I think people are really reading too much into this line.

I thought the same thing but if you think about it she has spent a lot of time with Littlefinger, Tyrion and even Cersei at the beginning. That’s some of the smartest, politically savvy people on the show.

I don’t think she is the smartest but she could’ve been fooling everyone. If you remember from the first season all she cared about was being a queen.

Davos. No sarcasm, he’s certainly the most intelligent person in the show now.

I find the take on this line quite interesting.

Arya tells her cousin that her sister is the smartest person she's met... and that equates to being smartest person in GoT.

She met Tywin.


Tywin got himself killed b/c he decided to sleep with his son's woman. All the moves he had made over the years ended b/c he couldn't keep his dick in his pants.

She's not even the smartest person on HBO. That goes to North Hollywood Henry (smarter person).

This.

My take from the conversation was Arya sticking up for her family. Not that she actually believes it.

And when you actually consider her travel partners and that Tywin is dead it’s really not even a stretch.

Davos is probably the wisest of all. He mentions it a lot too in lessons learned. Lol.

Samwell is by far the most intelligent person in the show.

Davos is the wisest. Nothing but truth bombs.

Varys had the most connected source of information and used it well.

Honeslty, I think it's to show more of a disconnect between Jon and the other Northerners than anything else.

To be fair, Sansa did ask the most logical question in the entire episode - how are we feeding 10k Unsullied and like 100k Dothraki?

Bronn is the smartest person on the show and it’s not even close.

Abandon winterfell and attack kings landing to have a base of action and supplies to prepare for the dead.

There arent too many good options coming for our protagonists
