I saw the post I think that spoiled you and PMed a mod to fix it. It sucks that happened to you.
I'm thinking behind enemy lines in Renly's camp. I think it goes back to her threat about the worst comes at night in the shadows or something like that. Can't remember it 100% but it was her usual talk about her god but came off as a warning.
The only other thing I could think of is that he didn't want people there to know about his mistress and trying to get an heir but that's my second guess.
People who haven't read the books should be careful in there but the post I saw should've been tagged like all the other times that same spoiler was tagged in other posts.
He is Joffrey's executioner yo.
EDIT: Beaten like a baby back bitch..... or rather the hooker Tyrion sent to Joffrey, HI OHHHHHH
IT'S SOME SORT OF BEING, MAN! SAW THOSE LEGS AND SHIT ANIMATING.
Oh man, typing in caps is annoying.
Renly's camp? Ohhhhhh.
Okay, so this is some evil creature that'll kill Renly or something?

All I could think of was Uncharted 3. That place is well hidden.
"There's no cure for being a cunt," is the line of the decade.
What Melisandre did at the end there is a gamechanger like the dragons for me. The poison trick was really interesting. Birthing a shadowy wraith-like character is pre-midseason snake in the mailbox.
I will jump for joy if and when Joffrey gets his comeuppance.

Great holy shit that was awesome!
Everyone was really on the mark this episode, so much great stuff to talk about.
Just give Peter Dinklage another emmy, maybe two lol. He's just killing he role this season.
I really wasn't sure how they would handle the ending of this episode...turns out they did it perfect.

And what was Arya doing? Praying or reciting the names of the Lannisters and the hound because she wanted them dead?
Doing the kind of "praying" that Yoren talked about in the previous episode.
Yes, it's how Yoren taught her to fall asleep in the previous episode

Did they recast The Mountain this season? Didn't get a good look at him but his face seemed different.
yes. the guy who played him last season got cast in the Hobbit
yes. His entire demeanor is different, in addition to his face
What happened to the forces that were supposed to kill him in Season 1?

They're looking for "The Brotherhood."
Rather, they're torturing people for information on "The Brotherhood."
Ser Gregor Clegane doesn't look for things
im pretty sure they got owned, it was a trap

Just watched the ending of ep 3 again. Thank you to the both of you and HBOGo.
Yeah, it's probably a good idea to avoid that thread if you don't want to be spoiled. Accidents happen.

Yep. New guy, same height, slimmer, but also less armored which contributes to looking a bit smaller. Gregor never talked last season, right? Could have been an acting decision. HBO portrayed it as a timing thing, but according to the original actor it was more HBO cutting ties with him, to which he proclaimed innocence of any reason why.
Probably for the best. Even things discussing the show will often have spoilers within the same post. Generally pretty good about marking, but the occasional mistake by a good poster, or the occasional asshole who doesn't read the rules make it dangerous.
Basically, night episode airs it is 90%- like the episode, can't wait to see this plot point coming up. Then the rest of the week is book speculation, or arguments about sexposition.
Once they make Cornballer the Mod in the North it might be a safer place.
I'm not sure what this has to do with my post you quoted? I was referring to the fact that in Season 1, Ned, acting as King, ordered The Mountain's execution. I don't remember ever hearing what the outcome of that was, except that obviously The Mountain is still alive. Later in Season 1, Tywin sends him to burn the Riverlands

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
Awesome episode! Can someone explain what the whole Brotherhood thing was about? As far as I recall they were being pursued by knights from King's Landing about finding Robert's bastard and next thing I know they're in some prison town and being asked about the Brotherhood.
Also, have they even mentioned Melisandre's name at all? I don't think they have.

I'm pretty sure they have, but I might be mixing that up with some HBO GO sidebar stuff. Anyways, I thought it was pretty funny that in this episode Stannis scolds Davos for not using her name, and then in the next sentence he also calls her the Red Woman
Ned sent Ser Beric Dondarrion on a mission to bring Gregor to justice.
Since then, we haven't heard from Beric. We have heard from Gregor. Make of that what you will.

I'm sure they discussed their differences over tea and became great friends. Dondarrion is out buying them tickets for the Ice Capades.
See, The Mountain has a brother, The Hound. Since they both have Thes, they are collectively the The Brotherhood.
I thought it was pretty clear.
He did speak : "BRING ME MY SWORD!" to cut his horse in half and then to try to do the same to Loras

Fantastic episode. Love this thread.
Have we heard from Gregor? All I remember is him from Season 1 cutting his horse and half and now, the Lannister's men asking about "The Brotherhood" on Harrenhal (I think). I don't remember seeing him anywhere else. What did I miss?
Also, was the place the Prisoners were being hold Harrenhal? Because if not, I don't know where Harrenhal showed up.
From what I gathered from Arya and the other prisoners, the city was burned by dragons and they were in a village nearby, but the lannister's men were torturing the village, looking for "The Brotherhood" (and Silver and Gold), aka, The Mountain.
Is that right?
Edit: However, if they're looking for The Mountain (Gregor), and collectivelly they're "The Brotherhood" (as Cyan said), why are they looking for "The Brotherhood"? The Hound is in king's landing...

Ah, forgot this. Still, it is possible they recast for acting reasons. Which wouldn't make sense, because Gregor doesn't need to act. I imagine the original actor pissed of the wrong person somehow. I can't imagine he was more expensive. He was a nobody before the show, and although he is getting roles now, I doubt he commands big money.
Drizzle,
Gregor was in the most recent episode. The really tall guy who picks prisoners. Recast. he was wearing the same/similar armor to season 1, but he was wearing a Lannister helmet rather than the bucket from season 1.
Prisoners being held in Harrenhall. Torturers are Gregor's mean. Gregor is looking for the Brotherhood. The show has not revealed what the Brotherhood is.
Cyan definitely nailed it, though. He is perceptive.

He got a part on the Hobbit and therefore didn't have time to do Game of Thrones.
The end.
So the brotherhood is the brothers? Why would they ask about the brothers if they already know about them.....
Yes, that's what threw me into a loop and also made me lose track of some things.
AFAIK, we were not told what The Brotherhood is by the TV Show.

That was the initial speculation. He posted on his website a couple of weeks ago that it wasn't true, that they never contacted him to get back. Could have been a miscommunication, could be they wouldn't work with his schedule and it was bitter tears.
edit: added quote. Doesn't say never contacted, says different direction. So my information was somewhat inaccurate. But basically HBO didn't want him for some unspecified reason.
Conan Stevens said:
I'm sorry. The last part was a joke. Viewers have not been given any information on who the Brotherhood is yet.

Seriously? I hadn't heard that. Interesting.
We have no idea what the brotherhood is. Gregor is the Mountain. He was there at Harrenhold and the other brother is the Hound. Nobody is looking for them, they're just joking about their names. The Mountain, The Hound, obviously they are the The Brotherhood
This brings up something I am confused about despite reading the books.
What is the ruling on succession for bastard born children? Up until now I had assumed that it was first to legitimate sons, then to legitimate daughters, then to siblings, then to uncles and aunts. Wasn't the point of getting rid of the bastard children of Robert just to remove suspicion about Joffrey not being Robert's son?
