Arya getting her eyes back and the dragons getting unchained were the last major/sub-major spoilers. IMO.Last edited by Birddog66; 05-09-2016, 09:48 AM.

House Bolton now aligned with Karstarks and Umbers should be a fairly large army. If not the biggest of all the armies now.
On to a few other points...
I have to say I really enjoyed the new Lord Umber's (Smalljon) repulsion towards Ramsay. Unfortunately, it came with a 'gift'. What I am unsure about is whether or not that boy is indeed Rickon, or an impostor? On one end the Umbers were banner men for House Stark, and were protecting Rickon this whole time, so I can't see why Smalljon fears Jon Snow and the Wildlings. If this is true, then what would the Umber's true intention for 'joining' Ramsay be? Perhaps revenge for the Red Wedding?
On the other side, I'm sure Greatjon's death (if he is indeed dead) is the only way Smalljon would be able to gift Rickon and Osha to Ramsay- which leads me to believe it IS Rickon. Why Ohsha was 'gifted' as well is beyond me though- maybe to make the ploy believable? Either way, this 'Rickon' is a goner for sure- probably to be flayed alive. Or in the very least he will become the new 'Reek' or will be used to bait Sansa into turning herself in. Such is life for the Starks...
And don't even get me started on the High Sparrow!! That dude is a silver-tongued devil! He Jedi mind-tricked poor young Tommen so hard it was almost unbearable to watch. He went from yelling "I AM THE KING!" (which Tywin told him previously 'any man who must say I am the king, is no true king') to taking a freaking seat next to the guy and practically accepting that his mom needs to be judged. Some heads are definitely going to 'roll' soon in Kings Landing! Trial by combat will be coming- Gregor championing Cersei and.... (my prediction) The Hound championing the Sparrows! Cleggane bowl 2016!!!Last edited by Roy; 05-09-2016, 10:03 AM.

Ok so what did every one think about Bran Stark seeing his fathers flashback? I wonder why they showed how his father fought that night at the castle of joy, was it to show him that just because he was told a story doesnt mean it was exactly true? Are they forshadowing to show that John Snow isnt his step brother after all? Also Ned Starks sisters is presumed to be in the castel but with who??? A Targaryen? Also when Bran called for his father as he was going to enter the castle the young Ned turned as if he heard something? Does this mean Bran can talk or change the past in some way??? These are just questions, I havent read the books but just so ideas to bounce around.

I had to check, Greatjon was not at the red wedding, but his brother and banner men where. It gets confusing because in the books, he was there and taken hostage. Either way, on the show Rickon was sent to him for protection. Smalljon indicated last night Greatjon was dead. Smalljon may be as he says, turning his back on traditions or there could be something else at play. Since he killed the wolf, who knows.

Part of the book, its not a spoiler, because it all already happen. Before Theon and a different character (Sansa on the Tv show) escape Winterfell, he hears Bran calling his name from a tree. He thinks it is the gods trying to tell him something. That his name is really Theon. That ultimately leads to him escaping. So its the same kind of thing. Can he change the past?? We will see, but I hope it doesn't go too far into that. Enough is happening, without changing what has already occurred.Last edited by crawdaddct; 05-09-2016, 10:21 AM.

Good thoughts from every possible angle.Some of yall are REALLY GOT nerds...
....lol!!!
I really really really like the show but if anyone has good spoiler stuff just shoot me a PM.It don't bother me at all, still gonna look at it 2 or 3 times before the next show comes out. At least we know some heads are gonna roll this season but seems like they could spread it out in all the shows a little more instead of multiple lead ups.
Now, the folks on ShowTime are smoking with this years Penny Dreadful!!!
