    I'm pretty sure this is a departure from the book, but Stannis was never promised a child in the books by the Red Witch. I'm not sure why they even did that unless it was to setup a pretext for them to have sex. Also, in the books they never had sex, or at least it wasn't directly mentioned but was hinted out via rumor. That was really the only glaringly strange thing I saw in the last episode.

    Also they say said that Joffery was indeed behind the killing of the bastards, but I think in the books it was Cersei.

    I haven't read the 2nd book yet, but that whole scene stunk of a forced sex scene. Those 5 minutes or so could have been put to better use elsewhere.

    I agree, it could have, and wasn't that interesting.

    Yeah, of all the parts they could have shown, that one made the least sense to me. He doesn't ever have a relationship with her, so why bother with it? I'm still a fan of the show, but their flippant use of sex scenes is kind of mind boggling.

    kind of disappointed in their use of daenerys so far too, her story in the book was pretty huge but we do have probably 10 episodes left

    No Daenerys tonight, but an excellent episode otherwise. Nothing too gratuitous with the nudity either.

    Last night's episode was great. Also a perfect example of how nudity and sex should only be used when it advances the story.

    Tyrion is freaking awesome. The imp is now my favorite character.

    He's probably the greatest character in the series in my opinion, both book and show. I'm not sure if that was intentional or mere coincidence.

    For the people who don't know, they're splitting up A Storm of Swords into two seasons, 10 episodes each, for 2013 and 2014. This should give GRRM a little more time to hurry up and finish the series!

    Major book 3 spoiler, tread carefully.

    Spoiler:
    And they've mentioned that season 3 will end at the Red Wedding. Which will make for a spectacular cliffhanger in my opinion.
