Baelish did manipulation from shadows, but now that he is a Lord, he is much more noticeable. I can't wait to see him die.

I like checking out the theories people out on YouTube, like Tyrion and Jon Snow might be Targarean.

Even an assumption is out there that Hodor is a Targaeryan. Good times.

That reminds me, there was an unintentionally (maybe?) funny moment in the second episode, when Bran asked Hodor what happened to him, and Hodor of course replies "Hodor". It was probably meant to be rhetorical, but the way the line was delivered, it was like he was genuinely expecting an answer.

Speaking of theories though, there's a pretty good one about Hodor. It may be off the mark, but it does make sense.

Because I got into the series late, that's basically how I consumed the first four seasons. I don't think I could do it now, though. Once you're into a show, you're much more aware of spoilers; whatever passed over my head before, I'm going to pay attention to now. It gives us something to look forward to each week, too.

I'm glad Jon Snow didn't show mercy on Olly. For a sec, I thought maybe he would but already, we're starting to see a different Jon Snow. He's gonna be a lot colder and gives no effs anymore. Great season so far.

I was wondering if he would, and I too was glad that he didn't. Kit Harington himself had a great take on the new Jon Snow.

Another strong episode, with a brilliant performance from Emilia Clarke's body double.

Seriously though, even though we're still seeing God Mode Ramsay, it was nice to finally see a Stark reunion where someone doesn't get killed just before it can happen. Seems like they're setting up some epic battles for Episodes 9 and 10.

this episode seriously gave me goose bumps, we have been waiting 5 years for this shit. i personally want to see snow meet with brann and arya more so but this was awesome. hell this entire episode was awesome. the looks between tormund and brienne were a damn riot. show had a great ending too which by the way she claims was all her and not a body double

Yeah, I've since read that it wasn't a body double. Well, there you go.

Actually read that she wouldn't be showing off any of her parts after Season 1 but eh win-win.

Great episode just a whole lot of plot holes.

Why didn't any of those warriors ever try to stop her? lmao. Also love the way they all bowed down after seeing her emerge from the fire. "Shit, they're bowing. Do we do the same?" "Ah, fuck it. Fine."

I'd heard that she had a no-nudity clause since Season 4, but she's also clarified that she's been misquoted about her stance on nudity and sex scenes. She had a couple of nude scenes in Season 3.

Those aren't really plot holes. The Dothraki didn't stop her because they didn't see her as a threat, or an equal in any way. By the time they even had an inkling that she wasn't messing around, and not someone to be messed around with, they were trapped and surrounded by fire. As for them all bowing down...well, she's just emerged unscathed from the fire that killed their leaders. It's not unfathomable that a lot of them would think that she's some kind of supernatural being, and thus someone they should revere and follow. Crowd mentality being what it is, once a bunch of them decide "She's who we'll follow now, I'm bowing", others will see that and think "Yeah, they're right" and do the same.

About the nudity, she told british tv that she was worried about being "type casted" which is why when she was approached by the 50 shades of grey crew about her being the girl in it her people shut that straight down

So, that busts a few theories about Hodor, and shows us what is arguably a more tragic truth. Damn.

might be the most emotional death in the show so far. the one true innocent the show had

i have reached a point where i need the Arya story to start going some where and i personally hope it goes down the path of her wanting to remain as Arya.

i hope they dont go to far into time travel, never been a big fan of it myself.

as a side note, those were some spectacular breasts

I agree. It certainly seems they were hinting at that with her reaction to the on-stage portrayal of her family. A girl still has a name, and has not forgotten her past.

Considering that none of them have spoken to Bran while he's been conscious since episode one, that would be pretty special.
