I haven’t read the books! I have
them, but I haven’t had a moment to read them. I’m busy trying to keep my head
above water; I can’t swim. If I had read the books, then I would have been
prepared for last night’s shocker.
The Rains of Castamere started out
fine. Robb Stark (Richard Madden), his pregnant bride, mother and army went to
the Twins for a wedding. Edmur was to be married to one of Walder Frey’s (David
Bradley) daughters. But there was some tension between the Starks and Frey.
Why? Catelyn (Michelle Fairley) had promised Walder Frey that her son would
marry into the family. She did this without telling her son, but Robb refused
the offer and married Talisa (Oona Chaplin). No big deal, it was just water under the
bridge, right? Wrong!
The Wedding ceremony went without a
hitch; the bride and groom (Edmur) were carried away to the bridal chamber
after a night of food and drinks. Then Frey gave the signal for the musicians
to play a tune and that’s when the sh_t hit the fan!
While the music played (Think of
the baptismal scene from the Godfather) Robb, Talisa, Catelyn, and all Robb’s
men were butchered. Damn!
Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) on the
other hand is doing fine!
She has two stud muffins, Daario (Ed Skrein)
and
Jorah Mormont (Iain Glen)
fighting for her attention, while they do all in their power
to bring her closer to the Iron throne.
Jon Snow (Kit Harington) gets into a fight with the
wildings when they try to kill a Northman. He doesn’t know that the Stark boys
are on that farm.
After the dire wolves
come to the rescue, Jon rides away and leaves Ygritte (Rose Leslie behind. Is he nuts? Have
you seen her fight? She’s going to kill him; you know a woman scorned and all
that stuff.
Next week is the season finale. I
hope there are no weddings in this episode. My nerves can’t take it.
