I just realised this episode that she still thinks he & Sansa are responsible for Joffrey's death. I mean she never liked him before, but she wasn't this singularly focused on murdering him horribly. And he didn't even do it. Ain't that a bitch.

Well, Jamie did say that Stannis left it abandoned, which is unsurprising because at the time he left he was broke and had no soldiers after Blackwater, etc… he had to go to Braavos to beg for money and then he used it all to pay for sellswords. He didn't have the means to fund anyone to stay behind, and his march…

I feel like she and Arya would be besties. Like, Arya rolls up to Winterfell and Lyanna's there, and she's all "I haven't seen you since you were a baby! What have you been up to?" "Oh, you know, being the Baddest Bitch on Bear Island (TM), smacking down sexist lords, and giving Ramsay Bolton the motherfucking stink…

I answered upthread, further, but here's my take again:
Historic importance is relevant militarily if you're Dany. Not only was she born there, but it was also the route that the Targaryens originally took from Valyria to Westeros, before Aegon the Conqueror invaded the mainland - a conquest that was begun whilst…

Winter wardrobe time!!!

AND kinslayer, which is arguably worse.

Winter wardrobes!

Historic importance is relevant militarily if you're Dany. Not only was she born there, but it was also the route that the Targaryens originally took from Valyria to Westeros, before Aegon the Conqueror invaded the mainland - a conquest that was begun whilst standing around the same table that Dany stood in front of…

Cersei said that Stannis left it abandoned (which makes sense considering that he was broke, had to go to Braavos to beg for money, and then used it to pay a company of sellswords before getting himself killed), and my guess is that the Lannisters don't have the resources to send anyone there, judging by Jamie's…

I think that depends on where he stands now that House Frey's destroyed… if there are no Lannister soldiers there to keep him in check, he might be free now.

He's the Puppet Lord of Riverrun, right? But with the demise of house Frey, the Lannisters will have a hard time keeping him in line if they don't have any soldiers garrisoned there. If Jamie outsourced his continued shakedown of Edmure solely to house Frey after the flight of The Blackfish, He could in theory be free…

Oh my god, I just realised that Brienne should be her absolute hero. And vice versa! Why have *THEY* not teamed up?

Loose lips, etc.

That's my issue with it as well (the Ed Sheeran bit, not the Cloud Strife bit) - as soon as the singing started I thought, "Welp, this is the Ed Sheeran scene" not "The ooh, look at Arya regaining her humanity scene".

I know! He looks exactly like him now!

No

With so few episodes left, that ship's sailed. Or possibly rowing around Dragonstone with Gendry.

Oh my god. She's Theresa May.

The foolish think they know it all.
The wise know that they know nothing, John Snow.

Legality and blood are two different things, though ;)
