This is a guest post and survey by WotW reader James Rivers.
If the top parlor game ahead of a new season of Game of Thrones is theorizing which new characters will show up who weren’t publicized ahead of time, the runner-up is likely predicting the episode titles.
The 40 so far have included the obvious (“Blackwater,”) the
wink-wink-nudge-nudge to book readers (“Baelor,” “The Rains of Castamere,”) the double-entendre’d (“Kissed by Fire”), and now and then the misinterpreted-as-a-double-entendre-when-it-really-wasn’t (“Mhysa”). Unfortunately none are as straightforward as those that Friends used to do (or else the season two premiere would have been called, “The One Where Tyrion Crashes Joffrey’s Party”).
The early Season 5 episode titles could leak any day now, so before they do, let’s put our heads together and see what the WatchersOnTheWall community can collectively come up with.
It’s pretty simple: Fill in the blanks below. The survey will remain live until March 6th, at noon Eastern Time– or until the first batch of titles leak/are released, whichever happens first. Then we’ll compile the results and see how close everyone came to the mark. This Friday, we’ll reveal the results of the survey.
The survey is under the cut!
The survey will be accepted even with blank spots remaining if you’re stumped for a full ten, but why not toss in wild guesses if you aren’t sure. If you have ideas but aren’t certain which episode number the title might fall into, submit the title suggestions in any slot. At this point, episode order is incidental. We’re just having some fun here!
Let’s get this show on the road.
Ep. 501 – Valonqar
Ep. 502 – The Griffin Rejected
Ep. 503 – Fat Pink Mast
Ep. 504 – Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Ep. 505 – Fear Cuts Deeper Than Swords
Ep. 506 – The Shy Maid
Ep. 507 – The Roose is Loose
Ep. 508 – The Long Night
Ep. 509 – A Lion Still Has Claws
Ep. 510 – For the Watch
I’ve gotten a bit rusty on when what we know is happening is happening, but you get the point. There are a few joke ones thrown in too just so I didn’t leave any blanks.
I would be the happiest woman in the world if we ever got an episode called “Fat Pink Mast.” I mean it’s not gonna happen but praise all the Gods if it did.
It’s great that you put up this article! We suggested something like this the other day in the comments. I hope people participate. Let’s see how many we guess correctly!
If it wasn’t for 1×10, “Fire & Blood”, I’d have guessed that’d definitely be the title of 5×10, both because of Dany and Doran. As for the others, I’ve guessed “Valonqar” for episode 1, “Sparrow” for episode 3, “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken” for episode 4, “Dead things in the Water” for episode 8, and “For the Watch” for episode 10.
My best guesses
Ep. 501 – House of Black and White, The
Ep. 502 – Small Man with a Big Shadow, A
Ep. 503 – Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Ep. 504 – King at The Wall, The
Ep. 505 – Sons of the Harpy, The
Ep. 506 – Ghost in Winterfell, A
Ep. 507 – Queenmaker, The
Ep. 508 – Hardhome
Ep. 509 – Walk Of Atonement
Ep. 510 – Daznak’s Pit
I concur that “Fat Pink Mast” would be the best episode title ever.
Where’s Illyrio
Where are the Greyjoys
Only 3 sand snakes
For the Watch
Brienne and Pod’s incredible uncut adventure
Where’s Aegon
Winds of Winter
Tyrion meets Dany but not Victarion
Oh no we forgot about the north
Ser Pounce first of his name
Embarrassingly, I’ve already forgotten a few of the names I submitted. Fun idea, though!
Here’s what I remember:
The House of Black and White
The Viper’s Daughters
Sons of the Harpy
The Rhoyne
A Stark in Winterfell
And Now My Watch Begins
Hardhome
The Dragon Queen
The Brotherhood
I’m waiting for an episode titled “The Rat Cook” or “Rhaegar, Jared and Symond” or more simply “Frey Pie” or “This should have been called The North Remembers but we used that too early”
MoF,
All look pretty good, but I think Cian’s right about number 10 being “For the Watch.”
Faceless Frey,
We may very well get “The Rat Cook.” I doubt D&D can resist Frey pie! In fact they’ll probably have it served to *Walder*.
MoF,
Ha! We had at least two identical ones.
This is what happens – I don’t even want to be right anymore, I just want episodes titled “Fat Pink Mast”, “Frey Pie” and “Roose on the Loose”.
I’m not completely up on what episode specific events happen, but here’s my entry:
501 – Sons Of The Harpy, The
502 – House Of Black And White, The
503 – High Sparrow, The
504 – Sand Snakes, The
505 – Sorrows, The
506 – Lord Of Winterfell, The
507 – Lady Of The Vale
508 – Walk Of Penance: Or (The Unexpected Virtue Of Ignorance)
509 – Fire And Blood
510 – For The Watch
Darren,
I was going to say “Fire and Blood” for 509 too, except it was the S1 finale!
1. Valonqar
2. Black and White
3. The Faith
4. Sons of The Harpy
5. The Sorrows
6. The Fall
7. A Ghost in Winterfell
8. Hardhome
9. Ice and Fire
10. Oathbreaker
Episode 01 – Unbowed, Unbend, Unbroken
Episode 02 – New Bride The
Episode 03 – Lord Commander
Episode 04 – Aegon
Episode 05 – Faith of the Seven
Episode 06 – Blind
Episode 07 – Greyscale
Episode 08 – Cold Winds are Rising The
Episode 09 – One-eyed Kraken The
Episode 10 – Daznaks Pit
Ep. 501 – The Power of Blood
Ep. 502 – The Sword in the Darkness
Ep. 503 – I Am No One
Ep. 504 – The Seven-Pointed Star
Ep. 505 – Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Ep. 506 – Sons of the Harpy
Ep. 507 – A Ghost in Winterfell
Ep. 508 – The Realms of Men
Ep. 509 – Fire Made Flesh
Ep. 510 – The Fall
“Roose on the Loose” sounds like it could be a series of black-humor webisodes chronicling Roose’s romps around the North.
Please make this happen. Someone. I’m not creative enough.
Darren,
Good catch Darren with “Lady of the Vale.” We don’t know what’s happening in that storyline, and it may well be something at some point that deserves an episode title, just like “Mockingbird,” did.
