Warning: Spoilers
One of the more exciting episodes so far. Tyrion gets some battle action and is also informed first hand about what happened to Bran. Arya keeps herself in the running as Ned's best son, while Ned is trying to figure out what is going on with the king and his throne. Although he and his wife don't know how things are slowly starting to fall apart back at home. I'm getting more and more ready for winter by the minute.

Massive dragon skull, hope we see some dragon fights, although I've never been a fan of conveniently learning major plot points by simply eavesdropping and not being noticed.

The two guys running the underground mafia seem to be trying to out mafia each other. Turns out Arya is better at being in the mafia than both of them, which makes me roll my eyes, but it looks like everyone else is starting to acknowledge how good of a son she is turning out to be. And we're introducing a new kingdom, I was starting to wonder where these seven kingdoms were going to come from.

King finally gets it together just in time to declare war on the dude's who are clearly way more hardcore than his people. Although riding The Mountain into battle against Drogo would be pretty epic. Stark calls him on it and rolls out, but woah, 10 year old still sucking the boob...

King apparently fully realizes his kingdom is crap, but is too heartbroken to care at all. The queen has known all along and he has never felt anything for her (still doesn't give her a pass for banging her brother on the regular). Speaking of her brother, he sucks.
