View original postOf course they have liberties because he doesn't show up for the entire book and gets tortured off screen but what we see now is still a little weird. I would have understood if Bolton's bastard cut him loose to have the satisfaction of catching him again. But killing a lot of his own men to do so? Or were they from someplace else? In that case they should have made that clearer.

I was expecting either a new subplot or divergence form the story but S3e4 seems to indicate it was just a little extra filler, and IMO unless they take some time in the next episode to explain that it is going to be very confusing for TV-only fans. Right now form their perspective he isn't even named yet, just some weird SOB who freed Theon, murdered his pursuers, then tricked him into returning to torment at a different place but the same set up with the same people. Kinda WTF, for book fans we can at least guess this is Ramsay screwing with Theon while murdering rivals for fun and profit. It seems like they just hastily threw together something to keep Theon in the show.

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
