True Blood Recap: If You Love Me, Why Am I Dyin’? – Episode 3
Posted by: | Comments
Tonight on True Blood Episode 3 “If You Love Me, Why Am I Dyin’?” we learn that Eric has TRULY lost his memory! Looks like vampires aren’t the baddest bullies on the block – some witches are powerful enough to stop them in their tracks.
Here’s what else happened tonight:
Sookie thinks Eric is simply being difficult when she sees him walking along the road by himself. So she drives away only to have him do his vamp-thang and suddenly appears beside her car. She then realizes something is wrong when he tells her “I know what I am – I just don’t know who I am.” She agrees to help him figure out what happened to him as long as he doesn’t touch or bite her.
Tara is upset that she’s once again been attacked by a vampire. If you’ll remember, last week she attempted to defend Marnie when she was attacked, only to have Eric focus his attention on her. Once she’s done complaining Lafayette attempts to put things into perspective for she and the witches in the coven (as only Lafayette can):
“Bitch, climb down off that cross for two seconds, you don’t think it freaked my shit out?” “It’s not just any fanger it’s Eric Northman, who’s fuckin’ ancient and stupid powerful and can kill all of us. And now he probably will.”
I love Lafayette!
Meanwhile, Jason, who’s been repeatedly bitten by Crystal and Felton realizes they plan to turn him and then use him to make more werepanthers since their numbers are dwindling.
Call me weird, but I’m lovin’ the new more ballsy Bill Compton. In previous seasons I always felt Eric thought he had the upper hand but now Eric realizes Bill isn’t someone to be toyed with. Tonight Bill has to deliver a sentence to a vampire that was caught on film feeding on a human (check out http://vamps-kill.com). According to Bill, that’s against vampire law and as such, he has to be punished. The sentence? THE TRUE DEATH. And Bill is pretty cavalier about issuing the sentence too. Perhaps he’s getting a bit power hungry but deep down I still like Bill. Why? Because I believe he still loves Sookie and that he’s only doing what has to be done to ensure their survival. And as the King of Louisiana he’s in a better position to do that.
After Bill sentences the careless vamp he’s visited by Jessica. She confesses that she fed on a human at Fangtasia which causes him to remind her that if she’s caught doing that on film even he won’t be able to protect her. He then plays the good Dad and tells her to “vamp up” and tell Hoyt what happened. Aw, see, this is what I mean about Bill. He’s really a nice guy.
Sookie then calls Pam to tell her that Eric has lost his memory. Pam does her vamp-thang and rushes over. Eric doesn’t recognize her and Pam realizes that the witches did something to her. She asks Sookie to hide Eric away because if the AVL finds him they’ll want to kill him. sookie agrees but tells Pam she wants to get paid for watching over Eric.
When Jessica goes home Hoyt immediately starts hassling her for being out so long by herself. He then accuses her of bringing back some doll that they threw away. Hmmn, I must have missed when that happened. Anyway, Jessica tells him what happened, he hits the roof, and she decides to glamor him into thinking he’s not angry. She looks sufficiently guilty for doing this which tells us she’s still cares for him.
Okay, we’re at the 30 minute mark (it’s 9:30pm EST) so I’m going to go ahead and publish this post. I’ll keep adding to it as the episode continues!
Sookie visits Alcide, asking him to help her with Eric and discovers Debbie Pelt is back in Alcide’s life. Debbie apologizes to Sookie for trying to kill her and tells her she’s a changed woman. I have to say, Debbie looks like a new woman.
Alcide agrees to help her hide Eric but Sookie decides not to take him up on his offer. Hmmn, Alcide doesn’t seem to happy to learn that Eric is staying at Sookie’s house.
Tommy, still living with Maxine Fortenberry, answers her door and finds a guy there who wants to purchase the natural gas rights to Maxine’s land. He offers $10k per acre to which Tommy has a brain fart or something and suddenly starts negotiating with the guy like Donald Trump.
At Merlotte’s Tara asks Sookie to try to persuade Eric not to seek revenge against Lafayette. Sookie lies and tells Tara that she hasn’t seen Eric because he’s missing. They’re interrupted by Sam who ends up behind the bar sharing a drink with Tara. He wants to make sure she’s accepted his two-natured status. She has. Sam tells her she can camp out at his place if she like; she declines and tells him she’s seeing someone. He tells her “so am I.” I assume he’s referring to Luna (who I don’t completely trust by the way).
They’re interrupted by Jesus who tells them Lafayette has disappeared from Merlotte’s. Jesus and Tara drive away looking for him.
