If he only lives long enough to curb-stomp stupid Edmure on his own battlements and pitch him into the river, I'll be happy.

I can easily see him going for that. "Well we WERE going to do the crown-and-faith-on-equal-footing thing, but since the king turned out to be a SIN BASTARD and there're no more legit Baratheons, in the name of preventing [more] civil war we'll just keep this throne warm for u guys."

Part of me really hopes she made Waif Kabobs on Needle.

No, it's some Icelandic dude named Johannes Haukur, who, I'm kind of glad he died and won't become a regular player, because he looks confusingly like Euron Greyjoy.

Maybe that's the High Sparrow's plan — bring that incest stuff out at the trial, find her (and thus Tommem) "guilty," and kick the royal family to the curb in a long-game power-grab.

Your interpretation makes a LOT more sense…but I feel like if that's what the "official" story is, it should've been a little easier to glean from viewing?

A man is proud of a girl's badassery even if she did essentially fuck him over. Also, a murder-cult has no consistent internal logic.

Thirded. I half expected her to molten-metal shape-shift her way through an iron grate or something.

Truth. Missandei's joke was WAY better.

Yeah, that whole thing would only have made sense to me if Arya had always resisted/eschewed killing anyone. But she's killed plenty of people already who, like the waif, weren't "assignments" — how is this one somehow different or special?

Lannisters are rich imperious and will throw out a glass of wine if there's a fly in it, Starks are poor penny-pinchers and will try to get the fly to cough up the wine it "drank"? (And Martells are…bug eaters?)

I was okay with the whole Arya thing, because it was pretty fucking satisfying. Also enjoyed the cinematography/direction of this whole ep, particularly during Arya’s segments.

A Tricia Helfer show AND a Bradley Whitford show? I am strongly in favor of both of these concepts.

There's an ultra shitty movie theater at the mall here. The good theater is by the Home Depot.

Ad-Rock begs to differ.

"Americaning Bullshit 2 : Americaning Boogaloo," etc, etc.

And I would've thought "[Verb]ing [ProperNoun/Name]" had been thoroughly played out too, but noooooooo.

I'll forgive the use of that song, because FUCK. YEAH.

If O'Neal gets eaten by zombies or something tomorrow, it's good to know there's someone around who can fill his shoes. Nice work. Heh.
