I guess with Jorah's exile, the only natural thing for him to do is become one of those creepy stalkers that is courteous enough obey the minimum distance on the restraining order, but obsessed enough that he only does it just so.
Jorah the friendzone creeper.
To me, you'd think that if BOTH combatants die in a trial by combat it probably shouldn't be used as the means to determine sentence.
Arya laughing her *** off was pretty entertaining, unlike that waste of time pointlessness about the smashing of beetles. Like the Honest trailer said: "Monologues"
I took the beetle monologue as a reflection of the virtue of Tyrion's character. At the most basic level, he literally cannot comprehend the acts of seemingly pointless violence that the people around him are capable of, and I imagine he finds some irony in dying just that way - crushed like some defenseless beetle under his father's rock never truly understanding why.

It's a mirror to the rest of the story. Everybody's burning Westeros to the ground and then fighting over who gets to rule the ashes. Why? What's the point?
If you asked Stannis, he would say he smashes beetles because he is the rightful heir of beetle-smashing. If you asked the Mountain, he'd say it was because smashing beetles is fun, and he's terribly good at it. If you asked Arya, she'd tell you smashing (or rather, dreaming of smashing) beetles is the one thing that gives her life meaning. But those are all self-serving reasons. In the end, they're no different than Oston just sitting around, smashing beetles because they're there and he has nothing else to do.
Anyway, I loved last night's episode because Grey Worm is getting a story arc and that dude rules.
I got the impression that Missandei at least wants to believe they are related. She asked a lot about his memories before becoming unsullied and unlike Grey Worm she does remember her homeland/past. I guess I figured she wanted to help him remember because of who she believes he is.
None of this matters really because it's one of those loose ends that the show seems to be trying to make more interesting.
Edit: Or I just misinterpreted all of that and she too wants to know if the pillar and the stones are also gone.

Well, whether or not they're related is pretty inconsequential unless the sexual tension makes it so. One way or another people shouldn't be nerdwhining about how they're maybe brother and sister and thus should be precluded them from establishing a relationship this way and developing independently of Danaerys's arc.
more importantly i would like to reaffirm that grey worm is the most underappreciated character by fans (because zomg no zingers); he is the *** anti-hound and you would not see him go out like a *** from an infected wound because he was too scared to get cauterized
"Red Viper of Dorne, you don't get a name like that unless your deadly right?"
"Never seen him fight...." "His going to die, I'm going to die" AHAHAHAHAHAHA I love Tyrion !!!
"Red viper of dawn, you don't get a name unless your deadly right?"
"Never seen him fight...." His going to die, I'm going to die" AHAHAHAHAHAHA I love Tyrion !!!
I doubt we've seen the last of the Mountain. He has too big of a reputation to be taken down like this. At least, that's what I'm hoping.
I haven't read the books, nor do I intend to (at least until the show has come to an end) - so without knowing what lies ahead, I'm hoping for a confrontation between The Mountain and The Hound.

Obryn wasn't dumb, he would have been sure the Mountain was going down, I'd wager he had some manner of backup plan, like poison. They seemed pretty focused on pointing out that his spear wasn't ordinary and the scene followed the spontaneous conversation between the hound and Arya about it.

Oh, and another thing - the Creme of Oberon scene was almost too gruesome even for me, lol. I'm always having to describe what's going on during battle scenes to my wife, since she's forever hiding behind her hands - but this was making even me cringe.
I do have to say though, Oberon repeatedly demanding a confession was very Princess-Bridish, except that Inigo Montoya wasn't puréed by Andre the Giant.

I cried not for his death (cause he should have kill the beast when he had the chance)... I cried because of my little midget what now :/
Is anyone else incredibly psyched for this? The novels are fantastic, and with Martin being one of the writers on this series, I have high hopes. Hopefully "A Dance with Dragons" is published soon, too.