Meanwhile:
-Bill is approached by Portia Bellefleur who propositions him for sex. Bill tells her that he could never love her.
-Jessica gives demon-child Mikey the dirty doll that she and Hoyt tried to throw away. I’m sorry but that doll looks evil.
-Tommy propositions Sam about taking advantage of Maxine and cashing in on her natural gas offer, without telling her about it.
-Portia and Bill have sex.
-Sookie goes back hom looking for Eric and finds that he’s left.
-Turns out Pam is responsible for Lafayette’s disappearance. She’s taken him back to the dungeon where he was tortured but Tara and Jesus come to the rescue. Tara holds a gun on her (with wooden bullets) while they reach an agreement to deliver lead witch Marnie to Pam in 24 hours. If they don’t Pam promises to “eat, fuck and kill” all three of them. One can only hope it would occur in that order.
-Marnie offers a sacrifice to the spirit that gave her the power to put the spell on Eric. She’s not quite sure why she was chosen by the spirit; she slashes her wrist and the spirit appears to her.
-Jason, boy toy, awakens to find Crystal getting busy with him against his will (he’s tied to a bed). We then see there’s an entire line of women waiting to have their turn with him.
-Sookie is visited by Claudine who is still trying to get her to return to fairyland. She tells her that she’s the one that helped her defend herself against the drainers the night she first met Bill. Just then, Eric attacks Claudine and COMPLETELY DRAINS HER DRY.
The episode ends with Sookie telling Eric “you just killed my fairy godmother”. Eric looks at her with a guilty look on his face and says “Sorry.”
It’s interesting watching Eric – he has this innocent, naive way about him that’s pretty endearing. To see the infamous “Bad Eric” here’s where you can Watch True Blood Free Online.

Bill Is The King Of Louisiana And You Smell Like Dinner, True Blood Episode 2
Posted by: | Comments
Bill is the King of Louisiana and living large in tonight’s episode of True Blood. Yes, Sookie is in for quite a surprise when she learns that her old boyfriend has moved up in the world since her trip to fairyland.
Here are the Top 10 highlights from “You Smell Like Dinner”, tonight’s episode of True Blood:
#10: Jason is tied down to a bed and held prisoner by the crazy ass inbred folks in the small community of Hotshot. He almost talks one of the kids into untying him when Felton barges in with a shotgun.
Later, when Andy Bellefleur comes by accusing them of dealing “V”, Crystal has to hold a knife to his neck in order to keep him quiet. Felton, realizing that Andy is hooked on “V”, sends one of the Hotshot guys out to give him a vial of the stuff. This works and Andy tells them he’s taking the “evidence” away with him.
#9: Anti-vampire protesters have set up camp outside Fangtasia. Hoyt approaches one of them but then gets beat down by a few of them. He takes his punches like a man (I really like him) and gets in a few good hits himself.
But alas, he and Jessica are still having relationship problems. When Hoyt refuses to drink her blood to help him heal, Jessica leaves with the initial intent of getting him some Advil but then decides to go to Fangtasia, where she again encounters the anti-vampire protesters. But she also sees the cute guy from last week’s episode who she takes into the bathroom and sucks his blood.
#8: They Call Me Mr. Sam: A naked Sam (who has one of THE best butts in prime time) tries to get busy with one of his new shape-shifter friends the lovely Luna, but she’s a shy filly (heh, heh) and runs away from him.
But later, she shows up at Merlotte’s and makes it clear that she’s interested in him. Sam makes a date to see her later that night.
Okay, but the date entails sitting around a campfire with the other shifters. It’s there that Luna confesses that she once shifted into the form of her mother. She tells them about skin walkers, who the Navajo’s believe are able to shift into the form of any other animal, including the form of a human. But here’s the catch: you have to kill someone in order to do that. She then reveals that her mother died giving birth to her. Um, there’s something not quite right about Luna.
The campfire party is interrupted by Sam’s brother Tommy, who’s spying on them. Sam chases and tackles him and learns that Tommy wants him back as a brother. They agree to try to start trusting one another.
#7: Sookie goes to see Bill and learns that she’s “on the list” and is cleared to enter his home, which by the way, is REALLY pimped out. Sookie opens the door as Bill and Katarina are getting dressed after getting busy. Yes, it appears that Bill moved while Sookie was hanging out with the faeries.
Sookie asks for Bill’s protection from Eric. Bill suggests that she seek shelter in another human’s home. She’s not too pleased with that answer but she’s even less pleased that he’s the new King of Louisiana.
