    My in-laws are over Sunday night....and spending the night. Dammit!
    I think I am going to have to wait until they go to bed and watch it.
    Would be totally rude but not out of the question yet that I leave their company and go to my den and watch in the surround sound setup that I typically use for sports. There is 0 chance that they will like it so I cant put it on in the living room and then tell them to shut up every 5 minutes while they talk over it.
    :nono:
    Damn in-laws :(

    Stoked for tonight's ep!

    That was a humorous episode. The scene with the chairs in T. Lannisters room was something out of a Mel Brooks movie.

    Is it just me or are they moving Theon's story too fast?

    Did I miss some dialogue in this or an earlier episode, but was it explained how/why Littlefinger was going to marry Catelyn's sister?

    I can't wait to watch now - we'd watch during dinner, but we're not crazy about my daughter seeing it. She always manages to catch boobage or severed limbs.

    that was awesome.

    This was a good one. Nice ending - my husband (who hasn't read the books) was properly shocked.

    Yea, that episode had a bit of boobage. The scene with POD was pure lannister gold! I loved that. I'm a big POD fanboy.
    The chair scene was hilarious.

    Saying goodbye to Hot Pie :(

    As for Littlefinger and Lysa Tully i don't think they have gone too far into it but Littlefinger was always close to Lysa and stayed in touch with her. He grew up close to Lysa and Cat.

    the theon story line is not so much as being moved up as it is we are seeing parts that we did not in the book. In the book we learn about his situation through him thinking back we are seeing more of it now as it is happening instead of him disapearing and not being in the season.

    They are really dragging this Dany shit out! Love the tension between Barriston and Mormont.

    oh and THE BLACKFISH! YES he is just how i wanted him to be that scene with Edmure was awesome

    My roomate is lost and i think he is giving up on it. Which is okay because i get tired of explaining it to him :twisted:

    I may need to rewatch that scene, but has Lysa already agreed to marry him or does Tywin want him to go try to marry her so the Eyrie can be on the Lannister's side?

    They are the Brotherhood..correct? The same group that has taken in Arya?
    Or am I confused?

    Lol, thats where I have seen him. :lol: Couldn't place it.

    I haven't read the books so my jaw hit the freaking floor when they cut off his hand. I was rather confused when they were talking about who was going to marry who. Is that woman they were talking about the lady that breast fed the 10 year old boy, Cats sister? I always have to watch each episode twice. Its hard to keep all the characters and name associations straight.
    Forced to endure, what I cannot forgive.

    That's a good question. I thought they were different groups.

    No, Those are Roose Bolton's men who are loyal to Rob. The guy who does the chopping is named Locke (don't know his last name)

    The brotherhood are the Brotherhood without Banners. Those are they guys Arya is with that captured the Hound and are keeping arya. Thoros is their leader. He is the guy that disarmed arya at the tavern. He was Robert's drinking buddy. They are the forces that Ned Start sent out in season one to capture the Mountain when he started burnign the country side. They were loyal to Robert. Once all hell broke loose they really didn't join the starks or the lannesters instead formed almost their own militia trying to help the citizens in the area. In that sense they are anti lannister because they would help stop the Mountain from raping, raiding, and burning villages. Thus the lannisters want to know where the Brotherhood is hiding so they can stop them and their gurilla tactics.
