SAM THE SLAYER!
Here's my guesses for what happens in the episodes this season:
ASOS and SERIES
not sure about some of the stuff tho...
things like EPISODE SPOILERS series:
ASOS and SERIES
4. Lord Commander Dies (coldhands might show up this episode)
5. Jon Fucks Ygritte (I hope the show talks about jon's wolfdreams at this point)
6. Jon Climbs the wall (ygritte possibly dies)
7. Jaime loses his sword hand, gets injured from the bearfight
8. Showcases the battle outside Yunkai where the second sons are involved. It's probably now that she banishes Jorah, but they haven't really done a lot leading up to this. Also she didn't seem too upset about seeing him in the first place. meh.
9. red wedding
10. Likely Hizdahr zo Loraq and Daario are introduced at this point, with dany in meereen. Shit, this is book five stuff.

things like EPISODE SPOILERS series:
4. The Night’s Watch takes stock; Varys meets his better; Arya is taken to the commander of the Brotherhood; Daenerys makes an exchange.
Here I don't get it, because Varys meets his better? In the books jaime is already back at the castle and threatens varys. This is AFTER joffrey dies, which... (btw the rest is self explanatory, Arya likely meets dondarion here, dany buys the unsulled, lord mormont dies at caster's house)
5. The Hound is judged by the gods; Jaime is judged; Jon proves himself; Robb is betrayed; Tyrion learns the cost of weddings.
Tyrion learns the cost of weddings. This implies that somewhere in 4 and 5 joffrey dies and is implicated as the murderer of joffrey. This also means that they'll probably marry him and sansa off (based on earlier conversation) between ep 4 and 5. The hound fights and kills dondarian, It's either this episode or previous robb arrives in riverrun, meets the blackfish, and they set in motion shit for the red wedding and travel to the twins. But it says "robb is betrayed" likely by his "wife" who is likely a spy for the lannisters.

This made me laugh because of this thread.
Haha, thats amazing.

So remind me, who here has devoted themselves to Nathalie again?
Anyone else think she would have made a great Shae? Her acting can't be any worse than the existing one.

I don't think this is gonna happen, along with a particular scene that people are expecting between Danny and Missandei
I hope I'm wrong
Dude, no. Remember the book is split into two seasons. ASoS
Ygritte dies during the Battle of Castle Black and not when Jon escapes to go to the wall. The Purple Wedding will not be this year. The "cost" is probably something completely different - like his own wedding.
ADwD
I hope to hell Mereen doesn't show this year. I'm not ready for 3+ seasons of that place.
[ASOS; SERIES]
Besides the post above
I'm sorry to say this, but that was a terrible, terrible post.
Besides the post above
Jaime is absolutely not back by episode 4, especially if the text implies that he loses his hand in episode 5 and Bear scene isn't until episode 7.
"Robb is betrayed" isn't probably by Talisa. It might be Karstark killing some Lannisters/Freys and being beheaded or something like that, but it's to early for viewers to know Talisa might be in on the plot.
"Tyrion learns the cost of weddings" - this is definitely Tyrion's wedding, no question about it.
And come on, episode 10 is in Yunkai not in Meereen. Hizdahr zo Loraq so soon? What the hell? "Mhysa" scene happened in Yunkai after she releases the slaves.
Why the hell would Ygritte die so soon? This doesn't make any sense.

I am only partway through AFfC now, so I don't come in here much as I'm paranoid of catching a random spoiler I'm not to in the books yet. Just wanted to say I was a bit disappointed with the sword fight this week. It was just so much cooler in the books.
Also ASOS
Anyway generally been enjoying the season quite a bit. This is my first season watching having read the book first. (I watched the first two seasons last summer then started reading the books and finished ASOS before this season and jumped into AFfC recently). Definitely glad I'm reading the books though. Not just because they are so great but because they give you a lot of history and the inner thoughts on the characters really give you more of an understanding of what is going on I feel. I imagine moments like my thoughts on this recent fight will happen every now and then from here on out though.
Also ASOS
I hope they do a better job with the two trial by combats with the Hound/Beric and more so the Mountain and Red Viper. The latter was just so thrilling when I read it. I felt similarly about this Jaime/Brienne fight so I am a little worried that other one won't be as cool now.

