I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, you're right, we haven't seen the coin! She has said she will unsay Jaqen's name, but she hasn't done it yet, right?

The dead guards being held up by their spears? Creepy cool.

Yes, stuff that was in the book that hasn't been on screen.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Stuff that's before where we are in the plotline, or after? I mean, if I read it am I being spoiled for the books, or likely for the show.?

The showrunners have said that they might be mixing up timelines of events, so just because we're past it in the books doesn't mean it won't turn up later.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The showrunners have said that they might be mixing up timelines of events, so just because we're past it in the books doesn't mean it won't turn up later.

It's so hard to talk about this show without spoilage - saying something like "Oh, huh, in the books that plotpoint happened this other way" seems innocuous enough, until the thing you thought they skipped turns up three eps later and happening to a different character.

What Jessica said.

Most spoilery stuff refers to things that happen in the books.

Ahhhh, that was great! So much what I wanted. And the Rains of Castamere over the credits was fantastic.

Man, there's a lot to cover next week.
