Arya bit was very underwhelming. We know she isn't going to die yet, and we've seen her get beat up by the waif before. Just move on already.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

This season has been great.

 

[Litan]

People were exoecting Atya to kick ass. Instead, she gets fucked up.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Excited for the last 3 episodes.

 

[TheFatOne]

So just like the last few books

Pretty much this. Thankfully I won't be reading the next couple of books since Martin decided to spend 1k pages leading up to a cliff hanger I don't feel compelled to read the rest of the books in the series. Greatest sin a writer can make for me.

 

[ultron87]

That seemed like a large amount of stomach stabs for someone to survive.

 

[DrForester]

Jamie. Forever Cersei's bitch. Forever ruined in the show.

 

[Chase17]

Preview

Spoiler

So Brienne is going to fight and kill Jaime because due to honor, and Jaime will fight her because he wants to return to Cersei who he loves. ok then

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Ian

Paul Bunyan is out for revenge!

 

[SargerusBR]

That preview...

Spoiler

Jaime is beyond redemption at this point.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Can't wait to see Sandor go all Hotline Miami with that ax

Shit, really? that's pretty lame.

 

[Saya]

I thought the Faceless Men were master assassins?

"Hello, little girl... I'm just a harmless old lady that looks like your mentor from the guild"

*stab stab stab*

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

No way Arya dies. Ian McShane wasn't given much to work with.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Next week looks hype.

 

[HowardRoark]

That seemed like a large amount of stomach stabs for someone to survive.

Seriously, that was a ton. Like RW amount.

 

[reggieandTFE]

No way Arya dies. Ian McShane wasn't given much to work with.

Seriously! I can't believe that was the whole role. I always felt that he would have been a great Mance.

 

[void666]

So arya has been training since the 80s and this is the result?

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Arya should've known better. Kill first and ask questions later. These people have no faces. Wait...is waif in trouble for failing to collect Arya's face?

 

[Ganzlinger]

How can you not listen the sound of a massacre happening nearby you?

 

[Dai101]

Jamie. Forever Cersei's bitch. Forever ruined in the show.

Pussywhiped by your own sister... that's got to be a new low for simping.

 

[Euron]

I liked Jaime's part a lot this episode but it looks like they're going to ruin it next week.

 

[Matsukaze]

Seriously, that was a ton. Like RW amount.

I immediately thought of the Red Wedding as soon as the first stab came. Arya is much tougher than anyone gave her credit for, apparently.

 

[DrForester]

"Oh crud. We need to stretch Arya's story out until the end of the season. Let's make no one think she's going to die!" ~D&D

 

[Chase17]

So arya has been training since the 80s and this is the result?

She expertly jumped off that bridge

 

[kirblar]

Arya should've known better. Kill first and ask questions later. These people have no faces. Wait...is waif in trouble for failing to collect Arya's face?

Waif is in trouble for agreeing to the job in the first place. She's breaking a big Faceless Man rule.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

FFS D&D you're not fooling anyone with Arya.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Why didn't the waif jump in after a crippled arya and finish the job. Doesn't know how to swim?

 

[Brazil]

Amazing episode, holy shit. Easily the most book-ey since S1.

The entire Lyanna scene was amazing. So was the Blackfish x Jaime confrontation. And so was the Asha and Theon conversation.

And fucking fuck for them showing Sandor before the opening. That shit was hype beyond reasonable levels.

In the preview, though,

Spoiler

it's really sad to see how Jaime is literally the polar opposite of book Jaime

 

[Joeku]

So, this Hound stuff is leading to (just going to spoiler anyway cuz fuck it)

Spoiler

Lady Stoneheart

, right?

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

What the fuck. How the hell did Clegane not hear or notice a slaughter taking place a few hundred yards away? Did I miss something.

 

[Matsukaze]

How can you not listen the sound of a massacre happening nearby you?

This is exactly why my immediate reaction to the sight of the bodies was "He's having a nightmare of what will happen if he doesn't go murder the Brotherhood preemptively".

But apparently not lol.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Waif is in trouble for agreeing to the job in the first place. She's breaking a big Faceless Man rule.

Waif is done then. I guess the actress lady is gonna take care of Arya's wounds and then she will get revenge

 

[void666]

She expertly jumped off that bridge

I bet her vital organs dodged the the knife.

 

[ryseing]

So, this Hound stuff is leading to (just going to spoiler anyway cuz fuck it)

Spoiler

Lady Stoneheart

, right?

Nah bro. Cleganebowl. Get hype.

 

[HowardRoark]

Do y'all mean Olenna?

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

I liked Jaime's part a lot this episode but it looks like they're going to ruin it next week.

Honestly I have this feeling this whole arc is to get him reset back to the books in regards to his thoughts of his sister, the crown, etc. like they know they screwed up and have to get him back in line for the end game. See also the hound. And see soon Stoneheart.

Like GRRM gave them the bullet points of the rest of the series and saw the tangents they made that they needed to fix

 

[thestopsign]

That was a great episode just through acting, writing, and framing. Not much on the action side, but that was fine.

 

[Emerson]

What the fuck. How the hell did Clegane not hear or notice a slaughter taking place a few hundred yards away? Did I miss something.

The sounds were literally what led him to going back to the camp.

 

[xRaizen]

Where are you guys getting this Stoneheart stuff from? Have they hinted it in the show? Did I miss something?

 

[Ponn]

Dammnit give Mcshane more work than that.

 

[FStubbs]

Waif is in trouble for agreeing to the job in the first place. She's breaking a big Faceless Man rule.

Other than she seems to despise Arya, what rule was she breaking by agreeing to it?

 

[Betty]

The waif needs to get fucking got, she reached maximum smugness level last season and has been unbearable since.

Good episode though.

 

[Saya]

Dammnit give Mcshane more work than that.

Seriously! It was like a breath of fresh air, I was hoping to at least see him in 2 more episodes. Such a waste.

 

[kirblar]

Other than she seems to despise Arya, what rule was she breaking by agreeing to it?

You don't accept jobs for people you personally know. It should always be just business.

 

[Brazil]

We're not gonna get LSH and we're not gonna get Cleganebowl

Spoiler

this season

.

Face it, GAF.

 

[ryseing]

Where are you guys getting this Stoneheart stuff from? Have they hinted it in the show? Did I miss something?

Jaime/Brienne meeting in the Riverlands + reintroduction of BWB, plus Jon being resurrected a la Beric. If it's going to happen, it'll happen in the next couple of episodes.

I honestly don't think it will though.

 

[Charlie0108]

Another great episode. This season has been brilliant.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

You don't accept jobs for people you personally know. It should always be just business.

Probably why she got sloppy and let Arya get away. Wanted to make her suffer and now she's gonna get got in the end.

 

[Fuzzy]

D&D brought back needless shit they previously skipped over so some think they'll bring back other needless shit. She ain't happening.
