I need to check this thread more often, so much to speak about. Bear with me while I bring up some old points...

YES U DO!

Also love this, I'm certain Aegon is a Blackfyre and also believe the comment about the "male line" being extinguished as being important. Have toyed with the idea of Varys being a Blackfyre and talked earlier in the thread about Aegon being Illyrio's son (although I declared it crackpot) - this makes sense to me.

hehe, i cant buy in to the theory of Aegon being Illyrio's son. and i feel the whole Jon Connington story cancels it out pretty well.

I'm not convinced Satin is the perfumed seneschal (his scenes with Jon in ASOS when they are on the rooftop defending Castle Black from Ygritte et al make me think he was a bit clueless when he joined the Watch - although I've been wrong many times before) although I agree with the stuff about the Citadel being against the return of dragons. Marwyn's position as being seen as an outsider in the Citadel, his secrecy from the rest of the Maesters about his trip to see Daenaerys and the skepticism Luwin displays about magic to Bran implies to me that it is thought of as foolish and a waste of time amongst the Citadel although the reason for this is open to interpretation.

i dont like Satin for that spot either. Marwyn still intrigues me to no end. and i agree with the luwin/interpretation thing.

Aye, all dead by the end of ASOS as well, more displays of the power in Melisandre's magic... or coincidence?

maybe a bit of both?

Aye, although I think the Mountain feeds Vargo his own hands and feet first, then feeds him to the bear. Brienne was in the pit when Jaime rescues her because she'd bit of Vargo's ear. Biter then makes a mess of Brienne's face when she is defending that inn Gendry is at from Rorge and the remnants of the Brave Companions he is leading.

mountain does that after jaime iirc. i think Brienne was pit in the bear pit because they thought itd be fun to watch, nothing more. i totally thought brienne was dead when biter tore into her face.

Also wondering how they will have the Boltons do it and make it plausible the Lannisters team up with them. If that was the Brave Companions rather than Bolton men, they will probably get a bit of fleshing out in the next episode. I hope they cut off Jaime's hand in the way it was meant to, as he deserved it as has been said above. Vargo had a penchant for cutting off hands in the books, but would also make sense to do it to effectively neuter Jaime, a dangerous man.

exactly!

I was also trying to work that one out. I can't remember if the Ramsay/Reek character was introduced in the last season, but I think it was an iron born who was encouraging Theon to do the kid killing stuff. I had assumed the guy speaking to Theon claiming he was from his sister was 'Wex' for some reason - the guy who ends up tongueless in ADWD who tells Manderly that he saw Rickon and Osha. However if it is Ramsay messing with Theon that wouldn't be bad introduction for the Bastard. I'm surprised they introduced Theon so early as he is missing for two whole books, are we gonna get two seasons of Theon being turned into less than a man?

we did not see him last season. we heard of him when Roose tells Robb to let him send his bastard to retake winterfell. the kid helping theon is either Ramsay, or one of Ramsays' people. pretty clear this is one of the "tests" theon will have to endure on the transformation to Reek (Reek Reek rhymes with Leak). the guy that tells theon to kill the kids was however an ironborn. i dont remember Wex [You must be logged in to view images.
