Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"

Man, its a good thing they aren't having Rickon on anymore after this. Kid's a terrible actor and he looks like 3 times older than even what he's supposed to be on the show.
Yeah lol I didnt recall that either.
Or Frey didn't care that she was and had her killed any way.
ASOS/AFFC
It's not clear in the books. There's some implication with the pardon of the Westerlings that she had some role as a spy, or that there was work by her family to keep her from becoming pregnant (and she may not have known it), but it's all just speculation. The pardon seems to imply that the Lannister's knew for sure she wasn't pregnant with Robb's heir, otherwise there would be no justification to pardon her or her family's supposed treason (as it would likely be the spur to cause another rebellion).

He wasn't there. He was tasked with holding Riverrun.
ASOS/AFFC
The RW was orchestrated by Bolton and Frey with the Lannisters to get back into the Lannister's graces, as their contrition for their treasonous acts during Robb's rebellion.

I read ASOS a year ago and I'm still shaking and sick to my stomach.
Tywin Lannister set the whole thing up. He began conversing with Frey after Robb turned down his promise.
e: beaten above me.
its also a call back to a thing with Jamie a few episodes back too.

When Jaime left Harrenhal in episode 7, he told Bolton to tell Robb that the Lannisters send their regards. He didn't mean it nefariously or anything (he didnt know shit about what was going to happen at the twins), but then Boltonn twists it around when he actually says it
ASOS
in the book it was actually "Jaime Lannister sends his regards"

Thanks for the refresher.
Can season 4 get here any quicker.

The whole point in introducing that Stark baby story line was just to make it hurt harder. Waited three years for this episode, and now it feels just as horrible as the first time. That fetus stabbing...

The Red Wedding was orchestrated by Tywin, Bolton and Frey. All will be revealed next episode.
edit: beaten. badly. multiple times...
It was orchestrated with Tywin Lannister. Why do you think Bolton sent Jaime to Tywin and not to Robb? Also, Jaime is the one who told Bolton to send Robb his regards when they last parted at Harrenhal. But I'm sure you can surmise that Jaime could not have plotted this

didnt he stay behind in River Run ?
i saw that too. made me laugh
Put an H on Hodor's forehead to really fix it for good.
Seriously? Alert a mod...but...I don't know which one has read the books.
HOLY SHIT just saw it with my friend holy crap
It's been 2 years since I read the RW, I knew it was brutal but DAMN, to see everything just crumble so suddenly, to see the Starks (in 2 separate situations!) almost meet. I think the whole episode really conveyed the whole, "The Northern rebellion is done, the Starks are screwed" message that you got in the book well. You really felt a loss of hope, and kind of a, "... what now?" feeling. I wish they focused entirely on the Starks this episode tbh, even though I know a Sansa scene probably wouldn't have fit in.
My only gripe was Roose Bolton literally side stepping out of nowhere, and delivering the line a little poorly.
Seeing Talisa killed like that, though, right after they speak of their child ... wowwowowow.

Uh, some of you guys need to watch yourselves with the spoilers HERE too.
Probably the poster that mentioned it in the first place. Edit: Oh I read your comment wrong. Duckroll I think?

Marking what book the spoilers come from has kind of been on hiatus all night. An unmarked spoiler (though tagged) might be for the next episode...or it might be for a ton of things that happen all the way up until ADWD.

In the books, yeah.
I saw it and laughed hard.
TV Stannis is a chump though. Book Stannis is a king I can get behind.

To be honest, when I first read through this book, I honestly started thinking that Martin should just have the Others take over Westeros. Fuck them all. Every one that's left. But then he started dropping crumbs, and really focusing on some characters I really like, and I realized that there is still some good in some of them... Can't have them all burn.
It does. And yes, he shouldn't have done that

Book Stannis doesn't get really interesting until the 2nd half of ASOS.
Unsuprisingly, Martin was the only one to make Stannis look like a badass, in that Blackwater episode he wrote. D&D have botched Stannis pretty badly.
Well, ASOS
people are now openly lol-ing about the other thread saying zombie cat stuff now. Don't know if they're going to show that in the next episode or next season.
