line that was spoken to ayra again. i took it as much grander than just revenge on lannisters. like i started to wonder if certain great houses had eye colors associated with them...

Someone needs to go back and see what color eyes Cersei, The hound, etc (what ever names she is saying) have.

This week the episode was also extremely short as the first 10 minutes of air time were spent advertising some HBO crappy arse news show and the episode also ended 10 minutes or so before the hour mark was reached. Very short episode.

I noticed that as well. On XBL you can see the whole length, and it was only 53 minutes. Normally they're around 58 minutes or so (some in the past have even gone over an hour). I thought that was weird. The end credits are a little over a minute long, and the opening credits are right at 1:46 long. So this episode was actually only about 50 minutes long (of actual show).

I thought it was shorter but not by a huge amount. 50 mins is pretty standard

I keep seeing this, but per the show we still don't know who he is. Even the Wiki episode writeup still calls him "the cleaning boy."

Exactly. I get that there are clues leading us to Bolton (the sigil, bolton sending his son, yadda yadda yadda) but this show is usually more direct with character intro's so there has to be a reason why they aren't outright telling us.

it's people making an assumption based on clues from the show.

1) the "X"
2) bolton mentioning his bastard was going to re-take winterfell
3) we assume theon is taken by the guys outside the gates at winterfell blowing the horns
4) "theon's tormentor" waking him using the horn


it adds up, even though we are not explicitly told.



edit: i wouldn't be surprised if its him or not, with the way this show goes.

my take on why it's still vague is:


if it is true, then the BOlton's
1) have theon
2) have info that the stark boys are still alive
3) have jamie lannister

those are some pretty big hole cards if they have them all.