For that matter, I think “The Mountain and the Viper” may have had a double meaning; obviously it referred to the epic fight, but also we had a mountain, (The Eyrie) occupied by a total snake, (Baelish.) and possibly even a snake in training, (Sansa) Or maybe that was just me. Probably just me.
501 – Valonqar, The
502 – Black and White
503 – Lord Crow
504 – Sons of the Harpy
505 – Sorrows, The
506 – A Ghost in Winterfell, A
507 – Fall, The
508 – Dead Things in the Water
509 – Mortal Wound, The
510 – Oathbreaker
Cian,
If they pull a “Your sister” with “For the Watch” I will riot.
Hodor’s Bastard,
Oh please. How people blow that out of proportion! More importantly, how would they “your sister” it? Even if you did try to do it, which I don’t know why you would, I don’t see any way to say it that’s more obvious in any way.
Riothamus,
Good point. Fire And Blood 2: Electric Boogaloo?
Winnie,
I wanted to have one for each of the major storylines and since I have no idea what’s going down in Sansa’s storyline this season, that seemed as vague / epic as anything.
Luka Nieto,
I knew that would bug you! 🙂
“For the Night’s Watch”
“For the Realm”
1 – And Now His Watch Begins.
2 – The House of Black and White.
3 – Sons of the Harpy.
4 – Swords and Stars.
5 – Unbowed. Unbent. Unbroken.
6 – Sorrows.
7 – Hear me Roar.
8 – The Ghost of Winterfell.
9 – A Dance with Dragons.
10 – Winter.
Hodor’s Bastard,
Well, I am a reliable butthurt 😛
Arkash,
Winter. I love it! If they follow the books on that (which could be logistically tricky, to be honest, filming in Croatia and all), I’d love them to make it a big deal, to turn it into a big dramatic moment.
1. Valonqar
2. A Feast for Crows
3. Sons of the Harpy
4. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
5. The Sorrows
6. Oathbreaker
7. The Ghost of Winterfell
8. The Seven Pointed Star
9. A Dance With Dragons
10. Walk of Shame
Arkash,
“Winter” is too spoilerish IMO, it’s the perfect title for 601 though.
Damn, that’s a good one.
Yivo,
I hate when people use book titles for episodes, it’s just so lazy and it’s quite obvious D&D would never do that so I don’t see the point.
OrtMeyer,
First time for everything my easily upset friend.
Also, we seriously accusing people of laziness on a site dedicated to tv show news? Hardly a productive use of time for anyone involved.
Ozymandias,
I would certainly like Winter sometime.
OT, but one good thing about the show getting into winter, means they can continue filming longer in the fall/winter without worrying about snow, and we may get extra episodes in Seasons 6&7!
I’m also thinking sometime in Season 6 or 7, we’ll get “A Time for Wolves,” as an episode title.
Ozymandias,
If they use a title like that for the season six premiere, they might as well use the whole thing, from its source material: “The Winds of Winter” —a great title to follow the events at the end of season five, considering the two main events that are brewing in the North.
here’s mine:
501 – Sons of the Harpy
502 – House of Black & White
503 – A King in the North
504 – The Sand Snakes
505 – If I Look Back, I’m Lost
506 – The Bear & the Lion
507 – A Ghost in Winterfell
508 – Things in the Water
509 – Daznak’s Pit
510 – Daggers in the Dark
Had a thought that The Gift would be a nice title with at least a couple of meanings.
One that could work, and avoids being blatant, is A Sharpened Blade. Considering what we know of Edd, fetch me a block and Daario in Meereen.
SerCountryFriedSteak,
Luka Nieto,
It’s more evocative, but it also makes it too obvious someone’s going to be assassinated. Which would be fine if the final episode has multiple assassinations I suppose.
Luka Nieto,
Cian,
Luka Nieto,
Yivo,
For those who are saying they will use Valonqar…don’t you think that would be better to use
Here are mine:
1 Valonqar
2 The House of Black And White
3 Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
4 The Sorrows
5 The High Sparrow
6 A Ghost in Winterfell
7 The Queenmaker
8 Hardhome
9 A Dance with Dragons
10 The Sword in the Darkness
Ozymandias,
I strongly disagree. I think D&D don’t want fans to wait a year
Dame Pasty,
1. The Hand
2. Him of Many Faces
3. Sparrows
4. Lion in the Sand
5. Sorrows
6. A Ghost in Winterfell
7. Hear Me Roar
8. Hardhome
9. Daznak
10. Exodus
Joey,
Exodus? What is that about?
Hodor’s Bastard,
Why would he get stabbed over your sister?
I’ve been guessing episode 8 as Exodus for a while now as I thought it would be the episode where the wildlings go south of the wall. Since Hardhome seems confirmed to be episode 8 now I moved it to the finale.
Listed in order of likelihood:
Valonquar (premier)
Mercy
Dracarys (Finale)
A Ghost in Winterfell
Hardhome
Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
For the Watch
The Queenmaker
Bronn and Jaime in the Mooorning
Ozymandias,
I think they’ll have Jon assassinated all right this season; but then we’ll see Mel revive him somehow. Yes that would be outpacing the books, but we all know they’re gonna do that anyway this season.
Joey,
Hm. I’d have guessed it would happen before that, not after.
We’ll see! 😉
Winnie,
Use your spoiler tags, man!
I know, this is a spoilery article in nature. Just in case.
How fun is this? Great ideas. I’m stealing a few!
501: Prophesy and Destiny
502: Black and White
503: Wherever Whores Go
504: Sacrifice
505: Ghost of Winterfell, A
506: Queenmaker
507: Words are Wind
508: Hardhome
509: She Walks, She Flies
510: For the Watch
Syrio Fo-real,
🙂
The only episodes I feel like I know enough about to venture a meaningful guess are the first two:
501 – Valonqar (I’d honestly be a bit surprised if this wasn’t the title)
502 – The House of Black and White
Do we know that Arya will not be in episode 1, yet again? I’d love to see her arrive to Braavos in the premiere. Or are people assuming the HoB&W won’t be properly introduced until episode two?
Hodor’s Bastard,
Wherever whores go? How? 😛
1 Valonqar
2 The House of Black And White
3 Faith of the Seven
4 Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
5 Sons of the Harpy
6 A Ghost in Winterfell
7 The Queenmaker
8 Grumpkins, Snarks and other Monsters
9 Dracarys
10 For the Watch
Luka Nieto,
Dame Pasty,
God I hope not….I want Season 5 to end on a high note unlike the past two seasons.
