“We should start back” sono le primissime parole de “Le Cronache del Ghiaccio e del Fuoco” di George R.R. Martin e noi abbiamo pensato di fare esattamente così. In questo episodio assistiamo al trionfo finale dei Lannister. Vinta la Battaglia delle Acque Nere, Joffrey e la sua corte solidificano il potere del trono di spade con una nuova e potente alleanza coi Tyrell di Alto Giardino. Di fatto, Mace e tutta la sua famiglia diventano la seconda casata più potente di Westeros, con un figlio nella Guardia Reale, un seggio nel Concilio Ristretto del Re e la promessa di un matrimonio reale. Sì, Sansa è stata messa da parte e il patto con gli Stark stipulato tra Robert Baratheon ed Eddard Stark rinnegato per la più favorevole unione con le Rose del Sud. Ma non solo, Lord Tywin Lannister prende il suo posto come Primo Cavaliere del Re e Protettore del Reame... non prima che il suo cavallo abbia depositato i suoi bisogni davanti al trono di spade. Forse un segno del destino, forse un avvertimento per il futuro. Sta di fatto che a Sansa vien da ridere e ora che è libera non vede l'ora di finirla con questa farsa e potersi dedicare al piano per tornare a casa. La cerimonia si protrae per la maggior parte della giornata, tra omaggi e punizioni esemplari, tra lamenti e urla di Joffrey che si taglia sul trono come se quest'ultimo lo volesse respingere, come se non lo ritenesse degno. Alla fine, sola con Dontos nel Bosco degli Dei della Fortezza, Sansa deve fare ancora una volta i conti con la realtà: non sarà mai veramente libera finché non scapperà di nascosto dalla città. Joff è ancora re e può fare di lei quello che vuole a prescindere dal fidanzamento con Margaery. La data è stata decisa, così come è stato anche deciso un metodo: le ametiste della retina di Sansa, il suo passaggio verso casa e l'arma letale che ne disegnerà il destino.

Salve a tuttə e benvenutə a questa nuova serie di speciali sui capitoli inediti di The Winds of Winter! Inizieremo in questo episodio con Theon Greyjoy. Poco distante da Winterfell, al piccolo villaggio vicino al lago, Stannis si sta preparando per l'imminente battaglia contro i Bolton. Dapprima riceve la visita di Tycho Nestoris, un banchiere di Braavos, e i due siglano un accordo per un prestito. In seguito, con l'aiuto di un messaggio di Jon Snow, Stannis scopre la congiura dei Karstark, li fa arrestare e poi condannare a morte. Onnipresente, c'è Theon, emaciato, dolorante, a tratti delirante, che assiste inerme a tutte le interazioni del re e ne è testimone oculare. L'incontro finale del re è con Ser Justin Massey a cui viene affidata una tra le missioni più importanti: assoldare una compagnia mercenaria di Essos per riconquistare il trono di Westeros; ovviamente non prima di aver riaccompagnato Arya Stark alla Barriera da suo fratello e aver scortato il banchiere a Braavos. E anche se Massey dovesse sentire voci su una possibile morte di Stannis, il suo compito diverrebbe quello di vendicare il re e mettere sul trono la sua erede: Shireen. In ultimo, Stannis richiede la presenza di Asha Greyjoy con cui discute della fine del fratello: se deve morire – e morirà, ribatte Stannis – che sia il re stesso a farlo secondo le usanze del Nord, come la giustizia di Eddard Stark.

Jon is summoned by King Stannis. The king offers Jon his dream come true; the title of Lord Stark of Winterfell. Stannis also plans to let the wildlings through the Wall, if they bend the knee. Jon agrees with the wildling plan but needs time to think about being legitimized and made lord of Winterfell. Simon and Mackelly consider shopping for castle-warming gifts.Chapter Review:Jon Snow spars in the yard of Castle Black with Satin. Melisandre interrupts; King Stannis wants a word with Jon. Stannis tells Jon he's heard much about him. Jon confirms some facts and dispels some rumors. The bottom line is that he never turned his cloak. The king believes him. Stannis knows Janos Slynt and knew Ned Stark. Stannis reveals that he plans to let the wildlings through the Wall, as long as they bend the knee and take R'hllor as their true god. The king explains that he's here to fight the true enemy: the Great Other. They will need the wildling's help in that fight.Stannis then tells Jon the primary reason he sent for him. The king doesn't need another sword in the Night's Watch. He needs the North. There's no better way to rally the North than through a son of Eddard Stark. He plans to legitimize Jon, making him Jon Stark the Lord of Winterfell. It was a dream of Jon's when he was young, but he never wanted harm to come to his siblings. However, he's likely the last of them alive. But there's another issue: he's taken The Black. Melisandre says his vow is meaningless, since it wasn't said to R'hellor. The final detail of the plan is that Stannis wants to marry Jon to the wildling Val. Jon asks for time to consider the offer.Characters/Places/Names/Events:Jon Snow - Bastard son of Ned Stark. Member of the Night's Watch.Stannis Baratheon - Brother of dead King Robert, claims the Iron Throne because Cersei's children are not Robert's.Melisandre - Red Woman of Ashaii.

In questo episodio leggiamo della prima sessione di corte del giovane Joffrey delle Case Baratheon e Lannister. La sala del trono, come nota Sansa appena entrata, è vuota. Spogliata dai fasti del regno di Robert e colorata del rosso dei Lannister. In pochi assistono e quei pochi sono fedelissimi al nuovo regime. Gli obiettivi del giorno sono molto semplici: denunciare i traditori, tra cui i lord e i figli delle grandi casate; deporre Ser Barristan dall'incarico di Lord Comandante della Guardia Reale e garantire a Janos Slynt il feudo di Harrenhal. Alla fine, Sansa riesce a superare le sue paure e coraggiosamente si inginocchia davanti al re per chiedere misericordia per il padre Eddard Stark. Essa sarà garantita, a patto che Lord Stark confessi il tradimento. Ovviamente condividete su tutte le piattaforme, spargete la voce e mettete like al video.

