Episode 27 Preview: “The Bear and the Maiden Fair”
“The Red God is the one true god. Who’s yours?” – Beric Dondarrion
“Death.” – Arya Stark
“Dany exchanges gifts with a slave lord outside of Yunkai. As Sansa frets about her prospects, Shae chafes at Tyrion’s new situation. Tywin counsels the king, and Melisandre reveals a secret to Gendry. Brienne faces a formidable foe in Harrenhal.”
“The Bear and the Maiden Fair” is directed by Michelle MacLaren and written by George R.R. Martin. Originally, Martin reported the episode’s title as “Autumn Storms” and later as “Chains,” and confirmed a final title change after some scenes were shifted into different episodes.
Ours is the Fury: I’m interested to see the results of the new storyline for Gendry, a rather substantial change from the book. Brienne’s “formidable foe” should be a highlight this week as well.
