Reply With QuoteLet it go, berz.
The dude wasn't leaving for a night, he was goin to help his bro fight the king (treason & desertion?) - and he gets a pass while the poor schmuck who was "sentenced" to serve at the wall for "poaching" some Lord's animal lost his head literally because he ran away from the bogeymen in pure shock. I dont think its a coincidence the author dealt Ned a similar fate, but I haven't read the books and thats where the nuance is to be found...
Let it go, berz.

I'm in favor of both liberties taken with the text. No one wants to see a bald girl with a tiny dragon sucking on her nipples.
If there aren't already websites for this sort of thing perhaps you've identified a gap in the market for people with your tastes.I'm sure the hair would grow back and it would have been cool for dramatic effect. As for the dragons suckling on her breasts, that would have been kinky too!

I'll pass on that, though.
I think berz is basically right, but they would've beheaded Jon if he hadn't come back the same night he left.

I saw the making-of featurette for this show at a restaurant a few days ago. I can't say it looked all that interesting to me, honestly, but I suppose that those segments are always vapid, egotistical auto-fellatio, so who knows?

I was delighted to see Vagina Woman cropping up for another utterly gratuitous flash in the finale. I wonder if she thinks she was hired for her acting?
In other news, I've just been tipped off that Dwarfie's mistress is a hardcore porn star, if anyone's interested.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
The story about the dwarf's girl is:
1. Woman did porn. Said porn films didn't get that much, erm, exposure.
2. Woman got "discovered" and did mainstream acting without anyone involved knowing that she did porn before.
3. Someone discovered that the girl who did the mainstream acting did porn before she made it big.
4. Sales of the old porn vids skyrocketed.
Oh and the season finale hit 3 million for its first US broadcast for the first time. Looks like we'll have a third season at this rate.

I didn't understand that scene. OK, the old guy is apparently more vigorous than he
wants to be known. But surely the whores notice? Or does he perhaps only get a
blowjob? I'm confused because he is "old" while he is talking to her... this supposedly
being right after having sex, during which she'd notice he's not that frail... or does
she simply not care?
Presumably since he hid it afterward he would have done his best to hide it before. He knows that she's on Littlefinger's payroll, so he's just keeping up the pretense.

Too bad he didn't play the bass part with a pick though.
I am only at episode 8 and haven't seen the show when he "leaves" but the book is incredibly clear (I finished book 1 last night). The higher ups completely expected Jon to run on hearing the news of his fathers death and in fact he was observed leaving. The commander gives Jon a speech that essentially has the message " do you think I am new at this?? I expected you would leave and I expected you would return as a matter of honor". When Jon protested he intended to continue, the commander said " I didn't say who's honor" (indicateing he expected the other young men to fetch him). Bottom line is that they are not looking to behead useful people on a whim but if Jon had continued, the ravens would have been sent and there would have been people looking for him and waiting for him-- with fatal consequences
There is also the line that someone quoted that if they beheaded every young man that went to Mole Town, only ghosts would man the walls. It is a brotherhood after all so any chastity elements of the oath seem to be ignored.
The redheaded whore who moves from Winterfell to Kings landing gets larger play in the tv show as I don't even recall her much in the book-- I can only think she has a larger role later-- or perhaps she is just there to provide the boob shots that are required in each and every episode. Its easy, after all, to fit in some necessary conversation as having happened at a whorehouse.
I thoroughly enjoyed book 1-- hope to finish the TV series tonight-- I am already 10 pages into book two
