Game of Thrones: Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken (2015)
No real surprises but a sign of what's to come
After an epic episode 5 where everything seemed to happen and there were twists and turns at every corner, this episode seemed to take stock and set up for the remaining 4 episodes of the season.
It was a good time to strengthen some characters, their relationships and the relationships we have with them. A time to remember why we love certain characters and why we hate others.
Tyrion and Bronn gave us quotes only they can and endeared us to their cause that little bit more. The ninja turtle Sand girls let us down with a fairly poor fighting scene. Tyrion and Jorah get to save their legs and receive a fast track to the fighting pit, thanks to some Slavers. Baelish was up to his usual bag of tricks, as well as Cersei continuing her refusal to roll over and have her belly scratched.
Theon seemed back to being Theon (but still at a crossroad of who he is and who he fights for) and it was a stark (haha pun intended) contrast for Sansa; she finally grew a pair and stood up to someone, before being robbed of all dignity and becoming yet another passenger to Ramsay and his sadistic ways. For a moment you think Theon might react and help Sansa, but judging by how pivotal Ramsay has been this season that would just be too easy.
The usually unmoved and powerful Lady Olenna failed in her attempt to remind Cersei of the ongoing dependence on House Tyrell. Consequently the now Queen and the Heir to Highgarden fell into an obvious trap and were remanded by the Faith Militant. Marjorie called on King Tommen to assist - he however continues to be a wet noodle; the "King" proving powerless and naive when pitted against the tact of his mother.
