Season Two of Game of Thrones comes to a close, tying up lots of loose ends. Tyrion awakes to find he is no longer Hand of the King, but at least he still has his nose. Joffrey finds a new fiance in Margery Tyrell, but Sansa's elation is short-lived. Theon laments the foolhardy path he has taken, but then tries to embrace it with a rousing speech to his followers. They are unimpressed. Jon kills Qhorin Half-hand to prove to Rattleshirt that he wants to join the wildlings. Daenyrys enters the House of the Undying to rescue her dragons, but has an unexpected vision of her Sun and Stars and son. The men of the Nights Watch hear three blasts of the warning horn for the first time in 1,000 years, and Sam gets a good close look at a wrinkly white walker on a rotting horse. The army of wights surround the Fist of the First Men in an awesome supernatural cliffhanger.

Season Two Episode 09: Blackwater

The entire season has been building up to the siege of King's Landing and it did not disappoint. We were not treated to the spectacle of knights clashing in broad daylight across a burning broken bridge of boats, but we were treated to one hell of a CG explosion that blows Davos into the Blackwater. Cersei gets drunk and morose and almost discovers who Shae is, then almost poisons poor little Tommen. Stannis is the first up the siege ladders, sans helmet. Tyrion rallies the troops and leads them out after the Hound gets spooked by everything burning, and Joffrey wimps out. Lord Tywin's host arrives in time to save the city from Stannis, with Ser Loras apparently leading the vanguard.
