The Game of Thrones Thread

Why would The Hound go out of his way to avenge Sansa? I'm sure if knew Ramsay raped her, he would kill him if he got the chance, but where would he take her? Its sounds like something he'd only do if it was Arya who was raped, and that's only because he spent so much time bonding with him.

*her

Why are you being so stubborn?

They could totally go the Gravedigger route if they wanted.

Ramsey is literally the most entertaining character on the show

Ayyy lmao :p

The Gravedigger's not the Hound

Grum trolled you all and you fell for it

lol

@saren: I'll remember this when Sandor returns in the next book >:[

You say this like there's going to be a next book

@saren: truuu

@jaken7: Well meme'd bro XD

@jaken7: D&D just have a thing for rape, Dany doesn't get raped in the books, then they botched the Cersei and Jaime scene. Intellectually I think I do agree, it was excess, just another way to show how tough Sansa has it, but I felt no visceral reaction to that scene, I was watching it with a raised eyebrow and folded arms.

I think it's possible that Sansa will get pregnant from this.

@buttersdaman000 - There are no major plot points, but it does strongly highlight Sansa's progression and shows how manipulative she has become, which makes this very odd.

Also found the whole thing with the slavers funny, the logic of the slavers going in the complete opposite direction they were intending with Jorah and Tyrion to fight in the pits based only on his word just seemed really contrived. Though I did enjoy that scene overall.

My reaction to the scene was just an eye roll. It has come to the point of "bad things keep happening to Sansa, big whoop." It didn't really make me hate Ramsay more either.

On the other hand, everytime I see Cersei's face, my hatred just grows. I still hate her more than everyone else, which naturally means that they'll keep her on longer to garner more hate. Making her more awful at this point wouldn't change my desire to see her beaten much, and the same goes for Ramsay. Retribution loses its charm when you get to the point of "just do it already" rather than eager anticipation for it. That was something I feared would happen, and it loses its charm.

Part of what makes retribution so satisfying is the timing, and that is starting to falter for me. I also wouldn't like a token "hated character gets killed" for the end of the season though. That would just be patronizing.

Almost forgot to say that Baelish's deviousness continues to be a highlight for me. I think I have a fair idea of where that is headed. In some ways, I wouldn't mind if Baelish was the one who somehow makes Ramsay pay his dues. I don't really particularly care for Theon to do it. Even though this is pretty out there, I wouldn't mind if Sir Davos did it.

Yeah, Ramsay is a real bastard, no pun intended, but I find him more tolerable than Joffery, who was a d*ck, just to be a d*ck, or Cersei. At least he has reasons for being the way he is....to some extent.

Plus, the actor played Simon on Misfits, and I loooove Simon

@the_stegman: Oh yea... I knew I recognised him from somewhere.

I despised him at first, but then that monster kind of grew on me.

I don't get the uproar from the other night... That scene was like number 3 for me on big moments from that episode. Yeah it was uncomfortable, but that was the point. Now we all hate Ramsey more, and feel bad for Theon and Sansa even more. Not like rape is a rare thing in GoT.

@eyedcyou: You see it all the time, some people just can't handle fictional things, Theon has had it far worse but you only get the odd grumbling that they've taken it to far and it's uncomfortable to watch, not this outrage.

Yeah seriously. I can probably think of 5 things worse than what happened to Sansa.

Once winter comes, anyone who is dead.. Won't be.

All of the Dorne scenes seemed so sloppy

That is what kills me. Dorne is one of my favorite places in GoT, Doran doesn't get any of those touching scenes he had with Ateoh in his chapter where he mourns that the Mountain murdered both his siblings. His actor would have made those scenes amazing and he is being horribly underused.

Finally, Cersei is getting her comeuppance. Dany is starting to get on my nerves, like, how many times are you gonna reject my boy Jorah? She cold as ice.

I'm really excited to see Jon meet with the wildlings next week.

Dose feels when Cersei was thrown in jail and Bronn didn't die

@sophia89: $$$$$

@sophia89: she a thot

@sophia89: Shae definitely loved Tyrion. I suppose she felt betrayed, angry, maybe it was done out of spite? Also, I can't imagine she had much of a choice; how do you say 'no' to Tywin Lannister? We didn't get much context considering Tyrion killed her on the spot.

Well, we got to see some Sand Snake's titties... Well, at least Bronn is not going to die.

One thing this episode was right about, Tyene Sand is gorgeous. Like, she is the most attractive woman I have seen on the show, which is saying a lot.

And her breasts are lovely too.

Damn right, yo.

Tyene was my fav Snake in the books.

Ya know that whole prison scene is really good except I have no idea WHO that Sand Sankes name is!

Bronn's still alive, so I'm happy.

@dragonborn_ct: She's awesome, and she stole that whole scene. The Snakes are dangerous as hell. I hope they become main characters...or..y'know, not die.

Her name is Tyene.

@the_stegman: well I wish the showed actually surfaced that better and made them more than just one dimensional characters out fo revenge because that scene was fantastic. I'd of been even better if I'd remebered her name.

This episode was ehhh

Strange cause this was the best episode this season had in a long while.

@dragonborn_ct: Nahh.....

@laflux: It was still better than last episode, even ignoring the whole Sansa and Ramsay debacle, you had a lot of cringe with the Sand Snakes vs Jaime and Bronn.

I like how Aemon is the only character we saw in the series to die of natural causes, Cersei getting what she deserves, Bronn surviving and Sam being a based mofo. Plus tities.

@dragonborn_ct: I was happy Bronn survived tbh. But Day is annoying me, Cersei being thrown in prison didn't make me as happy as I wanted considering Mar is still in jail with her brother.

For some reason I imagine both Stannis and Tommen will bite the big one before the season is over. Both are in pretty drastic situations right now and I am fairly certain Tommen is going to die due to Maggy's prediction foreshadowing. Imagine the disaster if both Baratheon kings died...

When I saw the poison reveal I was about to rage. Good thing he's gotten the cure... supposedly...

Thoughts on the episode:

So happy Bronn didn't die. But also kind of confused as to why Tyene saved him? Plot device? Idk.

Those boobs were amazing.

Dany needs to hear my boy Jorah out.

Cersie ayyy lmao

Ramsey is a worse human being than Joffrey was.
