Episode #8 Title: The Mountain and the Viper
Episode Air Date: June 1st, 2014
Summary Author(s): Jason de Lima & Jennifer Heinke
After a week hiatus Rob and Josh are back to recap Episode #8 entitled The Mountain and the Viper. They waste no time and dive right into their discussion by talking about the biggest event of the night, The Mountain versus the Red Viper. Rob emphatically says “Red Viper you blew it!!” Josh feels it was a sad ending to a cool character. Rob says he was really feeling it for the Red Viper, that he had an Inigo Montoya vibe going. Josh reiterates that if you’re expecting justice in Westeros, you’ve come to the wrong place. Rob feels that if you have the Mountain on his back, you have to go in for the kill. Josh responds by saying that the confession for the atrocities against Oberyn’s sister were just as important. Rob simply feels like it was overkill. Josh goes as far to say he thinks it was the best episode of the season.
Gilly in Mole’s Town: Hush Little Baby (11:30)
In the opening scene of the episode we go to Mole’s Town where we find some wenches drinking and belching out songs. They are interrupted by the Wildling’s attack on the town. During the attack Ygritte comes upon Gilly and her baby who are hiding, but decides to just let them be and signals for them to stay quiet. Rob says he is bummed out with this scene, on the other hand Josh was okay with it cause it shows a piece of the culture in the North. They point out that the wenches aren’t being nice towards Gilly. Rob mentions that Gilly recognized that the owl hooting is some sort of signal which leads her to take refuge. Josh says how Gilly is from beyond the wall so she’s surely accustomed to these sorts of things. Rob is confused about the Wildling’s plan, and asks Josh if they’re trying to draw them away from the Wall? Josh replies by saying that by forcing men from the Night’s Watch to go to Mole’s Town, there will be fewer men on guard at Castle Black, and therefore it would be easier for the Wildlings to breach the Wall and open the gate. They both mention how they were pleased to see Ygritte again after so long.
Sam & Jon Snow: Pity Party for the Craven (16:35)
They move on to discuss the next scene where we find Jon Snow, Sam and a few other brothers of the Night’s Watch at Castle Black talking about the events at Moles Town. Rob expresses his displeasure with the fact that the brothers were indulging Sam who was pitying himself for having taken Gilly to Moles town to begin with. Rob feels like they have bigger problems to deal with then worrying about Gilly. Rob feels like now would be a good time to reconsider Jon’s plan to flood the gate, but Josh says that they’re running out of time and that the attack is imminent. Josh says the problem is political in nature cause Alliser Thorne and Janos Slynt don’t like Jon Snow, hence their refusal to take into consideration any of his suggestions. Rob is annoyed by their stubbornness. Furthermore, Josh points out that the glory days of the Night’s Watch are over, and says the leaders are lazy and ambivalent. They end this segment by discussing whether next episode will be ...
