    The bread and salt thing - they shared bread and salt with Walder Frey, thus invoking "guest rights". This means that guests are safe during their stay and under Frey protection. In the books - because of this solemn tradition, the Starks removed their arms, It was inconceivable to anyone that the Freys would carry out this atrocity. What happened was not just a massacre, it went way deeper than that. The tradtion is still with us today in some form or fashion. When you have guests today, you always offer then something to eat or drink when they enter your home. At least this is the tradition in my country and family. When I watched the I knew exactly how horrendous it was, on multiple levels.

    You called it when Rob executed Lord Karstark. But he was right when he said “I believe you lost the war the day you married her (Talisa).” You could also argue the war was lost when Cat released Jaime, as that was the real beginning of the turmoil in Robb’s camp.

    • @lemonicetea2642
      @lemonicetea2642 2 роки тому +7

      Robb needed to execute Lord Karstark though, he openly belittled, disrespected and disobeyed Robb, he needed to die. If Robb hadn't executed him his sworn swords and bannermen would've viewed him as weak and most likely would've plotted to over throw him, it also would've opened the door to others thinking it was alright to walk all over him and disobey his orders. Killing Karstark had made major issues but keeping him alive also did too.

    • @simeonteitelbaum6219
      @simeonteitelbaum6219 2 роки тому +15

      Thats my opinion too.

Its interesting if you at it everything Catelyn Stark did ended up blowing up in her face

    The 3 major mistakes of the Starks in this war:
    1. freeing Jaime
    2. Not marrying Walder freys daughter
    3. Killing lord Karstark
    Any one of those things doesn’t happen and Robb maybe wins. Honorable mention to trusting Theon because it was the Greyjoy’s invading the north that allowed Tywin to focus on Stannis. The quote from Tyrion in season 2 “our enemies hate each other almost as much as they hate us” is really what saved the lannisters. If they could’ve just focused on beating the lannisters rather than fighting each other there would’ve been no contest

  • @alexanderr.9336
    @alexanderr.9336 2 роки тому +36

    I'm gonna say this cause i know you like to know some curiosities that happens only in the book. And also cause i think its cool.
    When Catlyn made that arrangement with the Freys in the books, a part from Robb marrying with one of Walder's daughters, there was also two boys that was sent to Winterfell to be raised as squires as part of the arrangement, and one of them was to marry Arya. In Bran chapters, he mentions a child game those boys played called "Lord of the Crossing" which is basically a game of betrayal. The players goal is to cross the river (can be just a puddle) and the "Lord" has to make them swear oaths and answer questions. But, if the players find a way to include the word "mayhaps" in their sentences without the "Lord" notice, you can throw the Lord in the water and be the next Lord.
    When Robb is trying to forge an aliance again with the Freys by marrying Edmure, Walder says to him:
    "I need to see my men across the river, my lord," Robb said.
    "They shan't get lost," Lord Walder complained. "They've crossed before, haven't they? When you came down from the north. You wanted crossing and I gave it to you, and you never said 𝐦𝐚𝐲𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐬, heh. But suit yourself. Lead each man across by the hand if you like, it's naught to me."
    "My lord!" Catelyn had almost forgotten. "Some food would be most welcome. We have ridden many leagues in the rain."
    Walder Frey's mouth moved in and out. "Food, heh. A loaf of bread, a bite of cheese, 𝐦𝐚𝐲𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐬 a sausage."
    He says "mayhaps" twice, first to Robb and second to Catlyn, already showing his intention to betray the Starks and the Tullys.

    In the show you first hear the full song when Bronn and the Lannister soldiers are singing it right before Blackwater. At the end of that episode you hear the marching tune of that song as Tywin makes his legendary entrance in the throne room.Then a whole season later Cersei tells Maergery about the story of House Reyne. The foreshadowing is there in bits and pieces. But everytime so much else is going on it is designed to make those little bits of info feel trivial. Everyone always focus on Joffrey doing something terrible at the Sansa Tyrion wedding, but that one ends up being a red herring. This is the one. "And now the rains weep o'er his hall, with not a soul to hear". System of a Down's Serj Tankian has a live orchestral performance of Rains of Castamere that you can find on youtube. It's so good. It's one of my favorite piece of music from the GoT verse.

