Way to try to sneak in the whole "R+L were super secretly married so Jon is totes the legitimate heir to the kingdom!" bit.
I literally flailed like an anime character at that, when Sam cut her off and went on his rant.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Secondary characters are totally winning the show.
I was hoping somewhere Jorah would mention Sam as the one who cured him, but I suppose if they survive there's time for that.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I found book!Jorah super creepy in his devotion to Dany with a stench of Nice Guy entitlement, but the bastards cast Iain Glen in the role so I can't help but love him in the show for all his faults. Wahhh.
I've had the hots for Glen for over 20 years now. I think the first thing I saw him in was an adaptation of Elliot's Adam Bede, which was (goes off the IMDb to check) in 1992. Fuck, I'm old.
Re. the Jonah-meets-Jon scene, Glen Weldon from NPR cracked me up with this description: [link]
Dany returns to Dragonstone on Drogon's back, alighting near a spot where Jon stands brooding on a cliff, cape flapping dramatically behind him like he's Bat-Hamlet. Jon and Drogon share a nice moment, presumably because Targaryen game recognize Targaryen game, and Dany asks about Davos' "knife through the heart" comment. Jon plays it off, but the nice family outing is interrupted by the return of Jorah Mormont looking older, wiser and decidedly less like a frilled lizard.
Dany and Jorah hug, and Jorah shoots Jon a look that's nuanced, wary, appraising, resigned.
Jon shoots a look back at him that says, "It windy."

Because books.

Bwah!
Iain Glen has only looked hotter as he's gotten older, for me. I caught part of Tomb Raider the other night, and he was not craggy and weathered enough at all.

Poor Kit Harrington. I think he's gotten better quite a bit (I thought he did a lovely job in his scene with Drogon in particular) but he's still out-acted by almost everybody in the ensemble.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
How have you all discussed the hotness that is Iain Glen and not brought up his VOICE? Like buttah.

Compassionately intolerant
Joining the Iain Glen love...including the VOICE. He really proves the rule that men get more attractive as they mature...well, at least in MY world.

My world, too, beekaytee.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Lyanna needs to meet Jorah
Why do people want that? Jorah is in disgrace with the Mormonts. She'd probably stab him in the heart.