I think Arya will definitely be in Ep. 1. We know Jaime is in KL in Ep. 1, and I’d expect Dorne to be introduced through him and I can’t see them waiting to introduce both Dorne & the House of Black & White until Ep. 2 or later.
Ep 2. Mushrooms in my Pocket
Ep 3. Pickled Aemon
Ep 4. Don’t Tread on Nimble Dick
Ep 5. Bastard Beats a Wench in Winterfell
Ep 6. Who the Fook Keeps Voting for Edd?
Ep 7. Nice Helm, I heard You Were…
Ep 8. Mother Mole’s Last Stand
Ep 9. Nice Teats, Brother Fucker
Ep 10. Something Smells Like Burnt Hair and Diarrhea
Luka Nieto,
Oh…as you know, I’m stuck on that phrase. Plus,
Sean C.,
I agree.
Dame Pasty,
“The North Remembers” sends its regards.
Using titles before their most appropriate time has been done before!
Great topic!
I went with:
1 – House of Black and White
2 – Lord Commander
3 – The Sorrows
4 – Cat of the Canals
5 – Sons of the Harpy
6 – Queenmaker
7 – Faith of the Seven
8 – A Broken Knight
9 – Walk of Shame
10 – The Pit
1) The Valonqar
2) Where do whores go?
3) Vow of honor
4) Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
5) The Broken Man
6) Bael the Bard
7) Last Winter
8) Dead things in the water
9) The Pit
10) Ghost
1. Valonqar
2. Unbowed Unbent Unbroken
3. The Shy Maid
4. Queenmaker
5. A Ghost in Winterfell
6. The North Remembers
7. High Sparrow
8. Only Dragon You Need
9. Blood for Fire
10. For the Watch
Wishful thinking if Aegon, Arianne, and Manderly was in lol
Not sure about my order, but I’m pretty sure these will be in there:
1. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken. House Martell is being introduced, so I think they’ll have the title, “Valonqar” isn’t causual enough for D&D, I think.
-The Faith Militant (Or High Sparrow)
– The Walk Of Shame (or something similar)
-Cat Of The Canals
-Daznak’s Pit (can’t see any other good names for that event)
No idea on names for Sansa’s, Tyrion’s, Jon’s or Reeks storyline. Ghost of Winterfell is too much like Prince of Winterfell, and they might not focus on it (might seem too similar to Jaqen’s murders). Names like Hardhome or any part of the vow just seems like it’s random (although it might be the best we have). Might be For the Watch.
Turncloak,
Ghost. Woah, people keep making up cooler names than “For the Watch.” This may be the best, at least if they followed the books and that was the last piece of dialogue in the scene.
TorbofThrones,
Dorne will be introduced in Episode 2.
Don’t think they’ll use the Where do the whores go. Love the positivity of Bael the Bard thingy being in! I wish I believe it myself. Can’t think of what The Broken Man can refer. What did you have in mind?
I haven’t really looked at any results much yet, but wonder if it will be Valonqar or the field, as they say on Derby Day, as the most-answered for 0501.
Thanks to Sue for doing this!

508 – Walk of Shame
509 – I Fell Into The Pit / Nymeria
510 – Mother
“For The Watch” is a great title, but I also thought “The Shield That Guards The Realms of Men” was cool. They really like “The ___ and The ___” where the blanks are animal nicknames or sigils. So:
1. The Princess and The Frog
2. The Lion and The Arrow
3. The Chicken and Egg
4. The Maid and The Titan
5. The Bear and The Lion
6. Unicorns and Cannibals
7. The Bridge and The Wind
8. Fire and Snow
9. Sapphire and Stone
10. The Sword or The Noose
The Broken Man is a speech given by Septon Meribald in AFFC. http://youtu.be/0sjZHxEZnmE
In the show I can see The High Sparrow giving that speech
Anybody else see the new trailer on HBO? It’s pretty much the same trailer but I did see a few new scenes (not much).
Crap now I forgot mine lets see…
1-Valonqar (Out of all the titles this one seems like one of the most likely because it has multiple meanings.)
2-Swords and Stars (There has to be a faith militant related title)
3-The Sorrows (Again could have a lot of meanings and fits with timeline)
4-Queenmaker
5- Sons of the Harpy (This is definitely the most likely title if I had to put money on a title this is the one I’d bet on)
6-Cat of the Canals
7-Darksister (based on the Targaryan sword and Sansa/Arya?)
8-Dead Things (In the water seems like its too wordy and wont be able to have multiple meanings)
9-Unbent, Unbowed Unbroken (I think this is a good title considering the events we know will happen)
10- The Sword in the Darkness (Could be extra fitting if we get the line “Sword!” fingers crossed)
They’ve used both “Valar Morghulis” and “Valar Dohaeris” already, so “Valonqar” isn’t out of place.
Turncloak,
Oh, I know that speech. I love that speech! Somehow I never knew that’s the name for it. Considering how HS is portrayed in the books, some version of it might work actually. The Lord of Light and The Hound part won’t be in. (Voice sounds like NWC)
Haha we’ll see! I think it makes an epic title regardless 🙂
JJames,
A new(-ish) trailer? Really? Wouldn’t have we known about it?
Turncloak,
Hadn’t considered that the Broken Man speech could be delivered outside of Brienne’s storyline, but of course it could, and the High Sparrow may make sense. I hope it’s included. It doesn’t have to be in Season 5, to be honest —it could’ve been in any of the past seasons and it can be in the last two. I just wanna hear it.
Greatjon of Slumber,
some more
“Dude, where are my dragons?”
“Well? Is it rape or not?” (alternate title: Rape-gate)
“Serving frey-pies with 3 fingers”
Felt Pelt,
“Mayhaps”! Awesome title.
Another title I would like to see is “Near enough to make no matter” x)
JJames,
What new scenes did you see?
1. The Lion, the Frog, and the Spider
2. No One
3. Sparrow
4. And Now His Watch Begins
5. Dude, Where’re My Greyjoys?
6. Queenmaker
7. Bread and Salt
8. The Sword in the Darkness
9. First of Her Name
10. For the Realm
I made a point of submitting before reading the comments, but some of you have much better ideas than me. Let’s wait and see.
