It isn't a slam dunk but it adds up. It didn't take reddit for me to come up with that theory. You guys that remember every little detail. They even say King Aerys got handsy with her Joanna

I think that was Rhaegal scanning the land looking for V. Him and V were best buddies when Drogon left them.

We live in a normal society and someone just posted that they think the 12 year old Sansa is hotter than fully grown Sansa

They live in a world where incest happens quite a bit, ESPECIALLY in the family you just found out you were apart of

Have you read the books?
Just put two and two together. Of course there is significantly less evidence in the tv show. You're blessed with having knowledge that would be hard to remove from the story




Have you read the statement that you quoted me saying, but arw disagreeing with???
If I specify that in the show (i believe is the main topic of s7e6 otherwise it would be book x ch x) using non-show points to argue is silly.

Honestly as cool as it was this episode wasn't all that well written. The whole "teleporting" thing was used a little too much this episode. Seemed a little too Hollywood.

If you didn't EXPECT Daeny to fly North, you gotta be brain dead.

Benjen?

We all knew he was out there, doing Stark things.

I'm not gonna listen to this shite again...I swear

Some people (almost) learn a new word (reddit, the source, I
Bet) and can't stop playing pocket pool with it.

"Appears or is Introduced"

Like what?
I'll wait.

No spoilers here, just guesses (and for fair notice, I did watch this Wednesday, and have had time to consider things... and this came to me tonight):

1) Sansa and Arya, I think, are playing. Maybe they're in cahoots, or maybe they're both playing Littlefinger separately. Drawing him out, getting Brienne out of the way. He's going to overstep, and I think it's going to be by propping Arya up to assassinate Sansa (she told "somebody" she could just take Sansa's place). When he tries to cash that check, Sansa comes out of the shadows with the dagger, Arya mocks him for thinking she'd harm her sister, and Sansa slits his throat.

Bonus- Arya takes the "Littlefinger" face and pays a visit to ol' Robin next season.

Arya told Sansa, basically, that she figured out how they each could be the person they wanted to be.

I understood what you are saying. I disagreed that we have nothing to work off of in the show. It is definitely more vague than the books. That we could agree upon.

I thought the episode was awesome. The only thing I'd change is since they were so far north we needed Ghost to help Jon somehow.

I think this episode had 10/10 potential but 5/10 execution. I feel like it was a letdown.

If in the show you consider vague to be nothing then sure, we agree. the books might be more clear or suggestive than nothing. but, in the show there is no evidence.

The King of pocket pool, himself.

Amazing how quickly a point can be illustrated.

Teleportation, contrivances, deus ex machina. This episode had it all.
