Jaime's loses his hand and his will to live. Brienne helps him restore one of the two. Jaime returns the favor by sparing Brienne from rape. The pair end up in Harrenhal, where Roose Bolton has Jaime's wound tended to. Simon and Mackelly grab the smelling salts.

Chapter Review:
Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth are in the custody of the Brave Companions. Jaime has lost his right hand. His sword hand. He's sick from the infection in the wound. He wants to die but Brienne reminds him of his reasons for living: his family and revenge.
The pair are taken to Harrenhal. Jaime can't help but think of the irony. Harrenhal is where he was given his white cloak. Now he returns injured, sick, and helpless. The two are paraded in front of Lord Roose Bolton. Vargo Hoat explains his plan for Jaime. Brienne explains how she and Bolton are on the same side and so he should let her continue on her assigned mission.
Roose sends Jaime and Brienne to private chambers and has Jaime's wound attended to. Jaime insists Qyburn keep his arm intact and just clean the wound. Qyburn tells Jaime of the events of the Battle of the Blackwater. Jaime asks that Qyburn check in on Brienne's wounds as well.
