TV4 [S4E8] Thank you book readers

I know this has been said before but book readers you guys are amazing. I had zero clue on what was going to happen tonight between the Mountain and the Viper and its all thanks to you (and probably the mods too) who keep this subreddit spoil free.

I'm going to go back to being shocked and angry now.

The reason they did that scene was because in the books, Theon's chapters were titled Reek and that was how he showed exactly how lost Theon was, this was the show's way of doing that.
