If you watched Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 6, then you know last week's installment offered even more horrific nightmare-fuel than usual.
The show's creators are no strangers to dealing with the fallout from particularly disturbing scenes (Remember last year's Cersei-Jaime Lannister encounter? Our apologies if you managed to block it out.), but this time the fecal matter has hit the fan like never before.
When a senator threatens to boycott your show you know you've reached an almost unprecedented level of controversy. So maybe the writers anticipated the blowback and they're planning to deliver a more subdued, crowd-pleasing episode this week.
Ha! If you believe that, you know nothing, Jon Snow...
1. Snow on Snow
We're guessing Jon's thinking, "I totally should've taken the Stark name when Stannis offered. I hate this weather."
2. Melisandre and Stannis
Melisandre: "What do you say we clear off this table and get down to business?" Stannis: "Okay, but can you not get pregnant with a weird shadow monster this time? Those things scare me."
3. Jaime and Myrcella Have a Chat
"The good news is: your dad's not dead. The bad news is: I could use a new gold hand for Father's Day."
4. Tommen Gonna Knock You Out
Tommen looks more than a little pissed here. We're guessing being the king but having no real power has gotta sting a bit.
5. Cersei Lannister: Mother of the Year
Cersei attempts to console Tommen. We guess after making him a pawn in her sick game, the least she can do is offer some kind words.
6. Sam and Gilly
GoT's least effed-up couple enjoys some time together. We imagine they don't get much privacy at Castle Black.
