Having said that, it seems like they're killing off too many people this season. We get it...shock value and all but it is getting kind of old. If they kill Oberyn in favour of the Mountain, we lose a brain and remain with an airhead. Meh. -.-

I think Oberyn will win.

And I love Littlefinger. Glad to see that psycho whore dead.

Hopefully he kills that retard Robin next.

I think he will lose because it's GoT and George Martin is a sadistic bastard.

Anyway Melisandre definitely has the best female body on GoT.

Littlefinger I loved in the moment because Lysa irritates the crap out of me but I wouldn't trust him for anything. Plus he looked so creepy kissing Sansa. And, speaking of Sansa, good to see that she finally grew a pair.

BUT...I hate that we're going to lose Oberyn next. :cry: He is no fighter.
If you're interested, this is how Oberyn was described in the book. No spoilers, just the backstory.

Oberyn Nymeros Martell, Tyrion muttered under his breath as he
fell in beside the man. The Red Viper of Dorne. And what in the
seven hells am I supposed to do with him?
He knew the man only by reputation, to be sure . . . but the
reputation was fearsome. When he was no more than sixteen,
Prince Oberyn had been found abed with the paramour of old Lord
Yronwood, a huge man of fierce repute and short temper. A duel
ensued, though in view of the prince's youth and high birth, it was
only to first blood. Both men took cuts, and honor was satisfied. Yet
Prince Oberyn soon recovered, while Lord Yronwood's wounds festered and killed him. Afterward men whispered that Oberyn had
fought with a poisoned sword, and ever thereafter friends and foes
alike called him the Red Viper.
That was many years ago, to be sure. The boy of sixteen was a
man past forty now, and his legend had grown a deal darker. He
had traveled in the Free Cities, leaming the poisoner's trade and
perhaps arts darker still, if rumors could be believed. He had
studied at the Citadel, going so far as to forge six links of a
maester's chain before he grew bored. He had soldiered in the
Disputed Lands across the narrow sea, riding with the Second Sons
for a time before forming his own company. His tourneys, his
battles, his duels, his horses, his carnality . . . it was said that he
bedded men and women both, and had begotten bastard girls all
over Dorne. The sand snakes, men called his daughters. So far as
Tyrion had heard, Prince Oberyn had never fathered a son.

I cant decide who is more awesome, Oberyn or Baelish, but both made this slowish episode for me, the former for the dialogue with Tyrion (righteousness to the core), and the latter for how wicked clever he is.

As a reader i can say that Oberyn is a cool character in the books, but the revealing of Littlefinger's plans about Sansa that occured at the end of 'A Storm of Swords' (3/7 novel, in Poland divided into two volumes) made up for the whole volume for me (overall this volume wasn't as tense as the previous ones).

Ooooo thanks a million!! :D You just can't google these kinds of things without running into spoilers. I am happy to see that he is a warrior and fingers crossed he makes it out alive. However, there is one weapon that is mightier than both our prince and the mountain and that's Martin's pen, and I just can't shake the feeling that he is going to die.

Btw had a complete GoT blonde moment. For a while I thought the mountain was a group of blood-thirsty people who lived in the mountains. I really must not have been listening well. :p

He is a legendary warrior in Westeros. He will win for sure.

Also I forgot the most important part:


OBERYN :delpiero: :delpiero: :delpiero:

Wow this guy is probably my new favourite character together with Tyrion. He is a man of principles like the Starks used to be but also not as naive as they were. I hope that whole house Martell is similar. Also did you guys just see the happyness in Tyrion's eyes? Epic.


Also lol at Littlefinger. That guy will rule Westeros when this shit ends.
