Whoa, what if this whole thread is just a green dream that Bran is having and we're all fictional characters in his green dream?

What if Bran is every other Bran that's ever existed and he actually built the wall by warging into Bran the builder and building it?

Say bro, you can say what you want about my stupid interpretations and asinine theories, but my westorosi history is typically spot on.

You're much better than Ancient Astronaut, that's for sure.

I think we all picked up on Daario's comment that Dany would need the exact amount of ships Euron is planning to build in order to sail to Westeros (this made me roll my eyes). At first I thought, really? They might as well have had Daario say, "How many ships? Well, and this is completely hypothetical, but let's put it this way, if there was a new Ironborn King named Euron Greyjoy who had just ordered his men to build enough ships to come take you to Westeros, I would say whatever that number is." My question is if y'all think this is clearly setting up for Euron, or if we are led to think that Asha and Theon might have that approximate number of ships and they might possibly sail to Dany?
This could also mean that Daario is working for Euron.

The fact that Bran sees KL and ToJ (definitely no weirwoods) challenges that theory
If Bran can see this he should also be able to see LF's murders and scheming.
It could also be that he can see Stark events and now that he is connected to a Targaryen (Bloodraven) he can see Targaryen history too. That would explain his visions of Dany and the Mad King. The NK (I think)is a Stark so he could see his creation and the wight army gathering at the weirwood tree.

What if he was pissed at Robert, blamed him (at least partly) for his family's death and rather than be a traitor or less than fully "Stark mode [on]" loyal, he took the black? I'm just speculating, but makes as much sense as anything else. What I never understood was all this resentment from some of the leadership of the Watch when Jon arrives. He's a bastard, yes, but the son (ostensibly) of Ned Stark and the nephew of Benjen. He's Winterfell trained and a great asset, but they gave him shite. I guess if Benjen hadn't disappeared so early in his career, things might have gone differently. Of course, had he survived the ranging and the battle at Craster's Keep, he would have become Lord Commander (in all likelihood) and not Jon.
Jon's treatment is pure plot device. Such a big deal is made about him being a bastard but no other high born bastards are treated with such disdain. Jon's treatment is there to define his character. He needed to be a brooding outsider to go to the Wall and accept the Wildings.

Just watched an interesting video that suggests that Jaqen sends Arya to kill the actress knowing damn well she won't do it and thus he will send the waif after her. We know this, but what the video pointed out is that it was Jaqen's plan all along to send the waif after Arya as her true final test, rather than killing the actress. When Arya kills the waif, we will have to see if she stays or goes. Thought this was an interesting point.

Now you know the origin of the Night King.

I had thought of this. Pretty obvious the waif isn't going to come out on top for this final encounter

Are you sure? Outside of Dorne, I thought bastards have often been looked down on. And Jon was really only treated poorly by Cat.

I've seen that too, but why would he want to sacrifice one of the two?

probably not, but you never know. but even if she does kill the waif, isnt jaqen going to still be after her?

No. Imo. Jaqen said "either way a face will be on the wall"
So If the waif dies, I think he will take that as payment for the debt owed

something meaningful needs to happen with the whole faceless men and their assassin school or else that entire storyline was a complete waste of time, just to get arya off continent for a while
what did she learn?
She basically has learned the art of stealth killing. Arya will kill Waif in the next episode and as someone else in this thread has already suggested, Waif might well be Arya's final test. My guess is Jaqen has already received a commission to sanction someone high on Arya's list. He just had to make sure that she was ready for the job. Because Arya is small in stature and female, she might be uniquely qualified to slip in and out even in a royal security situation. For instance she might take on the face of a trusted handmaiden.
The commission might come from someone who considers the Cersei/Jamie relationship an abomination or the Iron Bank might be collecting the debt owed by the Lannisters in blood. Or the Sand Sluts may now know that the Mountain yet lives and it's time for Lannisters to pay with their lives. In other words the Lannisters have made a lot of enemies any one of which might pay for them to be murdered.

She's been gone long enough that she would probably not get recognized. Also the major players have forgotten about her or think her dead.

Pod is gonna reconize her in a second. Dude is like a dictionary for faces. He could be drunk as frick and see you wearing a berka across the tavern and he'd be able to tell who you were and your entire family history
