First off, seeing names like Raistlin and Rand al Thor in the thread is making the book nerd in me happy...

I watched a vid (Dusty Wheel I think) where the guy put forth that theory of Perrin's wife being a darkfriend... and I gotta say I like it. Would explain her strange / annoyed looking behavior before the attack. Went back and watched and she certainly had the hammer raised -

its definitely not the craziest WoT theory I've read before. Plus that would give him some additional reasoning to get over his guilt if he finds out that she was on the other team

Agreed. Saw the Dusty Wheel live stream thing as well, was really fun.

Yeah, Leila's behavior made no sense even before the attack. Perrin goes to the forge and hugs her, she seems completely disinterested. Then he tells her he loves her, and she does not say it back, I think she just says "I know."

But again, for this to make sense and be worthwhile, we would have to have flashbacks to further explore their relationship.

Yeah, at first I assumed she was just getting ready to attack another trolloc, but the only one left in there just had his brain bashed in by Perrin. So, it didn't really make sense for her to have the hammer raised unless she was about to kill Perrin.

I guess you could argue that the director ha her in that position so she could clearly get stabbed in the stomach.
