So, apparently we DO care about Rhaegar and Lyanna
Of course we do!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There are any number of similar bits of history that have either been only vaguely mentioned or have not been mentioned at all. The conversations we got in this episode seemed very much like "We're just gonna put these dots here. No reason. Connect them? Why would you think that? That's silly." So I have to think there will be Relevance.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Petyr clearly doesn't believe the "kidnapped" part.

Note also that Ned was not a king. He was Lord of Winterfell, and the King's Hand and the Warden of the North. But it was only Rob who took up the old crown as King of the North.
So when Melisandre is coming on to Jon Snow because she wants to make shadows, she needs the blood of kings.

Hil, no, I do not believe it has. I'm not sure we've talked about Lord Reed really at all.
Well, historically, the Starks were kings, even if there was a significant gap in there without the title.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So many dragons this ep! Whee! Hi Drogon!
I like that Dany is finally getting proactive about this, but I'm not sure giving her babies a taste for human blood is such a great long-term plan.
BIG CHANGE FROM BOOK with Jorah getting infected with greyscale! And actually a really good decision, I think.

I think I like it. The reveal mostly reminds me of the zombie episode of Community, but I'm sure that will pass with further developments.
