I'm sick
ohwell.gif
 
I knew it was coming, but seeing a pregnant broad get shanked up...wow, didn't even know I was holding my breath the whole time.

Hogwarts' caretaker is ruthless.
 
PM me or hit me in the book thread idk what you're talking about.

In the book , Arya has a chapter where she sees the commotion going on in the castle and she runs towards it but before she reaches there, she gets clubbed in the back of her head by an axe and the scene cuts off so you think Arya might have died too. The episode shows it but doesnt do it like a cliffhanger which the book does. It would have been a good cliffhanger scene to leave the episode out on

Also in the book, Robs wife isn't present for the the Red Wedding so she lives. Seeing her get shanked right in the belly :x :smh:

I knew what was coming and i still feel sick

When reading I never thought Arya was dead. Few friends thought she might have but I think it stated the Hound hit her with the flat of the axe he had.

@ the reactions of people who didn't know it was coming.


A part of me wishes I hadn't read all the books so all these shenanigans would be fresh to me.

I can't imagine how I would've taken it, because reading about in the book had me messed up for the rest of the day.
 
I've watched every episode starring from season one and I think its about time I read the books. I hate having to wait a week to see the next episode. I think I'll pick them up next week sometime.
 
I knew Robb wasn't built for the crown but damn the way that went down left me sick
tired.gif


Then they let that **** sink in during the credits... **** man that was genius
 
They should've explained the significance of them eating the bread and salt. Could've had Catelyn have a short convo with Robb about it the night before. Basically if you eat the bread and salt of your host then everything is good. They are obligated to do you no harm and vice versa.

Even w/o that, your suppose to be under the host's protection in their home, which Frey decided to break. That's been explained before, and Frey even said it to Robb when they first arrived.

Yep.

It's called guest right.
The guest right is a sacred law of hospitality. When a guest, be he common born or noble, eats the food and drinks the drink off a host's table beneath the host's roof, the guest right is invoked. Bread and salt are the traditional provisions.

When invoked, neither the guest can harm his host nor the host harm his guest for the length of the guest's stay.[sup][1][/sup] For either to do so would be to break a sacred covenant that is believed to invoke the wrath of the Gods both old and new. Both the teachings of the Old Gods and the Faith of the Seven hold to this. Even robber lords and wreckers are bound by the ancient laws of hospitality. [sup][2][/sup]

I'm mad that was done. Once I saw that she was there from the beginning of the episode, I was praying that somehow she would leave for whatever reason :smh:
Same here, I was expecting and was ready but....damn, it really hit me...again. When I read it, I threw my book down for some minutes before I could finish the chapter.
 
I'm so happy about the idiot Robb Stark's death.

The kid hasn't learned anything from his dad.

Why kill his wife though?

I've read in ASOIAF Forum that she's still alive.

They made her a different character in TV show. In books, she never "officialy" got pregnant although there is some speculation she did/is.
They made her from Essos instead of being a Lady from Westeros. In books her mother was secretly working with the Lannisters, so she and her family were spared after the red wedding. Most likely reason they changed her background was so they could drop that part of the story.

This ep was great just to see Rickon get some lines and shine :lol:

Real emotional ep overall. That plea from Catelyn. Aarya always being in the wrong place at the saddest moments :smh:

Happy bird guy died. Such an annoying bum.

Like 3 or 4 of them Frey girls were smashable and okay in the face. I would've gave the pipe to the twins.

Putting aside I knew what was going to happen, when I first watched S1 I knew **** was always gonna be real when Ned died. It let me know how serious it is, no happy endings in this story. So Robb being so dumb and then getting betrayed had to just be accepted. Sucks cuz the rest of the heirs aren't really capable. Starks just can't survive in this kind of game. I mean Ned couldn't have had one duplicitous son? One dude not like the rest willing to get dirty like Tyrion and Little Finger? A son with no honor on the inside that's manipulative and charismatic?

Oh well, all hope left in Aarya to grow up and get revenge.

So that there will be no heir to Winterfell and thus no King in the north (since most ppl think Bran and Rickon are dead).
