    Littlefinger being self-serving is not a spoiler. Everyone is self-serving. I just didn't know this guy was basically evil, maybe even maniacal. At first, I thought he was loyal to the Lannisters, but now we know his intention is to bring chaos.

    It's unfortunate, those will knowledge of spoilers can't completely hide it from their posts. It's like watching a movie with someone who's already seen it. If that person talks about the plot or character development, we can pretty much infer that what he said is at the least partly true. For example, I'm sad to have found out that Sansa and Lady Catelyn will not be doing anything useful for the rest of the series. Of course, I would have been disappointed about them either way. But at least there would have been some suspense.

    All I'm asking is that book readers be a bit more mindful of non-book readers.

    Btw, what was Lady Olenna referring to when she said "Rarely do you meet a man who lives up to his reputation?"

    Aside from the two actresses giving us a series of the best unhappy faces of all time? I'm good with that. Sansa's was especially good at the end of this episode. Poor lass was devastated.

    Also, loved Tyrion's secret speech to Shae. Very true words.

    When Lady Olenna talked to Tyrion about wedding fees, she totally destroyed him. She ended the conversation saying that she was disappointed to see that he didn't live up to his reputation of being drunk and impertinent, but was a brow-beaten bookkeeper. She also was steps ahead of Varys when they chatted, and Varys had a reputation where she expected more ("I heard you're such a clever man --> you surrender rather easily"). When Lady Olenna talked to Tywin, I'd say Tywin came out on top. So she's saying that he lives up to his reputation (of being a hard-ass? tough? etc.) while most people don't.

    And yes, I re-watched those clips to find the quotes. They're rather enjoyable
