Theon’s Superpower

Published August 28, 2017 · Updated July 6, 2022

New listener here and I’m loving it! You guys give great insights and usually say exactly what I thought during the show, but I gotta say I don’t agree with you guys about Theon’s scene. His story line has been a bit ignored, but that scene in the finale was a beautiful display of where his path has taken him. He started out not knowing who he was and he was just followed for his name. He didn’t have real respect and what little power he had he abused and lost. He was barely even human for awhile there but now that he’s made the choice to use whatever shreds of humanity he has left to do the right thing, his “superpower” is revealed to him. And it’s not just not having a dick, it’s that he knows he can take whatever comes at him next because it won’t be worse than what he’s already endured. That realization can make any human powerful and I totally appreciated that scene.

Thanks!
