Room empties, hmmm it got quiet quick. Door closes, ok somethings gonna happen. Cellist starts to play The Rains of Castomere, oh **** I know whats coming. And it was still amazing.

Really torn between reading the books and seeing how the show develops. Argggg.

What the ****. I've never been so shocked in my life.

At first, I was like...

And then, I was like...

I knew something was up when the doors closed. And when Catelyn Tully revealed the chain-mail under Roose Bolton's clothing. Even so, I thought Robb and Talisa Stark (and his mother) would get away. The shock hit me the hardest when Talisa was stabbed to death in her stomach. My goodness, I've never been this shocked even by Ned Stark's death at the end of season 1.

What they did to Robb's

body in the book is even more shocking.

Some idiot spoiled it for me a few months ago, I knew it was coming and it has had the same effect as if I had watched it not knowing.

I thought they were going to leave it till the last ep.

Same, I knew it was coming and they still managed to surprise me!

HOLY..... :o What an episode :D

Can't wait until episode 10 now and then season 04

Can't believe they killed them off :( What's going to happen now?

The remainder of book 3, which is going to be season 4 (not to mention if they decide to squeeze anything in from book 4) is more packed than this season, easily.

That would have been a terrible episode to leave viewers with till the next season. Better to have one more to give people a chance to digest it and maybe some hope. Go on hiatus with that as the last episode and I can see some viewers not coming back. Going on hiatus with

Talisa's death

and the rest as the last thing on viewers mind, not nice. I'm glad there's one more :/.

I think that she wasn't pregnant in the books? I've been told, cuz I havent read them. That was just a freebie from the showrunners I'm guessing.

1) Its not the same girl in the books. Its Jeyne Westerling in the books.

2) Jeyne Westerling does not attend the RW.

3) Jeyne Westerling does not die.

4) It is unknown if Jeyne was ever pregnant, but it is believed she was not.

The next season is going to be parts of books 3 and 4. They just announced casting for the 'new' characters from book 4.

I didn't like that the music wasn't terrible. That was a big part of the event from the novel. (The musicians were sellswords.)

Also: Did Brynden die? He also doesn't attend the RW in the novel.

Edit: Also, Rickon is growing like a weed. He's gonna be as big as Hodor next season.

Yeah, I figure Kingsmoot's in. Preview for next week's episode has Asha Yara in it, I guess they're setting up the Iron Island storyline for next season.

I didn't care about that. It's pretty clear they were sellswords anyway, and it could've been distracting if they kept the awful music.

He went to take a leak. Presumably he's escaped. Actually quite certain of it, they've never killed off anyone who has further (important) involvement in the story.

Btw I hate the spoiler tags on this forum, why don't we use the expanded boxed ones? A fair warning, a semi-spoilerish image posted below (nothing really important)

When Dany asks about Daario:

Poor Jorah, I felt really bad for him.

Please be mindful of those that haven't seen the latest episode. I had to edit some post to add spoiler tags.

Uh, spoiler rules on neowin have ALWAYS been that if the episode has aired in the US, it doesn't need tags. Most of us still do it to be nice, but you're wrong here.

I think thats an important part - and its the first clue that Catelyn picks up on. The first clue that GRRM dropped to the reader.

3.

You're right, I forgot that line. He must have swam to safety.

BOOK SPOILERS / TV SPECULATION

Will she return as Lady Stoneheart?, not sure on the whole thing just heard some stuff on Twitter about this character

Rappy stop spoiling stuff for yourself!

Anyway, fans are speculating it might happen next episode as it's titled "Mhysa" which is mother in High Valyrian. So far all the episodes had multiple meanings (Kissed By Fire referring to both Ygritte/Jon and Beric/The Hound etc) so it holds some weight. We'll see in a week.

Yeah, but even Cat is commenting more on the horrible sound than she is picking up anything. Either way, when they start playing Rains is where it's at.

3.

Haha, yeah.

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There's a brand-new update rolling out to Nvidia's GeForce NOW streaming service, and like every week, that means more games have received support on the platform. This week's drop has additions like Aphelion and Pro Cycling Manager 26 attached to it. Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active too. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Moreover, Nvidia reiterated that support for GOG single sign-in and game library is incoming this summer, joining stores like Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox. "Connect supported game store accounts and stream titles with GeForce RTX power. Games that include cloud-save functionality help keep progress intact across devices," added the company. "Start a game on one screen, pick up where playtime left off on another, and spend less time managing installs and storage space." Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Embers of the Uncrowned Demo (New release on Steam, available 13) Pro Cycling Manager 26 (New release on Steam, available June 15) Aphelion (Steam) Citizen Sleeper (Epic Game Store, Free from June 18-25) Megastore Simulator (Steam) OPERATOR (Steam) Super Meat Boy 3D (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month, with extra time being purchasable in chunks.
