I hate it when Jon Snow is called a bastard.

1 - I don't buy into the notion that children are bastards.

2 - Jon Snow isn't a bastard even by society's warped morals. (i.e. means of control)

The dragon that buzzed Jon is his dragon. Rhaegal.

Varys wants to rid himself of competition for the ear of the throne. And, he simply does not trust the religious.

Ha! Ha! "Just like you" - Have to die in a strange country. Yes! Because Varys needs to die.

No. She is NOT the rightful heir to the iron throne.

No. She is NOT the last Targaryen.

Her ignorance and her arrogance are pissing me off.

Yes, Robert Baratheon sent people to kill her. Jon was in no less danger - except for an Uncle who protected him against Robert - and at a great cost to him. Also, Eddard and Robert parted ways over the murder of children - and he voted against sending people to kill Daenerys. Both Tyrion and Varys know this - yet - they remain silent. But of course they do - it suits their purpose.

Why keep Asha/Yara alive? Alive she is a threat to Euron and Cersei has no use for her, not really.

Strategically, it makes no sense. None. Not even as a "gift" to Cersei.

Maybe she survives to fight another day. Maybe not. The show's story-line could require her survival.

The Sand Snakes and their mother are worth more to Cersei....in terms of the revenge upon revenge upon revenge of the circle-jerk revenge between the Martells and the Lannisters.

Ah, so it was Tyene Sand that was in the hold with her mother. Poor Tyene.

I do so want Cersei to die and not by taking her own life - which is likely.

Jaime is a fool. He needs to die too.

Lannisters paying their debts simply means they get revenge or return a favor as to not owe anyone - they would rather be owed.

I hate Littlefinger. Another one that has to die.

Yes! Bran!

And he needs to speak to Jon.

If Sansa is going to run from the truth, she can never truly lead.

Sam needs to go to Dragon Stone with Mormont.

Professor Slughorn has a new Harry.

flesh eating mites (to push the joke along even more)

Casterly Rock is huge.


The Unsullied are pretending to be turtles.

...and flying turtles.

and sewer turtles.

Oops. Bye-bye ships.

Oops, twice. The Tyrells.

Well played, actually.

Thanks, Rob!

Lady Olenna is Lady Olenna until the end.

See? Jaime is a complete and utter fool.

Kind of fitting, isn't it? Poison.

At least they know it wasn't Tyrion or Sansa now. Not that it matters anymore.

Shame she didn't tell on Littlefinger though.

Guess Jaime regrets his mercy now. Idiot.

and so it ends...

Oh, yeah...I forgot that pathetic sea slug...Theon.
