Game of Assholes, Season 2! The night is dark and full of spoilers

Other than that, it there wasn't a lot to this episode. It was more set up like if the next episode was going to be big.
the pyromancer dude
foreshadowing for end of book 2 spoiler:
for real, that dude is DESTROYING that role
It is a unique phrasing.
Who was awesome. "I've never attempted that experiment."
Our work does not involve horseshit! Or some such.
And god damn, Tyrion kills EVERY SCENE he's in.
And @Fearghaill, I was wondering that same thing.
They haven't mentioned it at all...I wonder if The Battle is going to occur without it. It might be too confusing to try to show it, when really, they might not need it.
As a separate point, on re-reading book 2:
That scene was incredible. I loved this episode.
Fully agree, amazing scene.
Otherwise, mostly just a solid episode. Glad to see Dagmar made it in, Tyrion and Bronn both rocked it as usual, but then Bran was bland (Bran the Bland, I like it) and the party scene at Qarth was just weird. The Dothraki plotting how to steal the statue was hilarious, but Christ people kept popping in from the side. Just as soon as you get rid of Nosferatu, some creepy bitch in a mask pops up.
Also, regarding a scene that SHOULD be in next week's episode...
They've streamlined Stannis into being a straight up douchebag from all the stuff they've cut, it's kind of annoying since he's one of my favorite characters but eh it's the show what are you going to do.
Brienne is badass.
Oh shit what's his name really killed the torturer.
What really surprised me is that there is actual use of magic stuff in this series. None of that in season 1, except for white walkers and dragons (which I could find plausible in a non-magic universe)
Warlocks. Dude there are warlocks. He's creepy. We were all creeped out.
I liked the exploration of how hard it is for Khaleesi to maintain her image of a conqueror, especially when that guy unveils his clout in the form of tons of money.
I felt this episode had the most things "happen" so far in season 2.

Private one is Arcadian Invasion??? with the password wang.
Public one is Fyndir's FAST Game and has no password.
Anyone that wants to get some quicker moving games going come join them.
those are fun
To be fair, this is definitely the kind of world where just because you SAY you're a warlock doesn't mean you can actually do anything besides parlor tricks.
So much bad shit going on at the end, and Winds of Winter is still a while off.

There can be no iron price paid by a man who takes his house to sea.
What was happening in the beginning of the episode? I can't even remember.
Yes, that annoyed me. They're supposed to sail awesome ass longships, because they're the Westeros equivalent of freakin' Vikings.
next episode preview (book 2 spoilers)
then again, maybe they'll just drop jon from the show for three episodes

Book 2/3, following
That said, I still question some of their decisions, and those doubts aren't helped when producers on the show compare Qhorin to NFL superstars.

I wondered the same thing.
