Or the Faces of the living are an option for the full members but not acolytes.

If it was the real Arya stabbed, you’re right, she should have been paranoid of every face in the crowd - especially a stranger acting warm and approaching her in a city of strangers.

Have I ever mentioned what a babe Natalie Dormer is? Just a lovey woman.

>Or it wasnt Arya at all. My feeling is that Jaqen had another person put on a face to test the Waif. She has failed as much or more as Arya at not being someone. She was told to not make her suffer and make it quick, he knew she wouldnt.

It seemed really odd.

Lord of the Rings, this ain’t. More like the Hobbit somehow stretched to three full length movies.

Excellent! One of my top-10 favorite GoT quotes:

“You’re a talker...talkers make me thirsty...”

“Check out the white walker. “

I thought we were supposed to be looking at “Sansa” there...

Yes - BeeBs list was spot on.

Lady Lyanna and the Frey loudmouth getting back-handed were the show highlights - IMHO...

Lyanna Mormont should be Trump’s VP!

So Tommen basically hands over power to the High Sparrow so he can get laid again, and Marge doesn’t even come to bed, too funny. You can unfavorably compare Tommen to Joffrey at this point, which is amazing.

The Arya scene was a real headscratcher, some old lady walks up her, come on Arya, you should know better. Hope she’s alright, those wounds looked bad.

Nice to see Ian McShane, a pity he won’t be appearing again. He was a combo of 2 book characters, the captions gave him the name Septon Ray, that name kinda doesn’t fit in this world.

Cleganebowl=Heavyweight match of the century. IF Cersei is actually tried.

“That wasn’t Arya that got stabbed on the bridge.”

Hmmm...that is a take I hadn’t considered.

As I was telling the missus, if it was Arya she needs help fast or she bleeds out. My initial guess for help was: Arya meets Theon (Weren’t they there - partying in Bravos?), then Jaqen H’ghar, but as someone else surmised, perhaps the actress will find her in time...

I believe Theon and Yara are in Volantis, so Theon won’t be able to help Arya.

“It was Arya (who was stabbed). The actress well help her.”

Arya returns to Westeros with the theater group, where her direwolf is roaming the Riverlands. The next episode (8) is named “No One”, so that sounds like more of Arya’s story.

So that makes two episodes in a row where no major characters have been killed. We are way behind pace. Episode 8 should pick things up, and episode 9 is typically a kind of season crescendo.

This season, episode 9 is supposed to be named “Battle of the Bastards”, which sounds like the bell is tolling for fan favorite Ramsey Bolton. But I guess that King Tommen is a bastard too. Maybe Tyrion. Maybe both Cleganes are actually the mailman’s kids. Anyway, people have got to die in episode 9, at the least.

“...the Mountain already died.

Does Sandor Clegane as a living man, have any better chance against the zombie Mountain brother?”

How do you kill the dead on this show - BURN THEM! Poetic justice for the brother who burned him. Maybe he has to overcome his fear of fire and sacrifice himself to the flames as well, to save the world from his evil brother, now that he is good.

Then Cersei might have to play her last ace in the hole, and fire up all the secret WMD wildfire stockpile that her father left her - burning them all, and Kings Landing with them - as the White Walkers make it through the Wall.

“Arya” was also walking (Out in the open knowing she ticked off a group of secret assassins, lol) like Jaqen before commissioning a passage by boat (Hands behind the back, etc...).

I have no idea, really. It was a fan theory I read online. Sometimes the fan theories are more fun that the real show.

While I’ve been a fan of Game of Thrones, it’s becoming a train wreck. There are so many sub plots going in different directions that it will be hard to bring them into focus. Secondly, no made for TV series will give it adequate time due to production costs, etc.

Watching these premium channel shows reminds me of Charles Dickens, who created the serial story to sell newspapers, only they want to retain subscribers.

"That wasn’t Arya that got stabbed on the bridge. It was Jaqen H’ghar disguised as Arya. That’s why no sword, that’s why she had bags of cash, that’s why Jaqen H’ghar’s theme music was playing in the background during the scene.

Well, they needed to cut time on the interesting things so they could have a lesbian sex scene.