Bosk,
No One. Another cool title I don’t think anyone has suggested. Much better than any of the other ones related to Arya —”Cat of the Canals”, “The House of Black and White.” “No One” is more evocative, me thinks.
1. Valonqar
2. The House Of Black And White
3. The Warriors Sons
4. And Now His Watch Begins
5. Unbowed,Unbent,Unbroken
6. The Sons Of The Harpy
7. A Ghost In Winterfell
8. The Long Night
9. The Walk
10. For The Watch
JJames,
Where did you see it? I can’t seem to find it on their main page.
OK so I took some great suggestions and tried to add my own.
1 – Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
2 – Faceless
3 – The High Sparrow
4 – Sons of the Harpy
5 – The Sorrows
6 – Ghost in Winterfell
7 – The Faith
8 – Ice
9 – Fire
10 – Sacrifice
I am betting 5×09 is ‘The Mortal Art’
The mortal art, thought Dany.
She had seen the fighting pits many times from her terrace.”
The new trailer was on HBO go. I played the new episode of Girls and it came on before the episode aired. There was different music playing. I swear there are a few added scenes. But I could be wrong. Someone watch it and let me know
House Ray,
Like No One, I like Faceless. I do like The Sorrows that many have suggested as well. Good stuff.
The sparrow and the mockingbird.
1. Valonqar
2. The House of Black and White
3. Sons of the Harpy
4. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
5. The Sorrows
6. Cat of the Canals
7. A Ghost in Winterfell
8. Hardhome
9. Daznak
10. Blood of the Dragon
Don’t worry, I remembered to put “The” and “A” at the end of the relevant entries when I was filling out the actual survey. It just looks strange when it’s actually typed out that way.
JJames,
Can someone confirm this?
Maybe it’s a rearrangement of the trailer? Was it shorter? Did any new scene stand out? You said a couple new ones, a few times now, but you haven’t specified. Nothing specific jumps to mind, at all?
This seems really strange to me.
I stand corrected. It’s not a new trailer. Just a rearranged one from earlier. The song is different. I thought I saw a few new scenes of Hardhome but after rewatching the original, they were all ready shown. I apologize. It kinda threw me off, as I had not seen or heard anything about a different trailer
Luka Nieto,
JJames,
Well, plenty of people complained about the song, so hey, maybe at least this version will be better received.
… I want a new trailer, tho 😛
1. Valonqar
2. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
3. Lord Commander
4. The Sons of the Harpy
5. The Queenmaker
6. The Faith Militant
7. A Pit of Vipers
8. The Ghost in Winterfell
9. A Dance With Dragons
10. Daggers in the Dark
I think the titles below are likely:
501 – Where do Griffins go?
502 – Lord of Winterfell
503 – The High Sparrow
504 – Charlie’s Angels
505 – Sweetrobin, I am your mother.
506 – DEEPWOOD MOTTE
507 – Cat of the Canals
508 – Hardhome
509 – Where are my dragons?
510 – Surprise, Meryn Fucking Trant.
When will the official names be out?
OrtMeyer,
I’ve always thought that ever since reading that chapter 🙂
Valonqar
The Sword in the Darkness
Sparrows and Stone Men
Sons of the Harpy
No One
The Fall
A Ghost in Winterfell
A Feast for Crows
The Dragon and the Lion
Night Gathers
Just general ideas, in no real order. I don’t know when specific events are supposed to happen. SPOILERS
1. Wow, a Flashback? That’s New
2. Arya Takes The Whole Hit-Girl Thing To A New Level
3. Dorne is Awesome, But Where Is Arianne And Why is Jaime Here
4. Janos Slynt Totally LOSES His MIND (Ba-dum tsss)
5. Tyrion And Jorah Are The New Jaime and Brienne
6. Maybe It’s Not Too Late For Lady Stoneheart (It Probably Is)
7. Are You There, Gods? It’s Me, Theon
8. Episode Where None Of This Shit Happened In The Books
9. Lena Headey Is The Last Cast Member To Get Naked, But It’s Really Messed Up
10. Et Tu, Bowen?
Already gave some titles that I thought might be in, but after thinking about the books some more, this is probably more likely:
501 Words are Wind
502 A Highborn Maid of Three-and-Ten, With a Fair Face and Auburn Hair
503 More Useless Than Nipples on a Breastplate
504 Tyrion Waddles
505 A Highborn Maid of Three-and-Ten, With a Fair Face and Auburn Hair, Have You Seen Her?
506 Words are Wind
507 Tyrion Waddles Some More
508 No Seriously, I’m Looking For My Sister, A Highborn Maid of Three-and-Ten, With a Fair Face and Auburn Hair. Please For the Love of the Gods Tell Me If You’ve Seen Her?
509 Tyrion Keeps Waddling
510 Words are Wind
Mine were:
501. Black and White
502. And Now His Watch Begins
503. High Sparrow, The/or Sparrows/or Warrior’s Sons, The
504. Sand Snakes, The
505. Sorrows
506. Sons of the Harpy, The
507. Ghost in Winterfell, The
508. Queenmaker(s)
509. Pits, The
510. Winter Has Come/or Winter is Here/or (unlikely) Winds of Winter, The
1 – Freedom

5 – Nobody, I am
6 – Queenmaker
7 – Ghost of Winterfell, The
8 – Hardhome
9 – Walk of Punishment, The
10 – Daznak’s Pit
Episodes 501-510: “I’m On a Boat”
Should keep the purists happy.
Cumsprite,
Only one season?
Whenever I see someone suggest “The Pit” as an episode title I think of Andy Dwyer.
Season Five ends with a cliffhanger, obviously.
Luka Nieto,
Yeah I can see what they’re talking about when I view Girls on HBOGo right now. The music on the trailer there is some generic classical trailer music, not memorable – doesn’t sound like Djawadi. Placeholder stuff. All the same footage. Not sure why they switched it.
Luka Nieto,
The footage is all the same, but am I crazy or does it look a bit more color corrected? Looks like the blues are a bit richer and contrast more with the orange/red/yellows.

That one got to me. Cool. I can see the snow falling heavily during FtW. That’s gonna be an amazing and quite distressing scene, followed by “Winter” by the Rolling Stones during the end credits, with the white snow turning red. 🙂
The new trailer music is infinitely better. It isn’t perfect like The Foreshadowing, but what is? Heroes was too loud, cheesy, and distracting. It’s the worst cover since Sigur Ros. The instrumental is subtle and dramatic and gets me excited for things to come.
