Don't forget that she believed Bran and Rickard to both be dead at the hands of Theon Greyjoy. So in her mind, her husband and all 3 sons are dead and her two daughters are in the custody of the family who had a hand in two of those deaths. Oh, by the way, remind to never name my kid Eddard. One got beheaded and the other got stabbed while still in the womb. That's an unlucky name.
I knew that scene was coming and watched it on mute. I do the same thing when Rockets games are down to the wire.
I have to hand it to Michelle Fairly. She absolutely NAILED that performance. I can't imagine what it must have took to prepare to film that moment for her. Certainly, she redeemed any thought she was not properly cast.
What's crazy is the only chick worth betraying your oaths for thus far is Ygritte and Jon chose the Crows over her. Come on man you crazy!
EW recap, hilarious as always http://tvrecaps.ew.com/recap/game-of-thrones-recap-red-wedding-castamere/
Book reader here read them all and such, and that was tougher on screen than in the book mainly because one could make an argument that the Frey girl looked better than Talisa. So it was like "Man...Talisa wasn't even that much of a step up brah, if at all." heh.
The Starks suck at this game,man. Martin killing everybody! How many where-do-they-go-from-here-? moments are there in this damn series?!?!
This is a common criticism of Martin's story and his view of humanity in general. Eventually you wonder what's the meaning beyond people trying to kill and steal from each other.
I guess I saw it coming since in the last episode before this one (or was it 2 episodes ago?) they had Melisandre list the 3 ppl she wanted killed and Robb was one of them. I figured it was only a matter of time and was hoping things would turn out differently, but.... damn. Who else did Melisandre want dead?
