Excited to see the pay off for the Tower of Joy, even if I already know the outcome

Not technically spoilers below, but speculation. If you don't like reading that type of stuff, stop now.

Been reading some people saying that wasn't really Shaggydog.

I thought it looked quite small for a direwolf but also that surely Ramsay isn't that easily fooled.

Anyway, those speculating have a decent point about SmallUmber basically doing nothing but trash talk the Boltons the whole time. Perhaps "the North remembers".

Also pretty sure the Wall is destined to fall. It will largely be a massacre like Hardhome, forcing any survivors south.

I don't know if it was or wasn't shaggydog but I do believe there is more to the Umbers handing over Rickon than meets the eye. Smells an awful lot like a double cross to me. Reckon the north is going to turn on Ramsey

Haha I get it though
The show really needs a character like Ramsey. He gives everyone some to really hate. I like having him around to do crazy **** that makes everyone mad

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Get a dog up ya, Simo.

That was a great episode.

Very female episode, they're all stepping up. Except Osha, I supppose. She's laying down.

They do big scenes like Dany's well. Really enjoyed that.

Cersei is close to the best character of the series. I love her.

Jon Snow's a bitch :lol:

Another good episode.
I do wish they'd follow the books a bit more. That hodor thing is completely different

From what i've read, the books haven't addressed the origin of "Hodor" yet.

That was one of the best payoffs of the series. Very powerful.

Had nothing to do with holding a door.
I can't remember specifically, but he was a stable boy, but iirc he always just spoke jibberish, and hodor was just part of his dialogue, and became his name.

Cut about Hodor. Although did he actually die? There were a few characters that were left with open returns.

Also another useless wolf bites the dust in pretty weak fashion. Do they come back as white walkers like people?
