Top 10 Most Shocking Game of Thrones Episodes

Dark Wings, Dark Words may not have world-altering revelations or massive battles, but it does show us the depraved depths of a certain heartless character, Ramsay Bolton. Things start out simply enough with plenty of exposition and conversation before Robb Stark receives word that Winterfell has been burned down with no sign of Bran and Rickon, and no word from Theon. Next, we’re reintroduced to Theon himself, captured in a dungeon and being tortured. The scene is horribly brutal, and you can’t help but feel a bit sympathetic for Theon, no matter how easy he is to despise as a character. This would of course eventually lead to Ramsay completely emasculating the Greyjoy, and warping him into Reek.

This episode also has a chilling scene with Joffrey and Margaery, where he almost threatens her with his imposing crossbow, accusing her of sleeping with Renley the traitor. As if we needed a reason to think Joffrey was any more of a creep. Finally, things end with a climactic and impressive battle between Jaime and Brienne, which unfortunately ends up with him being captured (again) by the Boltons. Things started out slowly enough for this episode, but the chilling scenes with Ramsay and Joffrey made it quite clear how dangerous these villains are.
