You obviously don't understand why people were upset about the rape scene last week if this is what you're taking from it. Apparently the scene last week wasn't supposed to be shown as rape and it was which hurts Jaime's character development or something. Also people were saying it wasn't rape (director, actors) and a lot of viewers disagreed. People weren't complaining that the show had rape in it. There's rape in the second episode of the show I am pretty sure.

Gonna be interesting if Bran and Jon will meet or just barely miss each other.

that scene is completely consistent with his character. He has been jailed for months eating his own shit, killed people to escape, lost his hand and finally returns for to kings landing to be with Cersei. She rejects his initial advances, and this makes him want her even more. Finally he just forces himself on her, which is what was expected for a hothead character like him to begin with. It was already stated the intention was not to be a rape. Also in the latest episode Cersei does not even slightly care that he "raped" her. When I watched it I felt it was a pretty normal Jaime moment.

Had to look up who Karl is. Did not notice his voice too much, but I thought he played his part awesome. Believable mutaneer leader by being the meanest of them all.

Having watched this episode and the solution to the joffrey murder I have to say that the 'predictions' of how the murder went down were just way to detailed and close to reality. Read around page 1060-62 and look at some of the posts, people really are spoilering quite hard here under the cover of 'predicting' what might happen.
Anyway was one of the better episodes imo so far, lots of things in motion to make for an epic rest of the season.

It was a pretty good episode, but some of the end of it didn't make much sense. The mutineers are all deserters of the Night's Watch, so I don't know exactly how they intended to get south of the wall and even deliver a message to anyone who would care about paying a ransom, much less collect it safely. And unless they were planning on abandoning Craster's and trying to live south of the wall as fugitives, I don't know how much good gold would do them anyway.
Why did they capture and immediately start attacking and stab Hodor for no reason other than cruelty, but they captured Ghost and they are feeding him? Surely they don't have unlimited supplies to feed a dire wolf that is apt to kill them if he some how gets free.

Most people weren't mad that they showed a rape, there are plenty of horrible things on the show and rape is just one of them. What bothered a lot of people is that the writers didn't intend for that scene with Jaime and Cersei to be rape, and thought they made it look consensual. Which if that was their intention, they did a terrible job.

Unfortunately it's a very hard thing to police, as any one who is ever right about anything could be a good guesser or could be spoiling things, and only by detailed looks at their posting history can you try to guess which one. Removing their guesses, basicly turns them into full out spoilers as it confirms that they must have been true, and if they were really just guessing and hadn't read anything, then you spoiled it for them. That being said, I do think that there are some people who make "predictions" when they have either read the books, or looked up the answer online.

Well, if you guys want to constantly focus on who might or might not have spoiled something and ruin the thread with constant paranoia, then go for it.
We are trying to keep the thread as spoiler free and enjoyable as possible without becoming total assholes, but you guys are not making it easy.

In episode 1 Joffrey was reading the book about Arthur Dayne and he says he defeated the 'smiling knight', but who's the smiling knight?

It was a decent episode. I didn't like the rushed rebellion in Meeren though. It should have been depicted much more detailed.
Also the scenes with the deserted Night's Watch guys had some inconsistencies like mentioned from karazax before. And I don't like the acting of the commander of these deserters, for me he doesn't fit in.
As a book reader there were some nice elements in this episode which were also new for me. That was really interesting but I don't know if I like these sudden revelations.

So it's implied that the guy drinking from Mormont's skull is from the Boltons because he said something along the lines of, "Where I'm from, we'd chop a hand for that." He and Locke might know each other and make for an interesting scene.
Does Jon know that Robb and Catelyn are dead? It doesn't seem like he knows, but it's weird that no one has told him yet.

Yeah, of course you can't ban everyone who makes a correct prediction. But if it later turns out the same person is a book reader, that should warrant a hefty ban in my opinion. There's no way so many people "predicted" Lady Olenna murdered Joffrey using poison from Sansa's necklace without book knowledge. I don't understand why some people feel the need to look smart on an internet forum to bolster their ego.

The Boltons are known for flaying people, as Ramsay said in episode... 3 I believe?
Locke is a Bolton bannerman, and he cut off Jaime's hand simply because he's an asshole I'd say. We don't know that it's a Bolton thing.

Yeah the problem was that it seemed really inconsistent for Jaime's character arc into someone you have sympathy for. After his revelation to Brienne about the Mad King you're supposed to feel bad for him and also look at Ned in slightly different light based on how he judged Jaime. Now that Jaime is a rapist it's sort of like ok whatever Kingslayer you're getting what you deserve.
It was even more awkward the way that Cersei didn't seem to care AT ALL this episode nor did Jaime feel bad at all.
I'm not really enjoying any of the Craster's Keep storyline. It seems unnecessary, they talk about Mance learning of the Watch's defenses, but he already knows which Castles are being defended by Snow's own doing. If he's looking for holes in defenses he already has plenty of information to go on.
