This chapter is 8 pages long, but it somehow manages to move almost all the pieces on the chessboard and quietly advance every major storyline since the last Targaryen checkpoint – while also being a one-act medieval hospital drama. Echoes abound through this efficient chapter, ranging from the assassins and meddling witches of Macbeth to the hollow dread of The Godfather. Cam takes us on a detour about the expanded role of the direwolves and their apparent narrative interventions. Maggie draws comparisons between Catelyn and Ned, identifying the ways in which they speak up or remain silent in their respective circumstances – and it's not looking good for our boy Ned!