Daenerys and her khalasar arrive at Qarth. Various factions vie for her favor. Ser Jorah brings news from Westeros that King Robert is dead, his son Joffrey sits the throne, and the usurper's allies the Starks and Lannisters are at war. Dany is thrilled but Jorah cautions that nothing has really changed. Simon and Mackelly rehash the old news. Chapter Review: Daenerys Targaryen and her crew enter Qarth. It is awash with colors and life, everything that Vaes Tolorro was not. Dany displays her dragons as she is paraded through the city led by Pyat Pree and Xaro Xhoan Daxos. The citizens are naturally amazed. The two men make bids for her affection by undermining the other, Dany ultimately choosing Daxos' offer of a whole wing of his giant manse. The masked woman Quaithe warns Dany to beware all of them. Jorah concurs. While Dany gets a bath, her men visit the rest of the city - she wants to know about the parts that her parade route did not enter. Ser Jorah is sent to the docks to find any news from Westeros. While she bathes, she tries to come up with a plausible route for her back to the Iron Throne. Her enemies, Robert Baratheon, Eddard Stark, Tywin Lannister and Jamie Lannister loom large in her imagination, and her vulnerable position is obvious to all. Jorah returns with Captain Quhuru Mo of the Summer Isles. He has reliable, although not detailed intelligence, that Robert Baratheon is dead. That Ned Stark has been labeled a traitor and that Westeros is at war with itself over the line of succession. She's delighted and promises the captain a handsome reward when he visits her in King's Landing and she sits the Iron Throne. Later Jorah counsels her to not broadcast her intentions, but she wants the world to know she's coming. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Daenerys Targaryen - Daughter of King Aerys. Widow of Khal Drogo. Mother of dragons. Claimant to the Iron Throne. Khaleesi of a small khalasar in Essos. Ser Jorah Mormont - Banished Lord of Bear Island. Advisor to Daenerys Targaryen.

Arya and the Night's Watch recruits continue their trek north into territory that is increasingly ravaged by war. They veer off the Kingsroad to avoid trouble, but progress is slow. Arya sneaks out of camp to pee and is confronted by a pack of wolves. They scare her but leave her unharmed. Simon and Mackelly survey the landscape. Chapter Review: Yoren has left the Kingsroad and is circling around the western shore of the God's Eye. This road barely deserves the name and progress is very slow. Provisions have run out, so Yoren puts two convicted poachers to use, ranging ahead and bringing back dinner. The locals don't want to share their crops and Yoren is forced to pay for that which should be given to the Night's Watch for their service to the realm. They see more and more war damage. Ruined crops, burned keeps. They take in a woman who has lost an arm and a little girl who cries constantly. The woman succumbs to her wounds and is buried. The recruits become more fearful and open-up to one another. They speculate as to Gendry's secret and Lommy comes quite close suggesting he might be Ned Stark's bastard.   Arya sneaks out of camp to use the loo, and is confronted by a pack of wolves. She reaches for Needle, but the wolves leave her in peace. She confides the story of her direwolf Nymeria to Yoren and tries to sleep as wolves howl and humans scream.

Arya and the Night's Watch recruits are badgered by Gold Cloaks intent on returning one of their number to King's Landing. Despite Arya's concerns, it is Gendry who they're after. He's saved by the bravery of Yoren and his fellow recruits. Simon and Mackelly consider the implications.  Chapter Review:  Arya's journey north with Yoren and the latest members of the Night's Watch is punctuated by signs of war. Roadside graves, refugees fleeing south, and opportunistic profiteers. A stop at an inn provides an opportunity for all who have nothing to hide to get a bath. Conversation is of Robb Stark's success and the dangers of the road to come.  Arya goes outside and begins to befriend one of the three chained prisoners. He's from Essos and introduces himself as Jaqen H'ghar. He apologizes for the manners of his friends Biter and Rorge. Arya gets feisty, Jaqen is impressed, and Gendry reminds her not to fraternize with the prisoners.  A contingent of Gold Cloaks arrives, looking for one of the recruits. Arya hides with Gendry explaining that she is who they seek. Yoren faces them down, with help from the other recruits, who rally to protect their comrade. Turns out that they were after Gendry. He's puzzled as to why, and also why Arya thought it would be her. Yoren makes contingency plans for when the Gold Cloaks return in greater numbers - horses for Arya and Gendry, and orders to ride north as fast as possible if trouble comes.  Characters/Places/Names/Events:  Arya Stark - Younger daughter of Ned and Catelyn Stark.  Yoren - Man of the Night's Watch in King's Landing seeking recruits and supplies.  Gendry - Recruit to the Night's Watch.

Arya is heading north with Yoren and the new Night's Watch recruits, including Gendry - Robert Baratheon's bastard son. Arya gets into a fight with Hot Pie whose bulk proves no match for her training. Yoren is displeased and beats her. The boys spend 20 mins discussing how they're going to stretch this out to 50 mins. Chapter Review: Arya is headed north with Yoren and the new recruits (voluntary, and considerably less so) to the Night's Watch. She's making her water away from the road, but with her new haircut she's passing for a boy. Her traveling companions are a pretty sorry bunch, but she's afraid of the three that are chained in a wagon. There are several wagons, as Yoren is bringing enough materials to keep the Night's Watch supplied for the long winter to come. Hot Pie, one of the better fed recruits, tries to take Needle from her, and she uses her Syrio Forel training to beat him within an inch of his life. At one point, Gendry (also headed to the Wall) saves her from getting brained by Hot Pie. Perhaps a friendship in the making? Yoren is not best pleased, but beats her away from the others, so that he can go easy on her (she cannot sit down for several days, so she's not sure how easy he went). He explains that her father's beheading was a derailed plan - and she knows who is to blame: Joffrey.

Cat and company arrive in Riverrun to find Lord Hoster Tully on his deathbed. With both Baratheon brothers vying to take the throne from their nephew, the Northern lords don't know who to support. The Greatjohn Umber has a creative solution, and declares Robb the King in the North to general approval. The boys dip their lances and consider bending the knee. Chapter Review: Catelyn re-enters Riverrun, where she grew up, for the first time in years. She's escorted to her father's rooms by her brother Edmure, recently freed from captivity in Jamie Lannister's host. Lord Hoster is near death but is glad to receive Cat. He's less thrilled to hear that his brother has come home. The old guy still has smouldering animosity for Brynden, and a fondness for his first grandson Robb. Cat finds Robb praying with the northern lords in the Godswood, where she played as a child. He's too busy to see his grandpa, as news has arrived that Renly Baratheon has wed Margery Tyrell and claimed the Iron Throne. With Tywin Lannister retreating to Harrenhal, the path forward for the northern army is not clear. Stannis has the better claim, but Renly has more (i.e., some) charisma.

