I don't think they spent enough time explaining what's going on with Bran. There's no context for anything going on in there.

I was really surprised that Varys would take the new priestess so seriously. He'd easily convince other people he's a wizard too just by reciting secrets they figured no one else knew. Seemed odd he'd be swayed so easily by a secret of his own. Also, the Light people have so far only succeeded in killing a relatively good guy (Renley), getting Stannis killed, and talking Stannis into murdering his own child. I would not be quick to side with them.

No - not with them - on her!

+1, and I would expand that to several others on the show - not just Bran. I wish they would double the episodes in a season so that they could devote more time to fleshing out these characters. Sometimes they jump around Westeros so much it feels like an Avengers movie.

Make a note: Daryl needs more flesh.



It's okay with me if they start with that new Red Priestess !

Ha, no pun was intended. Just a poor choice of words on my part.

Another great episode. I'm really loving this season.

Seeing Benjen again made for a powerful moment, imo. There are so few Starks left, and seeing him alive, and well, and protecting Bran...excellent, and unexpected. Could we be seeing another member of the Starks make her long awaited return? /hands clenched in prayer

And the ending of the ep, especially, Daenerys riding down to her Khalisar on Drogon. Wow. That little girl knows how to make an entrance, either buck naked and hot (literally and figuratively) , or on the back of a dragon.

Oh, and Arya has Needle again. That waif girl better be careful.

The only downside is now I have to wait seven more days for another episode. Damn.

I was actually loving the episode until the end. Maybe it's just me but sometimes I find Dany's story to be really corny. Or at least they're handling it in a corny way. I felt the same way about the scene where the people in Mereen passed her around.

I loved the rest of it though. I hope that many faced twerp gets needled too. I wonder if they'll put a piece of dragon glass int Bran's heart and he'll be able to walk again.

I hope Bran returns to the Tower of Joy, and sees whatever it is that Ned promised Lyanna. Though if Jon is Lyanna's son, that probably won't come until a later season. I'd also like to see Arya leave Braavos soon. Her whole story line has just been mired in quicksand ever since she got there.
