I still don't get why people hold on to this notion that the books equal the show. I think it's been established a million times over already that D&D are doing whatever they want to do.

Fat Man needs to be locked up by Septa Unella and not be allowed to be freed until books 6 and 7 are done.

Good episode. Loved the Pink Letter, loved Jon and Sansa getting reunited (and they didn't beat around the bush that she treated him like shite), Dany's scenes were solid for once, thing in KL were decent.

Exactly, they have nothing to work with anymore. This is "their" show, this no longer a show based solely GRRM books.

I think since Ned was able to hear him in the ToJ vision, a magical being like the Night's King can probably see him.

I'm really enjoying knowing that things should be very different in the books. Clearly this isn't how Dany will get her army in the books, and Sansa isn't even in the North, so she likely won't meet Jon.

That being said, I still think the Pink Letter is a fake. I think saying Bastard so many times gives it away, just as it is in the book.

I'm hoping the Umbers gave Ramsey Rickon so they could send the letter to get Jon to act.

But I can't see Bloodraven let him go see the Night's King. Unless Bran was able to do it on his own or something.

Brienne would have made one hell of a spearwife.

And unless Jorah and Daario just put tons of gasoline in that hut, that has to be the most flammable building ever made.

Ok, so here's my predictions based on the short preview and description:

1. Sansa and Co. arrive at the wall and Sansa and Jon are reunited. She tells him EVERYTHING Ramsey did to her. About that time, a raven shows up with a message for Jon from Lord Ramsey of Winterfell!

2.Littlefinger has reunited with Sweet Robin and to gather the Vale army to aid Sansa in retaking Winterfell.

3. Theon returns home, to a not so receptive welcome. Kingsmoot possible begins.

4. Margary, a broken woman admits to the HS that she lied to him about her brother. The atonement walk day is set but just as she is about to walk, the Tyrells and Kingsguard show up at the foot of the steps to stop the walk from happening. Violence breaks out in the streets.

5. Mereen-I have no idea what is going to happen here. Hopefully all the masters show up for a meeting with Tyrion and the dragons flambe all of them.

6. Dosh Kalene Temple-Dany goes to the top of the temple and faces all of the Khals to receive her sentence while Dario and Jorah fight their way through the temple to save her. She doesn't need them though because she channels her dragon, who swoops into town breathing fire through the temple and everyone in that room bursts into flames, except Dany. She is the only person left standing in the room.





I came close on my predictions from page 1!

1. We got the reunion and we got the letter. I think Jon knows enough now that he doesn't need to know exactly what Ramsey did to Sansa.

2. LF did reunite and did gather the Vale...to join the "frey"....I think there's some foreshadowing there.

3. Theon did return home but we didn't get Kingsmoot. That's fine. I'm just glad he's home. I really wanted him to break down and cry and say "I just want to go to my room"

4. The Margary scene I wanted didn't happen but I think it will happen next week. HS was weirding me out when he was talking to Margary.


5.Meereen-welllll, the masters didn't get roasted. nothing to see here, move along.

6. Dosh Kalene Temple-Ok, so we didn't get a dragon but everyone in the room did burst into flames, just I wanted, except Dany!! Yes Girl! Yes! Beyonce's Formation song started going through my head when everyone started bowing down.

But who else would send it that would know Rickon was there?

But Bloodraven didn't appear to be there, and Meera was trying to wake him up. I wonder if something happened to Bloodraven, maybe?

I think put something in it somehow, because Dany told them and the chick to help her in some other way than in escaping

A walk of atonement for him would be walking to Pizza Hut instead of delivery.