The Lion Lord,
I really like “Snowfall”
I decided to stop reading through the thread, because I like so many of the titles, the more I read, the more my own titles escape my mind. I would give almost anything for an episode entitled “Fat Pink Mast!!!” I also love “The Roose is Loose,” in part because then there could be a subsequent episode, one where Roose meets Dany, and it could be called “The Roose, the Roose, the Roose is on Fire (we don’t need no water let the motherfucker burn…)”
I also can’t keep track, or don’t entirely know, what is going ot be in each episode, so my incomplete list:
Episode 1 – Golden Shroud, The
Episode 2 – Faceless Man, The
Episode 3 – Viper’s Nest, The
Episode 4 –
Episode 5 –
Episode 6 –
Episode 7 –
Episode 8 – Night’s King, The
Episode 9 – Dracarys ~or~ Penance
Episode 10 – For the Watch (it has to be)
I know you said it’s ok to leave some blank, but I feel a bit lame leaving 4 of them blank, I just don’t know/can’t guess/remember what’s supposed to happen in those.
Rygritte,
For the second trailer I really hope they will use something along the lines of “Seven Devils” and “Bones” that’s the type of song that suits the show best.
“Jetta – I’d Love To Change The World” would have been great but it’s overused now.

I just don’t see them using any of the book titles for their episodes, like A Feast for Crows or A Dance with Dragons. They have gone four seasons without using them; I can’t see them starting now.
deekan,
Yeah they’ve never used any book titles in GAME OF THRONES
Also as much as the “Valonqar” to describe that one character is awesome in the books, I am not so sure the show will want to spend much time focusing on teaching people what that word means. Valar Morgulis is pretty essential to multiple story lines, but that character won’t share this information with a single person which is why they need a flashback. Though it is possible the word Valonqar could show up, I doubt they would make it the title. I think Black and White is much more likely for the first episode, because it could be more applicable to multiple story lines. But it would be awesome.
Colty,
That is not a title of an episode, is it?
When season 7 gets a second half lets say split into two sets of 7 episodes they should do all the book titles for the last 7 episodes
Crabber’s Son,
That would be pretty funny XD
deekan,
Valonqar is a sibling i think it can be either brother or sister thats younger. So it can be describing a lot of people since the first episode will feature the scene its used some arya moments, something with tommen, dany etc. It applies to a lot of people.
I will just put what I did on afoiaf a few weeks ago…
1. Valonqar
2. Unbowed
3. Sparrow
4. No One
5. The Sorrows
6. Oathbreaker
7. Queenmaker
8. Hardhome
9. The Pit
10. Ghost
I like em short!
I really only feel confidant in guessing Valonqar for the premiere and Hardhome for 508. Though we have a pretty decent idea of what will be happening when in some of the storylines, beyond those two, I don’t know what will be focused upon enough to merit naming the episodes after other than those two parts of 501 and 508.
Every year there are a few ep. titles that fans were able to guess and a few that no one could’ve come up with. A ton of fans guessed “the Mountain and the Viper” last year for instance or “the Watchers on the Wall” or “Breaker of Chains” but no one suggested “Two Swords” or “the Children”. So I imagine some of what’s been said here will come to fruition and some won’t make as much sense until we see the eps. themselves.
Crabber’s Son,
Yeah, I mean it is totally possible as a title, but because of
But it IS possible, maybe even likely. Though I am leaning towards thinking that they might just say younger sibling, which would be lame, but that is just what I think.
deekan,
Mhysa was also an episode title and the meaning never been mentioned till the last scene of that episode.

ace,
Yeah…but she had a translator to convey the meaning to the audience. Once again, it is totally possible that Maggy could translate the word. I just don’t see it as likely, and even if they do, there is still the difference between the word being mentioned on the show and it being the title of the episode. It is possible, but I believe the first episode will also have
And if I had to chose between those two, I personally think Black and White is more likely as a title–but not the house of black and white because that would narrow the meaning down to a single character arc.

I am pretty sure that the rumored episode in which “Sansa does something important” should be called “Hour of the Wolf.” Due only to my suspicion about what that thing might be and when it might take place.
Wow, awesome. Source please?
Hype train engaged.
My bet is that none of these predictions will be correct!
Beyond that, I have no clue.
Oh, fun fact if not already mentioned: the writers have explained that they actually name the episodes very late in production. So when the cast gets a script that says “Episode 501” that isn’t because the name is a secret – it’s just because they haven’t picked one yet.
Luka Nieto,
I do agree, I do not understand why people think that there was any difference (save in clarity for the audience). There was not.
A Feast for Crows
The Seven-Pointed Star
No One
Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
The Sorrows
A Ghost in Winterfell
Where Whores Go
Cold Winds Rising
Daznak
The Winds of Winter
This is my guess for now, though the last one may be giving too much away, and Episode 9 could do with a more badass name. At the same time, the
probable lack of fAegon makes the Sorrows less impactful. Also considering we don’t know what’s up with Sansa she may get a title.On a different note, definitely think “For the Watch” is happening. This is because of Hardhome playing a major part, and it being an exciting way to end the season. In fact they could troll us Sullied even by including some of the aftermath. This is also supported by the casting of Bowen Marsh and even Kit Harrington’s haircut. Definitely something for the season finale. The Walk of Shame is probably going to be in the finale also, but could conceivably be in episode 8 due to balance. Who knows what’s going on with Brienne and Sansa…

Ricardo777,
Kit’s haircut means nothing. There’s been photos comparing his hair with post-season 1 and 2 hair, and it looks the same.
509 – The Mortal Art / Fire Made Flesh. One of those, can’t decide.
My best guesses:
1. Legacy
2. The wall is yours
3. Cat of the canals
4. Silence
5. Queenmaker
6. The Merman’s court
7. Oathbreaker
8. Atonement
9. The Dragon and the Harpy
10. Little Birds
Not sure if anyone posted this already and is awaiting moderation, but here’s a little teaser from Anthrax on their song for Catch the Throne. Scott mentions The Mountain, so I guess the song will be about him.
