Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIan McElhinney, who plays Barristan Selmy, was surprised to learn of his character's death, as he had read the novels where Barristan was still alive at that point, and becoming an increasingly prominent character with his own point-of-view chapters. McElhinney suspected something when his shooting schedule was shorter than usual; his death scene was originally scripted to occur in Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken (2015), but got pushed ahead during production. In an interview after the episode aired, McElhinney remarked, "He had to be seen fighting. He's been talked about as the greatest knight that ever was, so he's got to fight. So it's great that he does." In the last book that was released at the time, Selmy was gearing up to fight a battle, and it was speculated that he might die in the unreleased next one.
- GoofsAt the end of the last fight, Grey Worm lies down with his head close to the corpse of one of the Sons of the Harpy. Then the camera changes to aerial view, and the corpse is gone.
- Quotes
[Melisandre enters]
Melisandre: Lord Commander.
Jon Snow: How can I help you?
Melisandre: Come with us when we ride South. No one knows the castle as well as you do. It's hidden tunnels, it's weaknesses, it's people. Winterfell was your home once. Don't you want to chase the rats out of it?
Jon Snow: Castle Black is my home now. The Night's Watch take no part in the wars of the Seven Kingdoms.
Melisandre: There's only one war. Life against death. Come, let me show you what you're fighting for.
Jon Snow: You're gonna show me some vision in the fire? Forgive me, my lady... but I don't trust in visions.
Melisandre: No visions. No magic. Just life.
[Melisandre bares her upper body, and Jon's touch roams over her]
Melisandre: Do you feel my heart beating? There's power in you. You resist it, and that's your mistake. Embrace it!
[Melisandre sits in Jon's lap]
Melisandre: The Lord of Light made us male and female. Two parts of a greater whole. In our joining, there's power. Power to make life... power to make light... and power to cast shadows.
Jon Snow: I don't think Stannis would like that very much.
Melisandre: Then we shouldn't tell him.
Jon Snow: I can't.
Melisandre: Why?
Jon Snow: I swore a vow. I loved another.
Melisandre: The dead don't need lovers. Only the living.
Jon Snow: I know. But I still love her.
[Melisandre feigns that she is about to kiss Jon, stands up, goes to door, turns back]
Melisandre: You know nothing, Jon Snow.
- ConnectionsFeatured in Thronecast: High Sparrow (2015)
"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.
