One and a half men?

"My Lady Sansa,

It's a little hand-wavy how, after years of civil war during which normal channels of trade and commerce have been ripped asunder, there are still maesters dutifully going back and forth between dozens of locations with trained ravens ready to send messages.

yeah, the people who want kisses between them miss the much more interesting aspect of mutual respect.

agree. that would be such an awful and obviously contempoaneous way to go.

PLus, what little Daenerys knows of the Starks involves Ned helping Robert Baratheon to betray her father.

"Pod, did I ever tell you about the time I met some BAD PUSSY?"

apparently the Starks are the cheap Scotsmen of Westeros?

I thought it was weird that threatening Edumure's child, who he has never seen and was born of a woman he knew for one day who is the daughter of his hated enemy, was what convinced him.

It's pretty much a stupid undeath character that doesn't really add anyting to the story, but everyone has a hard-on for anyways.

Especially when their plan to go North would have involved passing through the Frey-controlled Twins

That whole sequence made me cringe. I find GW and Missandei utterly flat and boring, and this did nothing to alleviate it.

The Waif was ridiculously Terminatorish in her "pursuit"

Brienne: "Come with us, your family is in the North. Why die for a castle when you can fight for your blood?"

"Did you check on the thing that we both obviously know about, but are not directly referencing for some reason?"

She will probably burn the whole fucking city - they clearly showed how she has no allies left in Court, beyond Qybrun and Frankenmountain. She hates everyone and everything in KL.

More anticlimaxes than a brothel full of eunuchs

"All according to my plan, somehow"

Edmure says he's been captive for "years" - maybe his sense of time was distorted by imprisonment, but it's doubtful that Catelyn is in any shape for resurrection after all this time.

Interesting if Jaime comes back and has to prevent another Mad Monarch from burning KL with wildfire, again
