The Waif is dead girl walking, even if Arya doesn't kill her. She disobeyed Jaqen by twisting the knife literally, and is clearly too emotionally involved and not cut out to be No One.

Is season 2 better than season 1? Season 1 sometimes felt like it had one joke: someone says a figure of speech that is not usually meant literally then they cut to showing how it is literally true and bizarre.
I think it would definitely have been a better film. Partly because it's a lot easier to add humor in animation, and humor solves a lot of "it's boring" issues in movies.
It may not have been Arya. She walked very differently to Arya earlier in the episode and they played jaqen's theme music on the bridge.
They just need to have someone examine it and say "it's a through and through, you'll be fine", the magic healing words on network procedurals.
Which is odd given that the whole Sparrow experience would make a good musical.
There were some good jokes as usual, and Monica was even cuter than she's been in a while, but I really get the imperssion they intended for the Jack Barker arc to go on much longer when they intially planned out this season. It's hard otherwise to explain how so-so and lacking tension these recent episodes have been.
Who doesn't have PTSD on this show? I guess maybe Littlefinger and Ser Pounce?
When she asks Jon about his forces, the first words out of his mouth should have been a giant, a witch and a resurrected man.
He seemeed to be more in Lovejoy mode this episode, which was fine with me as I enjoyed that series back in the 90s.
It will be worth her being stabbed if Arya has to run to Essie Davis (Lady Crane) and Richard E. Grant for help. I missed them this episode.
She's too smart for that. Someone else will do it and face the consequences while she'll be off to the side with her "Gosh! What just happened?" expression.
It's just a random person coming up to her wearing baggy clothes you can hide a weapon in, about the same size as the Waif and with really obvious old lady makeup on, what's to fear?
She should have realized her life is basically It Follows now.

I think in this kind of thing, blood relation trumps all. It's like there's no conceivable way that Kate Middleton could ever be the monarch (or whatever the modern appropriate terminology is) in modern England no matter what happens. She can be Queen but only in a non ruling sense, due to her husband and child.…
I think Jaime is going to go soon, in the next few episodes. I see this season unfolding with the High Sparrow and Tommen dying, Cersei ascending to the throne and with Jaime dead too she'll be insane with grief. She'll lash out, and Team Stark will end the season in Winterfell caught between wights streaming down…
Ygritte. Her voice is mostly what makes her attractive at all, to some of us at least. Cersei would be a solid runner up.
First Class is the only X Men movie I truly liked. It just felt like a complete, real movie, instead of bits and pieces stitche together and a lot of muddled points, hallmarks of Singer's versions.
