    I think Ned would have been perfectly fine with making him Jon Stark, but Catelyn was NOT about to allow that threat to her sons and their place as the rightful heirs. So, I think the only reason Ned did NOT make him a Stark was that he didn't want to disrespect Catelyn by forcing that on her when he had already dishonored her by having a bastard son in the first place.

    • @abstractjwl806
      @abstractjwl806 6 лет назад +13

      sarah4hp yeah, catelyn wouldn’t stand for it and I don’t think Ned would have even tried because of that. But in a perfect world Ned would have made him a stark later in life, maybe Rob even. After Jon took the black he couldn’t be a threat to Winterfell’s throne anyway.

      I don't know if this is considered as book spoilers for Nikki and Steven, but in the books Robb did legitimise Jon before his death and named him his heir! He was about to relieve him from his Night's Watch oath (Kings can do that)!

    Sidenote: The 'No Ones' were mentioned two times before Jaquen made his first appearence in the show. First time when Robert wanted Daenerys dead. The small council considered hiring them to kill her but decided against it, cause it would cost to much gold. Second time was Danys maid. She mentioned a man she had seen who was able to change his face like other people their clothes. The writers love to do this. Mentioning something in a way that you don't pay much attention to it and then, some seasons later.......

    With this scene with Dany, I always think of the Ned quote, "If you would take a man's life, you owe it to him to look into his eyes and hear his final words. And if you cannot bear to do that, then perhaps the man does not deserve to die."
    Now, I'm not saying I don't think Dany did the right thing here; she was upholding her own laws. However, she's not a squeamish girl. By looking away, it makes me think that *she* didn't believe he deserved to die.

    In reference to your conversation at the beginning - I love how much Jon's character has grown from season one to now, and yet there are some elements of his character that have always been there. One thing he has never had a problem with is doing the right thing to the detriment of himself. This can be seen in the very first episode when he essentially saved the wolf pups by suggesting that the trueborn Stark children were meant to have them (This happened before he found Ghost). Therefore it could be said that he saved the wolves by eliminating himself from the possibility of having one. I think that it is because he came from the belief that he is of little worth (as a bastard) that he puts the lives of others above his own desires.

    “‘I would need to steal her if I wanted her love, but she might give me children. I might someday hold a son of my own blood in my arms.’ A son was something Jon Snow had never dared dream of, since he decided to live his live on the Wall. ‘I could name him Robb. Val would want to keep her sister’s son, but we could foster him at Winterfell, and Gilly’s boy as well. Mance’s son and Craster’s would grow up brothers, as I once did with Robb.’” -A Storm of Swords

    Winning a battle and freeing the slaves was the "easy" part for Daenerys, she knew who the enemy was. But ruling the city is a completely different thing. Every decision you make has consequences, you don't know who to trust and no matter what you do someone is going to be unhappy. If you are soft your enemies will take advantage, if you are ruthless people will fear you but hate you. And you can't explain every decision you make to the people. So yeah, Daenerys is in a very tough spot. She can listen and learn, but in the end all the weight of every decision is on her shoulders.I think she's supposed to be 13 on the first books and 17 years old on the first season, she's very young and has zero experience, so she's going to make mistakes (obviously).

I find that she resents the fact that she was born a woman because if she wasn't she could have been the perfect heir to Tywin. She even referred to herself as Tywin but with teats. Tywin really did put it best tho when he said he didn't trust her because she was a woman, but because she wasn't as smart as she thought she was. All the paranoia and elitism really blinded her and made her a walking contradiction.

Shes damned if she does, damned if she doesnt with them. So fuck it. The whole point of her plot in Meereen is to learn how to rule, and u learn the most form ur mistakes not victories, as the great Bjorn Ironside once said. Even GRRM said that he made her book 5 plot abt the things that were missing from the LOTR when Aragorn ruled, LOTR never says the laws he made, the financial decisions, the difficulty of trying to please everyone.

      It's brutal, but the master's have a lot of justifiable payback coming their way. If they won't leave, these kinds of things are just going to keep happening; there's just too much bad blood for it to go down any other way.
      There's about a million steps to take in Slaver's Bay before things will be running the way everybody wants. This is just too much, too fast.

