Cleganebowl confirmed, get hype.

"The Lion and the Rose" - Looking forward to seeing the Royal wedding, apparently it is suppose to be really extravagant according to the cast/crew

Some elevator music for you.

So what is up with Oberyn and Ellaria? I havent had a chance to read the third book (grrrr) and I am wondering, is there any (non-spoiler) stuff i should know about these characters? or should I just stfu and keep watching lol?

[This will not have spoilers that were not said in the show itself. That said, if you dont want to spoil a single thing for yourself, dont read this]

Ellaria is Oberyn's paramour (non-maried long term lover). The main thing to note about these guys is how much they romanticize everything from sex, to past acts. Given this, the Dornish are far more accepting of bastards given their wider acceptance of sexual passion in comparison to the rest of Westeros. Otherwise, you should take away the fact that Oberyn really hates the Lannisters, the fact that he stabbed some dudes wrist for singing a song he didnt like is a clear sign of this. Oberyn is also the younger brother of the far more passive Prince Doran Martell (who remained in Dorne due to his health). This tension can be seen in the fact that Oberyn, who is known as a hothead and infamous warrior, is far more unsettling in the capital given the conflict between the reigning house and theirs that has persisted even after the war.

EDIT: Oberyn is also known as the "Red Viper", his weapon of choice is an ash spear, and he has 8 bastard daughters collectively known as the "Sand Snakes" (who are currently in Dorne) who are known to share his personality traits. He is also rumored to be bisexual (which the series makes obvious)

As for the rest of their complicated relationships and importance, you will just have to wait and see

On another note:

Thanks fire! that was helpful!

So, anyone hyped about the martells? That scene with them choosing the whores was really great: tells you so much about both Oberyn and ellaria and their personalities. Can't wait to see how it all unfolds with them.

I always thought it would be in the throne room and that Joffrey would die at the foot of the iron throne.

Ding Dong, the witch is dead
