Look, it makes perfect sense once you acknowledge that the last few episodes of the show are just a mind trick the Night King uses to convince Bran to surrender.

I think Jaime is definitely going to end up killing Cersei, but I think he'll survive to feel guilty about it alter on.

Ah, OK.

If that's the case, he'll have to face his fear of fire.

The child's name was Sarah Croft, so I assume she was a relative of sorts.

Eh, double finales aren't that unusual.

They found out that the Sparrow is really Howland Reed, obviously.

I'm pretty sure that Bran can't produce an heir in his current state.

I think the C+ would be an appropriate statement, given how unsatisfyingly it concluded a number of arcs.

I don't know; I think that the Machine could probably make a very good approximation of anyone on the team (look how well it did in "If-Then-Else"), given how much it knows. It's probably able to do a decent job with anyone who lives under surveillance (with the possible exception of people like Greer and Alicia

She could just as easily take the role of a non profit that buys up debt, creates affordable housing, invests in downtrodden local economies, etc.

"Samaritan, if these guys are part of another simulation, you're being a bit insulting."

No, but his chess metaphor from If-Then-Else and his training of the Machine at the casino showed the he always that nobody was more/less important than anyone else.

That monologue is a good mirror to Finch's decision to break his rules.

It'll change hands, but I don't think the site will go away. The user communities may be in more danger, though.

The Anadog Interface.

I didn't see any waffling in that last episode. It was chilling to see how quickly Samaritan turned him into an obedient assassin.

I do think it is funny that Odom Jr. has moved from playing the leader of a group who idealized the founding fathers to playing the man who shot one of them.

There are multiple ways to effect that sort of change. As she mentioned, a lot of people have the system stacked against them. The Machine could essentially act as a much more effective social safety net, ensuring everyone had a real chance to make their lives better without subverting anyone's ability to choose for
