thanks bish.

 

[hawk2025]

Sorry, but you're being ridiculous. I've been answering questions like 'what happened to Aryas direwolf' and 'who made up the Northern army', not paying attention doesn't make something a spoiler.

If you think this has a happy ending for you, you haven't been paying attention.

 

[Van Owen]

He couldn't have the decency to kill them without deliberately foreshadowing the whole thing?

The song was also the signal for everyone to start killing the Stark forces camping in the area around the wedding hall. Stark bannermen suffered huge losses at the wedding too.

 

[Vashetti]

"we'll let the wine run red, and put a few troubles to rest"

Not his exact quote but it was like that I think?

 

[Kayhan]

Don't worry Guys, I am sure Edmure is up to the task of taking revenge for the Starks......


...






I assume he wasn't also killed off-screen.

 

[D23]

i am still in shock of what happening
i made this comic

LOL

u and me both

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

Pinning my hopes and dreams on QUEEN ARYA now.

Here for the ARYAN DYNASTY.

ha, I wish for this too, but Im guessing, Arya is gonna go rogue, and learn how to kill everybody. Thankfully she didn't get killed, as, now she, tyrian, and snow are my fav characters.

 

[Nameless]

Every time I consider becoming more active in this thread , or most GoT discussions online for that matter, I'm immediately reminded why I mostly avoid them. Book readers literally cannot help themselves it seems.

It's a shame because this is a perfect story to break down and theorize about.

 

[marrec]

The Rains of Castamere, which the mentioned last episode. It's the story about the complete destruction of a house that battled the Lannisters.

Didn't they also play the Rains of Castamere during the credits of an episode in Season 2?

 

[BTM]

I don't even know what to say after that...I'm completely stunned. I've never experienced anything quite like that from any other television show before. Well done.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

haha, hadn't seen this one.

 

[duckroll]

If you think this has a happy ending for you, you haven't been paying attention.

There are no happy endings. He's gone, but book readers who aren't dense and can follow rules are still welcome! Like me! <3

 

[Quixzlizx]

Gotta explain it in simpler terms. Frey was pissed due to Rob back stabbing him, what does ugly or beautiful daughters have to do with that? I'm assuming the beautiful girl was just getting ready for the wedding, doesn't seem strange she was MIA for the apology,

Walder Frey had the Starks/Tullys by the balls, so he could've handed Edmure his ugliest daughter just to spite them for screwing him over the first time. The point was they should've been suspicious when Frey was willing to give Edmure his hottest daughter when he could've given him his ugliest daughter and Edmure wouldn't have been able to say shit about it.

 

[User 100115]

Yep, and had Bron and company sing it. During the Blackwater episode.

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

"we'll let the wine run red, and put a few troubles to rest"

Not his exact quote but it was like that I think?

"The wine will flow red, the music will play loud, and we'll out this mess behind us."

In the same scene: "If you wanted to hide her, you shouldn't have brought her here."


For knowledgable people, this lines were super-creepy.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

same here mang. hopefully the hound swears fealty to her (like he did to joffrey) and they kick ass all the way up to the throne. she's the best remaining character IMO other than tyrion.

I still don't know if I'm supposed to like the Hound or not. He seems okay but then he acts like a shitbag.

 

[Funky Papa]

 

[Hot Coldman]

FUCK YOUR SONG

 

[TheContact]

Bran's powers getting an insane buff was cool, but, like, the Starks now basically being an extinct house kinda cancels it out. Rickon has no-one to go to... and what, Arya and Clegane are gonna single-handedly overthrow Joffrey? As much as I love their dynamic, nah.

So many characters are totally aimless now. Where's Jon gonna go? I... god I'm glad there's another episode next week to help me contextualise what this all means going forward.

Unless next week is King's Landing centric, in which case booo.

I hope Bran Mind controls Ser Gregor or something into killing all the lannisters and the freys

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

I still don't know if I'm supposed to like the Hound or not. He seems okay but then he acts like a shitbag.

I think GoT wants to you to have a love/hate relationship with all the characters.

Except Gilly, because she's awesome.

 

[Carcetti]

Good riddance to spoiler people.

As a book reader (don't roll those eyes yet) I can't understand either the need to hint stuff or 'gloat'.

Reading a book is a solitary thing so I couldn't really share my feelings of this scene back in the day. Watching show watchers' reactions is like returning back in time and seeing that stuff with new, fresh eyes again. It's awesome but it all hinges on the fact that book readers just let people watch in peace.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Edmure Tully

His sister has been murdered, alongside his nephew and his wife. He is married to the daughter of the man who is responsible for this.

What do you think he is likely to do?

 

[MrCookiepants]

The most devastating thing was seeing Arya being carried away, after she came so close to being reunited with her mother and brother. I was waiting for that to happen all season. And then, they're dead. ;_;

 

[besada]

Didn't they also play the Rains of Castamere during the credits of an episode in Season 2?