#6: Flashback Time! We take a trip back in time to 1982 London when Bill was a punk rocker that got his blood fix in dark alleys. Fortunately, he was still a fairly decent blood sucker. This attracts the attention of Nan Flannigan of the American Vampire League who tells him that Louis Pasteur (a vampire) is working on a synthesized blood invention that will satisfy a vampire’s craving for human blood. She asks him to work with her cause to infiltrate the vampire groups that still want to hunt and kill humans.
We later see Bill being visited by Sophie Anne, the Queen of Louisiana. The AVL vampire SWAT team soon makes mincemeat of her at Bill’s command. After that Nan Flannigan pronounces him King of Louisiana.
#5: Poor Little Mikey. Arlene is so convinced that he’s evil that she’s losing it in public. Later, the baby spits in her eye and then appears to SMILE AT HER in a goofy baby way. Okay, I’m on to that kid. That’s not gas that’s causing him to smile like that. That baby’s teched!
#4: Tara startles Sookie by coming to visit her. The thing is, as Tara was approaching, Sookie has a vision of the evil fae running toward her. After she enters her house (which is actually now Eric’s house since he purchased it while she was away) she finds that Eric has built himself a cubby (a place to “sleep” during the day) in her house. Coffins are so last season.
#3: Bill warns Eric about the new coven in town, telling them about their ability to bring a bird to life. He says “if they can control the dead they can control us.” Eric takes him seriously and agrees to take care of the issues.
#2: Tara drops in on Lafayette and Jesus and they talk her into coming with them to a witches coven. At the coven meeting, Marnie tells them that they should attempt to raise a dead body.
And then, ERIC ENTERS!
This scares the hell out of everyone of course. Eric tells Marnie that her coven can no longer meet. When Marnie asks “what’s in it for me?”, Eric tells her that her terms are NOT negotiable. Eric then attacks Marnie, sucking her blood. When Tara attempts to help Marnie, Eric turns his attention on her but by then the witches have joined hands and started chanting. Marnie then begins channeling some ancient chick that begins speaking a chant in a foreign language. I’ve never seen Eric scared before but he’s definitely bleeping his pants at this point. When they’re done chanting Eric runs away.
#1: Crystal and Fenton decide that they want Jason to be one of them. She and Felton change into werepanthers and Crystal bites Jason in the side! Ooh, if you’ve read the books you know where this storyline is going!
The episode ends with Sookie finding Eric walking in a daze on the side of the road. Not only does he not know who she is, he doesn’t even know his own name. If you’ve read Dead To The World you know a bit about what just happened to Eric. I have to say that this is one of the best books in the series and marks the time when I truly fell in love with Eric’s character. Even if you haven’t read the earlier books you can read this book as a standalone. It’s REALLY good.
Ooh, True Blood the series is heating up! Check out the article Watch True Blood Online to get caught up on previous episodes.
It’s The Witching Hour on True Blood Season 4, Ep1 – She’s Not There
Posted by: | Comments
Holy Fairy Godmother Batman! Tonight’s episode of True Blood Season 4 titled “She’s Not Here” starts off with a repeat of the True Blood Season 4 Preview from last week. But then, it’s off to the races. There are so many jaw dropping surprises that my head is still reeling.
So without further ado, here’s a pictorial recap of the episode:
After her trip to fairyland, Sookie returns home only to find a group of movers in her house. It appears that Sookie has been gone for a LONG time. So long that people assumed she was dead. In fact, Jason (who’s now a bona fide policeman) finds her in the house and tells her she’s been gone for “twelve and a half months.” To Sookie, she was only gone for 10-15 minutes. Sookie discovers that everyone thought she’d been killed by vampires.
Sookie (who’s still the sweet girl we love) gives Jason their grandfather’s pocket watch which is the only thing they have left of him.
And then, Bill appears on her porch, still professing his love for her. Unfortunately, Eric soon follows but Bill tells him to go away. But not before Eric says “everyone who claims to love you, your friends, your brother, even Bill Compton. They all gave up on you. I. NEVER. DID.”
When Andy Bellefleur (who’s now addicted to V) appears demanding to know where Sookie’s been, Bill defends her by telling Andy that she’s been working for him the entire time. Turns out, everyone thought Bill had killed her.
Even so, Sookie can’t totally forgive Bill his betrayal.