As Lord of Winterfell, Robb might feel the need to behead Jon for oath-breaking. Grenn, Pyp, Toad, Halder, and Matthar catch up with him and, by being unarmed and unarmored, they shame Jon into returning with them. As he serves Mormont breakfast, he's plotting his next escape. But Mormont reveals that he knows his men, and had set a watch on Jon. He's going nowhere. Mormont uses the dastardly trick of logical argument to convince Jon to stay.

After traversing the mean streets of King's Landing, Arya winds up following the crowd to the Sept of Baelor. There she finds her father, sister, King Joffrey, and the rest. Ned admits to treason and hails Joffrey as the true king. That should then get Sansa what she asked for: mercy for her father. However, Joffrey being Joffrey, he instead calls for Ned's head. The guys walk you through the whole somber affair. Chapter Review: Arya Stark has been living rough on the streets of King's Landing, since fleeing from the Lannister guards. She's been beaten up, had her belongings stolen, and gone hungry. After killing a fat pigeon, Arya makes her way down to the wharfs. There she finds the Wind Witch, the same ship her father scheduled to take her and Sansa home to Winterfell. Stark men hang around out front. Arya can't believe it. However, as she gets closer, she  realizes that she doesn't recognize any of the men. Smelling a trap, she leaves before they realize who she is. She leaves the wharfs and heads to Flea Bottom to eat, only to discover that her pigeon is missing. Dejected, hungry, and beaten up, Arya follows the crowd and the sounds of bells to the Sept of Baelor. There she finds her father flanked by gold cloaks of the city watch. She also sees her sister Sansa, King Joffrey, Queen Cersei, and most of the royal entourage. Ned announces that he's committed treason. That he tried to steal the throne for himself. Joffrey is the true king of the Seven Kingdoms. Joffrey tells the crowd that his mother wants him to allow Ned to take The Black. That Sansa has begged him for mercy. After smiling at Sansa, he turns to the crowd and proclaims that no treason will go unpunished, while he's king. He asks Ser Ilyn Payne to bring him Ned's head. Arya tries to rush the stage, but before she can get there, she's grabbed by a stranger. Arya realizes he's not actually a stranger. It's Yoren of the Night's Watch. He refers to Arya as "boy," tells her that she'll be coming with him. Characters/Places/Names/Events: King Joffrey Baratheon - bastard son of Jaime Lannister and his twin sister Queen Cersei Lannister. Currently King Joffrey Baratheon First of His Name. Queen Cersei Lannister - Widow of King Robert Baratheon, twin sister of Ser Jamie Lannister. Mother of King Joffrey Baratheon. Arya Stark - Younger daughter of Lord Eddard Stark and Catelyn Tully.

Robb Stark's host lures a large Lannister force away from their siege of Riverrun. Battle ensues in the Whispering Woods. Cat watches and mostly listens, and is rewarded with the capture of none-other-than Jamie Lannister and several of his kin. The boys discuss the shift in the balance of power. Chapter Review: Brydnen Tully reports that Jamie Lannister's forces are split into three, in order to surround Riverrun. His outriders have prevented any news (of the split of Robb's forces) from reaching Jamie, and a series of raids and retreats have shown that Jamie is a bit bored and inclined to chase down the raiders. A plan is hatched. Cat watches through the fog, as northern forces array around a valley in the Whispering Woods. The latest and largest raiding party enters the valley, with Jamie and a large contingent of his besiegers in hot pursuit. Horns sound and the trap is spring. Cat cannot really see much, but she hears muffled fighting.  When it is all over, Theon Greyjoy and GreatJon Umber drag Jamie Lannister before her. He came awfully close to getting to Robb Stark, but he now represents a prized bargaining chip. Other Lannister cousins and loyalists are also captured, and the whole direction of the conflict has tipped. Characters/Places/Names/Events:Robb Stark - Eldest son of Eddard (Ned) and Catelyn (Cat) Stark. Current Stark in Winterfell. Catelyn Stark - Lady of Winterfell. Wife of Lord Eddard Stark and daughter of Hoster Tully, the Lord Paramount of the Riverlands. Hoster Tully - Lord of Riverrun. Father to Catelyn Stark, Edmure Tully, and Lysa Arryn. Old and in poor health. Brynden “Blackfish” Tully - Brother of Hoster Tully, uncle to Catelyn Stark. Formerly Knight of the Gate in the Vale. Theon Greyjoy - Ward and hostage of Eddard Stark. Only surviving son of Balon Greyjoy, and heir to the Iron Islands. Lord John “The GreatJohn” Umber - Lord of Last Hearth - huge. Lost two fingers to Grey Wind, now fiercely loyal to Robb Stark.

Jon is very concerned about the latest rumors from the south: Robb calling the banners and marching south to fight for their father. Jon is summoned to help maester Aemon feed his ravens.

Ned suffers some pretty brutal sensory deprivation down in the dungeons. Allowing his overactive imagination to run wild.

He's mocked by King Robert's ghost for where his uncompromising stiff neck has brought him. He gets some wine and advice from Lord Varys.Varys explains how the realm is descending into anarchy, but that Sansa has made a plea for Ned's life.

Bran watches the Karstarks arrive at Winterfell. He talks to Osha, who warns him of the Others and assures him that the danger to their safety is not from King's Landing, but from north of the Wall. Nevertheless, the Stark banners head south to defend the Riverlands and hopefully rescue Ned.

She assures Bran that Robb and his army should be heading north. Whatever his concern is with the south, it's nothing compared to what's coming from the north.

They bring them back to Castle Black for examination, but Othor's story is not quite done yet. Jon and Ghost save Lord Commander Mormont, which is a good job, because Jon had been very naughty.

Arya's dancing lesson with Syrio Forel is rudely interrupted by a Kingsguard and five Lannister men, come to take her to her father. Syrio didn't become the First Sword of Braavos by buying this kind of dead dog. He buys Arya time to scarper, and the boys break it down for you. Chapter Review: Arya and Syrio are fighting, with Syrio telling Arya where to parry, until he lies and scores a hit. She moans, and he points out that she should be watching not listening. Ser Meryn Trant and five Lannisters arrive. Syrio refuses to yield Arya to them and tells her to run. Instead, she sits mouth-gaping as Forel defeats all five using just his wooden sword. But Trant is a different matter, and Syrio insists that she departs, as Ser Meryn lops off the end of Forel's sword. Arya runs. She finds Needle, kills an interfering stable boy, figures that there is no hope of escape through the city gates, so heads down into the tunnels and dungeons she's visited previously.

