What if the other actors and actresses casted of the younger girl who paid for the hit and somehow Arya got her to be the 2nd Arya?

The TV series never mentions wights. Its a TV series based off a few books. Your panties are in a wad over nothing.

I myself am not a book reader and the it's simple difference that they don't get. And yes they have mentioned the wights before. I'm just giving another example of how some of them over there are completely clueless.

Plus having her hands behind her back all the time in this episode. That's not how she moves. Or how she speaks. The whole thing was weird.

I kinda buy the two Arya thing. But who was she, then
Hmmm, faceless man maybe? He's pretty unkillable, it seems. And it could have been a test for the blonde waif- she was directly told to not make her suffer. That was directly disobeyed.

Come to think of it, the earlier targets were usually some form of retribution or justice. This one was pure jealousy (a trait the waif seems to share); and what's interesting was that the target portrayed Cersei- someone Arya hates. Yet she was able to separate her hate from the reality of it, and even understood Cersei's love of her child.


I wonder if the whole season is a test of both Arya and the Waif, to see who is more worthy to be a servant of the Faceless God. And the waif is a jealous, sadistic killer, not an impartial dispenser of justice.
That doesn't seem to be the way Jaquen operates.

Arya might have made the right decision.

Anyone else think it's bs how the Brotherhood without Banners have been turned in to bad guys?

Well, they weren't exactly good guys

I mean it's not proven yet the brotherhood did the slaughter

or was it ever proven if those 3 riders were brotherhood?

I'm sure this has been asked, but what was so awesome about that episode that made it someone's favorite up to this point?

It's not one of my favorite ever but it was one of my favorite this season. I liked the dialogue in this episode a lot.

I wouldn't call it a favorite, but I thought it was as good as you're going to get for what some will label a "filler" episode.

I have a bad feeling D&D are going to have the Freys and Lannisters massacre the Tully men and the Blackfish as a consolation to Ramsay likely being killed off

I'm still disappointed I'm Jaime's show arc, especially with next week's preview. Hopefully Brienne can restoke the anti-Ceresi fires.

So which scene did D&D think was the best they've ever done? There wasn't any I could point to that was that great.

Loved the ep, but there wasn't a scene in it like that.


the hounds scenes I bet

I hope they have him decide between Cersei and fighting in the north.

this season has been ok if you consider every episode to be a filler episode. I'm waiting for some sort of action and it never comes. I'm a huge GOT fan and this season could end very strong but i'm tired of not seeing shite every week


Fifteen downvotes isn't enough. You suck.

Not that I think it has much of a chance of happening, but seems to me that a possible compromise would be for Jamie to let the Blackfish and the Tully army go North to battle the Boltons for Jon and Sana and them agreeing to do so. The Crown has no love lost for the Boltons at this point.

Of course I can't really see the Blackfish abandoning his home Castle or trusting Jamie enough to leave the Castle with Lannisters all around.

I don't think so either. This back and fourth between the Waif and Arya was the Waifs test, not Aryas.

Question: Was that Lem and the Brotherhood that killed the people the Hound was with?

not in the books

and it wasn't shown who killed them in the show. the hound probably assumes it's the brotherhood

bet he goes there to get revenge and finds out it wasn't them and maybe a LSH sighting?

i came here to ask about that

does it make any sense for the BwoB to kill a group of innocent people?

show-wise, it makes no sense, but i don't know about the books
