Still, not nearly as upsetting as killing Ned Stark at the end of Season 1. Robb and his mother were a bit boring and, at times, annoying.


So this all means the epileptic cripple is King of the North now, right?

I'm guessing the finale will make up for killing Robb off. We should be seeing another wedding.

No way, in my opinion. Season 3 is ending with the Lannisters on top.

I think they'll set up Daenerys making a run at the Lannisters though in this last season.

We haven't heard anything from the White Walkers since the end of Season 2(?)

That's a lot of walking, they should be somewhere by now.

Except for the one that the fattie got in the second to last episode.

But yeah. I think they're due for an appearance soon. Probably be a major player in S4.

In the book, yea, I know... No one wants to hear about the book. Anywho, Geoffrey and Margery get married right after the Frey wedding. And some big things happen there. I'm guessing that's how they end the season.

Sam killed the walker with the dragon glass a couple episodes ago.

I hope so. Seems like the first two seasons the action was maybe the penultimate episode, with the finale more to tie-up some loose ends and tease/set-up the next season.

And not that it matters, but are we to assume Frey also killed his new son-in-law? Actually, I think not or he wouldn't have bothered to send them off to the bedding.

Ted--killing me with these book spoilers. I know you put spoiler tags around it, but stop w/ that shit. Start your own GoT thread for book-readers. We don't want, nor care, to hear about what happens in the book.

My co-worker said he looked up online and they said he didn't kill the son-in-law. Even though he has Stark ties, he's on the Frey's side.

Don't know if true or not, just what he said.

I'm not really spoiling anything. It just makes sense that the Geoffrey and Margery wedding is coming and that Daenerys is still far away to do anything in one more episode this season.

It's Joffrey.

Joffrey.

The way I figure, Frey wouldn't have thought twice about killing him right then and there, married to his daughter or not. So I assume by sending them out he was sparing him.

On the other hand, seeing how unenthusiastic she was about the whole thing (which seems normal, actually) she could have been in on the whole scheme. You tend to think Frey might not waste his only pretty daughter on a relative nobody.

So I guess I have no idea. We didn't see it, so he probably lived.

Edmure is Lord of Riverrun. He's not a nobody.

I'll be nice to Ted. I like Ted.

Just don't like when people talk about what's about to happen based off what happens in the books. Just completely ruins it for non-book readers. Like I said, I actually think it'd be a good idea to start a book-readers thread and they can talk about it relative to the book there. But talking about it on here just ruins it for certain people.

"I'm guessing that's how they end the season."

GRRM and HBO has more or less confirmed that isn't the case as some of the notable attendees for the Joffrey/Margaery wedding are being cast for next season. I expect the wedding to be in no earlier than the second episode of next season.

Since GRRM is confirming it that shouldn't be a spoiler.

I'm careful what I post. I haven't ruined anything. There is a slight problem with reading the books-I have been waiting on edge for this moment (Robb's death) to happen all season. Now I can finally talk about it!

It was interesting that Robb's wife was killed in the show. She never went to the Twins in the book. She stayed in Riverrun. She wasn't even pregnant. I guess it was a way for GRRM to wrap up her storyline. You never really hear about her anymore in the book after the Red Wedding.

So I really don't want to wait another year to pick-up the story lines. But I'm torn with reading 4000+ pages, even if I try to pick-up the story somewhere in between. Plus, from the sound of things, reading the books will only leave me with other hangers while we wait for fat ass to finish his job.
