The scene with the trree Stark brothers warmed my heart (I wish Arya had been there too)
“Jon Snow. When my husband brought that baby home from the war, I couldn’t bear to look at him, didn’t want to see those brown stranger’s eyes staring at me. So I prayed to the gods ‘Take him away, make him die’. He got the pox and I knew I was the worst woman who ever lived. A murderer. I’d condemned this poor, innocent child to a horrible death all because I was jealous of his mother, a woman he didn’t even know! So I prayed to all Seven Gods ‘Let the boy live. Let him live and I’ll love him. I’ll be a mother to him. I’ll beg my husband to give him a true name, to call him Stark and be done with it, to make him one of us’. And he lived. And I couldn’t keep my promise. And everything that’s happened since then, all this horror that’s come to my family... it’s all because I couldn’t love a motherless child.”
What's with all the fat-shaming in this episode? Also, the bridge fight was awful. It looked more like a rehearsal than a proper sword fight.
The writers really enjoyed writing the Lannister's lines in this one.
Jaime Lannister: "Let us go and my father will pay you whatever you want."
Locke: "Enough to buy me a new head? If the King in the North hears I had the Kingslayer and let him go, he'll be taking it right off. I'd rather he takes yours."
Very interesting episode, lot of iconic scenes such as Sansa's conversation with Lady Olenna. I like the sequences with Bran and his group, these are the elements in the show which are like traditional heroic fantasy, more magic and mysticism. Of course, Arya always steals the scene and Brienne is one of my favourite characters, so it is good that there was so much of her in the episode. I wish the torture sequences were cut, though.

I really like this episode. Easily the best of season 3 thus far.
