Annnnnd, apparently it's Varys' travel time line that everyone is latching onto with their hateful little claws.

You're gonna be disappointed. These people are the friggen worst.

Not sure, but I think that perhaps Jon will only be interested in ruling the North and will support a worthy ruler on the Iron Throne.

749th!

I always loved that about him. I pray he becomes the Stark family's enforcer.

I DRINK YOUR FERMENTED GOAT'S MILK!

Okay, thanks, I wasn't sure about the succession plan. Maybe Little Finger will just let the chips fall where they may and be supportive of everyone's decisions regardless of their impact on his own designs.

Interesting point. I think that Jon is struggling with her assertion that the Red God is "the one we have." For Jon, he didn't pick the Lord of Light, but the Lord of Light seems to have picked him. If Jon accepts that fact and decides to maximize the potential of whatever power it affords him, it could lead him to…

If Robin dies, does power transfer to Little Finger? If so, he'd only need to off Robin in such a way that he appears blameless and thus retains control of the Vale forces. If that happens, Royce remains powerless to stop Little Finger.

Interesting point on Jamie. Technically, as far as the Freys go (on the show), he's lying in a bed his father made. With Tywin gone, Jamie might be thinking of setting his own agenda.

Ooooh, I hadn't thought of that. I LIKE that!

Would killing Robin Aryn be more prgamatic? Little Finger wants to marry Sansa and he wants complete control of the Vale. Robin is in the way of both goals. Robin knows his mother intended for him to marry Sanda. With Ramsay gone, perhaps he thinks that scenario is back in play.

Couldn't agree more. Anyone who makes that claim is a straight up hater.

I think it's because we've seen past attempts to assassinate her fail. She drank poison on the show right? Or was that just the book?

I haven't been able to confirm, but in Season 2, don't the pyromancers tell Tyrion that they were stockpiling wild fire at the behest of Cersei? And Tyrion says "now you're making it for me" or some such shit.

No, she won't. They'll be allies. They only fought because they each thought they were the one to protect Arya. The Hound will be happy to see that Sansa is with Brienne now. Sandor will wind up one of the Stark's most formidable allies.

But the tv show brotherhood has recognized and is ready to address the issue of the white walkers. Their mission is no longer that of Stoneheart's, so they're not really an appropriate proxy anymore.

The scene between Melisandre and Jon seemed to be hugely important. Melisandre said the God of Light is "the one we have." Jon told Sansa they would fight "with the army we have."

I don't understand - if you know enough to know that it requires an understanding of 12th century folklore, how do you not also know enough to understand the rats reference? Is this whole thing a friggen joke to you, you monster?

I think it would be more appropriate for Jaqen to say "Face off. Face on."