The King is dead. Long live King Joffrey? King Stannis? King Renly? Whoever! Ned and Cersei confront in the throne room. Ned is sure he has the manpower advantage to win the day, but then Petyr Baelish delivers a lasting lesson in the school of "Don't trust anyone." Mackelly and Simon take sides.Chapter Review: Eddard Stark is awoken to a Lannister show of strength outside his window, and the day only goes downhill from there. At breakfast, he allows Arya to have one last "dance lesson" but refuses Sansa a final goodbye with prince Joffrey, before the girls board the ship headed for Winterfell. The news causes an outraged Sansa to storm off.The day's downward spiral continues when Grand Maester Pycelle arrives and announces that King Robert has died.

As we know, Ned is supposed to act as Protector of the Realm until Robert's heir comes of age. Before Ned can obtain oaths of allegiance, the council is summoned to the presence of the new king. Ned's helped to the throne room by Littlefinger who assures him that the gold cloaks are on the payroll. Joffrey demands a rapid coronation. Cersei tears up Robert's will and demands that Ned bend the knee. Instead, he reveals that Cersei's children are not Robert's and that the gold cloaks should escort the royal family to their rooms.

King Robert has been mortally wounded by a boar. Ned's plan to tell him that his children were cuckoos turns to ashes in his mouth. Cersei, Renly, Varys, Petry Baelish - all start scheming for the next round of the Game of Thrones. Is Ned morally nimble enough to keep up? Mac and Simon mourn the fallen king and consider every angle of the implications. Chapter Review: Thanks to a surfeit of wine from his loyal squire Lancel Lannister, King Robert gets gored by a boar and the two-day journey back to King's Landing has allowed the wound to mortify. There is nothing Pycelle can do. Ned transcribes the King's last will and testament, with a slight edit, for the good of the realm. Cersei departs to...who knows? Selmy blames himself. Varys blames Lancel. Renly suggests to Ned that they take Joffrey into custody to ensure adherence to the terms of Ned's will: namely that Ned act as regent and projector of the realm until Joffrey comes of age. Ned writes to Stannis congratulating him on becoming king. Littlefinger paints a grim picture of the realm under Stannis, who doesn't command the love that Robert did nor demonstrates the level of forgiveness and flexibility that a king will need. Ned is set on his path. Baelish agrees to help but he'll need money to pay off the gold cloaks. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Eddard "Ned" Stark - Hand of the King, Lord of Winterfell, and king Robert's closest friend.King Robert Baratheon - King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men. Lord of the Seven Kingdoms. Protector of the realm. Aside from being king, he's also Ned's lifelong best friend.

Eddard Stark is now in possession of the biggest secret in King's Landing. News so immense it could destroy the very kingdom. But the king is off hunting and Ned has few friends with whom to share the news. What to do? Personally we wouldn't have advised confiding in Cersei Bloomin' Lannister, but then again we're morally flexible soft southern children of summer. From their respective castles, Mac and Simon analyze the latest happenings and weigh up the latest battle between Ned's honor and common sense. Chapter Review: Ned entertains some of his Small Council cohorts - Grand Maester Pycelle and Petyr LittleFinger Baelish. Apparently, Tywin Lannister doesn't appreciate having his bannerman, Ser Gregor Clegane brought to heel. Ned's past caring about Tywin. But he does still care about Cersei's children. They parley in the infrequently- used King's Landing Godswood. It goes about as well as might be expected. She admits to everything (even providing the identity of the father), but she does not admit to Jon Arryn's murder. Cersei tries to use her feminine wiles - but come on - this is Lord Eddard Stark. Ned advises her to gather her children and flee... far. Robert's wrath will follow her as far as she could possibly run. Cersei tells Ned he missed the chance to seize the throne for himself. And follows up with, "In the Game of Thrones you win, or you die."  Characters/Places/Names/Events: Eddard "Ned" Stark - Hand of the King, Lord of Winterfell, and king Robert's closest friend. Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish - Master of Coin, member of the Small Council, and childhood friend to Catelyn Tully. Grand Maester Pycelle - Elderly grand maester of the Seven Kingdoms. Fellow member of the king's Small Council. Queen Cersei Lannister - Wife of King Robert Baratheon, twin sister of Ser Jamie Lannister. King Robert Baratheon - King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men. Lord of the Seven Kingdoms. Protector of the realm. Aside from being king, he's also Ned's lifelong best friend. Tywin Lannister - Lord of Casterly Rock.

Sansa gets into a squabble with Arya which ends with an orange to the face (and to the lap of a silk dress). The sisters are summoned before their father who tells them that he's sending them back to Winterfell for their safety. Sansa is horrified - she wants to stay and marry Joffrey who she insists is nothing like his father. Ned suddenly sees the light. Simon and Mac do too, and they're not afraid to share it with you. Chapter Review: Sansa describes her day at court to Jeyne Poole, critiquing her father's decision not to send Ser Loras Tyrell to defeat the Mountain. Septa Mordane disapproved of Sansa's second guessing, but Petyr Baelish reckons that Ned's decisions could do with a bit of scrutiny. At breakfast, Arya and Sansa fight and end up sent to their rooms. Thereafter, they are summoned to their father's chambers where he announces his intent to send them home. King's Landing is no longer safe.  Sansa wants to stay and mother princes and princesses as brave as wolves and proud as lions with her beloved Joffrey. Arya points out that he's a Baratheon stag. Sansa flares up, insisting that he is nothing like his drunken, fat father. Ned is dumbfounded. Joffrey really is nothing like Robert.

