81827, Dammit, I've been waiting all season for The Showdown. Posted by wallysmith, Mon May-19-14 12:55 PM
And now we got to wait two weeks? a;sdfja;dfja
However, I LOVED how they brought back The Hound's story about his brother full circle. IIRC, that was one of the earliest book reader gripes about the show; how he didn't tell Sansa (it *was* Sansa, right? Either at the tourney from Loras or the "little bird" scene) about his history with The Mountain.
Cutting and pasting that dialogue from Sansa to Arya (at the point when The Mountain becomes a critical character) was a stroke of genius. Considering it came this much later than in the books shows impressive restraint.
Or, I could be completely misremembering the books and everything I just said is moot. If so, then carry on and ignore me, hah
