Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 3 Recap: “The High Sparrow”

We start this week’s episode with Arya (I feel like this is going to happen a lot this season), who is finally inside the House of Black and White, and apparently it’s weird in there. It turns out that her inspiring journey now mainly includes sweeping the floors (very Karate Kid) and witnessing some weird… Read more »
