Oh my freakin' God! The great reveal of who killed Jon Arryn at last. In my mind that mysery was all solved and a thing of the past. Brillian GRRM, brilliant!

Happy to see Lysa go!

Two revelations.. Jon Arryn's death, that was a nice surprise and the Tansy thing that Lord Hoster kept telling on his death bed! I remember someone putting a spoiler in Cat's chapter, well they reveal pretty subtle-ly about Tansy!

But why would Petyr want to kill Jon Arryn? Just to get Ned Stark to be the Hand?

That's a very interesting question indeed!

Also, that thing about the maid with venomous purple dragons in her hair slaying a giant in a castle of snow - that was it. It was Sansa ripping Robert's doll.

That potion is probably the reason why Lysa was never able to carry a healthy child. I'm glad to see it wasn't Cat who gave Petyr her maidenhead. That guy has severe mental problems, I think. He is brilliant, undubtedly, but completely mad.

Robert? You mean Robin Arryn?

The snow castle she built while playing with him, right?

Yeah, his name is Robert Arryn, though they changed it in the TV show to avoid confusion - just like they changed Asha Greyjoy's name, so she wouldn't be confused with Osha the wildling.

Robert..."

Ohh they changed it for this reason!

But I like the name Yara Greyjoy more than Asha :)

Well, perhaps it is a better name, but I'm too used to Asha, I doubt I could think of her in any other way.

Ugh Littlefinger is kind of creepy.
Is it really a shaking disease or just temper tantrums?
Littlefinger seriously has his finger in every (almost) important death!
