So many questions about Arya's arc here. Some of them being:
What was up with her casually walking around the city without a care in the world?
How did she run and take dives with her wounds?
How did she win the fight?
What was the point of the faceless arc? To show that she's a better assassin?
Also, Did the hound kill innocent Brotherhood guys? He killed the ones camping out but it was just 3 guys who raided that commune.
Would have liked to see the blackfish die instead of just being told about it.
Good episode.
Next episode preview. Wow

Davos asked about Shireen the moment Melisandre returned from the Wall, and when he met Brienne.

When did the Waif become the T-1000 complete with accompanying soundtrack? This is dumb.

I already know whats gonna happen:
Cersei uses wildfire to blow up sept, only it turns out Tommen was there cause he's an imbecile.

It'll make him love her more.
It felt like everything happened off screen and that's a bummer. It's so odd to me that we have time for stuff like Missandei's joke corner but no time to see the Blackfish's final moments or Arya finally using Needle again.
Both things with a Clegane in them were crazy (head and spine all getting pulled out, Sandor axing heads clean off) but if it hypes up the Cleganebowl... Though I don't know how he could possibly end up in King's Landing fast enough for that to happen.
Next week is finally what we've been waiting for.

But there's no trial by combat. The show made it seem like The Hound might head to the Wall.
I know and because he was interrupted, he never brought it up again. It just wasn't important enough of a discussion to have for him. He cared that little about where Shireen was.

Jaimes monologue on the fierceness of a mothers love, and all relevant PoV converging makes me think they'll bring Stoneheart into play. That shit straight shocked me in the books.
I don't need a Gods sanctioned fight for it to be a bowl. I just need them beating on each other until one or both are dead.
But yeah if nothing stops them going North, we're not getting it :/

How could they name drop the Manderlys so much for them never to show up? Maybe next week?
Realize years have passed since the Red Wedding in the show. Book found her body a couple days later. If they even found her now it would be decomposing.
I have liked this season, and I still think it's miles away from season 5. There were even scenes in the episode that that I sort of liked.
But like, what the fuck D and D? Can they please give Cogman all episodes next season?
That was probably the worst one since season 5, episode 9.

I assume that he took Meli's silence as her being killed by the Boltons. The only way he'll find out the truth, is if he runs into one of the Stannis deserters.

Yep. Not sure how they'd not include her at this point.

Would the Hound be able to recognize Nymeria? Does he know Brienne? I'm trying to figure out the purpose of linking him with the Brotherhood for the overall story.
I'm assuming he will have a face-off with Brienne when she gets captured, that should be cool. I wonder if Nymeria will pop up to pull a certain corpse from a river.
Or maybe LSH will have the Hound killed instead of Brienne to end the season with a shock death.

It's been a few years a since the wedding per Edmure. 9 months at the very least..lol I doubt there's anything left of her.
I think Manderly is going to be nothing more than a little Easter egg for book fans. He'll show up after the battle and give a little speech for Jon or Sansa or whichever one they declare new ruler of the North.
Also, Stoneheart is so not happening. Edmure said it's been years since the Red Wedding. Cat's body is dust at this point. She is not coming back.
There are a few arcs this season that were just poorly, poorly conceived and are pretty clearly just delaying for time. Arya and Tyrion are the worst offenders here. Dany's story, too, feels like it would be about two chapters in the book.
HAHAHA this must happen.

That would be great.
Counterpoint: Logic means nothing for the show. You could say Arya was stabbed several times in the stomach in the last episode. In this episode, she won't be running through the streets. But you'd be wrong. You never know with D & D.
Man I really feel they should have went a different route in the show with Riverrun.
Edmure smacking Jaime about with his words in the tent was great. It would have been great for him to follow it up with not giving up the castle without a fight when he entered.
Really would have drove home how little respect everyone holds for Jaime and his honour.
It would have made Jaime attacking the Castle a great moral conflict, adding the depth we so desire from his character.
Instead we got "I'm Cersei's whipping boy".
I still enjoyed that part of the episode but man apart from looking and acting cool, Jaime's character is such a wanker.
I dunno man she was in the sky, the boats were in the water and it didn't look like the catapults were reaching the top of the pyramid.

I think, in the end, he considered her a friend. And, she gave the Many Faced God a life with the waif's, for the one she denied him. Basically they were square.

Jaqen had thing planned, the end result seems to be what he wanted.
Riverrun resolution sucked.

I can buy that Jaqen likes Arya and respects her. I think he was happy to train her and turn her into more of a fighter and then unleash her back on the world.

Because Mereen is a giant nebula of protracted exposition. This Mereenese Knot solution is just letting the knot deteriate until it undoes itself.
Probably so that next episode she can free her two dragons and they can have a grand scene with all three burning the ships.
Because you are unique and special, and there's no one like you. Jaqen is Mr. Rogers.
Did Stannis ever give him some kind of decree naming him a Stark? I can't recall. I know it was offered in the books.

With Beric back I feel like LSH gotta happen now
But Edmure won that stone mill, fair and square.
Seriously though, honor-bound soldiers would totally follow the orders of their liege lord.
This episode marks the third usage of the word "pussy":
1. "You want a good girl, but you need a bad pussy."
2. "You ever been with a girl with white pussy hair?"
3. "Smells like pussy."
Awful, just bloody awful. I honestly can't understand how this dialogue gets anywhere near a script. Maybe D&D just don't care.

well that was quite the drop off in quality from last week. cogman seriously needs to take the reigns from here on out because every episode d&d have written this season have been the weakest. at least next week looks hype.
Because if she did that then it wouldn't be important when Yara shows up! Doesn't want to steal her thunder.
