** Played more for awesomeness in ''The Dragon and the Wolf''. Theon's crew refuses to follow him, and one of them attacks him to prove he's too cowardly to be Ironborn.

Theon uses the momentary distraction to gain the upper hand. [[Note:This isn't at all realistic, as even without his genitals Theon would still have nerve endings and a urethral opening (he still has to pee after all) meaning that his groin would still be extremely painful to be kicked in.]]
