- For reference for you book readers, I'm on page 199 of A Storm of Swords
- A rare seemingly superfluous scene involved Tyrion and Shae, which no doubt means it will come into play in a major way down the line
- Of Robb's lieutenant bannermen, if Umber and Karstark are Pacino, then Bolton is Deniro.
- It is only Tuesday but congrats to Theon Greyjoy for wining "Schadenfreude of the Week"
- How does one spell 'schadenfreude' correctly, while butchering 'lieutentant'?
- Joffrey had a beat when he was talking about Renley and making his "perversion" punishable by death. The beat made me think there's a possibility he has a Larry Craig thing going. I can't imagine the little psychopath is able to feel love or attraction beyond basic mating instinct
- Speaking of psychopathy, I wonder if there is a way to play psychologist and apply the Hare Psychopathy Test, the PCL-R, to Joffrey [notes idea for future post]
- My guess is Cersei would test higher as a psychopath. Joffrey is "merely" anti-social
- It was so nice to introduce us to the Dowager Countess of the Tyrells
- In the same vein, we met the Katniss Everdeen of the Reeds
- Jamie showed a moment of sincerity when he said "we don't choose who we love"
- No heads chopped off? Not even a limb? And complete lack of nudity. This is, without a doubt and with zero hyperbole, the most shocking thing that has happened in the show's entire run to date.
All in all, everyone raised a lot of money for Relay for Life because they spent the whole episode walking (minus Bran!). To Riverrun. To the Wall. To the Fist. To an undoubtedly miserable marriage to the king...
