Great spoiler conversation we're having! I won't use the spoiler function here, since that storyline in the book is obviously defunct: Nasty Bastard Bolton (can't remember his name) thinks he is going to marry Arya Stark (in the book). Arya is brought to him, and he doesn't know any better, but we know that she is just some poor girl who has been cast as Arya. (Right? )

I thought the TV episode takes place at the Bolton estate, Moat Cailin (or something), which they're rebuilding. Sansa and Littlefinger view it from high above the castle, and then I thought they entered. I could be wrong, but in that case I didn't recognize Winterfell, either.

So far I prefer "Tyrion in a box" to the book plot which also seems to be scrapped,
Spoiler
Tyrion joining a troop of circus dwarves. I mean, how silly can it get?


But regardless of the plot, I'm just amazed at all the new "locations." Seamless real-life footage and CGI! I love to travel with our GoT buds into new territory!

It's dark because the Boltons run the show there now and not the Starks.

agree - Tyrion and Penny was a bit silly, but the best part of Tyrion in a box plot is that they cut out what was a much too long journey. (If Martin condensed the best parts of books 4 and 5 into one book it would have been awesome instead of interminable at times.)

I think the Boltons know Arya is fake in the book?

Can't remember. I think it'll have to be some years before I'm ready to read it again...

Anyway, Nasty Bastard's name is Ramsey, of course. And according to our infallible source of info, If Game of Thrones Took Place on Facebook, they really were at Winterfell. 3rd episode spoof has been posted:

If Game of Thrones took place entirely on Facebook

Well as I pointed out above a couple days ago, Reek's (Theon's) notice of Sansa will result in him helping her in someway and perhaps they both escape.......

I think you're right. After all, they grew up together.
