Game of Thrones fans :)

This is undoubtedly the stand-out moment of the first three seasons, and was really the scene that established Game of Thrones as a phenomenon (instead of being merely a damn good fantasy show). Attending the wedding of Edmure Tully, Robb Stark, his mother, his wife, and unborn child are all slaughtered by the Freys, who have been promised a share of the kingdom by the Lannisters in exchange of the elimination of the Stark family. The way it all unfolds has that classic feel of ‘oh god… is this happening? IT’S HAPPENING. OH GOD’, but it’s the way this scene comes completely out of the blue that lends it most power. Unless you’d read the books you didn’t see this coming, and the fact it wipes out almost every ‘hero’ in the show in one, short segment, is as bold as it is bloody. Some of you may have wondered how, exactly, Varys ended up on that ship with Dany, Tyrion, Missendei and the rest for that final glorious shot of the season, considering we just saw him hanging out in Dorne with the Sand Snakes and Olenna Tyrell. But presumably that means that either Dany swung by Dorne or their ships met up with them somewhere in the middle. Either way, Dany has, at this point, an almost ridiculously stacked deck versus Cersei in King's Landing, which is where Daario seemed to indicate she was heading. The question now is how much of her power she will unleash and where, and whether or not this coalition can stand. Those Sand Snakes have been known to, er, go off-book. Just be thankful the Queen of Thorns (the best queen on this show, let's be real) is there to wrangle them.