Yep. Wait for it...episode 9.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I hope Bran Mind controls Ser Gregor or something into killing all the lannisters and the freys

I'm really eager to see what the extent of his powers truly are. We know he doesn't have been looking at a being to control it- but how close does he need to be?

 

[iNvid02]

Didn't they also play the Rains of Castamere during the credits of an episode in Season 2?

i think it was the blackwater episode

its the lannister theme tune, it will come on every time they crush their enemies

at this point the stark anthem might as well be a mashup of babies crying, wolves dying, horses being gutted, throats being slit.

 

[TCRS]

Book reader here. That fucking scene, all the feels came back. :/

 

[NathanMcMahon]

I think GoT wants to you to have a love/hate relationship with all the characters.

Except Gilly, because she's awesome.

I get that feeling too which is nice because the turn with how I feel about Jaimie now is pretty interesting. I guess it's just because the Hound hasn't had a revelation in his character changing like Jaimie. It just makes me uneasy about him.

 

[jaxword]

I still don't know if I'm supposed to like the Hound or not. He seems okay but then he acts like a shitbag.

Neither. He's a neutral in the conflict, seems to only care about money and fighting. However, he does seem to have empathy towards kids who have suffered and been abused.

The wolf getting killed in the end was the worst part for me.

This. I'm super spoiler-adverse myself, so I won;t even remark on show-only people's speculation even when it seems harmless-- I just act like those posts didn't happen. I don't come here for speculation, even other people's. No need to "correct" it or even enhance it with backstory.

Also, you should change your username to Littlefinger!

The wolf getting killed in the end was the worst part for me.

I was hoping/thinking he would bust out and tear some shit up. But he just died.

 

[Great Poster]

How's that for an anniversary, eh? Guess ol Edmure will never forget his anniversary date...'suppose Red will always be his favorite color.

Also, at this point, (assuming we "know" the story to be about ~7 tellings), we're half-way through telling #3, I'm guessing this "story" will ultimately be about the love child of Rickon and Osha and how with the help of the child of the Wizard Samwise Tarly, they reclaimed the north from the Lannister-Tyrell-Targarian triumvirate.

Also, seems like marrying (pairing) of family's is also intended to prevent revenge? I know the Lannisters wanted to lock up the north by marrying Sansa to Tyrion. But what about the Tully-Frey and Littlefinger-Lysa Aryn unions...does this somehow prevent them from avenging the Starks?

GRRM is a right bastard and master storyteller...my hat's off to you, you horrible sonofabitch!

You guys should probably watch Jamie's parting conversation with Roose again in "The Bear and the Maiden Fair", too.

 

[Forkball]

Why didn't Frey showcase his hot daughter in season one when Robb made that promise? I doubt he would've broken that oath, especially when Cat came out and hinted that they were all ugly.

Remember last season when Joffrey ordered to kill those babies? Such sweet, innocent times.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Edmure Tully

He seems like such a pussy that not much really.

 

[Trigger]

Edmure Tully

His sister has been murdered, alongside his nephew and his wife. He is married to the daughter of the man who is responsible for this.

What do you think he is likely to do?

Whatever he's told, assuming he's alive.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

Neither. He's a neutral in the conflict, seems to only care about money and fighting. However, he does seem to have empathy towards kids who have suffered and been abused.

Maybe something to do with his brother burning his face. BTW, was that mentioned before or did Arya just say it?

 

[jaxword]

It was mentioned by Littlefinger to Sansa back in season 1. Presumably word spreads fast.

 

[soundscream]

Pull out his bow and miss furiously.

 

[duckroll]

Edmure Tully

His sister has been murdered, alongside his nephew and his wife. He is married to the daughter of the man who is responsible for this.

What do you think he is likely to do?

I think he's still looking for a tree to piss on.

 

[TheContact]

For me it was the baby stab, that's just ouch

 

[Famassu]

So how many "I will quit watching diz show" rage-quitters so far?

 

[jaxword]

I think he's still looking for a tree to piss on.

No, that's Blackfish, Cat's Uncle and Edmure's father.


Edmure is likely in a Theon situation now.

Was thinking same thing. Probably to test Robb's loyalty.

 

[User 100115]

That was the Blackfish, not Edmure

Edit: beaten

 

[Hot Coldman]

So how many "I will quit watching diz show" rage-quitters so far?

I'm putting together a strike-team to attack HBO and stop production of the show right now. Taking all comers.

 

[WhereAreMahDragonz]

At least Edmure got it in.

 

[The Horror the horror]

You guys should probably watch Jamie's parting conversation with Roose again in "The Bear and the Maiden Fair", too.

I recall that, now.

So was Jaime made aware of the plans at that point, or was he merely saying it in jest?

 

[Badosh]

So how many "I will quit watching diz show" rage-quitters so far?

I've seen at least 5 or so.

 

[JB1981]

The Starks were all within reach of each other (except Sansa) last night. Bran, Rickon and Jon. Cat, Robb and Arya. So sad

So sadistic. GRRM is a mad man.
