Brutal Justice of Fanatics
3 May 2015
Jorah Mormont steals a boat to navigate with Tyrion. James and Bronn travel in a merchant ship to Dorne to rescue Myrcella. The Iron Bank is charging their loan and Cersei sends a representative of the Small Council to negotiate with the bankers. Then she has a meeting with the High Sparrow and gives an army and power to his followers to kill and destroy "the sinners", including Little Finger's brothel, his clients and Sir Loras, the brother of Margaery. Tommen unsuccessfully tries to release Loras to send him to the Castle of Casterly Rock. Margaery leaves him to stay with her family. Stannis Baratheon plans to head to Winterfell before the snow. Jon Snow is summoning nobles to help the Night Watch with men and supplies and he has a dilemma with the name of the Bolton family. Melisandre tries to seduce Jon Snow, but he resists to the temptation and does not break his vows. Shireen meets her father feeling bored and rejected and he tells what happened to her when she was a child. Sansa visits the tombs of her ancestral and Little Finger tells a story of her family to her and tells that he will meet Cersei. Further, he tells that the best men can be manipulated and he is the master of manipulation. James and Bronn are found by a patrol and need to fight to survive. Ellaria Sand wants war but she is warned that James Lannister and Bronn are in her lands. Daenerys has a meeting with Barristan and then she does not accept the traditional games. The Sons of Harpy promote a slaughter and trap Daenerys' army.

"Sons of Harpy' is one of the most brutal episodes of "Game of Thrones". The segments are very violent, beginning with the fanatic followers of the High Sparrow and ending with the Sons of Harpy. In-between, Castle Black is preparing for war and Ellaria wants to begin a war. The beautiful part is Stannis Baratheon having a conversation with his daughter. The preparation of Sansa by her manipulative mentor is the impressive Machiavellian part of the show. My vote is eight.
