ORIGINAL: st3veebee Slightly dissapointing episode, but it was always going to be after that masterpiece. Some things annoyed me: -I'm not sure how news of Tyrion coming to the resuce got past Tywin etc. and why he has nwo lost his title and power etc. I guess he annoyed one too many powerful people. Tyrion was only hand in Tywin's absence, once the father was in King's Landing, he assumed the position. As for Tyrion's success in battle, it was routed within the forces, the dramatic joining of Lannister and Tyrell at the last minute was always going to eclipse his actions, especially as they made it to the thrown room and effectively ran the glory leg. Also, I doubt anyone is really ignorant of Joffrey's cowardice, but in light of the victory everyone's pretending it never happened. quote:
-I was a bit confused about the whole Jon Snow fight sequence. I was sure he and the other chap were going to try and escape by pretending to fight one another but then...the other guy was killed by Jon. Bit lost there. Did he just hate Jon for letting the girl escape? Was the other guy letting Jon prove himself to the tribe? Yep. It was the only way he could ingratiate himself with the Wildlings. the half hand understood this and knew that he had to sacrifice himself or they both would die, leaving no one to carry any warning. quote:
And why suddenly is it a good idea to ditch Sansa as queen?? Why not before? An alliance with Tyrell's via Margery is a much more attractive prospect at this point. Sansa was little more than a glorified hostage anyway, the betrothal probably lent some legitimacy to her being kept in Kings Landing, but her changes of actually becoming queen have been slimming for the minute Ned's head rolled. You could see the doubts in her queenship forming in Cersi's mind last week when she started to say things like 'If you become Queen', rather than 'When you become Queen'.
