I'm fine with this. Littlefinger planting the letter aside, I have no problems with Arya going off like this.

 

[jett]

That's one fanfavorite character utterly destroyed by D&D.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Everyone is getting stupid

 

[DrForester]

Ayra isn't being stupid.

But Sansa is an idiot for not immediately knowing Littlefinger found that letter as he was there when she wrote it.

 

[toastyToast]

But that video wasn't the actor though, it was a YouTuber.

Another one.

Un-ruined

 

[GonzoCR]

Maaaaaaan this is dumb.

 

[Sean C]

Ayra isn't being stupid.

Yes, she is, seeing as she literally served Tywin Lannister.

She also blames Sansa for Ned's death, despite that this letter had no impact whatsoever on that.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Tormund is awesome haha

 

[Sean C]

I could listen to Richard Dormer's voice all day.

 

[DrForester]

Crap. Tormund is talking about having his future with Briene....

He is so dead....

Yes, she is, seeing as she literally served Tywin Lannister.

She also blames Sansa for Ned's death, despite that this letter had no impact whatsoever on that.

She betrayed their family with that letter. I see no problem with her response. She always disliked Sansa.

 

[A-V-B]

I could listen to Richard Dormer's voice all day.

Imagine an audio book read by both Richard Dormer and Iain Glen

 

[Chase17]

Everyone just loves to talk about the wheel.

 

[Lonestar]

Nice scene <3 Beric

 

[BetterThanNothing]

You know what "Ginger" means but not "Dick"?

Wildlings are weird.

 

[ryseing]

Wait wait wait.

No Tyrion, your father's power was not built entirely on fear. Your father was a political genius who inspired respect.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Short men around the world were just triggered

 

[greatgeek]

Wait wait wait.

No Tyrion, your father's power was not built entirely on fear. Your father was a political genius who inspired respect.

His "political genius" was being a ruthless bastard. So, yeah, fear.

 

[lumi7890]

So Danny getting pregos right? Otherwise that conversation was entirely pointless.....

 

[Sean C]

She betrayed their family with that letter.

She thought she was helping Ned. As a hostage being manipulated by adults, she was a victim. Arya should understand this; the other Starks did, and Arya herself was, as I said, in a similar situation.

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Wait wait wait.

No Tyrion, your father's power was not built entirely on fear. Your father was a political genius who inspired respect.

Fear and respect.

 

[Sean C]

Fear and respect.

Nobody loved Tywin, is the point.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Tyrion could use a win

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Nobody loved Tywin, is the point.

Pretty much yeah. Dude was ruthless

 

[DrForester]

When the Fellowship of the Bros set out last week, I totally missed that they brought some red-shrits with them.

 

[JDMC13]

Spoiler

Zombears

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

teleporting bears?

 

[A-V-B]

teleporting bears?

They picked it up from Yardrat

 

[Sean C]

I like that Sansa points out what fickle shits the Northern lords are.

 

[ryseing]

His "political genius" was being a ruthless bastard. So, yeah, fear.

That's simplifying it though. Obviously, Rains of Castamere and so forth. But Tywin had the political aptitude to back up his ruthlesness, something Cersei does not have.

Nobody loved Tywin, is the point.

This is true enough. He didn't inspire anyone. But to say his power was based solely on fear is discounting his brilliance.

 

[jett]

In the books, yeah. But in the show Cersei was inexplicably doing pretty well for herself, before the weapons of mass dragons.

 

[bodyofanamerican]

This Winterfell storyline is the pits.

 

[duckroll]

Is Arya really being dumb, or is she trolling Sansa for fun?

 

[jfkgoblue]

This Winterfell storyline is the pits.

Gotta give the actors there something to do... but yeah it's a stupid plot contrivance

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Is Arya really being dumb, or is she trolling Sansa for fun?

It's all a ploy for overtime from the mayor of Baltimore

 

[Rentahamster]

Oops.

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Flaming swords are cool and all but unless you're Jon and have got Valyrian steel, umm why doesn't everyone have shit tons of dragon glass spears and knives and axes? Didn't they just spend a bunch of time mining tons of dragon glass? Why is that not the primary weapon of all these guys?

Dragon glass is for the white walkers. Not the zombies.

Those are for the white walkers, they don't do anything for the wights.

I don't really know how you put down wights in this universe anyway, fire aside.

 

[Rentahamster]

Dragon glass is for the white walkers. Not the zombies.

It is in the books, but in a previous episode, Jon said it works against the WW and their armies. So either it's changed, or he misspoke.

 

[jfkgoblue]

So that's how the hound gets Gendry' hammer

 

[DrForester]

Gendry will now run for 3 straight seasons.

 

[jett]

I don't think we've seen either dragonglass or valyrian steel do anything out of the ordinary on wights.

Flaming swords seem stupid when you have a member of your party who's petrified of fire and when zombie are likely to get be set alight then jump on top of you.

I don't know if this was confirmed in the show, but dragonglass doesn't work on wights, only white walkers. Sam confirmed this in his last chapter of ASoS. They probably do at least have some dagger or something, but steel is better for the zombies.

 

[Chase17]

This is why Davos needed to pick up Gendry. He's the fastest!

 

[WrenchNinja]

Since when is Gendry known for being fast?

 

[Lonestar]

Gendry's rowing paid off on his running stamina

 

[m_shortpants]

Since when is Gendry known for being fast?

He is an Olympic rower, so he has stamina

 

[Cpt.Underpants]

Look at gendry go

 

[Jibbajabbawockky]

I know that's the case in the books but I thought Jon said it worked against the Wights on the show too. And was that an obsidian dagger they used on the Wightbear?
