Probably just sees Jon as another obstacle that might keep him from running the north. That, and someone else keeping Sansa away from him.


Except LF probably doesn't realize that Ghost will shred his arse if he attempts to do anything to Jon.

Sansa has always sucked. She's pretty much the entire reason Bed was killed. Whining, snobby little bitch of a person.

But I don't think that she'll try to have Jon killed. She may inadvertently have him killed without her knowing by writing LF but who knows.

Who else could it have been? From my observation from the show, the FM don't change size when they change their face, which is why Arya has always changed her face to a young girl like herself. I just don't see Jaqen being Arya, removing her face, and then growing a foot.

it just makes zero sense for her to be walking around with new clothes, no worries, throwing money around, etc when she would know that the waif or Jaqen would be coming for her

In the season finale last season, the waif turned into Jaqen after Jaqen drank the poison.

But then again, that whole sequence was weird as hell.

He could just be playing it straight yeah. But I mean it is LF we're talking about here. That dude is the slyest person in Westeros.

You talking about the back of the head girl? Her and the Arya you see are on equal footing and the girl on the left is a head taller.

SFP just wants to feel important and impress everybody with his infinite wisdom and not just a select group.

2. The teleportation thing really, really bothers me. Jon and Sansa are defying the laws of physics.

Didn't bother me at all; I think they're moving at a normal pace, but we're seeing a bit into the future with them. The books were the same; not everything we see happens in chronological order or simultaneously


Agreed, I'm not sure why people are all bent out of shape about the timeline. It's not Jack Bauer bad.

I know it's an incline but look at their feet. They are almost equal. Incline or not the one on the left looks taller.

My only complaint for this episode is Yara. She was straight in the books and her being a lesbian in the show irks me. "Yeah she's a tough bitch so let's make her a lesbian


Personally, I would file this change under "who gives a frick."

I guess I'm ignorant, why does LF want Jon dead so badly?


Well, look at Jon from an outsiders perspective. He starts off in the Night's Watch, betrays the order to join the Wildlings, gets back into the good graces of the Night's Watch, fights the Wildlings, kills the King Beyond the Wall, is elected Lord Commander by his peers, executes his only competition for the job, lets the Wildlings in regardless to get his own army, seemingly dies but somehow revived which allows him to leave the Watch, and finally has the heir to the North as his ally that he may have directly stolen from Ramsay. On top of that, Jon executes LF's right hand man who knows many of his dirty secrets and may have told Jon that LF was behind his father's death.

From LF's perspective, Jon is as good of a bullshitter as he is. He is a far more competent version of his father, which I'm sure frightens him. I think LF also perceives that Jon has stolen Sansa from him. LF's focus now is to get Robb's former empire united under him through Sansa, so Jon has to be eliminated.

The Ayra thing is kind of frustrating but at least the actress story brings some humanity back into her life.

LF has an army of 20,000 men and he is not remotely adept at the sword. He's not going to personally try to kill Jon, just give his troops the orders to do so. Jon is leading a pack of Wildlings he personally let past the Wall, has seemingly abandoned his vows to serve his own purpose, and abducted Robb's heir. I don't think it's much of a stretch that the Lords of the Vale would agree with LF that Jon should be killed.

Why wouldn't Jon bring Ghost with him to unite the Northern Houses? That would help his stance that the Starks are still strong.
