Do some of you honestly believe Ramsay is going to win?

Great episode. Looks like it will be all BotB next week.

Little bible beater Tommen needs to die right now.

Edmure has gotten pretty salty.

I expect the Blackfish death will set us to maximum overrustle. Awesome.

Brienne and Jaime with the sexual tension, and they don't have to fight. Awwwww.

Bronn with his baw.

The waif was begging to die, but I'm glad Jaquen let Arya go and was all proud of her.

D&D confirms post game that Jaquen was kind of rooting for Arya to kill the waif. Gives credence to the whole "it was all a test" thing



And honestly, the Waif was a super shitty Faceless Man. I mean seriously, just slit Arya's throat when she's sleeping. That's an amateur mistake.

Pretty much the only way this ends is with LF coming in for the rescue. Honestly, I just hope the giant survives the battle.

I like Arya's outcome...but the tail end of her journey was weak.

Stabbed in gut and patched up...walks it off...

D&D could've done better.

But I'm happier with badassed killer Arya than badassed killer noone.

...that candles don't just go out because you cut them in half. What was that about?

Pretty sure she just did.

I'd set it up in this or the next episode that Varys will hire Faceless Men to take care of what's going on in King's Landing. This isn't all that hard to establish.
Looks like Varys is going to take care of it personally.

My main beef is exaggerating her injuries then somehow she has the ability to kill the waif when the waif has kicked her arse over and over. Yet half dead, she can defeat her in the dark. Okay.


Your main beef should be not being able to recognize that Arya was playing the waif all along, over-exaggerating her injuries to fool her.

Yes. Ramsay is a great villain for the show.

Ummmm...the Waif kicked her arse when Arya was blind. They were even when Arya could see.

Arya made the Waif blind when she killed the candle.

Oh sure. I guess the video evidence of multiple stab wounds with a nice twist was all part of her plan. I'm not exaggerating her wounds. The show did.

Sorry, you are full of shite.

I'm ok with him dying. I'm not ok with Edmure willing to hand him over to the kingslayer

Arya left bloody hand prints to lead waif to needle...played up injury after tumble down the stairs.

Oranges and shite broke her fall.

Varys and Tyrion departing in a loving way is kind of sickening to me as a book reader.

You've got to be able to separate the two. We obviously won't be getting Varys being a child killing blackfyre loyalist, the GNC, or a trial by combat/Clegane bowl for Cersei; but it works for the show since they don't have enough time to play those storylines out like they do in the books (especially with only two half seasons left). But it is good enough for a 10 episode a season show.

I liked the Brienne & Jamie exchange. It still leave the door open for Jamie to march the Lannister army north to help the fight in the War to Come. I also fist pumped when Arya said "A girl is Arya Stark of Winterfell, and I'm going home".

I do hate that they apparently killed the Blackfish off screen. I would've loved to see him take out some Lannisters, but oh well. Overall, I liked the episode. I wish we'd have gotten some more Stark/northern army buildup, but I guess we'll get all we want of that next week.
