He even looks like a Hufflepuff. Blond and bland and doe-eyed.

If we disregard the obvious plot armor that Arya has, how screwed is she now?

But how do they save face now? Unless Seal Team Bron takes out the High Sparrow, they've completely legitimized him.

Shows up on the shore of Braavos as Ayra is pulling out Needle….

So is Margery actually Team Sparrow now? Or was this all a ploy to jailbreak her without having to do the worst Walk of Shame in history? I can believe she can talk Tommen into anything, but I don't know if she's bought into the Sparrow's BS.

They weren't. They said as much on the behind the episode feature.

I'm trying to have some faith, but I agree that unless there is a huge "ah-hah!" moment at the end where LF is an arm's reach away from the throne, I will be pretty disappointed.

Supposedly she was against nudity for nudity sake, but was ok with it to advance her character. I think I saw an Instagram post saying this, but I don't have a link.

Doesn't he literally learn that there is nothing after death and tell Mel as much? I don't know how I'd respond to dying, but a stint of nihilism doesn't seem too out of place.

How do you convince the Frey to allow you to cross to help the Starks? Even if everyone *hates* the Bolton's now, I don't know what leverage or promise Littlefinger can make to convince them.

I feel like the story is still flowing logically. What do you feel is off the rails?

Half naked Mel in the desert tripping balls in front of a huge pyre? I feel like that's their version of heaven.

I can believe that dying is a good mid-life crisis moment. I don't blame him for wanting to be out.

Join Sam in Oldtown maybe?

Shit, didn't even think about that old bastard. Which I'm sure the show will also conveniently forget.

Littlefinger convinced Robin that they should ride and help Sansa, who's under threat from the Boltons. That was the point of the Vale scene.

I agree that there are good guys/bad guys to the Stark/Bolton fight. But I don't think there are good guys in the Crown vs the Church fight. If you get right down to it, vengeance is the underlying cause for both. The problem for Cersei is vengeance is her only mode.

Do you really ever want to get in bed with Littlefinger, even if it is to get the North back?

Is Sansa role now to be like Cersei? They're both basically both on the "kill everyone to take back what's ours" soapbox to whatever family members who will listen. Both are wielding as much soft power as they can to get what they want. Obviously we have should have clear opinions on who is "right," but the parallel's

Instead, here's some soup talk.
