Season 5:
Episode 1
The Wars to Come
Summary:
In
a flashback, a young Cersei is told a somber fortune by a witch.
After Tywin's burial, Cersei chastises Jaime for freeing Tyrion and
their cousin Lancel returns, now a devout religious man.
In
Pentos, a despondent Tyrion agrees to accompany Varys to Meereen to
support Daenerys's claim.
In
Meereen, the insurgent "Sons of the Harpy" murder an
Unsullied, and Hizdahr zo Loraq and Daario Nahaaris try to convince
Daenerys to reopen the traditional fighting pits. Daenerys'
locked-away dragons breathe fire at her when she comes to check on
them.
In
the Vale, Littlefinger puts Robyn in the care of House Royce and
leaves with Sansa, their caravan passing Brienne of Tarth and Podrick
Payne.
At
the Wall, Stannis wants to enlist the Wildlings in his war against
Roose Bolton. Jon Snow is unable to convince Mance Rayder to bend the
knee to Stannis, who then has Mance burned alive for treason.

Mood
before the episode was:
20:59
Two minutes. If I see spoilers now... I'm killing the
person
above me.

21:02
And those lovely shiny titles are back.
#GameofThrones
And
a prophecy with hairstyling...
21:03
Bitchy in girlhood, bitchy as a woman. Born bitchy.
#GameofThrones
21:05
Also... I've had more or less the same hairstyle on and
off
for forty years? #GameofThrones
21:06
Why is @MaggytheFrog hot? Why? Why?
Why?#GameofThrones
21:07
Yay! The prophecy... #GameofThrones
21:07
Also... Twenty children? Robert sure got busy...
#GameofThrones
Then
Tywins corpse. And Cersei and Jaime:
21:09
To be honest I'm trying hard not to laugh at those
stone
eyes. #GameofThrones
21:10
Also everyone's getting my wrath this year. Have you
noticed?
#GameofThrones
Tyrion
is unboxed like a Nameday gift:
21:11
So...That's what they mean by a dick in a box.
#GameofThrones
21:12
So... Its a fucking crate? That explains all the holes in
it
then. #GameofThrones
21:13
Tyrion is as classy as ever. Also... Love the beard.
#GameofThrones

21:19
That poor Harpy was one day away from retirement.
#GameofThrones
Unsullied
love hugs. Apparently:
21:20
What is this? The mystery of the pillar and the stones
now?
#GameofThrones
21:21
So...This was not that Unsullied's lucky day. All he
wanted
was a nice cuddle... #GameofThrones

#GameofThrones
21:30
Bitchy Brienne and Puppy Pod. #GameofThrones
21:31
Oh Brienne... Sansa was literally just there.
#GameofThrones
Loras

21:32
Oh Loras. She's gonna fuck you up. #GameofThrones
Pycelle

21:32
Pycelle has been friendzoned. Also hey Lancel.
#GameofThrones
21:34

him.
Kill him now. There's a helpful window right
there.
#GameofThrones
Loras
has Olyvar comfort him. With his penis:
21:36

Awkward.
#GameofThrones

barges in and spoils his fun:
21:37
Oh Loras. You sex mad fool. Wait... Margaery seems to
like
me now? I'm confused... #GameofThrones

REALLY
like me. #Laughs

21:46

21:49
Just show the damn dragons! Enough pointless talking!
#GameofThrones
Dany,
FINALLY, visits her dragons. And they hate her now:
21:49
And the angry teenagers no longer love their Mother.
No
surprise there. #GameofThrones
21:50
This is what you get when you chain up your children
for
a while. #GameofThrones
Jon
Snow tries to persuade Mance to dance to a different tune. One that
won't end in a fiery death:
21:51
Mance is awesome. Enough said. #GameofThrones
21:52
@HBO_UK Everything is my fault. Apparently.
Woo!

#GameofThrones
Review:
This
episode does a really great job of setting up the storyline's for
future episodes of Season Five but feels a little sluggish in places.
No doubt the other episodes will go from strength to strength after
this one.
The
highlights:
Cersei
Lannister
Brienne
and Pod
Melisandre
Jon
Snow and Mance
And
those dragons. Wow.
