What I'm wondering is if the wights are vulnerable to fire and now one is a dragon, is he vulnerable to it as well or just that much more impervious? You know, being a dragon and all.

I also really liked watching Littlefinger realizing that he wasn't getting out of this one. Just that look on his face of "Oh, boy.. I'm screwed."

So, wait, the whole time (after Jon's birth and Lyanna's death and up until Robert's death) that Robert and Ned had both friendly and professional relationships, Ned knew she wasn't kidnapped and of course knew who Jon really was and just kept that all from his BFF who was also the King, to, what, protect his sister's honor and Jon?

Ned knew that Jon, being in the Targaryen line of succession, would be killed by Robert if he knew the truth.

When is Cersei's hair gonna grow back?

Not that that seems outlandish, just making sure, as I've not read the books, and heretofore didn't know most of those details or hadn't remembered what details were revealed on TV.

That is about the size of it.

The actor who plays Bran:

It’s clear after Sansa turns the tables on Littlefinger that she has had some sort of conversation with Bran, but we don’t get to see it. When did it take place?

We actually did a scene that clearly got cut, a short scene with Sansa where she knocks on Bran’s door and says, “I need your help,” or something along those lines. So basically, as far as I know, the story was that it suddenly occurred to Sansa that she had a huge CCTV department at her discretion and it might be a good idea to check with him first before she guts her own sister. So she goes to Bran, and Bran tells her everything she needs to know, and she’s like, “Oh, s—.”

Someone's magic gone bad?

He was one of the First Men. Some 12,000 years prior the current-day GoT, the Children of the Forest captured him and transformed him into the NK in order to use him as a weapon against the First Men, but yeah, it was magic gone bad.

Good question.
My guess would be at least somewhat resistant, since he apparently breathes some form of fire, and was built for fire. Also, the White Walkers seem fireproof or fire resistant, and he might be on their level. Recall the giant bear that Thoros set aflame - fire didn't slow him down one bit. Dragonglass was required.

Seems to me it will stay butch. The writers want her to project as hard and aggressive an image as reasonable now, and the hair and new wardrobe help with that. She has no use for femininity and sex appeal now.

Ha! Great answers. Thanks!

On a side note, just read an article about why Bronn and Cersei are never in a scene together.

They used to date in real life and had a rough break up. They're contracts forbid them to be on set at the same time.

All of their new outfits/uniforms/armor *are* pretty cool. Like proto-Magpul/techie.

Ned always had that reputation of being a man of his word to a fault, and he promised Lyanna he would keep that secret.

In season one, just before Ned is executed (as the sword is falling), he can be seen saying something under his breath. Could be that he was saying a prayer, but a popular fan theory is that he was saying "I kept my promise", referring to that now with his death, no one would ever know Jon's heritage, and he would be safe, and he had kept his promise to Lyanna.

...now of course the Three-eyed Raven has shot that all to hell.

I like most of them. Cersei looks mean as hell, but in control. Dany looks cool, but sexy. The Starks all look better than ever. The Queen's Guard armor is great, as is Jamie's. Only thing I don't like is seeing The Hound not wearing plate.

I think you might have read it slightly off...this was news back in 2014.

It isn't that their contracts "forbid" them from being on the same set at the same time. It is that they will not be required to be on the same set at the same time

I think I read that she's actually super sweet / friendly and he's kind of jerky to her, and with her sway as a more established and top billed actor she preferred some "space", or something like that. It's been a while.

In the first season we saw wights wear faces they had skinned off their victims. Could that be a legacy of the faceless men?

"Hey bro, like, my sister actually ditched you. She ran off with blondie, and when she died, she probably hated your guts on account of you having killed her husband last month.

PS, she died having his kid. At least you got the Iron Throne out of it though...but...uh...my nephew's the rightful heir to it, so how ya feel about holding onto it until he comes of age?" (I'm forgetting the title Robert granted Ned on his deathbed, to rule until Geoffrey came of age).

Yeah, that would have been a fun conversation...or Tywin Lannister would have set about exterminating any challenges to Robert's rule, given that he'd just wed off his daughter to him. At the least Tywin (possibly with Robert's knowledge and even consent) ordered the slaughter of every Targaryen he could get his hands on, including Rhaegar's wife (remember how pissed off the Viper of Dorne was...yeah) and Rhaegar's children.

I was really disappointed how sickly and weak rhaegar looked. Anyone else?

I was underwhelmed, too, but they intentionally chose an actor who looked a whole bunch like the actor who played Viserys, Rhaegar's brother. I can see the reasoning behind it, what with the inbreeding and all it seems they'd look alot alike. I actually thought it was the same actor, and had to check online to make sure that V & R weren't supposed to be twins.

Or she hooks up with the Night King.....who says, "damn, this chick is more cold blooded than me."


As for Sam and Bran telling Jon......I can see it this way:

Sam: Jon, we have important news about you.
Bran: Yeah you are......oh, I see you have hooked up with your au..............I mean your queen.
Jon(as he is holding Danys hand): so whats the news?
Bran and Sam: Ahhh, never mind.