1 – the house of black and white
2 – The seven pointed star
3 – 998
4 – Unbowed unbent unbroken
5 – the pleasure houses of Lys
6 – Queenmaker
7 – lamprey
8 – hard home
9 – Walk of punishment
10 – Dazhnak’s pit
If it follows the books
1) Where do whores go? Part 1
2) Where do whores go? Part 2
3) Where do whores go? Part 3
4) – 9) etc etc
10) Where the fuck did my story go?
Hoping one of the episodes is called “Egg”, just some nice fan service 🙂 and so I can cry already before hand (if the pyre in the trailer is what I think it is).
Sorry to ask, but what about his haircut?
Fat Pink Mast is all the rage, yet no love for Myrish Swamp? No fair.
As an Unsullied fan, I just can think of a few that might come up.
In no order:
House of Black and White
Snakes of the Viper
The Lion, The Spider, and The Dragon
A Stark Heart (no not Lady Stoneheart appearing, but imo Sansa will share a few of her storyline)
Ozymandias,
Really? I must have forgotten, how do we know they’re not in ep1? There’s more than me that’s put them on #1.
Obviously there are 9.) Hear Me Roar and 10.) The Night is Dark
“Kill the boy” should be one.
Waxfoot,
Good one!
As someone has pointed out before, I’m sure we’ll guess a few of them, while others will be completely new. Let’s think back to Season 4: “The Lion and the Rose”, “Breaker of Chains”, “Oathkeeper”, “Mockingbird”, “The Mountain and the Viper”, “The Watchers on the Wall” —all of them were guessed to be episode titles at one point or another, before they were announced. A few others were not, however: “Two Swords”, “First of His Name”, “The Laws of Gods and Men”, “The Children.” The same goes for previous seasons. So, we may guess a few (in my opinion, suggestions such as “Valonqar” and “Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken” or “The Dornishman’s Wife” may make the cut), but I’m sure there’ll be some surprises still that none of us have managed to guess. I’m eager to see what the polls show, and even more eager to learn the true titles, which I hope we’ll have (at least some of them) soon enough.
My guesses:
1-Valanqar
2-Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
3-Sons of the Harpy
4-Cat of a Different Coat, A
5-Sorrows
6-Oathbreaker
7-Ghost in Winterfell, A
8-Hardhome
9-Lion and the Dragon, The
10-For the Watch
Balerion The Cat,
Everyone’s suggesting Oathbreaker, which is a nice parallel to Oathkeeper, but what is it referring to? Most people place it around the middle of the season. Am I missing something?
1) Bloody Frog, The
2) Cunt’s Needle, The
3) Sparrow is high, The
4) Speared Pussies on the Sand, The
5) Pixie in the Ruined City, The
6) North barks again, The
7) Every slave needs its master
8) Harlot’s promenade
9) Towhead, puke my fire back
10) Frozen birdbrain, The
1) The Valonqar
2) No one
3) The Sparrows
4) The Ghost in Winterfell
5) The Sand Snakes
6) The Stinking Rose
7) Nymeria
8) Hardhome
9) The Walk
10) The Brothers
yes, words are wind.
Luka Nieto,
Not really, I didn’t know what to use for episode 6 and I thought that something like Oathbreaker could work. I don’t know what will happen with Brienne in season 5, but I thought that
Yours were the only entries that made me properly guffaw, especially Number 7 *furiously applauds*
Kudos to those who made me laugh out loud. These are brilliant…
Greatjon of Slumber,

Greg,

Luka Nieto,
I thought people using it for 509 or 510 were referring to Jon’s last chapter (pink letter and consequences) and Brienne (“SWORD!”) and maybe another storyline I can’t make the connection with…
LOL Excellent title but I think
5.01 – The Prophecy (or Valonqar)
5.02 – The Sand Snakes
5.03 – Swords and Stars
5.04 – The Sorrows
5.05 – Faceless
5.06 – The Queenmaker
5..07 – Sons of the Harpy
5.08 – Daggers in the Dark
5.09 – Walk of Atonement
5.10 – Winds from the North
It’s just plain weird to see episode titles for 509 that totally ignore that it involves
The only walk in this episode will be to get aboard and tell a certian zaldrīzes “sōvegon”.
When will the episode titles me announced?
Just thought of “The Prince that was Promised” for ep10 – or would that be more appropriate for S6?
1. I shall wear no crowns
2. The House of black and white
3. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
4. Mother Rhoyne
5. Princess of Thornes
6. A King for a dragon
7. Hardhome
8. The Ghost of Winterfell
9. The Walk
10. A bear and a dwarf so fair

If those become episode titles…. I’ll join the Night’s Watch!!
Damn! I have already!! The choice was tough? Not really. An eternity of hearing Golden Oldies Radio (mostly playing Elvis) or taking The Black? Which would you choose?
Laura,
Thanks! That was my hope too.
Rygritte,
We could be HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOES. We could be HEEEEEEEROOOES.
I always hope for titles taken from memorable book phrases rather than leaning too heavily on place names/house words. Wishing for “Fire Made Flesh” for Daznak and “And Now My War Begins” for Hardhome.

There’s a new pic of Arya on HBO.com
zod,
Where exactly? Can’t find it.
If you mean the pic of Arya with Needle on an alley, it’s not new.
Luka Nieto,
Not entirely sure this is new actually, since I haven’t been following the news as frequently as previous years, but…on HBO.com just click on the GOT thumbnail below. They used it as a background for their GOT page.
Ha! My bad.
Episode 3 of season 5 has now gone from a runtime of 57min to 59min on the hbo latino schedule. 😀
http://www.hbolatino.com/apps/schedule/ScheduleServlet?ACTION_DETAIL=DETAIL&FOCUS_ID=776459
I don’t have the numbers but isn’t this the longest non-premiere/finale episode?
EDIT: The Pointy End was also 59 mins
Balerion The Cat,
Yeap, excluding premieres and finales, only 1×08 and 3×07 were so long. This and the previously released running times bode well for the season, don’t they? Hopefully it will be the longest one yet!
We already know about half the season, so maybe we can extrapolate and assume the latter half is just as long, and see if that makes it the longest season yet. Does anyone have the list of the five episodes we know about? It was around here, in a recent article…
Luka Nieto,
I just realised that so far, runtimes shown on HBO Latino (episode 1 and 2 of season 5) are 1 min shorter than the ones on HBO.com, so that would make episode 3, 60 mins , 1 min longer than The Pointy End and The Bear and The Maiden Fair.
