So who killed Balon Greyjoy? Any ideas?

Still nice tho
Well, I was surprised that they didn't wait until he burned and rose like a phoenix from the ashes.
I think you mean rising like a Phoenix from Arizona.

I ****ing hate Ramsay.
I hope he meets a gruesome ending.
I thought for sure they were going to drag out Jon Snow's resurrection for at least another episode.
That was just an awesome moment in TV history. They're doing a great job of moving things along this season.
My apologies if this has already been discussed:
How come Jaime and Cersai haven't wiped out the Sparrows/religious zealots? They have the Lannister army, Kingsguard, and ZombieMountain. It should be no contest.

I'd say the jury is still out. Last episode did a good job of laying a foundation without much actually happening. This episode, on the other hand, had huge moments left and right. I understand the need to flesh out some of the more tangential story lines, but as a fickle viewer, I prefer seeing **** going down every single week.
I, for one, am looking forward to zombie Mountain continuing to wreck shop. Alleyway head bash was the highlight of the episode for me. Only logical conclusion is the High Sparrow getting ripped in half by season's end.

well....Cersei only has Zombie Mountain and only recently...Tommen has the others and you can see he has been reluctant to act....at least prior to now. I think he just kinda became what Cersei wanted him to be tonight...you may get your wish now as he may in fact do just that for her now.

I think we're supposed to assume that the Sparrows are a much, much larger army.
So who are the random women at the Three Eyed Raven Tree? Also, I am not sure if it was implied but were they actually the ravens just in human form? Kind of came out of nowhere for me.

They are not an army, they are a mob. And when the lannisters decide to act, the high sparrow gets ripped in half.

WTF? Bigger than Jon being resurrected? I assure you that you are one of a very, very small minority.
It's not just that the faith has an armed force, it's that they have the people's support. Imagine a medieval king wanting to overthrow the Pope. He might have the military might, but the political consequences are insurmountable.

Sure. I didn't mean to imply that the Sparrows have been drilling and practicing their MOUT tactics. Just that perhaps they are swinging a lot more weapons.
Is it bad that I now hope Jon sends the direwolf on that annoying little night watch Irish kid? And then on Allister of course? Annoying little brat...
Also, the only thing that bothered me about this episode was how easy the change of power happens at certain houses. I mean, Roose Bolton stabbed and no one is going to have a problem with that? Or even suspect Ramsay? The whole Bolton army, generals, commanders, "well I guess he's poisoned now. Ramsay won't let us see the body so guess we'll just take his honest word for it and make him HNIC. Same thing with the Greyjoy...the old man was obviously murdered and no one is going to question the mysterious return of his brother?

Very good point.
Zombie Mountain smashing that dudes face was pretty cool, but he aint got **** on the giant who hulk smashed the random knights watch archer into the wall.
And i had to completely overlook old witch titties last week because Melisandre was rocking that hot bod again today. Nicest chest on the show.
I knew resurrection was coming, one way or another. I did not expect this mound of man to bash in brains randomly. When Jon came back, I said "there it is." During the Mountain scene, I yelled "holy ****." Troll and his rag doll takes consolation prize for me.
I realize and accept I am not some sort of cerebral consumer of GoT.

I'm going to be in the extreme minority on this but I'm disappointed they chose to bring him back. Like severely disappointed. I hate that there is now a character who is untouchable in a show that is known for main characters fearing for their lives with every waking moment.
The lead-up from last week to now was so much story hand-holding. They just erased one of the most shocking moments from the end of last season and replaced it with the most predictable one. Hell, people called it before the credits even started rolling in last season's finale.
And why Melisandre? A Red Priestess with a history of being wrong and clumsy with her visions and prophecies was the one to revive him? When Thoros brought back Beric Dondarrion, it was the most incredible feat and took insane amounts of power and faith. At least they made it seem that way. Even Melisandre was in awe and disbelief. If it had been Thoros who did it, I might have been able to accept it a bit more easily. Melisandre has never even remotely had that kind of power and all of a sudden she does? I just don't get it.
Again, I realize I'm going to be in the extreme minority here, and I'm not trying really hard not to be a wet blanket, but I do love the books and story and I just needed to vent.

I thought Mellisandre would burn the bloody rags and it would do something crazy ala king's blood.
I'm ready for stupid Kenard/Ollie to get his at the wall.
Bran's flashbacks of young Ned and Lyanna are interesting.

Refresh my memory - where did Zombie Mountain come from/ what episode was he introduced? Is he really related to The Mountain?
I'm not sure if the rest of the Geyjoys realize the brother is back. He wasn't at the funeral, correct?
After the fight with Oberon, one of the Maesters took him into a dungeon and started pumping him full of something. Kept telling everyone to come back later. Then the current incarnation rose to life.
Who was Meera talking to? I don't remember that character that was off in the snow.

He is the biological result of human experiments by (former) Maester Qyburn. The Mountain was poisoned by Oberon's spear in the trial by combat and left almost dead. They took his body to Qyburn's chambers where he kept him alive and used dark magic and potions to "revive" him into what you see today.
Keep in mind, Qyburn was ousted from the Citadel and Maestership for conducting unapproved experiments on humans.

Pretty sure that was supposed to be a generic Child of the Forest. They live underground with the Three-Eyed Raven.
