Shimrra Jamaane posted:When Arya was walking down the street before getting stabbed a girl dressed in exactly the same outfit as Mercy walked right by her going the other way. That's surprisingly clever for the show, but I think you nailed it. Still, looking forward to a solid week of fans discussing the likelihood of death after multiple abdominal stab wounds, and soaking said wounds in nasty canal water in a pre-antibiotic society.

Arya's plot has me confused, it's pretty obvious she doesn't just die but I don't see how she comes back from multiple gut stab wounds with a dunk in a dirty canal right after, plus I wouldn't put it past the waif to poison the blade, a la sand snakes, since the faceless men seem so fond of poisons. Magic? There's no red priest in bravos as far as I know. For a moment I was hoping it was a dream/premonition when she was getting stabbed, but I guess not. Not sure how they're going to resolve it without being disappointing. Overall it's a pretty solid episode and this season is definitely good.

I bet you dollars to donuts she swapped faces with someone or did some other form of trickery, which makes no sense and is totally for the sake of a twist, but I bet you that we will see her in episode 9 as a "surprise".

And Dany's plot belong to a MTV production.

I'm glad that Olenna didn't decide to pull a Ned Stark when someone she shouldn't trust came in and was like hey why don't you just hang out in kings landing for a while Arya not falling over and dying like Barry the bold p much confirms that she makes it out, I guess this is where we find out how strong her plot armor is I guess next week should climax everything not winterfell? High expectations

So I think Sansa may have offered to marry Littlefinger in exchange for his help. The Glovers really impressed upon her how Robb's failure to follow through on a strategic wedding hosed the entire North. And I don't see why Littlefinger would come back otherwise. The spoilers just say that Littlefinger saves the day at the Battle of the Bastards, but don't say why.

Super bummed about Ian McShane. When he first game on the screen grinning and dicking around with the builders, I thought, "poo poo yeah! Finally some emotional variation in this show." The gamut of emotions in this show is about an inch wide, varying from: - Serious and worried - Serious and neutral - Serious and smug and occasionally someone will take a train over to 'horrified'. Of course they're going to immediately kill off an interesting addition. I forgot where I heard it, but somewhat said what I've come to completely agree with. "I think I like Game of Thrones... but I don't like any of the characters or anything that happens in it."

If Sansa offered to marry Littlefinger, he'd be up there faster than goons can make posts complaining that he's about to teleport.

I'm really hoping next episode they reveal that Arya ninja swapped face with somebody else. It would be terribly retarded, but it would be much better than "she got better" after multiple stab wounds.

Shame his character isn't sticking around. E: lezard_valeth posted:I'm really hoping next episode they reveal that Arya ninja swapped face with somebody else. It would be terribly retarded, but it would be much better than "she got better" after multiple stab wounds. I'm not sure they can go that way, the faces come from the dead and it looks like they have to be cut off before use. Plus we got the scene where she walks out of the canal, some other chump would have just drown. Sloppy work by the waif if she just assumes her target is dead. Was it just me, or was the crowd she was limping through filled with repeated faces? Bajaha fucked around with this message at 04:17 on Jun 6, 2016 |

I feel like that will be the resolution and the waif will find the fake arya in a corner somewhere and be about to kill her before real arya kills the waif. Still stupid cuz how did random nobody know to do a crazy rear end flip like that into the water?

This episode was great, really had a Season 1 or 2 vibe. They are killing it this season! Hope they keep it up. Lady Mormont was great and I'm happy to see she's joined the army. Olenna shittalking Cersei was incredible and I was wondering the whole time if Gregor was just gonna smash her to pieces. Oh yeah, and Return Of The Hound. Maybe Arya's set a trap for the Waif by using a squib under her shirt and leaving a trail of blood.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQYoBvtEPWY No repeated faces that I can tell off. They just look similar. If it turns out that the scene was played at face value and that Arya was just loitering about with the Dark Brotherhood on her case, my complain is not that she survived multiple stab wounds or infection from poo river, but that the FRIGGING DARK BROTHERHOOD didn't use a poisoned blade, or hell even a ninja super poison dart like J'aqen did in season 2, and just took their victim for death without making certain about it. Plus the Waif deciding to stab her with a normal knife, after J'aqen told her not to let her suffer, is further display of the Waif having her own grudge and motives and not being "no one" at all. Seriously I personally loved Arya's story in the books, being what kept me going during A Feast For Crows, but show Arya is complete poo poo, and I think we are part to blame for enjoying her interactions with Tywin in season 2 too much.

Its funny how people here criticise the writers but then think that Arya swapped her face with someone is the most logical answer to what just happened. And then... you guys also come up with the genius that Sansa offered to marry LF. Wtf? She probably just asked for his help. He made it pretty clear an episode ago that he would do anything to set right his Bolton mistake. Shes also already married to Tyrion and Ramsay but I guess she can just go around marrying anyone who isnt already married. you guys, sometimes.

Arya putting her face on someone is definitely plausible. Come to think of it, the person she probably put the face on was the girl that paid the faceless men to kill the older actress in the play. That way Arya gets to kill two evil ppl with one stone. Boom - remember this post when it happens. InFlames235 fucked around with this message at 04:40 on Jun 6, 2016 |

Also, since when can FM wear the faces of living people. Its all pretty retarded and its funny that this is what people thimk will happen.