So yeah, hopefully the rest of the episodes follow the trend 😀
Balerion The Cat,
Oh, and it’s episode 3. I misread it as episode 5. So we only know the runtime of 3 episodes, okay. I was imagining things.
Daggers in the dark Should be up there.
Very fun idea, guys; thanks! I used a lot of ideas from others, and added a few of my own (I like 6, 9 and 10 the best):
1. Valonqar
2. Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
3. The House of Black and White
4. Sons of the Harpy
5. The Sorrows
6. He Who Passes the Sentence
7. Queenmaker
8. For the Realm
9. When the Sun Sets in the East
10. Penance
A Man Grown, Beyond bad.
It’s most appropriate for Jaqen’s return episode. 7 sighs.
I have no idea how the story is going to be played out so how can I possibly guess?
I’d love to do this, though, and will not let it deter me:
1: Yay! Boobs are Back!
2: Where do Dwarves Go?
3: Arya takes a Bath
4: Varys, the Early Years
5: Heaven knows I’m Miserable Now: Jon Snow Returns
6: More Boobs.
7: Dany and the Handmaid’s Tale
8: Llamas on the Loose!
9: Troll in the Dungeon!
10: Sansa Gone Wild
Otherwise known as “A Dress of Black and Blue”
I’d expect one in their about ‘queens’ or ‘Her Grace’, given we’ve got Cersei, Margaery, Daenerys
501 – Valonqar
502 – Him of Many Faces
503 – Snow
504 – The Seven Pointed Star
505 – The Lion and The Bear
506 – Unbowed. Unbent. Unbroken.
507 – Turncloak
508 – Hear Me Roar
509 – A Dance with Dragons
510 – Mercy
I think For the Watch will be episode 1 or 2 of season 6
The Valonqar
Black and White
The Whispers
Cat of the Canals
The Queenmaker
The Choosing
A Ghost in Winterfell
Atonement
A Dragon Rises
For the Watch
My opinions:
Episode 1: Valonqar
Episode 2: Snakes
Episode 3: The New Lord
Episode 4: Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Episode 5: The Sons of the Harpy
Episode 6: Faceless
Episode 7: The mummer’s Farse
Episode 8: Hadhome
Episode 9: Daznak’s Pit
Episode 10: The true queens
Dont know which episode these will be, but a few I dig and based on what they’ve done in the past.
The Lion and The Bear
The Dragon and the Harpy
Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Sparrows
Sorrows
The Living and The Dead (maybe a bit to spoilerish for EP8)
Hardhome
Lord Commander
Offerings (EP 1, Stannis to Jon, Varys to Tyrion, Cersei to Kevan)
Words Are Wind
http://www.zap2it.com/blogs/game_of_thrones_season_4_first_four_episode_titles_with_explanations-2014-03
We got the first 4 episode titles for last season on March 3. And we also got the first S4 poster on February 27. Since we got the poster for S5 on the same date this year could that mean we’ll probably start getting official episode titles this week? One can hope.
I have no imagination whatsoever, but here goes. . .
Prophecy
A Cat Of Many Faces
Spiderwebs
Sand And Fog
A Test Of Faith
The Queenmaker
Dark Sister
In The Woods Somewhere
Catching Fire
Heart Of Stone
(I know, these are terrible. . .)
Flora Linden,
In the woods somewhere lol xD
Dutch maester,
Heh, I couldn’t resist. I love that Hozier song from the international DVD trailer. And the characters do run around in the woods, so I think it’s fitting.
🙂
I won’t bore you with why but I’m hoping giant penguins are what Jon was looking aghast at in the clip that will presumably be during ep 8. Adding llamas to the mix would be even better! Apparently they are known for spitting and I reckon they’d be dirty fighters. Maybe Hardhome has somehow gained a zoo and the animals get loose. They’ve got more budget now, it’s do-able.
Not sure about number 3, haven’t people said the HBO listing specifically doesn’t mention nudity or violence? Arya Takes A Bath Fully Clothed and Doesn’t Even Get Cross With Anyone possibly? Not that snappy but you can’t have everything! ;O)
Loving the Roose on the loose/on fire and Fire And Blood 2: Electric Boogaloo too, so thumbs up for everyone involved there. Sorry, can’t contribute anything remotely serious, although someone did have “Atonement” which I like as it could mean lots of things and isn’t too spoilery.
Surely, you mean of White and Gold…
I have enjoyed reading these submissions. Here are my guesses:
1. Death is Here Tonight
2. The Kindly Man
3. The Choosing
4. The Prince of Dorne
5. Journey of Sorrows
6. Turncloak
7. Vengeance, Justice, Fire and Blood
8. An Unholy Place
9. The Lioness
10.The Pit
I’d also like to submit an alternative title, as a follow up to the tumultuous events in Daznak’s Pit:
Ep. 510 – Squirting From Both Ends
This is always fun to do – my submissions:
Episode 01 – Valonqar.
Episode 02 – House of Black and White, The.
Episode 03 – And Now His Watch Begins
Episode 04 – Unbow, Unbent, Unbroken
Episode 05 – Sons of the Harpy
Episode 06 – Ghost of Winterfell, The.
Episode 07 – Seven-Pointed Star, The.
Episode 08 – Hardhome
Episode 09 – Hear Me Roar
Episode 10 – For the Watch.
I know some of those were mentioned already, but still, here is my attempt:
Cat of the Canals
Pit of Snakes, The
Sons Of The Harpy, The
Faith of the Sparrow
Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken
Ghost in Winterfell, A
Queenmaker, The
For the Watch
Dance with Dragons, A
Mercy
EDIT: only after submitting did I notice that Davos’ Finger Bones already posted E9 as “Dance with Dragons, A”, I though of that one independently. I think it would make a great E9 title.
This is so fun! 🙂 Glad to see I had the some of the same titles as others. And some hilarious ones!! It’s really a shame about Fire and Blood already being used though.
Jaime’s girl,
Right?? It’d be perfect and it’d have two explicit uses within the same episode (Doran, Dany), among plenty of metaphorical ones.
Is that true or you’re just guessing?
North Remembers really shouldn’t have been used back in S2. I still can’t get over that.
Im’ definitely scoring:
501: Across the Narrow Sea.