I love Lafayette’s new mohawk! He and Jesus visit a witches coven gathering. Holly is there along with some other new characters. The coven leader, Marnie, has a premonition about Lafayette and Eddie (remember Eddie the really nice vampire?). Well, Marnie picked up on that right off the bat and even starts speaking like him.
Lafayette gets angry at Jesus for taking him to the coven meeting, feeling he was set up. However, Jesus keeps telling Lafayette that he has a gift that he shouldn’t keep denying. He invites Lafayette to another meeting.
Andy Bellefleur is then manhandled by Andy who accuses him of holding out on him with his V. Fortunately, Jason comes to the rescue. Imagine that, Jason appears to have matured quite a bit and seems to be the only person that can keep Andy under control.
Meet Mikey – Demon Child. Arlene’s given birth to Rene’s child, little Mikey who seems to be JUST LIKE DADDY! Arlene finds him on the floor quite happy since he just pulled the heads off a bunch of Barbie dolls. This freaks her out of course since she’s convinced the kid is possessed.
Meet Tara, Warrior Princess. Since the season finale of True Blood Season 3 we saw Tara driving away from Bon Temps into the night. Turns out she’s been making the female wrestling circuit, fighting people in cages.
Okay, that’s not all that’s different about her. She’s apparently got a new FEMALE significant other. AND a new name. She’s now known as “Tony.”
What the Hell! Tommy, Sam’s brother, is now living with Maxine, Hoyt’s mother. And he’s now somewhat of a religious fanatic.
Jessica and Hoyt are living together and are having a few problems. While dancing at Fangtasia Jessica is approached by a cute guy and clearly wants to flirt back. When she goes to the ladies room Pam follows her and accurately identifies Jessica’s problem: she wants to hunt and drink the blood of other humans. Jessica denys it but it’s clear Pam is dead on (no pun intended).
Sam has new friends. He’s part of a sophisticated group that drinks fine wine, strips down naked and then shape shifts into horses that run through the woods at night.
Jason has become the surrogate dad to the poor and hungry kids at Hotshot. However, while attempting to grab something from the bottom of a large freezer, he’s hit over the head and shoved in – and the freezer is locked from the outside.
Lafayette can’t stay away from the witches. While at another coven meeting and sitting in a circle and holding hands with the rest of the witches, he witnesses their ability to RAISE THE DEAD in the form of a small parrot. It doesn’t live for very long but Marnie, the leader, is quite pleased with their accomplishment. It looks like Lafayette’s power helps make them stronger.
Oh, and one of the witches is clearly a double agent. She leaves the group to meet secretly with Bill.
BTW: Eric and Bill have become ambassadors of the new “We Heart Vampires” campaign headed by the American Vampire League. It’s hilarious to see them act like politicians trying to get votes.
While naked Sookie drys off from a shower she’s approached by Eric who tells her that he’s the person who purchased her house. Why? Because he always knew she was alive. Unfortunately, since Sookie no longer owns the house she can’t banish him from the property. The episode ends with Eric baring his fangs and telling Sookie “YOU ARE MINE.”So, what was the biggest surprise for you in tonight’s episode? Hit me up in the comments.

True Blood Season 4 PREVIEW
Posted by: | CommentsAwesome!
In the True Blood Season 4 preview we join Sookie in the Land of Fae. While there learns that Claudine is her fairy godmother, she meets up with Barry the Bellhop and gets a chance to talk to her grandfather (who must be her maternal grandfather because he doesn’t realize where he is. As you know, in the book her paternal grandfather is a magical creature.).
I tell you, fairyland is lovely, full of light and peace and new age music.
But not all is well in fairyland. Sure enough, Sookie realizes that the “light fruit” everyone is eating is bad. When approached by Queen Maeb, she realizes the Queen is someone that shouldn’t be trusted. She’s right.
In order to get away from the fae she she uses her power against the Queen which causes the fairy fascade to disappear and their true surroundings to be visible. It’s then that Sookie realizes she’s actually in a dark and evil place.
She and her grandfather run away from the evil fae until they come to the edge of a cliff. Sookie’s told that she has to make a choice: either stay in fairyland or go back to the human world. She has to think quick because the evil fairy queen is closing the portal between the two worlds.
Sookie chooses the human world and the preview ends.
I can’t wait for True Blood Season 4 to begin!
After a surprising decision by his father, Tyrion heads south. Arya assumes a new identity in an attempt to escape King’s Landing, At the Wall, Jon is forced to choose between the Night’s Watch and the family he left behind. Across the sea, Dany pays a terrible price for her love, but finds new hope.
