Let's talk about how Arya killed that guy.

I liked it. It was just like she did it in the book.

I read a recap that said she didn't kill him in the book - that the Hound did. I can't remember, it's been so long since I read it.

Her character is taking a dark turn, and I like it.

Yes but don't open this thread if you haven't watched the latest episode.

the hound is also quicky becoming one of the more endearing characters, which I also like.

She killed the Tickler in the book (who is now already dead in the show, killed by Jaqen) not Raff the Sweetling, who should still be alive at that point in the books.  Also, she goes all postal in the books and isn't so cool and collected as in the show.

Still, that scene was really satisfying.

The guy she killed in the latest episode is Polliver.

Yeah, I had actually completely forgotten how that scene went down in the books. That was about 3000 pages ago. It was perfect, regardless. The show does a lot of things better than the books did them.

I'm not sure which Daario I prefer. Last season's guy really didn't do much, but it seems kind of weird to just pull a switch like that with two actors who look nothing at all alike.

The original one was hotter.

I've barely started the books so I don't have much frame of reference, but I feel like Oberyn is going to do some bad ass things we all might like. . .he seems to be a cool character.

It's too bad they had to recast Daario Naharis though. . .took me a minute to realize that was supposed to be the same guy.

Love this show. I have yet to find anything negative to say about it, except that I want more.