502: The 998th
503: Sunspear
504: The House of Black and White
505: Sons of the Harpy
506: The Militant Faith Uprising
507: The Queenmaker
508: Hardhome
509: Faceless
510: The Winter
Hear me roar, bitches.
1. A Golden Shroud
2. The Demon Road
3. Little Birds
4. Growing Strong
5. Clash of Queens
6. A Cat of a Different Coat
7. A Castle Made of Snow
8. Lord Commander
9. To Pass beneath the Shadow
10. The Sunset Kingdom
I would like to see an episode titled, “The Rat Cook”, starring Lord Too Fat.
Edited: Way late on this one! I see 4 other posts referencing this.
Ha! Exactly!
This was a lot of fun! I started looking at old episode names to try to see themes in how they’re named. The first season has several which are lines said in that episode, the second has many with well known phrases from the books, the third and forth are more about one certain event happening that episode.
Here are my guesses. Pretty much all of them are shameless steals. I put lot of thought into which ones i should steal though and for which episode.
S5E01: Valonqar
S5E02: Faith
S5E03: And Now his Watch Begins
S5E04: Sons of the Harpy
S5E05: Unbowed Unbent Unbroken
S5E06: A Ghost in Winterfell
S5E07: Hear me Roar
S5E08: Hardhome
S5E09: The Lion and the Dragon
S5E10: Oathbreaker
For Hear me Roar: that is such a lame house word that I hope they use it for whatever episode Cersei goes to mock Margaery and then herself gets arrested.
I enjoyed reading through everyones suggestions. Some that I didn’t see fitting this season but definitely should be episode titles at some point are Winter, The Fall, Hour of the Wolf.
As people have posted we will only get some of them even with all of us guessing. There are sure to be certain themes or lines that we can’t predict which makes it into episode names. So far we’ve had some pretty unpredictable ones: Cripples Bastards and Broken Things, The Night Lands, Garden of Bones, Walk of Punishment, Mhysa, Two Swords, First of his name, The Laws of Gods and Men, The Children for example.
Greatjon of Slumber,
Awesome. 😀
I used spoiler marking on part of my post but they aren’t there.
501 – Someone dies in the first 5 minutes, but later there is nudity, Yeah!
502 – Someone is going to die soon; Also more nudity.
503 – Someone unimportant dies, who wasn’t supposed to; Fans rejoice.
504 – Someone important dies, who wasn’t supposed to… Booooooo.
505 – I swear I am going to stop watching this show next week.
506 – What the hell is Jon Snow doing in Hardhome?
507 – Its getting cold in here… well actually everywhere…

How could an episode called ‘Oathbreaker’ not include LS?
A version based on things fans may not expect:
1 Three Dicks
2 Beheaded by a Topless Woman

10 Wait, How Is She Alive?? WTF???!?!??!???
No nudity in episode 2 according to the HBO schedule ahaha
smitzzz,
Nor in 503. And there isn’t any violence in 503 either.
First post, and just a wild stab.
501 Dress You Up.
502 Material Girl
503 La Isla Bonita
504 Papa Don’t Preach
505 Luck Star
506 Burning Up
507 Crazy For You
508 Who’s That Girl
509 Frozen
510 Miles Away
Why do people put “The” or “A” at the end instead at the beginning ? I swear it’s so fucking annoying especially when you know the episodes are not going to be called like that,i’m not a native english speaker,so is it an American or British or both things or what ?
Cihan123,
Read the instructions in the article:
It’s for the purposes of organization.
I can’t believe no-one has doubled my ‘Kill the boy’ suggestion. Or even followed with a ‘…Let the man be born’ for an episode 10 title. Or you could have ‘Kill the boy’ ep 10 and ‘Let the man be born’ for ep 1 of s6!
Anyway, enough of how great my ideas are. I liked some of the tongue in cheek suggestions. I genuinely like clk’s idea of ‘Mummer’s farce’ – though I did initially read this as ‘Mummer’s fart’, as in “Brienne and Pod will be… Oh who gives a mummer’s fart!”
Also has anybody made any onomatopoeic suggestions – like “Thrum!” Just occurred to me… I’m sure there are others. GRRM loves it.
How about “all hail the royal teats” for episode 9?
I now can’t actually remember the 10th one I guessed… In no particular order:
– No One
– Protector
– Dreams & Dust
– Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken
– Sons of the Harpy
– The Ghost of Winterfell
– Fall From Grace
-A Feast For Crows
– A Sword in the Darkness
That’s probably lacking a Tyrion based one so gonna just say “Hear Me Roar” for the 10th . There is probably too many Jon/Cersei ones there as well :/
Hodor’s Bastard,
Yeah, I can definitely see that being the ending scene for the season.
Ozymandias,

Well, if the leaked titles are indeed true, that is.
I hold my hands up gov , caught out lol others got at least a couple of them way before me anyways ahah
Azor Oh Hi!,
Amending 5.10 to also include “For the Watch” as a strong candidate.
Ep 9- the queens road
Grand maester giz,
The Queen’s Road. That’s really good, actually! Fits perfectly for Cersei, and Dany to an extent, if their respective “big events” this season are happening in episode 9, which I’m pretty sure is the case. Also a nice parallel to 1×02, “The Kingsroad.” Bravo! I only hope D&D, Cogman and Dave Hill have come up with equally inventive titles.
Hey Mr. Rivers,
Are you also going to recognize people who guessed many titles correctly, but not necessarily in the correct order? Because that would be pretty cool.
-He is at rest
-Sun and Spear
-Valonqar
-Poor Fellows
-Queen of love and beauty
-Him of Many Faces
-Vengeance, Justice. Fire and Blood
-Kingmaker, The
-No One.
-Snow
🙂
I am late, and i know it: the first three titles most likely revealed, i start with episode four:
4 – Jousting
5 – The Prince of Winterfell
6 – No One
7 – Walk of Atonement
8 – Marriages
9 – Lord Commander
10 – The Pit
Valar morghulis!
Well, actually that was the titles I wanted when I finished the book and people told me about the season 5:
1. Stone Heart
2. Lord Commander
3. The Queenmaker
4. Many-Faced God
5. The Pale Mare
6. Dreams and Dust
7. Turncloak
8. Walk of Atonement
9. Mother of Dragons
10. Daggers In The Dark (my favorite)
Brian,
Usernames weren’t associated with the replies in Polldaddy, so there’s no easy way to do that, if I am reading your question right!