Ned gets a turn on the Iron Throne while King Robert is off hunting. His leg hurts and so do the various bits of him getting poked by the chair - curse you Robert, and you Aegon the Conqueror. His comfort is hardly enhanced by news from the Riverlands of murder and pillage by Lannister-men. Simon and Mackelly consider every implication. Chapter Review:Eddard Stark is in charge and sits the Iron Throne. He's not thrilled by either the responsibility, (Robert is off hunting) nor the ergonomics. While Sansa watches on, he is confronted with news of atrocities in the Riverlands. Un-sigiled brigands have sacked three towns, killing and raping - but not stealing. The only clue as to their identity - one of them is as big as a mountain. Against Grand Maester Pycelle's objections, Ned strips Ser Gregor Clegane of his titles, lands, and life and dispatches a sizable contingent under the King's banner to carry out the justice. He gives the lead of this mission to Ser Beric Dondarrion. In so doing, he slights Ser Loras Tyrell and Ser Ilyn Payne (the King's executioner). Lord Varys suggests that this might not have been the best strategic decision. But we note that Ned carefully picked only men loyal to either House Stark or House Barratheon. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Eddard "Ned" Stark - Hand of the King, Lord of Winterfell, and king Robert's closest friend.

After promising Barra's mother that the girl will want for nothing, Ned and the guys head back to the Red Keep.

We sit in on the Small Council meeting, tell you what happened, why, and make conjectures about the consequences. Chapter Review: King Robert is in attendance at the Small Council meeting. He has learned that Daenerys Targaryen is pregnant and says now is the time to extinguish the Targaryen flame for good. Ned says it's nothing short of murder to kill a 14-year-old girl and her unborn child. Increasingly heated words are exchanged between the two until king Robert can take no more. He puts it to a vote of the Small Council and wins 4-1. Ned refuses to order the assassination and resigns as Hand of the King. A furious king Robert tells him to get out before his head ends up on a spike. Back at the Tower of the Hand, Ned has mixed feelings about leaving. He's excited to get back to Winterfell but worried about the realm being left in the hands of king Robert and the other members of the Small Council. He also feels remorseful that he hadn't gotten to the bottom of Jon Arryn's murder.

Chapter Review: Arya Stark is catching cats. While in the process, she is stumbled upon by princess Myrcella, prince Tommen, and their entourage. When the gold cloaks in her group try to apprehend her, Arya runs. By the time she stops, she's managed to get herself lost deep in the dungeons under the Red Keep. She first runs into three giant dragon skulls, before coming across two men talking while walking through the dungeons. The pair is Lord Varys and Illyrio Mopatis. They are discussing her father Ned getting dangerously close to discovering a secret. There is also mention of having killed one Hand of the King, so why not kill another? Along with that, there is talk of a plot that sounds a lot like it involves getting a Targaryen back on the Iron Throne. When Arya gets back to the Tower of the Hand, she tries to tell Ned what she knows, but it sounds more like the fantasy talk of a child than anything else. Yoren from the Night's Watch arrives to talk with Ned, and Arya is sent to bed worrying about her father's safety. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Lord Varys - Eunuch and Master of Whispers.

However, when Lord Varys shows up to his chambers, he brings tidings that cause an abrupt end to any pleasantness. Chapter Review: Eddard "Ned" Stark and Ser Barriston Selmy look over the body of Ser Hugh of the Vale, the newly made knight and former squire to Jon Arryn, killed the day before by Ser Gregor Clegane. Ned had been planning to talk to Hugh about Jon Arryn's death. Later, Ned and Ser Barriston explain to Robert that nobody will dare risk hurting him in the melee, so he will win but it won't be a fair fight. Robert begrudgingly accepts the fact and agrees not to enter.  During the tourney, Ser Gregor Clegane is unhorsed by Ser Loras Tyrell. In his anger, Gergor kills his horse and then attacks Loras. However, his brother Sandor Clegane (AKA The Hound) jumps in and saves Loras. The brothers duel until the king commands they stop. A grateful Loras concedes the final match to The Hound.  That night a stranger visits Ned's chambers. It turns out to be Lord Varys in disguise. Varys tells Ned of a plan to see Robert killed during the melee, and that queen Cersei forbade Robert from entering loudly and publicly so that Robert would surely enter the competition. He also says that it was Ser Hugh who poisoned Jon Arryn. When Ned asks Varys why Jon Arryn was killed, his answer is that Jon was asking questions.

Eddard sits with Grand Maester Pycelle and learns of Jon Arryn's final days. Was Pycelle acting sketchy during that time or doing what he thought best? Jon Arryn shared cryptic parting words and perused an unlikely book. Later Littlefinger gives Ned a gift and shares a revelation that leaves Ned shocked. We jump head-first into it all, and wonder why poison wasn't considered by more.Chapter Review: Eddard "Ned" Stark visits Grand Maester Pycelle's chambers to learn the details of Jon Arryn's death. Pycelle walks him through the timeline. Jon hadn't seemed himself for a while but he was healthy one minute and sick the next. Pycelle sent Jon's own maester away. He totally discounts poison as a possibility but then subtly fingers Lord Varys, if poison was involved. He says Lysa Arryn shouldn't be taken seriously, as she's mentally unstable. He also reveals that Cersei wasn't in town when Jon died. Ned takes it all in, but questions just who Pycelle serves. Later, after a quick talk with Arya, Ned meets Petyr Littlefinger Baelish. Littlefinger informs Ned that he's found four people with connections to Jon Arryn to interview. He then points out men in the yard who are spies watching Ned's window.Characters/Places/Names/Events: Eddard Stark - Hand of the King and Lord of Winterfell.Grand Maester Pycelle - Elderly grand maester of the Seven Kingdoms.

The inexorable progress to King's Landing of Robert and his new Hand Ned is further delayed while the two of them try their hardest to keep a lid on the powder keg caused by Joffrey and Arya's confrontation. They'd have managed it too but for Cersei and her thirst for vengeance at any cost. No relationship escapes unscathed and we break it all down. Chapter Review Arya is found and taken before the king. A kangaroo-court is quickly convened in which Arya tells the truth, Joffrey lies through his teeth, and Sansa betrays everyone by saying she cannot recall the events.

She goads the king until the sentence is increased to death - for Lady? Sansa's direwolf? Go figure. Ned does that Ned thing and dispatches Lady himself. Sansa is broken-hearted and Arya is seething. Salt in the wounds, when the butcher's boy Micah is killed by the Hound. Characters/Places/Names/Events Darry - The ancestral seat of House Darry.

Cat fends off an assassin long enough for Bran's direwolf to finish the job. Bran, would you just hurry up and name that thing? Cat concludes that the Lannisters are to blame and decides to head south to warn Ned of their perfidy. The boys discuss the ramifications and how long one should wait in a stable before springing your assassination plot. Chapter Review Robb tries to convince his mom to leave Bran's side. Many people need her, and frankly Bran doesn't. Her refusal is interrupted by a fire alarm. Everyone runs off to the burning tower leaving Cat alone with Bran. No mere fire is going to interrupt her vigil.

