in Westeros. (SPOILER ALERT!). "The season finale of Game of Thrones aired on Father's Day, and you know what happens in Westeros on Father's Day! The same thing that happens every other day: Someone dies. This time, however, several of them happen to be fathers (or at least surrogate fathers). Cersei celebrates Father's Day by giving Tywin the greatest gift of all: the knowledge that his children are having sex with each other. Tyrion goes one very large step further and actually murders his father–along with Shae–for betraying him, while Arya betrays the Hound–the closest thing she's had to a father since Ned died–by refusing to kill him. Daenerys might be the mother of dragons rather than the father, but she's still got parental problems, and betrays her own "children," locking her dragons away in order to spare the children of others. The Stark girls are the most triumphant note of this season, two perpetual pawns who finally emerge from the shadow of their father's death and start to live on their own terms. At one point Stannis asks Jon, what would Ned do? I don't know if Arya and Sansa still ask themselves that question, because their choices look very different indeed from the choices their father would have made. And thank goodness for that: acting like Ned Stark has a way of putting people in graves. In the long run, not being their father might just be the only thing that keeps them alive

I just wish Tywin would just make up his mind whether Tyrion or Jaime or really his sons. Here's one conspiracy saying that Tyrion is really the son of the Mad King: link And another that Jaime and Cersei are Targs: link Which would make the Kingslayer a Kinslayer too! No wonder they have issues. Happy Father's Day Tywin! |

Many thanks for the info John!. Have you enjoyed Brienne combat? Arya action (inaction) suprice me as Sansa performance with Littlefinger. Good!. I would support Stannis as the new King. He shows better than the others canditates (smile). Amicalement ARmand |

I agree, I have less objection to Stannis running the show than pretty much any of the rest of them. |

Who but Stannis actually has come to the aid of the Realm ? More to the point who would feel it his duty? |

"Have you enjoyed Brienne combat?" Brienne and The Hound throwing down was the best fight scene of the show so far! |

SPOILER (Or bat crazy theory) . . . . . . . . . . . After Mel resurrects Jon, he will plunge Lightbringer (Longclaw?) into her breast as Nissa Nissa. Or not. |
