I mean I thought him going full on berserker was kind of hokey. And when the claw thing came down and he was just on it screaming I actually guffawed out loud.

Was the hanging woman on the ship at the end the greyjoy sister or the sand snake

Whip snake and spear snake. I'm guessing it was filmed that way to point out that two sand snakes were killed but the third (dagger snake?) along with their stepmother were taken hostage (it wasn't clear that they wouldn't kill the third one).

Also the more Euron channels Victarion the better he is as far as I am concerned. They took the second best Greyjoy from the books out of the series so combining him with Euron is a good move. Corny as it may seem his jumping off the bridging ramp on to the ship was right out of Victarion's POV (vastly different battle) and it was awesome, gently caress it, I liked it.

If flat out just cutting off the greyscale and rubbing bengay on it is the cure then you would think it wouldn't be such a big deal.

And grandmaster guy said he should have cut his arm off before it got that bad, I thought they said before that doing that wouldn't work.

The book says that doesn't always work, but I think the main problem was that Jorah was in the middle of nowhere. He likely would've bled to death.

I wonder if Sam is gonna get tossed out having gone all the way to Oldtown to learn that Dragonstone has dragonglass and how to cure grayscale.

Or maybe Lt. Maester is gonna be like, "Dammit Sam, you're a loose cannon ... but you get results."

Hey boy, come here and help me gently caress your sister. You don't have a dick so you're barely even a human.

Yes, brother, feel impotent, literally, figuratively, just watch me get my poo poo all fondled up. Haha you truly suck.

Aw gently caress, what? You're cowardly leaving me to die? What? Where did this come from? You got a lot of growing up to do, mister. I can't even express how betrayed I feel in this moment. Dang.

Part of it is probably that greyscale is super infectious. Treating it by hacking at it with blades is an extreme infection risk in a society that's presumably pretty bad at sterilization.

Like my friend pointed out that all it would take is that pus to squirt in Sam's mouth or something. Hell, how's he gonna safely dispose of those clothes and tools?

he will probably appreciate sams initiative cuz he said a maesters job is to doubt or disbelieve everything

maybe even his own rear end

God drat. The behind the episode is especially hilarious because it's just D and D repeating information that was already given to us by character exposition on the show. Guess I won't bother watching any more of those.

I literally just at this post realized I'd been mixing up Euron & Victarion as the same character

it's Victarion that kicked the poo poo out of that one knight

- He was brokering an alliance so she let him do that before maybe needing to kill him

- No they were supposed to pick up the dornish army to seige KL while the unsullied marched on Castle Rock.