She takes a horrible hand-wound and is finally overpowered. But Bran is saved by his direwolf who rips the guys throat out.

Tyrion, Jon, and Benjen are headed north. Leaving behind Winterfell and its Stark hospitality, in favor of the true north with its stark emptiness. Jon's trying not to have second thoughts. Tyrion's more than happy to voice those thoughts. We worry at it, like a dog with a bone. Chapter Review Jon and Tyrion have a long chat while heading north to the Wall. Tyrion's reading a history of dragons, explaining that he always loved the idea of flying and could not believe the dragon's skulls he'd seen in King's Landing. Tyrion mentions youthful dreams of killing his family with dragon's fire. Jon thinks that this might be a character flaw, but Tyrion helpfully points out that Jon was probably treated so much better by all the Starks. That one stung. Tyrion doubles down with a few snarky comments about Jon's new family (thieves and rapists) which ultimately leads Ghost to intervene by snarling menacingly in the Imp's face. Jon brings the wolf to heel, and the two patch things up a little. Characters/Places/Names/Events Tyrion Lannister - Younger brother of Queen Cersei.Jon Snow - Bastard son of Eddard Stark, soon to be sworn brother of the Night's Watch. Benjen Stark - Jon's uncle, Ranger in the Night's Watch.Yoren - Brother of the Night's Watch.Aegon the Conqueror - First Targaryen King of the Seven Kingdoms.

Ned and Robert ride out from the rest of the king's travelling circus, just the two of them. We get a second contender for Jon Snow's mysterious mother and get to be a fly on the wall while they discuss a lot of other interesting topics. We examine it all from every angle, and Mac does his best to poke holes in the usefulness of the title of Warden. Chapter Review Ned and company are making their way to King's Landing. King Robert, bored of the slow pace, takes Ned out on a ride. While riding, they discuss many topics, some sensitive like Jon's mother, others important to the realm, such as who should be Warden of the East and what to do about Daenerys Targaryen marrying a Dothraki horse lord. We learn about Robert's deep-seeded hatred of the Targaryens, why Ned doesn't trust the Lannisters, and what event almost tore the two apart. Characters/Places/Names/Events Daenerys Targaryen - Daughter of former king Aerys and sister to Viserys and Rheagar.

Bran scales the towers of Winterfell and overhears the Lannister twins discuss incriminating topics and then perform some unexpectedly taboo deeds. We examine the accusations Jamie and Cersei claim Lysa Arryn has made, why Ned being Hand of the King could be trouble for them, why the queen is hoping her husband dies soon, and why Mac had to rush home for a shower emergency. Chapter Review: It's the day before Bran Stark and some of his family leave Winterfell for King's Landing. Most of the men and boys in Winterfell are on a hunt, so Bran wanders the castle alone. After a while, he decides to climb the towers of Winterfell one final time. While doing so, he discovers Cersei and Jamie Lannister alone and “wrestling” in a room high in the First Keep. Bran hears them discuss the problems Ned becoming Hand of the King presents them, accusations Bran's aunt Lysa Arryn has made, and several juicy topics that could land them in hot water if anyone found out. When the pair discover Bran lurking at the window, Jamie pushes Bran to fall to his likely death. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Lysa Arryn - The younger sister of Catelyn Stark and widow of Jon Arryn.Jon Arryn - Robert's former Hand of the King, Lord of the Eyrie, and foster father to Ned and Robert.Casterly Rock - Seat of power of Tywin Lannister (father of Jamie, Cersei, and Tyrion).Lyanna Stark - The sister of Ned and betrothed to Robert.

We get to properly meet Arya Stark. Horse-faced, blacksmith-handed scourge of Winterfell septas and straight hems. She's not great at needlework, singing, being regal, or pretty much anything expected of a lady. But we love her not in spite of it, but because of it. Sansa is a lot more lady like, and a lot less likeable. Jon's a good old soul. Prince Joffrey might be a perfect match for Sansa, but if he's going to be a wise and just king, he might want to get henchmen other than Sandor Clegane. In this episode, we take a look at our growing cast of characters, find out why Arya named her wolf Nymeria, and debate why the Targaryens spent six generations never having watched a sunset and wondered what's in that direction. Chapter Review: Arya sits through her needlework class with septa Mordaine, along with her sister Sansa, princess Myrcella, and two other girls from Winterfell. Arya struggles with the work and has no interest. After an argument with Sansa and her friends and a bad review from Mordaine, she flees the room in tears. She and her wolf Nymeria find Jon and Ghost watching the other boys sparing in the yard. He can't participate because he's not true-born. The pair watch as Joffrey goads Robb into losing his temper, over dueling with live steel. Characters/Places/Names/Events:  Ser Rodrik Cassel - Master of Arms at Winterfell. Takes no nonsense and rebukes lordlings and princes alike. Sandor Clegane - AKA The Hound. Bodyguard and mildly psychotic spiritual advisor to Prince Joffrey, the seven preserve us all. Septa Mordane - Teacher and spiritual advisor to the daughters of Winterfell. A bit gullible and useless. Nymeria - Arya's direwolf. Named for fabled warrior princess of yore. Support the podcast. Buy a bit of merch from our store.

The guys discuss the first serious contender for the role of Jon Snow's mother and debate why Ned refuses to tell Catelyn who the woman is. We also get insight into Ned's feelings of inadequacy toward his older brother Brandon, who was supposed to marry Catelyn and be the Lord of Winterfell before he was killed by King Aerys. Chapter Review: The chapter sees Ned and Catelyn discussing whether to accept Robert's offer of Hand of the King. Ned wants to decline. Cat thinks that Ned should accept. A secret note from Cat's sister Lysa Arryn arrives that indicates that Jon Arryn was murdered and points the finger at Queen Cersei Lannister as the murderer. That convinces them of the need to say yes, because someone needs to protect King Robert and the realm from the perfidious Lannasters. The next matters to resolve involve who should go to King's Landing and who should stay in Winterfell. Catelyn is disappointed when Ned tells her that she is staying in Winterfell with Robb and baby Rickon. The rest of the kids will go to King's Landing with Ned. Once that has been decided, they discuss what to do with Jon Snow. Catelyn refuses to have him in Winterfell. Ned feels there is no place for him in King's Landing. Ned agrees that it would make sense to let Jon go to Castle Black with Benjen to become a brother of the Night's Watch. Characters/Places/Names/Events: Ashara Dayne - Sister of Ser Arthur Dayne. Possible mother for Jon Snow. Lysa Arryn - Sister of Catelyn Stark and wife of the late Hand of the King Jon Arryn.House Arryn - One of the great houses of Westeros.

