I think Danerys is Jon’s aunt not sister.

Hi, did anyone else see the preview for next week’s episode? If so, did I just see Nymeria with Arya at the very end of the clip?

Jon and Danerys do meet and each considers the other a good match, only to find out at an inoportune time that they are half brother and sister.

I think that Danerys is Jon's Aunt.

I believe his parents are Lyanna Stark and Raegar Targarian. Danny is the daughter of the mad King Aerys, sister of Raegar.

Tyrion who always had the greatest dialogue has been reduced to saying nothing too interesting.

I think your wife may be correct in this. I never really thought about it; but, he did always have a quick quip for almost anything. And, it was usually funny and insightful.

Are the books different than the HBO Series? I recall in the first season when Ned Starks wife, Catelyn Stark describes her heartache over him going off to war and bringing”another woman’s” child home to raise.

Or am I mistaken?

I am not disputing the parents of Jon Snow but merely that part recalled from early Season 1. She doesn’t like Snow.

I am told the books and the series have diverged.

“....Catelyn Stark describes her heartache over him going off to war and bringing” another woman’s” child home to raise. ...”

This particular chicken has come home to roost in a good way!
Meaning Jon Snow is a Stark-Targarian.

” the only plot device capable of removing Dani’s OP advantage”

Also if a dragon gets killed beyond the wall it could be resurrected into the dead.

Then again Tyrion didn’t say anything smart already in the Dance of Dragons book.

Ned lied to his wife. Jon was his sister’s and Targaryen princes son, but if anyone had known the child would have been killed. That is why he lied that Jon is his son.

Speaking of Cersei, I forgot the FReeper who said this to me but Cersei in the guy’s opinion is like the Hillary Clinton of GOT.

In the GOT world I don’t think that will matter much.

You’re correct. You might also remember in the last GOT book Catelyn Stark is resurrected. Wonder if that’s going to be part of the story line.

What are they going to do against professional soldiers and warships armed with catapults? The Ironborn are hit and run pirates.

Cut their supply lines.

He was the singing solider in that scene with Arya. I didn’t know about it beforehand or recognize him so it meant nothing to me but lots of people hated it. Poor guy has deleted his twitter account due to negative comments.

I liked that scene with Arya and the soldiers. I assume it was meant to humanize them in her eyes and get her to question the whole mass murder thing. If not her at least to remind the audience that these soldiers are just farmboys and fisherman who happened to be born on Lannister land.

My biggest problem is Dragonstone itself, Show Stannis didn’t leave anyone there and Cersei never occupied it? She knows Dani is going there and just lets her have it. Euron sails right by it and doesn’t occupy it?
