To me Sansa came to the realization that there's this massive threat to both the New House Stark and her brother, a Wolf in Wolves clothing, which is there because of her and it falls to her to deal with it. Jon has many talents but scheming with someone like Littlefinger couldn't be further from one of them, and he already proved to be stubborn & bullheaded when she tried to warn him about Ramsay. Plus, once again, a supremely dangerous man has his sights set on her, and like she said last episode no else one can protect her.
No doubt Baelish will continue whispering Sith nothings in Sansa's ear and try to sow dissent in as many places as possible, waiting for the perfect time to make his move or manipulate Sansa into making it for him. Whether or not he succeeds in getting what he wants is why they tell the story.
Good for him he is now backing a good king rather than a religious fanatic.
We're gonna go full on Oldboy with this.

I agree. When he started to tear up talking about her.. I couldn't help myself as I have two daughters.
Really powerful acting right there.
True, but Sansa, along with house Stark, now owe him one, and are indebted to him. And I'm guessing he'll use that to his advantage somehow. Unless his aid in the battle of the bastards was him making square of what wrongdoing he brought Sansa in selling her off to the Boltons.
I feel like Jaime killing Cersei is a given. The show is becoming one of full circles, no? Cersei has somewhat gone a little mad. Jaime is the King Slayer. Now he can be the Queen Slayer. It only makes sense.

Let us call the event "Green Day".
Might be a mercy killing, in that, the war with Dany/North is lost, kill me because I can't do it myself and the alternative to being captured by my enemies who despise me is so much worse...or Tyrion could do it.
Yeap, could see this happening, definitely.
True...but well I have no other choice now that I know.
Jaimie also thought that Cersei loves her kids more than anything but as it turns out she killed the last remaining son - the bond between her and Jaimie - by traumatizing him to gain more power. Power is everything to her; she even used fucking wildfire to blow up the Great Septa and the parts surrounding it - the kind of weapon that led Jaimie to kill the Mad King
Cersei is losing it and the very last scene in King's Landing - where they both look at each other - to me shows that Jaimie finally opened his eyes; Cersei only cares for Cersei
And while I'm not sure if it will be Jaimie who will kill her, I bet that he will have no positive feelings towards her the next season
Weren't there caches of Wildfire hidden under the entire city, not just the Sept? I could imagine a Queenslayer-esque scenario with Cersei wanting to blow the city as Dany begins her siege, leading to Jaime stabbing her in the back.
It rhymes!
Edit: Clearly I'm not the only one thinking this.

It all depends if Sansa wants to play with Baelish's feelings.

I don't think Jaime killing Cercei will go as planned. The Mountain will probably take him down as he's drawing his sword, and he'll be the one who dies.

I wonder how Dany feels about incest.
If only the Dothraki had access to Arya's speedboat... Just one would have shipped them already, one horse and rider at a time.
And hey Littlefinger, discreet and subtle worked out well for you. Jon's plot armor is thicker than ever, you're not in a good place to start disputes.
Yeah, he definitely has changed his feelings toward her, but I don't see him going through with it, he still loves her...I am guessing he didn't love the mad king.
Too many pages to go through so not sure of it has been mentioned yet. It would be an odd choice to show their first landing on Westeros off screen (not that anything has stopped them from showing big events off screen this season!) But... I spotted a couple of ships with the Martell sigils so it looks like they might have picked up the Martells from Dorne and are sailing towards King's Landing already!
Arya will kill The Mountain.

I'm not sure Cersei cares so much about winning anymore. Just fucking up as much shit as possible.
I agree, but the Lannister's could potentially move north when they find out what has happened and force the North's hand....if Dany shows up before the Lannister's can make their move north then I am pretty sure the North will focus their efforts on the white walkers.

That is pretty fucking dark.
It's been mildly accepted as somewhat of a flashback, the meeting in Dorne. Yeah, it's weak but it is what it is. Not a big deal tbh.

Martells and Tyrells were with them.
He, and they doubled back to pick up Dany and co.

Maybe. I've also thought Cersei and Tyrion need to exchange some final words when he arrives with Dany. Tyrion is one of the people Cersei hates most in the world, since she thinks he poisoned Joffrey, which is part of why he's been on the run. Both brothers have good cause to kill Cersei, which fulfills that prophecy that so far is dead on. Whether it's Tyrion or Jaime, I guess we'll see!
Hopefully she finds out it was Olenna who did it before she dies...that would be wonderful.
Olenna <3
He owed her, didn't he?
I just rewatched the scene. Littlefinger goes from amused that wildfolk are causing discord amoung the houses, to discontent when they all pledge allegiance.
Jon looks at Sansa as if; is this really happening? She smiles with approval. She then sees Littlefinger and her face is immediately soured with worry.
It's all there.
Sansas job next season will be protecting Jon and dealing with Littlefinger.

So who do you guys think they are setting up Danny to marry?
My gut instinct goes to Jon, but we can't dethrone an incest couple and then turn around and replace them with a new one could we!?

He might see it as them owing him a favor, but ultimately what would that mean? They have Winterfell back, they are northerners in the North, Littlefinger is an outsider. There's only so much he can push. What he was hoping for was mutual cooperation from Sansa, but if that's not going to work, he might be screwed. He's probably going to play some mind games and try and divide them, but I think in the end he'll find that Sansa's bond with her family is stronger than anything else, especially given how much she has lost.
From kingslayer to kinslayer. He's just dropping a g.

The Walker incursion isn't happening in Season 7.
The Night's King taking down the wall might be the kind of thing that they leave as a cliffhanger, but the war with the Walkers isn't going to take up two seasons. More like two episodes.
If I had to guess, the action in Season 7 will focus on Dany's invasion of Westeros. The North will be about fortifying their forces, political maneuvering, character revelations and Stark family reunions. When Dany has control of the South, we'll see some interaction between the Queen of the South and the King of the North.
I think, when his claim comes to light, Jon and Dany may marry to unite the South and the North for the final confrontation with the Walkers.

Most underappreciated moment from last night.
What Olenna said in less than 30 seconds is what most people have been thinking since the Sand Snakes were first introduced. Felt more like a fan service than originally intended dialogue, lol.

The Jon thing almost seems too obvious to me. I know people have been wanting that couple since the very beginning but it just seems so obvious if they go that way. I'm not against that as sometimes the obvious thing is the right call its just with the way the show loves to throw curve balls at you I'm inclined to think it won't be him.
But then realistically who else could she marry that would make sense? It almost seems Jon is the only answer and it has to be someone considering the scenes last night. That was for sure laying the foundation for her marrying in Westeros

She was going to play the game, get her brother out, and then leave (probably).
But, she played the game of thrones and didn't win, so that's something.

That scene was indeed incredible. Olenna just destroys them so bad haha
So glad she didn't get blown up as well. Wouldn't have been able to bear that.
As she does with everyone who deserves it, which is why she is so great.