In this episode, we discuss the feast to welcome the royal family to Winterfell, as seen through Jon's eyes. We also debate whether Ned is blind to the signs and symbols we've all seen so far or seeing them but doing what he needs to do despite them. Plus, we discover who the mysterious Kingslayer is! Chapter Review:Despite being the son of Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell, Jon Snow finds himself relegated to a table well out of sight of royal eyes at the welcoming feast for the royal family. Jon watches the precession of lords and ladies that include the rest of his family. He gets his first glimpse of the legendary King Robert Baratheon, Demon of the Trident, who turns out to be a disappointment. He is impressed with Ser Jamie Lannister, the twin brother to Queen Cersei. Alongside Jamie in the procession is Jamie's younger brother Tyrion Lannister, the dwarf known as “the imp.” During the feast, Jon's uncle Benjen Stark stop by to see him. Jon asks Benjen to take him back to Castle Black when Benjen returns, so Jon can join the Night's Watch. His uncle suggests he tastes more than 14 years of life before making that decision, as there is no going back. Jon gets upset and storms out of the hall. Outside, he meets Tyrion, who gives him some advice about being different from one's family. Characters, places, and events: King Robert Baratheon - Once a fierce imposing legendary figure. Now a fat shadow of his former self.Queen Cersei Lannister - Daughter of Tywin Lannister, the Lord of Casterly Rock and Warden of the West.