Tonight is the Season 1 Finale of Game Of Thrones. I’m glad I was able to catch every episode since this is a FANTASTIC TV show!
As I was watching tonight’s Game Of Thrones finale a few songs went through my head. So each highlight is titled with a song which I think best describes what happens in the scene. Check out songs from Lady Gaga, The Smiths, Depeche Mode and others.
Top 10 Highlights from Game Of Thrones Episode 10: Fire And Blood
-
If I Were A Boy: One of Lord Stark’s men grabs Arya after she witnesses her father’s death. While telling her they’re going north he begins cutting her hair and referring to her as “boy.” Later, he gives her some advice on how she should behave, telling her that she’ll be in the company of cutthroats, thieves and rapists. Sure enough, a bully attempts to take her sword from her but Arya, not one to shy away from many people, pulls her sword Needle on him. He wisely backs down. Interestingly enough, one of King Robert’s illegitimate sons befriends her.
-
Caught Up In A Bad Romance: King Joffrey is one cruel and sick boy. When displeased with a singer’s performance, he gives the man the choice of losing either his tongue or his fingers. He’s not kidding either. He then takes Sansa to the tower where he shows her Lord Stark’s head on a stake. He promises her that after he raises an army, he’ll put her brother’s head on a stake as well.
-
Smack My B***h Up: Lady Catelyn has the opportunity to question Jaime Lannister about his role in her son Bran’s fall from the tower. When Jaime starts talking junk she picks up a rock and bashes him in the head. She then asks him what happened to her son Bran and he straight up tells her that he pushed Bran out of the window hoping the fall would kill him.
-
Wish You Were Here: Tywin Lannister sends his son Tyrion to King’s Landing to serve as The Hand Of The King to the evil King Joffrey. Tywin recognizes Tyrion’s intelligence and basically wants him to watch over the doings of Joffrey and his mother.
-
Zombie: When Daenerys awakens she learns that her newborn son was used as a sacrifice in order to keep Khal Drogo alive. When she asks to see her son the witch tells her “he was scaled like a lizard, winged. When I touched him his skin fell off.” However, the sacrifice worked. Sort of. Khal Drogo is indeed alive. But he’s in a vegetative state. He can’t speak or move on his own.
-
My Last Breath: Daenerys, totally distraught about Khal’s mental state, decides to take matters into her own hands. She grabs a pillow and smothers him. Yes, Khal Drogo is dead.
-
I Smell A Rat: Varys and Littlefinger have a chat about what they’d do if they were king. Varys tells Littlefinger that he’s one of the few men in the kingdom that doesn’t want that job. Littlefinger then makes comments about Varys’ eunuch status, surmising about his remaining equipment (or lack thereof).
-
Let’s Get It Started: Jon Snow, who’d recently tried to desert the Night’s Watch in order to join his family in the fight against the Lannisters, is rallied by his commander who tells the recruits that they’re duty bound to protect the Wall from white walkers and others. He’s inspired by the speech and has accepted his destiny to serve and protect.
-
Through The Fire: Daenerys gives Khal Drogo a proper burial which involves placing his body on a funeral pyre. Her 3 dragon’s eggs are placed with him and the evil witch is lashed to the pyre as well. Ser Jorah, who realizes that Daenerys plans to sacrifice herself, begs her to reconsider but her mind is made up. The fire is lit, the crazy witch (who’s burning) starts singing, and Daenerys walks regally into the fire, not making a sound.
-
Lotus Flower: The next morning Ser Jorah finds a naked Daenerys ALIVE in the fire pit with 3 hatched dragons!
Season 1 of Game Of Thrones has ended!
Game Of Thrones Episode 10 Song Playlist
Here are some of the songs that were going through my head while I viewed this episode:
War Is Waged in Baelor, Game Of Thrones Ep9
Posted by: | Comments
The battle begins in Game Of Thrones, pitching Starks vs. Lannisters. But of course, more than just the soldiers have their lives at stake . . . .
Ned refuses to which Varys replies “what of your daughters my lord?” and leaves.
The witch asks that Khal’s horse be brought into the tent – she then slaughters the horse, spilling buckets of blood on Khal. But here’s the rub: as the witch chants, strange sounds come from the tent. When one of Khal’s men tries to enter the tent Ser Jorah, who has donned his armor at Daenerys’ request, kills him.
As the strange sounds continue coming from the tent Daenerys goes into premature labor. The scene ends with Ser Jorah carrying Daenerys into Khal’s tent.