    18:42 Among skin-changers north of the Wall, it is considered an abomination to take over someone else's mind.
    Moreover, it is a very difficult act to do so. In the books, a powerful skin changer "Varamyr Sixskins" tries to do this and it almost kills him.
    Varamyr is considered the most powerful warg among the wildlings and he fails to do so.
    Bran, however, who has no real control over his abilities yet, manages to do so, which shows that Bran has so much more powerful potential than any other skin changer out there and he is more than just a warg.
    In the books, by the way, all Stark children have warg abilities.
    We read in the chapters of Jon and Arya when they dream at night that they then take over their direwolves. Arya even manages to do this from miles away. Unlike Bran, however, this happens unconsciously and uncontrolled.
    Robb and Rickon have the abilities as well, even though we don't read about them.
    Sansa probably has these abilities too, only they were never unleashed because her direwolf died so young.
    The difference with Bran is that he's also a greenseer.

    I always think just how dumb it would've been for Robb to survive this. Yet it gives you that one little unreasonable flicker of hope during the last scene. It's partly due to my own subconscious expectation of the protagonist McGuyvering his way out of the trickiest situation, and partly due to the sheer conviction in Cat's voice. Her high pitched acting in that scene is more reminiscent of a Shakespeare Broadway play than normal TV acting, but it works, probably cause the whole scene feels like a fever dream. But there's that one millisecond when Cat screams "LET HIM GO" and I unreasonably think it might actually happen. It's the conviction in her voice I guess. And then of course, it doesn't. It's similar to when Arya sees Greywind and everyone automatically goes "oh she's gonna free him". But it's GoT. The dog dies too lol.

That was what they were eating at the beginning of this episode.

    The Rains of Castamere is a song about Tywin's victory over one of his father's vassals that was in rebellion. You see, Tywin's father was somewhat of a pushover and one of his bannerman, Lord Reyne (pronounced rain) of Castamere, decided that he didn't need to be a vassal of Casterly Rock anymore, well Tywin raised up his father's armies, marched on Castamere and wiped out every last one of the Reynes. This was sometimes called the war of lions because both house Lannister and house Reyne had lions as their sigil Lannister gold and Reyne red.
    ' "And who are you," the proud lord said "that I must bow so low? Only a cat of a different coat, that's all the truth I know. A coat of gold or a coat of red; a lion still has claws. Mine are long and sharp, my lord, as long and sharp as yours" And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere and now the rains weep o'er his halls and not a soul to hear.'

They were wiping out what the Lannisters thought were the last of the Starks with the exception of Sansa (they figure Arya dead, they heard Theon killed both Bran and Rickon even tho Theon didn’t, and Ned was gone already) so they thought they could pull another Castamere moment.

    The rains of castamere is noy any kind of official war song for the lanisters. It was written after a rebelling house called House Reyne with their seat of castamere challenged tywin. "And now the rains weep o' their halls and not a soul to hear." So not really a war song but a song about a massacre, which he just did to house stark here.

    Arya's a big beast in a tiny package.
    Did you detect the hurt in Jorah's eyes when Daenerys showed her concern for Dario? Jorah's caught feelings for Daenerys.
    The Red Wedding! That's some hard sh*t right there! George R.R. Martin don't pull no punches...no plot armor in George's storytelling. I feel your pain, bro. I think this was one of the hardest hitting scenes I've ever watched. It's impossible *not* to feel it deeply. But you've got some great instincts...they were right. About his marriage to Talisa coming back to haunt him. About not trusting Lord Bolten, but that is ginda a given. Yeah, this was a hard hit to come back for, bro. But I'm not gonna BS you, season four is the *BEST* season, hands down. So hang in there, man.
