My crackpot theory about Arya is that she will end up being the cause of Sansa's death, just like Nymeria was that cause of Lady's death. The direwolves are symbolic of their owners, and I think since Lady's died early on, it is foreshadowing Sansa's eventual death.


I do agree that the dire wolves foreshadow the Starks but I think Sansas dire wolfs death represented her innocence dying more than an actual death

I don't see Arya killing Sansa.

Which sounds like the shows abridged version of the Dornish Master Plan



I'm thinking Jaime is going to join with Aegon in the books, but they're going to make it Myrcella in the show instead to make the show simpler.

Hey let's not forget Qyburn building the HYPE for CLEGANEBOWL.

So my body count prediction of six appears to have been slightly under the 200 or so killed at Hardhome. Perhaps no one gets killed next week?

Yeah, that's the only other explanation I can think of as to what Lady's death represented.

I don't think she will intentionally kill her, just that her actions somehow get Sansa killed like Nymeria's actions unintentionally got Lady killed.

Part of me hoped that Jorah would find his way into Aegons company in the show and he fully take over Jon Conningtons role.

It wouldn't make total sense but it would be better than the just endless cycle he appears to be in

My question is how are they going to fit in the Walk and the trial by combat

The crimes they accuse her of are all punishable by death on the show I believe. So she can't admit to just the smaller ones like she did in the books

The first time in books or TV that they have shown just how powerful a foe they are facing

I think it looks like that he will either die trying to save Dany in the pits, or be taken captive in the pits defending Dany and spreading a greyscale plague throughout Meereen.

Where is that Valaryian steel dagger that they tried to kill Bran with in Game of Thrones I forgot what Catelyn did with it?



LF has it. LF strikes me as a guy who likes to keep trophies around of his victories, and keep incriminating evidence around him like Walter White does. I think the dagger is probably his most precious item to him, and he's probably pretty bummed Sansa threw away the hairnet.

I have a feeling that that dagger is also going to be the object Sansa uses to kill him with. My perfect death for LF: While he's cornering Tyrion in the crypts of Winterfell, Sansa comes from behind and slits his throat in front of Ned Stark's tomb.

Lol at Rattleshirt. Makes his way back into show, gets beaten to death immediately. I wonder if they burned him in time?

Trial by combat will be next season. Just have Cersei picked up by Robert Strong like she was in the books.

Not all of them. Just confess to fricking Lancel after Robert died and maybe to hating Robert and saying that Lancel took it the wrong way, and then deny everything else. Cousin fricking isn't incest, just adultery, to where Cersei can get off at least temporarily for that with the walk.

We'll see Robert Strong when he picks Ceresi up at the end of her walk and I'm sure they'll put the trial in the next season. Give us some time to reintroduce The Hound back.

IMO Hardhome is one of the best episodes they've done.

The show>>>the books at this point when it comes to dealing with the White Walkers.

I'm fully convinced that they're going to breach the Wall in the finale after that fricker Olly stabs Jon.
