I really liked the Jon/Arya reunion because it was a classic case of reality never lives up to fantasy. We built this thing up in our heads, but as soon as Jon asked if she had ever had to use her sword, you realize that he doesn't know a damn thing about her. We want them back in Season 1, and there's no going back.

And then it closes with Arya not-too-subtlely threatening to kill Jon if he ever crosses the family again. It was one of the best scenes of the whole episode.

And whatever happened to her mother? Don't remember dying on screen.

Pretty sure everyone involved in Jorah getting exiled is now dead.
He wasn't sentenced to exile, Ned wanted to chop his head off. He left Westeros to avoid that. He wanted the pardon because he knew Ned would honor Robert's word, and he wanted (at the time) to come home, or at least back to Westeros.

If he hadn't committed his crime, he would still be Lord Mormont. Lyanna runs the house because of this.

I'm sure she knows, and I'm sure she'd like to spit on him. Him being at Dany's side up North isn't helping her.

Y'know, Dany should have pardoned and/or Knighted every member of the squad beyond the Wall, openly. Sandor Clegane should now be a Lord, as should Tormund and Gendry. They undertook a quest of exceeding danger and importance, and succeeded. There are plenty of open castles around now, they should each have one waiting for them.

They always seemed to have one of the most genuinely affectionate relationships in the entire saga to me.


I’m not saying you’re wrong but they were in an episode and a half together 10 years ago.

Sandor was a noble of House Clegane before joining the Kingsguard, which he defected from. One way to redeem him would be to either be pardoned for his desertion or to name him to Dany's Queensguard. If he's pardoned, he likely becomes the head of House Clegane, and would be a Lord.

Bram and Jamie was the best for me and they didn't say one word.

I thought the way Arya laid her head on Jon's shoulder at the end of the reunion, and the look on her face saved that one. The fact that she told him not to forget that he's a member of the family was icing on the cake.

I was expecting a little more give and take from the Arya/Hound meetup. They kind of just crammed it in with her reunion with Gendry.
