What did Varys mean when he said 'don't speak your language' , he was born in Essos.
He didn't speak any Valyrian this episode , I guess because so much Dothraki was spoken.

So far everything about the northern storyline has been fantastic this year. I'm including Bran in that too. The rest is struggling to live up to it. Until this episode, I've felt the Arya scene's were getting dull. This was a good one.
I noticed that there are 4 people on Arya's list although one name wasn't mentioned, just insinuated. It didn't flow as well as last weeks episode, but it would be hard to match last week in terms of flowing beautifully. A lot of scenes were set up scenes, which is the unfortunate nature of the show. I enjoyed ToJ. Dany was not good, Tyrion only worked when Varys turned up. Kings Landing was a mixed bag. Pycelle farting was an inspired choice. My favourite Kings Landing moment. I wont complain about Sam and Gilly as it was a necessary scene. At least little Sam is more believable age wise. That kid could be about 2. He looked a little older than my nephew who is 2 in July. I'm going to need a re-watch, I've got a feeling I've missed loads. Waif? |

Sorry guys, but I liked the Smalljon  Sure it might be "character assassination" of his book counterpart, but I think his reasoning for joining the Boltons was pretty well explained and easily acceptable. Interesting and entertaining fella, though, he reminded me of Tormund with a bit of Locke  "You didn't bend the knee to my father" "Your father was a cunt" "My father was Warden of" "Your father was a cunt, and that's why you killed him." "My father was poisoned by our enemies" "I don't blame you, your father was a cunt. I would've killed my father if he wasn't dead already"So now they decided GreatJon is dead? They said he was alive. I guess they changed their minds... |

The Arya bit was as good a training montage as you'll see, basically.

I guess they changed their minds... That was just info gleaned from Cogman tweets. But I don't consider that to be canon enough for this to be a full-on retcon. |

Why did Davos shush Melisandre from the room? He didn't say anything she should not have heard. My take on it was he didn't want her to overwhelm Jon with the Lord of Light crap so he asked her to leave so Jon could breathe for a bit and get his head on straight first. He needs to figure out for himself wtf he's going to do and it was better with Davos and Jon alone. |

This guy was great, dick though he is. |

It's all up to the Manderly's from this point on I guess to be the house to betray the Boltons. |

Also she wanted to ask him all sorts of supernatural questions and that would've weirded him out even more when the guy was already freaked out enough as it was. |

Anyone who can call Roose Bolton a cunt in front of Ramsay and basically tell him to go fuck himself when making an alliance is a good character in my books. |

Well-acted and a good villain. I just want him dead, which is the whole point. |

I guess Jon is definitely not a warg. And all hopes and dreams of Rickon showing up on the back of a giant Shaggy Dog are dead.  |
