Loved the Hound scenes.

Still hope for LSH....? Now would be the time.

I took it as this was JH's plan all along...he seemed to nod in approval and be proud. I think he wanted her to avenge her family name.

Ummm, yeah. When she told Jaqen that she's going home, he just nodded to her...as in he's ok with that. He always told her that she could basically leave because she didn't belong with the Faceless Men.

You have no issue with the hound surviving 80000 infected wounds in the middle of nowhere but a stab wound to the stomach survival is just too unrealistic for you. okay.



She took way more than 1 stab wound. And was the Hound sliding and jumping all over the place the next day?

Either way her "trap" should have got her killed last episode. It was bad writing.

Not all criticism is unfounded.

I am kind of glad they will likely not bring in LSH. I mean there's only so many frickin people you can bring back from the dead in a damn story before it becomes so saturated. At a certain point you have to be able to say no, that fricking person is dead.

I guess Arya is our show version of LSH. I think the Frey's are about to get smoked.

The hall got a face. And they never established that you have to stay with the faceless men once you begin training. Maybe Jaqen accepted long ago that she might defect and he was cool with that as long as she was trained well enough? who knows

okay fine noone is changing your mind about that, i dont really care too. but how does that one scene (in which really the only issue you have about it happened last episode not this one) turn into OMG ITS THE WORST EPISODE OF THE SEASON. so much fricking awesomeness happened in this episode

dont pretend like you are giving some constructive criticism of the show when you are just using hyperbole to gain attention

Didn't in the books, the kindly man tell her this was the point of no return when he put a new face on her for the 1st time? I can't remember.

What I don't get is why Jaqen said "and now you are noone" That obviously wasn't true because she was holding needle

I am pretty sure she was Arya Stark the orphan..now she is Arya Stark of Winterfell...someone who is going to get vengeance and take back her family name. Not too hard to follow. She was never going to join the FM and be part of them.

This episode really set Jaime up to be the VQ.
If she decides that Tommen has betrayed her and burns he and the Sparrows in the sept, absolutely.

I like how the faith 'prayed on' no more trial by combat after they saw their homey get his head ripped off

I can't remember off the top of my head, but I don't think Jaqen ever knew about needle?? She hid it in the first place before training, and I know it seems like the faceless men seemingly know everything, but Jaqen seemed surprised to find the waif's face in the hall, so who knows

Did you think her conclusion to her story would be "and arya left happily ever after to be a faceless man and has no other implication in the story or with her family"?


The second she hid needle under that rock EVERYONE knew she was never going to be a FM, except you apparently

It was the worse episode IMO. I'm sorry you disagree. One episode has to be the worst.

This was mine simply because of the Arya scenes.

Oh and because of Jamie's line about getting back to Cersie. That also made me mad.

But back to Arya...

She gets stabbed multiple times in the gut, jumps off into filthy water, recovers enough after 1 DAY of rest to race through the streets, jump out of windows like Batman, and walk out the Hall of Faces with no apparent injury.

Yep.