Brotherhood Without Manners - A Game of Thrones reread Podcast

  Zach - Hey everybody, welcome to Brotherhood Without Manners a Game of Thrones podcast by Game of Thrones fans for Game of Thrones fans. Zach - I'm Zach- Nate - and I am Nate- Zach - And we are two brothers who- Nate - Have no manners what so ever. Zach - Well, obviously that's in the name right there, but we absolutely fell in love with George R.R Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series when we read it and we couldn't seem to ever shut the fuck up about it. Nate - So here we are. Zach - So here we are we said why not throw it into a podcast. We will be doing a full spoiler reread of the entire series. Uhh Game of Thrones through a Dance with Dragons and possibly some of the other books. Later on down the line, but right now we're mainly focused on the main series. Nate - So this isn't a s how related podcast as of yet, Zach - We'll probably throw in some shi...show references. Nate - Right, that doesn't mean that we're not going to. Zach - I mean with the last season on the horizon anyway- Nate - But our cannon is specifically focused on the books, Zach - Right Nate - And so not the show but again, we are also big fans of the show Zach - Now you don't have to if you haven't read the books before or you aren't starting to reread with us you don't have to worry about any spoilers in this episode this episode we just want to familiarize you guys with us and get to know who we are ummm, and just a little bit about us why we're so obsessed with martin's podcast. Nate - Okay, So one of the first things that we wanted to dive into is how we even discovered Game of Thrones as a series Zach - Cause you read it first. Nate - I read it first and then fucking you. Took how many years of me prodding and begging to get you to get your ass to read it- Zach - I remember specifically I would try reading it and I would get through the prologue and half of brans first chapter and I would think nope not for me because it reminded me so much of Lord of the Rings and Lord of the Rings I I could never follow the lineage the chain...the chain of names that you had to go through so I thought it was another one of those little did I know Nate - That's the big factor that draws everyone to it... Zach - Absolutely Nate - So when I first was introduced to it it was maybe a year before the TV show was put out on to HBO. Zach - Probably like twenty ten. Nate - And so yeah, it was..uh I was working at the radio station and the DJ I was interning for gave me the book as a Christmas present and he said you've got to read this they're making it a show just do it. And so thankfully he gave that to me and I spent years by myself just Zach - (Laughing) Nate - Wondering if I would ever- have somebody Zach - I do things in my own time, get off my back umm, I Yeah. Yeah. No, I just I couldn't get into it. But when I did when I finally after not only you but many friends around me were shoving this book under my nose saying how have you not read this yet? You've read Potter you you've consumed countless other trilogies and series. Why are you not reading Game of Thrones? I finally decided to give it a chance and I said alright I'm gonna finish this was after the show. You had shown me the show at this point. So we had watched season 1 So I was a little bit spoiled on it but I loved how actually word for word season 1 and book 1 were and that I mean how would you not get hooked on book 1 by the end of it? Nate - Right. Zach - There's just so much to you know, what's gonna happen with so-and-so and what happened with certain characters and- Nate - So because obviously we had different introductions to it I gave you a bit of a bit of background on it trying to get you into the book but based off of that and what you can remember what was It you were actually expecting Game of Thrones. Just to be Lord of the Rings?- Zach - I still, I..I...I, I still remember the way you described it to me you said it was like a group of Sith Inquisitors trying to take a royal throne and so you you through the Star Wars reference in there, which of course it's gonna hook me but So I...I actually went in thinking it was gonna be a little more sci-fi than fantasy and I mean I wasn't disappointed because I do think that this could technically classify as sci-fi in this in this crazy crazy world of Planetos, That were on Nate - I think in the meta scheme of things. Absolutely- Zach - But I I thought it was gonna be another Lord of the Rings a carbon copy of you know, here's good Here is evil. Here's the line. Let's do battle and it'll be a great fun adventure then I heard Martin explained himself that the only thing worth writing about is the human heart in conflict with itself and that quote alone. Just kind of epitomizes what the series is is everyone in conflict with themselves which is just so fascinating to read let alone the slew of characters we go through it with not just you know, we're not just with Legolas Aragorn Gimli we're with Eddard Stark and Sansa Stark and Catelyn Stark- Nate - And their house and then we're in this house with this group of people Zach - Exactly Yeah- Nate - It's not just one- group Zach - So widespread. What did uh... Nate - So for me like cause uh...the way it was introduced to me just being gifted and the guy that gave me the book didn't really give me much to go on so I didn't really have any expectations Zach - Right, right- Nate - And I don't usually because of how name required it was to know all these names know everybody understand to really get a grasp of it I didn't think I was gonna like it I stuck with it just because I really respected that guy he enjoyed it so much and then once I got into it, I was like wow, this is I can't not stop reading i dont know whats going on. Zach - yeah yeah absolutely I...I remember umm...I didn't hear the actual title a Song of Ice and Fire until maybe I'd finished clash I...I...didn't know that the whole Nate - oh that is was the whole Zach - that it was a whole series was called A Song of Ice and Fire and that when I heard that actually I've looked at the books in a new light I've read them in a new light because I was wondering who who does that apply to who is the Song of Ice and Fire about? Is it the whole world? Is it a set of people? Did did that have any sway on you? Did you think anything Nate - I, see I I really took that just into I didn't actually look at it as how it applied to the story for a long time umm, because similarly. I just thought it was a you know play on the houses and the very basic of it. Zach - Right, because there's nothing to read into in Game of Thrones- Nate - right not at all- Zach - between the lines- Nate - And so at the time the only other named trip series like that I read the inheritance cycle by Paolini and the Eragon books and I really enjoyed those but that was the the I think it's called the inheritance cycle Zach - Yes Nate - that's the title of the the series and I hadn't really heard much of that because you know you had Lord of the Rings and you had the two towers but umm, Granted I'm probably just stupid and there actually is a whole term for the Lord of the Rings groupbut like Zach - I dont know if there is, yeah so you could be right. Nate - So like it was just something I thought was the title to describe the group- Zach - Yeah yeah the grouping of it. Nate - It wasn't I think until really I heard about the the song of the dance of Ice and Fire you know the Song of Ice and Fire in the actual Zach - context of the story Nate - where they were, you know, oh well the Song of Ice and Fire we've got that song like that's actually a thing and Im like oh shhhh.. Zach - yea yea yeah yeah, not to get too far ahead but his is the song of Ice and Fire is actually aligned and yes, absolutely I I just know that this book was unlike anything I had ever read before or since even even today while we're still fingers crossed waiting for winds of winter And we just got fire and blood which I'm currently working my way through right now while waiting for the last season I mean there's a plethora of information that we've been getting new Canon Which is one of the most exciting things to me because fire and blood is just continuously blowing my mind so I'm super excited to dive into this podcast and go chapter by chapter and breakdown and again if you haven't read the books I would only listen to this episode because from this point on we will be looking at chapters in context of the whole series whether Nate - yeah, this is a full reread we've we're going through it having read everything and that's how we're planning on analyzing and discussing these each chapter analytically breaking down each individual one with regards to trying to see the foreshadowing throughout the story as a whole not even just each book but the entire series is we have it all the current lore all the current books which as of this date Includes the new fire and blood book that just came out Which obviously means that a world of Ice and Fire is also out on the table Zach - And Dunk and Egg, Woot WOOT Nate - And so we'll be putting everything in context breaking it down comparing it to the story. You know- Zach - Don't get us wrong. We're by no means experts analytically Literature or any otherwise Nate - We just are massive massive massive fans Zach - Massive fans. I...I mean I think three hours of every day of mine is either spent on a subreddit of Game of Thrones or watching YouTube theories and videos on it or- Nate - or just rereading the books and trying to figure out my own theories Zach - yeah, absolutely. It's an amazing series so if you haven't read it take a minute read the books and come back and listen to us because we would love to hear your discussion We definitely would like everybody to write in and let us know if you have thoughts or questions if we say something completely stupid that you disagree with Nate - Or incorrectly, correct? Zach - I mean Nate's always incorrect. So just correct the shit out of him. But, Ya, no just write in and let us know your thoughts and questions what was your favorite chapter of a Game of Thrones again will be probably be doing it in uh, Two chapter blocks where each episode will cover probably cover about two chapters but um, you know that's subject to change depending on chapter lengths or just a flow some chapters tend to, lead right into the next one quite well, but ya, no, Nate - Not to mention our availability for all that but you know Zach - He's not busy. Don't he's not doing anything except this podcast Nate - and so make sure you hit up all of our socials you can get ahold of us at our Facebook, facebook.com/Brotherhoodpodcast our twitter @mannerswithout our Instagram @brotherhoodwithout we also have an email withoutmannersBrotherhood@gmail.com so hit us up and Stay tuned for our next episode where we're really gonna dive into everything (outro music resembling Game of Thrones theme fades in) Zach - Right in the prologue of Game of Thrones the first book of A Song of Ice and Fire. umm I love the prologue I think it's a great intro to the whole book as a whole and I'm really excited to look at it through the lens of the entire story so hopefully you guys can tune in with us and stop by one of our social media platforms and just say, hello. give us a like, ya know? We're here Nate - Later Yo! Zach - Peace! (Outro music comes to crescendo and ends)

Paseando por los pasillos de la biblioteca de Antigua nos encontramos un raro libro cuya portada reza "Historia universal". Gracias a este raro ejemplar analizaremos las analogías y similitudes entre Historia real e Historia de Poniente a través de un viaje temporal a La Guerra de las Dos Rosas, que enfrentó a los miembros y partidarios de la Casa de Lancaster contra los de la Casa de York entre 1455 y 1487; personajes ilustres como Ricardo de York, Eduardo IV, Ricardo III, Eduardo de Lancaster o Margarita de Anjou que inspiraron a personajes como Eddard Stark, Robert Baratheon, Robb Stark, Joffrey Lannister o Cersei Lannister, respectivamente. Además, hablamos sobre eventos que superan la ficción de las páginas de Martin como la Cena Negra (1440), la Masacre de Glencoe (1692), el segundo sitio árabe de Constantinopla (la Batalla del Aguasnegras) u otras similitudes, como los inmaculados con los soldados mamelucos y jenízaros, y la llegada de los Otros con el ciclo de invasión mitológica irlandés y los sidhe.

Welcome to our fifth episode! We will be taking the weekend off, so be sure to savor this Friday-morning podcast. I know you'll miss us. This chapter takes us back to Winterfell with a focus on Eddard Stark, a self-proclaimed humorless icicle man (he said humorless, I put in the icicle part). The King arrives with his posse, and we get to learn a lot of the backstory between Robert and Ned, and about Ned's family. Plus, the King makes Ned an offer her can't refuse. Listen as Brendan pitches a new domain name dedicated to King Robert (www.maidensfantasy.com) and predicts that he has syphilis, while Natasha compares Robert's job as King to Judge Judy.
