I am just SO FRAKKIN GLAD that Arya and Sansa got Little Finger. I was literally stomping around all last week, so angry about the whole sister vs. sister thing (as you know from my reply to your post but just imagine that but me popping out of random corners of the library anytime I heard a coworker discussing the episode and slapping my hands on the table).

Anyway, yes, best scene of the episode for me was that moment.

Poor Theon. I really like the conversation between Jon and him. Plus foreshadowing since Jon is going to have to learn how to be both a Stark and Targaeryen now. Also, the ridiculous look on his face when he was like "HA I have no penis to crush so go ahead and knee my groin again!" - it was a very odd moment of triumph?

I wonder if Lena Headey is getting tired of having to SNARL so much as Cersei. She really just has to be so miserable and angry looking the whole time. Also, definition of a bad day would be threatening to have BOTH your brothers killed in front of you in the same day. Maybe hormones? LOL j/k she crazy.

Jamie, Jamie, Jamie. Brienne tried to warn you. I can't believe he fell for Cersei's trick. He has a warrior's code to follow and he is going to follow it. I wonder how long it will take for him to get to Winterfell all alone on horseback...and will Bron join him? Oooooh I hope so!

If that Ice Dragon killed Tormund HE WILL HAVE TO FACE THE WRATH OF SO MANY FANGIRLS!

So, yeah, feeling better about things after that episode. The writers totally played me. But things will not be as nice and neat as I was thinking they would be before - I figured this season would be the war with Cersei or the war in the north and the next season would be whoever is left but now it sounds like we are just going to have an epic cluster! BRING IT ON!

I don't want to say it was better than sex (because let's be honest...) but I am saying it anyway LOL... I knew something was going on... They are both too smart to fall for that high school shit! I loved how he begged for his life... He was such a little person! :D Bye Bye! You're not going to be missed!

I enjoyed Theon's scenes too and a lot. I think Jon will find it hard...
1. He loves Dany and the fact they are related will make him uncomfortable maybe... It doesn't seem like the incest is a weird thing in Westeros... The people in Kings Landing were against Geoffrey because he was a bastard (in every possible meaning) and not the produce of incest... I know that Dany doesn't find it weird, since she was supposed to marry her brother before he sold her to Drogo. But again... even in our world plenty of people from the same family got married to maintain the "pure blood"...
2. He doesn't want to be the King of the 7 kingdoms. I honestly think he will want Dany to rule and she will say "let's do it together and Drogon will create a throne for the two of them <3
3. He has always been a bastard, someone people was making fun of, he lived his life not waning to father a child because of his last name, he has been hated for no reason,... it will be hard for him to figure out his place into the world after a life like that!

I really hope Cersei will die killed by Jaime. That's the only way... and I am sure that kid (if he/she exist and it's not a way to keep Jaime on her side) will not come into that world... She's either going to lose him (too much stress too much booze the prophecy said she would have had 3 children) or Jaime will kill her while pregnant!

Jaime was indeed the best character of the episode for me since he finally said fuck this shit and went following his moral code! He is scared but he gave his word and he's going to go fight in the North. I loved this! I don't think it will take him too long since traveling alone should take less than do it with an army... I think Bronn should join him... We won't see him in Kings Landing with Cersei since the 2 actors have a contract that says they can't share scenes, so I think it makes sense for him to go north with Jaime and join Tyrion too!

I think Tormund is safe... He didn't run down the steps... he run toward Castle Black and just a portion of the wall fell... He turns and sees it falling... I think he's safe! I want to hope he is!!!

I think we're not going to have a war of the Queens... I think our heroes will destroy the WW and the people and the big houses will pledge loyalty to Dany and Jon because they are the right people to rule over them!
