Arya annoyed the Fuck out of me in her scene with Sansa. Like stfu and leave the politics to the politicians. When they need someone's eyes stabbed out, they'll give you a call.

While Arya's approach was heavy handed and not the one of a politician, she was right when she said Sansa wants to be the one in charge instead of Jon. They have been sending that message since the last season. And apparently the one trait of book Arya the show has kept is her loyalty to Jon, so is natural she gets pissed if someone insults him and sees her sister wants to take his place.

I actually agreed with Sansa more there, that's a shocker. Though Arya was right about her wanting more power.

Yeah I understand her intention, but her just barging in and being like you need to behead all ur allies was just obnoxious to me, and then her accusing Sansa of being power hungry on top of it just annoyed me lol. I understand that's just her warrior mentality, but I think she should have backed off. If she thinks beheading anyone who dares disagree with her is the best way to go, she might as well go be Cersei's right hand man.

They're making Arya stupid, thinking she can just behead anyone with no repercussions and falling in Pedofinger's trap. Dany also had a terrible episode, acting like a tyrant at the beginning just to end up being opened to make a deal with Cersei five minutes later. I got whiplash from the change of direction

They made Arya act like a moron during this episode to get the plot going, even though Arya is smart enough to get she can't just kill whoever she wants

I got whiplash from the change of direction I low key liked Mad Dany before all the crazies jumped in on those theories, so I actually liked her being all fire and brimstone there. But it was rushed. The Tarlys were an afterthought when burning them was a big fucking deal.

My hope now is that Arya talks to Sansa about the letter so they can get rid of Pedofinger. But after this episode I'm not going to bet on that.

Another thing that annoyed the hell out of me was Rhaegar apparently annulling his marriage to Elia.They had children together, it would be impossible to annul. Is another example of the show taking the easy route to advance the plot, even if it makes no sense. At all. Like WTF were they thinking.

Rhaegar is a piece of shit. Let's be real. I really hope they don't do a RhaegarLyanna love story via Bran vision but I really think they will. The idea of that is a bit to idyllic for this world. Maybe they do one where Lyanna is in love with Rhaegar, but he only cares about the prophecy and her giving him a child so he locked her in a tower where she died? It fits the world a lot more than a fairytale esque love story of a gallant Prince spiriting the lady away.

That was a pretty lazy way to reveal that the marriage between Rhaegar and Elia had been annulled and that he was lawfully married to Lyanna.

Besides, all parties involved were dead soon enough so maybe it just kind of resolved itself.

Another question: What do you all think is the end game for Gendry? I mean, I'm glad he's back, but what is the role that you see for him going forward? Has Davos really given up on House Baratheon? Forgot to add: Good point TheMadQueen..clearly news of the annullment never got to travel wide, beyond the Maester, since Rhaegar and Lyanna died soon after. The Starks thought she was kidnapped and raped. And no one seems to suggest any type of marriage happening.

The Lannister soldiers look like kids about to be told off by teacher. Where were the Tarly troops?
