And Now His Watch Is Ended

Comments

Yannick Denis-Trudel

The showrunners, but more specifically George R.R. Martin created such a rich and deep story with all the characters. You'll never know what is waiting for you around the corner in regards to their arcs. Some may reach the bottom of the well, and then start climbing back into our hearts. Some others may sink as deep as the sea, and stay there forever. Rare in TV and movies. This is a gem to be watched and re-watched!

Last week, I told you I'll use "Remember when..." ;-) Well, remember when Danny gave water to a crucified man on the Walk of Punishment, and after she asked for Missandei as part of the "deal" to get the 8000 Unsullied, Danny told Missandei that the man said to her "Let me die"... Danny understood him that day. No one spoked the "common tongue" (let's call it that way) in Astapor until then. A slave would? Doubtful. She understood Valyrian (small clue, but there nonetheless)

"And now, his watch is ended"... famous line that the Night's Watch say after a fallen comrade is lost... Never thought it was going to be for Lord Commander Mormont. This was a completely hidden death of an important character.

I really appreciate your thinking about Jaime’s redemption arc. I agree that this show consistently shows you people who, in OUR society (sometimes their society too), SHOULD be in prison forever because of things they’ve done — and then does REALLY WELL at making them sympathetic. The first time around, at times I felt like the only person watching who WAS NEVER sympathetic to Jaime. I made a point of remembering that HE was the one who pushed Bran out of a window, who stabbed Jory through the eye — all apparently without any care. And that will always be true. HOWEVER, and I’m sure *rewatching* this has mellowed out my moods about certain people, having seen their arc as a whole — I’m finding him more sympathetic this time around. At least a bit. So far. I don’t think it’s spoilery to say that watching his entire run in this story is an utterly nuts masterclass in redemption arcs. The fact that I don’t like him (and often his), doesn’t detract from that for me. Lady Olenna continues to be a total badass, and the dynamic between her, Cersei, and Margaery is my favorite dynamic on the show. These three women’s intentions are all wildly important to the fate of the world — and we get to experience that through a very personal dynamic.

I started getting sympathetic to Jaime partway through the third book, which this season and the next are covering; the third book is by far my favorite and seasons 3 and 4 are by far my favorite of the show. There is some stuff he does in the show that makes him much more unforgivable than in the books, but even in the books he is not in any sense a good person. Good people just die horribly in this universe so a terrible person like Jaime who starts to recognize how terrible he is and the people around him are, and starts making some small efforts to be better, becomes someone to latch onto in this series.

Diana Rigg (Olenna Tyrell) and Conleth Hill (Varys) scenes together are gold. Two masterclass actors. Somehow even better than the Littlefinger and Varys scenes. Yup, Valyrian is Dany's native language. The Targaryens came to and conquered Westeros from across the narrow sea fleeing the ruins of Old Valyria, which was basically the Roman Empire of this world. So it should be no surprise that the language of both the Targaryens and the nobility on the other side of the sea is still Valyrian, akin to Latin having a similar role for centuries after the fall of Rome. RIP Jeor Mormont. It's been mentioned a couple of times but there are two significant characters with the Mormont name in this show, have you picked up on the relationship and if so which would you consider the more honorable so far? In the books I can't remember if it's actually Margaery or Olenna who propose marrying Sansa to a Tyrell, but it's actually to Ser Loras's older brother, who doesn't seem to exist in the show but in the books he's heir to Highgarden (as younger brother, Loras isn't), who as far as we know is not gay, generally described as an all around good dude so could be a good match for Sansa, but unfortunately crippled which is a big deal in this time period/universe/Sansa's worldview. So we'll see where that goes if the books and show line up at all here.

Another big clue was when Missandei told her, "Valar Morghulis", and Daenerys replied, "Yes, all men must die. But we are not men". Of course, she could have learnt the meaning of that specific phrase alone, but it was still a big indication that she understood the language.

You were wondering why Jaime chose to help Brienne when it seems so out of character for him, and that's something the show never really gives us an answer to. But personally I think that's because despite all the insults and mockery he throws at her, he recogizes deep down that she is a true knight, and he respects that. After all, he is the firstborn son and heir to the Lannister titles and fortune, but instead of following in his father's footsteps, he chose to renounce all that to become a knight and then a Kingsguard ; so clearly chivalry is important to him - even if so far he has largely failed to live up to these ideals.

This is the episode that Emilia Clarke got her first Emmy nomination, for supporting actress, for the series.

I love the idea that good people just die on this show. Obviously that's not entirely true, we still have quite a few good people left here. It's like they're all in different stages of hell

I think so too. For as much crap as he's been putting her through. He admires her. She did best him on the bridge and they probably wouldn't be in this situation if they would have just worked together.
