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.

Again, we have to keep the show, from this point on, separate from the books.

She is a trained killer now, she's just not Faceless Men material.

That was fricking awesome. The elephant in the room with those assholes was how they were going to defend with their shitty clubs and burlap sacks, well, it fricking turns out they can't.

It's easy to follow...just not satisfying IMO. To each their own.

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.

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.



Who has been brought back other than Beric and Jon? But yeah it makes no sense to bring her back now

think this episode shows that the writers are really struggling without having the book source materia


What? They know the ending and how Martin is gonna get there. You really think they agreed to make this series without knowing every detail of what Martin plans? Sure there wil be differences just because books can go more in depth but they are most definitely going the way Martin will.

Then she gets up and struts out of the House of Black and White like nothing happened. It's awful writing.



How else did you see this going? Did you think Arya was gonna die? Did you think she was just gonna stay with the Faceless men? You act like Martin isnt gonna take this same route. Some people just live to hate.

I hear ya. I enjoyed it to an extent, but her story wasn't ever the most interesting for me to begin with.

Has anyone else heard the rumors or a certain dance teacher coming back to the show?

The Mountain?

At least we got several minutes of Tyrion, Worm, and M jokes.

Literally, not a lot, but I mean more of the stuff where we don't see the person die and then there is speculation and stuff because as it stands now, we had Jon, Benjen, and Beric in the show, LSH in the books as well as others I believe? The Hound was seemingly dead, Stannis was killed off screen and some assholes are still convinced he is alive, Blackfish was announced dead, and I am sure he is, but its fricking game of thrones, the mountain was kept alive, all sorts of stuff

sorry that was the worst runon sentence ever

Her story arc was just more of a circle over the past 2 seasons. She at least picked up a few tricks along the way.

No they aren't. They will arrive at the same end point but they aren't given specific details from this season out. They have admitted as much. He only gave them 3 big plot points that they are sticking to(Hodor, Shireen, and one unknown)

They have gone on record that they aren't spoiling the books

But I mean actually brought back from the dead. Only 2.

They need to show his fricking head. Although, D&D hated the Mannis so not even giving him the honor of an onscreen death is par for the course for those assholes

He absolutely won't in this manner. Book waif isn't an amateur blood thirsty dumbass. There isn't animosity between Arya and the waif
