He's now a King, with an impenetrable fortress and an army. Another stepping stone. And Sansa will almost certainly factor in one way or another to gaining alliance with the North, possibly also somewhere else if he marries her off (although it seems like, ultimately, he'd like Sansa to be HIS queen).Automatik;1613202 wrote:I'm wondering what his motive is for marrying that wacko Lysa. He's obviously not really into it....but why?
Add to the above that Little Finger knows the Lannisters are flat busted. So he's got plans in the works for up to 4(?) of the 5 kingdoms?
I don't know, succession is so confusing, if almost completely unexplained, in the tv series. I assume Lysa is ruling until her son comes of age. No idea what that means for a guy she marries, or what happens if she and her son "accidentally" die (you just know that little Joffrey-wannabe is going to "fly" at some point).

He always has a plan. He isn't king, nor will he be if/when Lysa dies. Tommen is the king of the 7 kingdoms.gut;1613185 wrote:REAL interesting, like no one is going to see him coming until it's too late.
Although he's gotta put up with crazy auntie - he doesn't get to stay king if she has a "tragic" accident, does he? I always thought there was something off about him because it seemed like he never touched the whores.

I guess I meant to say he's now Lord of the Vale, with potential to build at least 2 more alliances, and can probably get the Iron Bank to enter "default judgement" against the Lannisters.TedSheckler;1613213 wrote:He always has a plan.

Something tells me line of succession isn't entirely set in stone and Little Finger could, theoretically, seize the throne. At least until Khaleesi comes and kicks all ass with her dragons.

I don't think any of it is gonna matter once (if?) the White Walkers arrive anyhow.

Well, if I had to have anything to battle White Walkers with, it would be dragons!gorocks99;1613234 wrote:I don't think any of it is gonna matter once (if?) the White Walkers arrive anyhow.
Although, killing your enemy and then re-animating them to join your army is really fucking advantageous.

I don't give a fuck...shut the fuck up with the spoilers.

Also, STOP TEASING THE DRAGONS! Either have them annihilate some cities or stfu.

Last 2 weeks, we've been watching live, while all of the other eps. we binge watched. It's funny... when you binge watch, the shows seem to take forever, b/c all you care about is getting through the episode to get to the next one. My wife and I have both noticed that since we're watching live, these shows are over with in a flash, leaving us pissed off that we have to wait until the next week!

Also, danaerys and her army aren't ready yet.
Were probably not going to see anything happen until another season or two.

This season follows book 4, correct? So there are at least 2 more seasons after this?

I highly doubt that's true though. The books are too long.
