Game of Thrones: "What Is Dead May Never Die" Recap

Bran– His dreams continue. I wonder if he was born with these “powers” or if it was something the Gods (new, old or whatever) bestowed on him after (or because of) his fall. What good are dream powers anyway? He gets to see family members die early? Spoiler alert!

Hodor – Dog lover… er… I’m sorry…. Hodor.

Tyrion Lannister – Nothing as powerful as last week, but the scene where he speaks with the separate members of the small council was the lightest of the episode. Clever little guy. Tryion being made the Hand of the King has been wonderful so far. He’s slowly but surely cleaning house. Obviously, Cersei isn’t going to like this, but for now it’s going swimmingly.

Jon Snow – There is something funny about the way that Jon Snow yells. His voice does this thing that isn’t quite cracking, but sounds like a different accent. With all the injustice in Westeros, I have a feeling we’ll hear it plenty.

Samwell Tarly – Still killing the ladies… who are married to their father… Sorry, Sam. That’s a deal-breaker.

Renly Baratheon – Apparently, the entire gay storyline was made up for the show? I haven’t read the books, but that is what I’ve been told. HBO loves gay story lines that don’t really fit with a show, don’t they? From Johnny Cakes to Rawls showing up in a bar to Renly Baratheon and the Lord of Flowers. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Arya – I wonder if her kindness to the guys in the cage will come back to help her. I bet it does. If she’s trying to convince people she’s a young boy, staying up all night polishing her needle is a good start.