[ASoS]
Yeah, he's more likeable in the TV series than the books, hah. I think that'll be in S4 though, I have a feeling the Meereen stuff (ASoS + ADwD) will be in S4. Especially since a late episode of S3 is called "Second Sons" and the last one is called "Mhysa", so I think the Dany arc will end at Yunkai for S3.

There's no way they're going to have Melisandre replace The Ghost of High Heart , is there?

Hmmm. I hope that doesn't mean Roose is the one who cuts off (or gives the order to) Jaime's hand. Hopefully it's the zealous "Locke" or his henchmen, and Roose tries to mitigate the Lannister's wrath about it the way it happens in the book. I want them to keep the "Jaime Lannister sends his regards" line at the Red Wedding. 
I heard of Melisandre being around the BwB, which seems very odd to me, considering she has to end up at the Wall later.. I know they kinda had to replace/merge Edric Storm, but Gendry never learns his heritage in the books so that all seems very strange to me. On the plus side, Coldhands, yay!

I think Steelyuhas is correct, but that might happen too. Replacing

Iwan Rheon, aka Simon from Misfits.
Feel like an idiot asking, but who is that between Alfie and Gwendoline....
What even more interesting to me
is Mel going to meet Arya and know who she is? No way Thoros with holds that information
Broken ankle.
Why not? The showrunners have already said multiple times that they intended on combining multiple characters as there is no way to cast them all. Plus, this is one of the few that actually fit and can make sense.. Don't see a problem.
*ASOS spoilers*
It's possible that she has already escaped with/been kidnapped by The Hound at that point.

Good call.
ASOS spoilers
it just dawned on me that there is no reference to that in the synopsis's. I would at least think it would merit a reference or episode title but that is a definite possibility that I didn't think about
Just caught up with the 2 episodes, great TV so far and I thoroughly enjoyed all the differences and new material. Season 2 was enjoyable even though it had a few things I didn't agree with, but this one is shaping up to be much better (also because of the source material). The show really feels like it's standing on its own feet now, and the cast, old and new, is hitting it out the park.
Yep!

Do we know if the show is skipping the Memorial Day weekend show or not?
It never has in the past, has it?

Jojen Reed is so cute, His eyes :3
Liam Neeson should make a cameo as Howland.
Melisandre being in those places is kinda worrisome to me... Not a big fan of them changing that storyline so much. I really wanted the Goat.
With the new synopsis' I guess that confirms that [episode 5/ASoS]
"Tyrion learns the cost of weddings" really is just him being the master of coin and having to find the money for Joffrey's wedding early next season? I also really think "Jaime is judged by men" is him losing his hand.
I would imagine it's also
Tyrion being forced into marriage with Sansa.
Espiode 7...
So that's what they're going to do with Gendry, huh. No idea how are they gonna get Melisandre all the way to wherever the hell Gendry is. I'm guessing he is going to get off'd?
Well they had Littlefinger
travelling all over in season 2. Besides, plotting a route from Dragonstone to Hollow Hill isn't that complicated if you check out the maps.

Was the traveling merchant that ran into Jamie and Brienne (the one whom Jamie suggested they kill) the same one who identified them to the Boltons? I don't recall the face.

[Series & Show spoilers]
Reviewers who have only seen the first four episodes mentioned Jamie losing his hand, so that happens in episode 3 or 4, probably before he even meets Roose. My guess is Locke is unaware of Roose's plans to switch sides and so he takes it upon himself to ensure Jamie can't pull anymore stunts.

My fear is that the show will make Roose's betrayal too obvious. We'll see how it plays out though.

Agree fully.
They've made Robb a more front and center character than the books, and bits like with Catelyn in the last episode serve to make the both more sympathetic to the audience for when the wedding happens. I don't mind them doing it, because it has the potential to work out great. I really, really hope they don't blow it with too much foreshadowing. It needs to some as a total shock. I ignore the no book spoilers thread (don't even look at it), but I will be looking at it after that episode with a bit of perverse glee.
