ow the writers have told us before that its not a good idea to take the villains word at face value although as Obi-wan would counsel what they say is the truth from a certain point of view. For all we know George may have thought he and his wife’s lives were blissful but in reality his wife may have been miserable and rather than continue she fabricates a fiction about a potion rendering her barren and is cast off while in actuality she’s pregnant and when George discovers the deception he kills her. Kurosawa’s rashomon effect as ever, Snow believed she had Excalibur didn’t she?
George could be a bit on an unreliable narrator. He’s not exactly at top of the “good” guy list. And people change their own personal history if it gives them a better light. (I saw what I saw and I did what I did–but not according to the other guy) (excellent Rashomon referece btw)
I am very interested to learn more about Robin’s family now.
