Episode 57 "The Broken Man" June 5th
Fuck shit fuck fuck shit, Arya close to death, shit fuck shit
- Well look who is alive....Sandor Clegane lives!. The Hound survived his wounds, he lives, well how about that! It looks like Sandor might finally find some peace, ummmmmm nope! All seems to be going ok with Sandor and his new friends, then the Brotherhood Without Banners shows up on horseback. And that is when things go poorly, the Brotherhood kills everybody, and Sandor is left all alone, poor Sandor
- Jon, Sansa, and Davos begin searching for allies to retake Winterfell from the Boltons, kind of like a big long sales call. They are just selling themselves like crazy, trying to sign up everyone in the North for some sweet vacation packages. You just have to listen to their seminar for one hour and you get a free buffet anywhere in Westeros. First, they secure the allegiance of the Wildlings, who are still indebted to Jon for saving them at Hardhome, and are aware the Boltons will wipe them out if they do nothing, that was an easy sell, Jon nailed it with a good speech, job well done. They also manage to secure the allegiance of House Mormont when Davos warns the young Lyanna Mormont of the dangers the White Walkers pose. Davos comes up huge, he scares the little kid with the "the dead are coming for you" line, well played Davos well played. Lyanna Mormont is a tough little girl, that kid has moxy, you have to respect her moxy, bad ass kid right there. Sadly the long sales call goes to shit when they meet with House Glover. Sansa calls out Lord Robett Glover with the "you swore your allegiance to my father line", that didn't go well. Glover gets right up in her face and points out how Robb failed to protect his home from the Ironborn, he even throws in the "I watched my wife and kids die" line. He drops the mic walks away and Sansa can do nothing. But hey overall I guess the sales trip went ok.
- Despite being heavily outnumbered, Jon is adamant that they attack Winterfell as soon as possible before the Boltons rally more forces and before the weather turns on them. Yep, you always have to worry about the weather, those storms can be a bitch in the North. Jon clearly has weathernetwork.com on his Iphone so he's on top of it. Sansa on the other hand says "who gives a fuck about the weather we need more men". Sansa sneaks behind Jon's back logs into Westeros AOL and sends an e-mail. We don't know who she sent the e-mail to? Either way Jon is going to be pissed. Not sure who Sansa sent the e-mail to but I hope whoever it is they check their trash folder, it would suck if they don't get that e-mail. Could she be asking for help from Littlefinger? I highly doubt it, but if so he'd find a way to come through, just not sure she'd ask him. My guess is she found out where Tyrion Lannister was and asked him, of course he is way the fuck on the other side of Westeros so not sure that would do any good. But who else could she be asking for help? I guess we shall see, but pretty much anybody that would help her are dead, so who knows?
- Olenna Tyrell meets with her grandaughter, Queen Margaery, and attempts to convince her to leave King's Landing and return to Highgarden. However, Margaery refuses, stating that as Queen, her place is supposed to be at King Tommen's side. Olenna is like what in the love of fuck is going on? She is telling Margaery to snap the fuck out of it. Thankfully we find out Marg is just acting, yes, woo hoo! Margaery slips Olenna a piece of paper with the sign of House Tyrell drawn on it, indicating that she is still loyal to her family. A big relief, would have sucked if the High Sparrow turned her, he hasn't, she's just playing him.
- Cersei confronts Olenna, and tries to convince her to stay and fight the Sparrows. Olenna lays into Cersei and says "you have fucked up bitch, you screwed this whole thing up, I am getting the hell outta here!" Yep she just bitch slaps Cersei. Despite having no allies in King's Landing, Cersei decides to stay and fight, we shall see how that works out.
- Jaime and Bronn lead the Lannister army to Riverrun, where Lothar Frey and Walder Rivers attempt to coerce the Blackfish into surrendering the castle by threatening to execute Edmure Tully. The Blackfish calls their bluff and refuses to surrender, Lannister steps in. Jaime takes charge of the siege and attempts to work out a deal with Blackfish. Well Blackfish doesn't give a fuck about the Lannisters and says "fuck it, bring it on bitch!" In fact he pretty much dares then double dares em to attack the castle, in other words Blackfish gives no fucks, yep no fucks given.
- Theon and Yara take the Iron Fleet to The Bunny Ranch, seems the men need some whores, I mean don't we all? Yara is having a fun lesbian time but her brother ruins it. She's had enough of Theon and his pouting, he tells him to man the fuck up or kill himself. She reveals to Theon that she plans to take the Iron Fleet to Meereen and forge an alliance with Daenerys before Euron can. Theon takes a gulp of Gatorade, mans up and he is good to go. Theon is back, he is a man now, a man with no penis, but he's a man nonetheless. No more pouting, he eats nails for breakfast, yep nails, long rusty nails for breakfast. He's back and look the fuck out. Reek is dead, long live Theon motherfuckers!
- Arya secures passage back to Westeros by bribing a Westerosi trader, not sure where she got all that money, maybe she won on a scratch ticket who knows? Anyway things seem to be looking up for Arya, looks like she's about to get the fuck out of Braavos and then ummmm I can't even say it, just to emotional for me to describe what happens next. An old lady walks up to Arya on a bridge, Arya the nice girl she is says hi, bam the old lady stabs her in the gut, the mask comes off and it is the Waif! Shit fuck shit fuck, shit! Arya manages to jump off the bridge and into the water and escapes. She is left stumbling through the streets of Braavos, critically wounded and unsure of who to trust. She is bleeding badly and close to death, it looks really bad for Arya, really fucking bad!
