"Yeah, gotta give him a sploosh."

Who's to say the locals wouldn't help Brienne and Pod do some Bolton and Frey killing, if they could do it guerilla-style? They seem pretty happy to help send messages, after all.

Aemon could _send_ Sam to Oldtown if he hits a dead end in his research at the Wall. (Though that would put a damper on the theory from the Storm of Spoilers podcast that Jon finds out R+L=J from Aemon via Sam.)

I took the wrong message from the "Previously"s and expected to see the remains of the children burned in Bran and Rickon's places.

Andre's not a lawyer; he works in marketing.
