However, no one can accuse the King of cowardice as he at least knows how to lead his men into battle. The suborn, stoic and seemingly hypnotized King continues the assault against the capital despite the heavy casualties already sustained and the thousands more dead it will likely cost. Remember Melisandre whispered to the boy that death by fire is the purest death.Įven though the green fire wipes out the a large portion of the Barartheon fleet, Stannis isn't about to surrender. Bronn's arrow has set sail and the wildfire blows his ship to bits and sends his crew flying (dead?) into the ocean. It turns out to be more of a delivery vessel and Davos finally sees the green substance oozing out of the back of the ghost ship but it's too late. As far as the defending fleet? Well, there is none save for one ship. The first half of the episode focuses on Davos (and his son) on the sea with the second, out of obvious necessity, moving over to Stannis' battle on land.Īs the ships approach and the bells ring out, Davos orders that they meet Joffrey's ringing with some noise of their own, striking up the drums. Well back of the Onion Knight, Stannis steers down the water sporting his usual hypno-face even though the Red Priestess Melisandre has been left behind. "Blackwater" begins aboard Davos' ship with him leading the entire Royal Fleet to the siege, and all of this was shown to us in a wonderful opening shot. When she arrives, he offers his little bird safety and a ride north. He flees from the fires directly to Sansa's chambers in order to sit and brood in the dark. The fire proves too much for the dog and he decides it's better to burn his allegiance than to, you know, literally burn. Once he sees the flames coming his way though, he's a deer in headlights and needs his newfound buddy Bronn to save his life. Maybe not as scared as Joffrey, but it's clear this fight is not for Sandor Clegane, even though he musters enough courage to go outside the walls as a welcome party. The Blackwater goes ablaze with an absolutely stunning CGI sequence - the green fire having a different 'life' than the orange as they both lay waste to the ships - and the Hound is instantly scared shitless. After barking at Bronn, the loyal dog takes to his master's side and watches Stannis' fleet approach from atop the battlements with Joffrey, Tyrion and Lancel. The Hound has seen enough flames to last him a lifetime and he has the face to prove it. And surprise, surprise, guess who hates fire? The next we see of the sellsword, he's playing a key part in Tyrion's plan, setting loose the arrow that starts the fire. And Bronn is right, Tyrion does do pretty well with that axe. Speaking of getting killed, Bronn tells Tyrion not to since the 'friends' have grown quite fond of each other since the first time they went into battle. The two 'hard men' are about to come to blows but the city bells ring out and signal the coming siege.įorget each other, there are plenty of Stannis' men to kill. That is, until the Hound comes sniffing for a bowl of ale and doesn't seem to care for Bronn's general demeanour, attitude or jib cut.

"One more drink before the war, shall we?"īronn, the Commander of the City Watch is readying for the fight between King Joffrey (really Tyrion) and Stannis Baratheon by drinking, leading a rousing chorus of "The Rains of Castamere" and playing broken-nose striptease. Before they drink, Ser Loras Tyrell bursts in the room followed by her victorious Lord Father to announce. Suicide is painless, and we all know what the Lannisters did to the Targaryen young. The Queen Regent does deliver one of the best speeches of the night - one of the many instances where we learn that war equals a lot of rape - before taking Tommen to the Throne room. Will she follow the dog fleeing north?Ĭersei, in a sweet breastplate, stresses how hiding makes her feel weak and that she'd rather fight with the men - even though she implements safeguards against the women surviving long enough to even see the enemy (Ser Ilyn and the 'drops'). Until Cersei leaves, then Shae gets Sansa to flee to safety in her bedchamber, but there she's confronted by The Hound.

Despite all the lessons Cersei thinks she's imparting, Sansa finds her strength in comforting and helping the others. As the two Ladies remain locked away in Maegar's Holdfast, we get to see how very different the two woman would be as rulers.