Later, she, Tyrion and Sellsword Bronn play a drinking game where they try to guess about each other’s past. The game reveals that Tyrion’s new lady friend didn’t come from a checkered past. Tyrion then tells the group a pretty tragic story about his wife.
The next morning, Tyrion is awakened by Bronn who tells him that he’s wanted at the front to fight. He rallies his ragtag group of mountain men who quite willingly rush off to do battle. As a matter of fact, they’re so enthusiastic that they knock Tyrion unconscious in their excitement. Yup, Tyrion missed the entire battle. Once again, he’s awaken by Bronn who tells him that they won their battle (which was against 2,000 Stark soldiers instead of the 20,000 they’d planned for).
Although Robb Stark’s men lost the first battle with the Lannisters, he’s successful in one respect: he captures Jaime Lannister! His victory is bittersweet though because 2,000 of his men were killed and he’s not yet freed his father and sisters.
As the episode ends, Lord Stark dies.
Yes, Lord Stark is dead and although I knew this was eventually coming but I must admit I’m still sad. Sean Bean was a superb Lord Eddard Stark.
The stakes in the Game Of Thrones just got higher.
It’s Fight Night in Game Of Thrones Ep8: A Pointy End
Posted by: | CommentsHere are the Highlights from Game Of Thrones Episode 8: A Pointy End
While practicing her swordsmanship, Arya and her instructor Syrio are surrounded by Lannister guards who demand that Arya come with them. They tell her that her father has sent for her. Syrio and Arya aren’t fooled because they know Lord Stark would never use Lannister guards. Syrio tells Arya to run while he holds off the guards. Before she leaves he’s defeated all but one armored guard, but that guard is pretty strong and is able to but Syrio’s sword at the handle. Arya runs away as we hear additional battles underway in the castle.
Sansa, Lord Stark’s oldest daughter, is told by the Queen and her men that her father is a traitor guilty of treason against the throne. She’s told that she must write her brother and ask that he come to King’s Landing to swear his allegiance to Prince Joffrey. Sansa writes the note once she’s issued a veiled threat that her father’s life depends on her compliance.
Lady Catelyn Stark, upon learning of the King’s death and her husband’s imprisonment, asks her mentally unstable sister for help. Her sister, Lysa Arryn, refuses.
Lady Stark later makes her way to the war camp that her son Robb, has set up.
Tyrion Lannister and sellsword Bronn are surrounded by a group of mountain clansmen while attempting to make their way through the forest. Tyrion, having the true gift of gab, is able to talk the would-be attackers out of killing them. He instead promises them riches if they ensure his safety during his journey. They agree and accompanies him to the Lannister war camp where he meets with his father, Lord Tywin.
While there, he learns of the King’s death and Lord Stark’s imprisonment.
Jon Snow attacks one of his Night’s Watch instructors and is confined to his quarters. That night he’s awakened by his direwolf, Ghost, whose barking warns him of an intruder.
Snow appears to defeat his attacker but then the would-be assassin gets back up! Snow and his commander escape as Snow throws a lantern at the attacker.
Later, as he and the other rangers are watching the attacker burn, his buddy Samwell Taryel tells him that the body was actually a corpse reanimated by a White Walker. He tells them of a prediction that “the white walkers sleep beneath the ice for a thousand years. And when you wake up . . . well, you’d better hope the wall is high enough.”
Daenerys witnessing one of the Dothraki’s typical raid, rape and pillage missions, commands the men to stop what they’re doing. Her husband, Khal Drogo, confronts her about her actions and she skillfully tells him that instead of raping and killing the women, they should be used for wives. Khal Drogo agrees but one of his men does not and publicly disrespects him.
A battle ensues and Khal is victorious. All I can say is that he’s a bad so-and-so because he fights the man unarmed. He ends the fight by ripping out the man’s throat.
Unfortunately, he’s injured during the fight but one of the female prisoners claims to have healing skills. Daenerys agrees to let her treat her husband.
Robb Stark is now leading an army of men that plan to attack the Lannisters. He and his men have to decide which Lannister to attack: Jamie and his men or Tywin’s men. While planning their strategy, a captured Lannister spy is captured. Surprisingly enough, Robb lets him go with a warning for Tywin: “winter is coming. Tell him that 20,000 men of the north are marching south.”The episode ends with Sansa publicly admitting her father’s guilt while also pleading for her father’s life. She kneels before Prince Joffrey begging for his kindness.
Prince Joffrey listens and then tell her that unless her father confesses and claims Prince Joffrey as his king, there will be no mercy for him. Sansa states “he will.”
