Renly's death shocked me. I liked Renly, but I also really like Margery, so I hope we see more of her.
The Cat and Brienne scene of oaths was surprisingly touching.
I need to watch it again, though. I was half asleep.

Yeah, it was an excellent episode this week.
So many missed chances for poor Westeros! A Renly/Stark alliance could have made this a much shorter series, tho.
Very true.
Are you guys finding Jaquen a little bit disappointing?
I guess in my head the red/white hair was much more distinctive.
Yeah, his hair is not like I pictured, but I like how understated he is in general, so maybe the understated hair goes with that.
Man, I love Brienne a lot. And the dragon cooking his tidbit of meat was fantastic.
Yes, and yes.
So many missed chances for poor Westeros!
Isn't this the theme of the whole series? I feel like "If only that guy hadn't been brutally murdered just now, we could have had peace!" pops up about every couple hundred pages or so.
Oh, I really loved Margarey Tyrell's "No. I want to be the Queen" moment.
Yes, it was another place where they showed that she isn't a pawn.

Yes! I've loved the actress since The Tudors, but last week's scene blew me away -- so pragmatic and reasonable and smart. And this week, it was so clear that she was far more aware of the implications of her situation than her poor brother was.