    If Ned had legitimized Jon, Cat would have been deeply wounded and insulted. It would have put him in the line of succession, and he is about a month or two older than Robb. It's why she couldn't keep her promise, I think. The Tully words are "Family, Duty, Honor", and Cat takes them to heart.

    After several videos of Steven saying Jon Snow in Jamaican I'm still giggling. 🤣
    Tip: the accent on the word Snow in northern England is on the 'no' but to be fair it depends on how you pronounce that as well. Hard to describe because if you move 50 miles in any direction in Britain the accent and dialect can be totally different.

    GoT in the morning, yay! Uncle Kevan is badass. Always love seeing Uncle Kevan! Lots of good stuff in the episode, and I love your discussions about the show. And Doran Martell does not want war, not like that. Think about it. Dorne is not as populated as the rest of the realm, and a war would probably end up destroying them at this point. It's not enough to just want revenge, he has to think about his people. With Oberyn dying in a legal fight, that's not a basis for war.

  • @thedifferent14
    @thedifferent14 6 лет назад +4

    This clearly shows another misconception people (in general) have about ruling. Just because you make the right decision, that doesn't mean it's going to have a good outcome. Sometimes, when you do something for people, they can take it to mean that you are now "on their side", like no matter what they do you'll support them. Dany IS on the side of the slaves, but not to the point where they can overstep and do things they aren't supposed to against each other and Daenerys. Had that man Mossador murdered actually been innocent for whatever reason, then Dany has an innocent man to obtain justice for.

  • @simeonteitelbaum3673
    @simeonteitelbaum3673 6 лет назад +31

    The problem with what Daenarys is doing is that you can't install rule of law without developing a social order first. Meereen is made up of two populations who absolutely hate each other, they cannot simply begin to live together as if Meereen's entire history has become null and void just because she conquered it.
    Its no coincidence that The free city of Braavos would remind one of Venice as it is modeled after the Italian independent city states of the middle ages and early Renaissance. It is more wealthy and civilized than arguably any other place in this world, and even allows practitioners of all religions to worship freely. This is an important point in understanding the faceless men, as you'll see.

    • @Humalkeisari
      @Humalkeisari 6 лет назад +7

      The entire Slaver's bay storyline is George R. R. Martin's response to the Iraq war. Dany (the US) comes and overthrows the evil rulers, but only causes more problems and ends up having to rule over a place they don't belong. He's also said in interviews it's one of the hardest places he's written himself into cause he didn't know how to solve the issues there.

    • @simeonteitelbaum3673
      @simeonteitelbaum3673 6 лет назад +4

      Yeah I surmised that too and it is an effective exploration of such a quandary, sort of (The dynamics of Meereen are about class as opposed to religion). But I've always had an issue with GRRM''s need to make points about things instead of just telling a story. That may be how he got into this mess and why he may never finish the novels.

    This is something that I didn't realise initially when watching season 5, but the lady speaking to Doran Martell is Ellaria Sand, Oberyn Martell's "paramour", who we saw last season a lot. When I first starting watching it, I thought she was Doran's wife. Also The Sand Snakes are children of Ellaria and Oberyn.

    Interestingly, there’s a parallel to how Stannis deals with subjects overstepping their bounds vs. Dani. Dani is more concerned about how she’ll look as a ruler if she’s undermined like this. She wants to be seen as just and fair, but it’s Stannis who comes through as actually IS in this instance.

    It was a bit sad that Mossador (the former slave) faces the consequences for murdering a Harpy but there is little justice for the people murdered by Harpies. I think this was one of the first signs that, despite Dany's wanting to align herself with the oppressed she sees herself among the lords.

    It really is endlessly satisfying to see Cersei realize how little control she actually has over people. The thing she's failed to grasp her entire life is that nobody is afraid of or respects Cersei Lannister, but *everyone* feared and respected Tywin Lannister. All the privileges Cersei enjoyed up until now were because nobody dared to cross Tywin. Without his presence, Cersei is nothing and nobody. Qyburn is one of the only true allies she has, and I honestly don't even get why he cares enough follow her.
