    Yeah - it's a soap opera. They sacrifice logic and credibility for drama's sake.

    Robb? let the spy go after counting 20,000 troops. they then marched to Tyrion but with only 2,000 to make them think the front was coming to them. They then surprised Jaime at Riverrun with the other 18,000 and somehow made short work of taking him captive.

    Probably more to it, but that's what I got after the first watch. Going back through the episodes now to refresh and catch things that I didn't pick up on the first time.

    LOL. The show has people coming back to life, the speaking of dragons, giants, and blood magic and you want to talk about logic and credibility.

    They kept throwing people at him until he got overwhelmed? They mentioned that he killed 10 of their troops.

    Yeah, but he would have been protected by his own army.

    That's why Robb sent 18000 men.

    Is it wrong to root for the Lannister brothers? They kick ass in every scene. The Starks are just tragic and whine at every turn. I feel sorry for them. While the Lannister Bros are just too fun. Despite capture, Jaime keeps his awesome smirk up.

    I think Jaime is the type to be on the front lines rather than bringing up the rear behind the rest of his army.

    Dinklage has been absolutely amazing so far. He captures the exact type of personality that Martin wrote in the book. His character is the best in the book as well as the best in the show.

    As far as capturing Jaime Lannister, he was surprised, at night, while surrounding Riverrun and captured. It was not a "fair" fight. He was totally caught off guard.

    Unfortunately, yes.

    The good news is it will be back next spring for season 2. If you can't take that you can always do what i'm doing...read "A Clash of Kings".

    Page 325....pretty good so far. (Tyrion is a sneaky/smart bastage.)
