Originally posted by Culture Did anybody expect what happened in episode 2.
I suspected this will happen at the end of the season. WOW!
I actually thought it would be the opener episode of the season since they didn't really have material to cover until the wedding. First episode was a bit uneventful aside from Arya learning she likes to kill people.
The rest of the season should be the fallout from the wedding, Bran getting into position, Daenerys getting into position, some of the Reek/Thejon storyline and probably the relocation of a certain character which really puts that person into position to move ahead, too. That relocation might be the last episode of the season. (Although the undeath of a certain character might be the season cliffhanger instead. Or both.)
I saw they got renewed for season 5 & 6. Those can't possibly follow the books since book 5 is one set of characters and book 6 another set over the same time period. That might shake things up for those of us who've read the books!
