Who are the two barbarians? Jorah and The Hound are both knights.


Yeah, Sandor isn't and Beric is a knight. Thoros is a priest from Myr.

Anybody think there is some hidden meaning to "The Seven"?


I've always thought The Faith of the Seven was kind of a model for understanding the major characters.
Father - Ned Stark, Tywin Lannister, Jeor Mormont
Mother - Catelyn Stark, Olenna Tyrell, Cersei Lannister.
Warrior - Jon Snow, Jamie Lannister, Sandor Clegane, Jorah Mormont, Robert Baratheon, Randyl Tarly
Maiden - Sansa Stark, Margery Tyrell, Jeyne Westerling / Talisa
Smith - Gendry, Samwell Tarly, Maester Aemon, Davos Seaworth, Tyrion Lannister
Crone - The Red Woman
The Stranger - Three-Eyed Raven, Jaqen H'ghar, Arya Stark, Brandon Stark

I'd certainly say that Gregor is a barbarian. The guy bashed a baby's head in and then raped the mother with the baby's brains on him before killing her.

"Barbarian" is just a Roman word they used for any outside culture that didn't have a written language. I think even The Mountain knows how to read.

And he's an anointed knight, so not a barbarian.

I would assume the reactions are still there? Probably around pages 20 through 40?

Don't waste your time.

There were laughs about the rowing joke from Davos, and then a few OMG HAMMER comments and that was it.

None of them are maidens now, though...some less so that others.

The Marg/Sansa scene where Margaery is explaining sex and Sansa asked if her mom taught her all of that is one the funniest scenes on the whole show.

Ya but if you know the series is ending, it may not translate into continued increased memberships so maybe they feel it isn't worth it for additional episodes at this point.


I don't think it's about increased memberships, it's about retaining current memberships. I'll bet you see a significant decline in HBO memberships after GOT is finished.

The Gilly scene was big, but it didn't tell the world anything really. Everybody thinks Jon is Ned Stark's bastard son. I wonder how it will be "proven" that Jon is who he really is? Unless it is in the archmaester's records somewhere, people may not believe it. E


Coco wtf bro.

I expected Tyrion to be flying a dragon by now, doesn't look like that is happening.


The dragons did allow Tyrion to remove the collars... and they didnt eat him...

This reminds me, has everyone seen the fanmade pic of Jon in Targaryen armor?

It's just hilarious like "I don't see how that scene matters, I mean if she had read an important scroll that proved the marriage THEN it might be a big deal but since she only read an important scroll that proved the marriage than it isn't a big deal at all"

Anyone else think the plan to bring a WW back to Cersei is stupid? At this point, everyone is well aware that Cersei is only looking out for herself, and she knows that her days are limited. I think deep down she knows that she is either going to be killed by Danny or killed by WW (if they are real). What motive does she have to help in the fight against the WW? Why do Jon, Tyrion, etc. think that showing her a WW is going to somehow cause her to go against her own self interest?

I think the assumption is that seeing an actual White Walker will show her that fighting them is in her own self interest.

Don't know who the sword would be, but the hound is obviously the dog, and Gendry is most likely the horse.

I'm not sure who thinks it's smart. Even my wife (big time Hodor) thinks it's a stupid plot device that goes against anything rational based on what we know about Cercei and even what the characters should know about Cercei. To go all in on something so dangerous without even a good chance of getting everyone to meet to see it, is dumb. Really, really dumb.

Now, that doesn't even take into account the fact that they could have easily brought one of the Tarlys to the wall, had him hanged on the side of the wall, and then waited for him to become a zombie while he sat in a cage...
