Yeah. There were multiple shots of her analyzing their setup and looking for where their weapons were - like she was calculating how many of them she could kill before they could reach their swords. But once she engaged them in conversation, she changed her mind.

I'm glad I have no idea who Ed Sheeran is, as it apparently ruins the episode.
Well we still don't know for sure if they make it out their encounter with Arya alive.

People are crazy, Ed Sheeran did nothing worthy of ruining the episode.
My immediate thought was to kidnap Tyrion, but I really have no idea
What do you have against Bronn?

Indirectly, when dealing with GOT saying someone killed someone is usually a direct action.

Okay but why Ed Sheeran.
Good episode overall though.

Yeah I mean more indirectly lol....BUT I do think she'll see it benefits her and allow it to happen...whatever it is. Of course Littlefinger will encourage it....

She probably wont, because she says in the very same episode that Jon makes a good ruler. The point is that she's not going to be just a pretty face doing nothing. She literally saved Jon's ass (and the entire story book) by calling the Knights of Vale. She's not an inexperienced idiot schoolgirl she was in the first season.
Um he totally sang, and basically had a spot light on him even though he had nothing to contribute

Tyrion. Alive.
Sounds like they're just being cunts who value their rules over believing Sam. And even the one that maybe believes him, think it will all be fine because of The Wall, so fuck off lil' plebeian, go weight some more of my shit.
He didn't do anything, it just broke the immersion having him suddenly there. At least for me.

HBO Now worked without a hitch.
Damn they got good at making this show. Even the 'previously on' old footage edited now made it look fresh again.
Costume design👌
Returning faces👌
All the different view points end on great notes. Faith restored on expecting some dope battles.

Like I said earlier in the thread, to me it's no different than when Ian McShane showed up, or other actors that I recognize from other shows. For a split second he was the singer and the next he was a Lannister soldier in Westeros.
He was in frame for about 30 seconds, max. And they have guests music artists all the time and nobody bats an eye.

Euron was one the best things about this episode lmao. Kept burning Jamie left and right.

That cake was made from Walder's sons. The Tullys are Arya's relations on her mother's side.
Fair point. I mean, season 7 might be a bit late to suddenly, not to mention briefly, go for that angle. Furthermore, it's a fact that should go without saying, so you could argue that it's a bit insulting to the audience's intelligence. So I'm still going to go with "gratuitious celebrity cameo," but at least I see the intent now.
Overall, this was a very solid "here's where everyone is now" episode.
"...with two hands."
Jamie was about to throw hand.
If Bieber shows up, I'm blowing stuff up.

So can someone refresh my memory on how Arya is now able to do her face thing without consequence?

Tune in next week for Carrie Underwood as Cersei's crazy new cousin! You'll love the new song that's hitting the seven kingdoms!
I just laughed, I thought it fit pretty perfectly. He's an ugly english guy who's almost literally a bard in real life, it fits

Hopefully Littlefinger gets out of the picture soon.
No time for scheming and backstabbing when the army of the dead is marching on you.

Yeah, plus that open was fantastic and especially works because we know she's there. And they disguised it like it could have been a flashback.
I think they successfully got two glorious moments out of it.
Yeah.
This is a good point. A discussion on something of this scale probably should have come up with his advisors prior to getting announced.

Because a lot of the rules of the faceless were basically bullshit and it turns out they're just killers for hire with a little bit of magic and she's Arya Fucking Stark.

I'm glad they finally decided to humanize some of the normal soldiers in that Ed Sheeran scene.
Pretty much the entire show has shown nothing but rapists and sadists as soldiers, but most of them are good people who just want to go home.

Liam Gallagher should show up next, only to get violently dismembered.

Every child actor on the show ages way too fast. But not Lady Mormont!
"I don't need your [FUCKING] permission."
I love her.
DangerMouse

Yeah, plus some other good things about him.
She also took several digs at Littlefinger.
Feels like the showrunners didn't know exactly what to do with Arya in Braavos, decided "fuck it, just send her home and have her know what do". Because Braavos was some boring ass shit.
She drank from the death pool thing to get her sight back. I assume that's got something to do with it.

Guess I'm glad I have no idea who Ed Sheeran is, because that whole scene was great.
She graduated.

Only thing I'm really not feeling is the whole Sansa vs Jon storyline. We wait all these years to get some Starks back together and the first thing they do is start fighting.
Disappointing episode, will consider not staying up anymore and just watching the rest of the season the morning after. The beginning was good but I lost interest during the 20 minute poop montage and the hound scene.
I already fear that the season is going to end with a shot of Daenerys going into battle, and all the 7 episodes are going to build into that moment. I'm tired her closing every episode and every season, implying that she is going to do something. There should have been a battle at the castle since the Lannisters leaving it unprotected and ready to be taken sounds like a stupid plot hole.

I thought the same thing about that scene.
It was nice to see soldiers who weren't complete assholes for once.
At least he's at the right place. I hope they're actually trying to help and not just studying it as it spreads.
