I guess only a few see the potential for Sansa and Arya actually plotting together to kill Littlefinger in their dialogue.

With a little "inside info" from Bran...

I see that happening. Whether or not that is the reason for Arya's recent behavior is unclear at this point. I mean I guess we'd have to assume that they assume Littlefinger was watching them the whole time which wouldn't be a completely unreasonable assumption but seems a bit unlikely.

I did find it interesting that after Littlefinger suggests Brienne could help Sansa that Sansa sent her away to King's Landing.

I believe you ALWAYS have to assume Littlefinger is watching... but Littlefinger doesn't know that the three-eyed raven is watching too.

Except they aren't past GRRM's writing. He's involved in the show up to his neckbeard, thus not finishing the fucking books.

they are well past the books. He is working with the same time schedule they are if is at all involved with the show, which I don't think he is as much as you are saying.

He may have input on what he thinks should happen, but I have a feeling the books will take a different route to get to the final outcome. Martin won't compromise his story by letting his characters show up when convenient or anyhting like that. The show has too many "oh you're here, how convenient!"

Plus Lady Stoneheart is a wildcard the show doesn't get to use.

I think he is aware that Bran can do some shit. Bran told Baelish he sees everything. That has to be in Littlefinger's head somewhere.

Also, does anyone think Gillen changed Littlefinger's accent a little since the beginning of the show? It feels different. Maybe he is whispering more? I dunno.

I've thought about that with the Wights. In Season 1, it was fire or nothing. Now you get stabby with one and it works. That doesn't bother me but I got one thing that has been on my mind.

How much liquor did Thoros's flask hold? Seemed like everyone was hitting that and there was plenty left to burn his body

Most of their weapons had dragonglass (it was noticeable in Tormund's axe and Jorah's daggers). Jorah killed the bear when he stabbed it with his dragonglass knife.

juliansteed · Aug 21, 2017

Also how about that game of faces Arya wanted to play against Sansa? It seemed to be a bit of a different version than the one the Waif was playing with Arya at the House of Black and White.

"Let's play a game. You like and try to convince me you are telling the truth. If you convince me you are telling the truth then you win. If not then I win."

How the fuck is Sansa supposed to win when it's already known that she is lying? Maybe if she said to tell four truths and one lie and Arya had to determine which was the lie it would make at least some sense.

that's something I was wondering about. Did they equip with dragonglass? I assumed they would, but they never said dick about it.

Dick? I like it.
I'm sure you do.

North of the wall they make do with what they have

that whole interaction was the best part of the episode.

While I love me some Tormund, I feel like the episode needed someone lovable to die. But I guess they really want the Tormund/Brienne story to go somewhere...

Show is having the same feeling that I got when the Wheel of Time books where brought to an abrupt, two loooong books (but was suppose to be only 1), end after the author died. A lot to condense in a short time. Show could have easily added another season but this is what we are going to get.

There was another "I've seen that before" moment that escapes me right now. I'm sure it will come to me again after I rewatch it tonight.

Exactly the kind of exposition we've lost with the accelerated pace.

yet they have time to tell Gentry to leave his war hammer. They made a big deal out of that...

However, that wasn't equipped with dragonglass, right?

when I say it you get all pissy

They need to stop being afraid to kill people

It's a bit frustraing, but I realize they're working to a conclusion. There was times when show was slow paced earlier, maybe a medium throughout series would've been better

I thought the White Walkers could have made the ice thicken on the lake in a matter of minutes, as it is their thing to be able to drop the temperature. But maybe one of them told the others, "You know if we just hang around, maybe some dragons will show up. Then we can kill one and make it ours."

Gotta have a plan...

The Night King is a smart one.

really off on the time gaps again, they show no sense of day or nite to find that army, then run back in no time, just to get back to Khaleesi not banging snow again. Knew the dead army was gonna get a dragon somehow. Will she show her true power by turning it back to her side?

Obvious first pick in next year's NFL Draft (dude has great accuracy and a cannon of an arm):

I'm pissed because I knew this was going to happen because I accidentally read someone's post who had read one of the leaked scripts... Was bummed hearing about it and double-bummed that it was actually true... REALLY not opening links or anything anymore...
