Bran. The fact that Bran knows Littlefinger's secrets makes him Littlefinger 's biggest threat.

After the Battle of Blackwater Bay Bronn was knighted and given a small estate and a noblewoman to marry. At this point he made it clear to Tyrion that he had too much too lose to continue being his lackey and refused to fight as Tyrion's champion in his trial by combat. Tyrion wasn't particularly upset or surprised…

I believe at the beginning of the books, Jon is 14 and Dany is 13.

A well-placed head, neck, or heart shot could definitely kill a dragon. The fact that the bolt was able to pierce its shoulder from that distance is actually pretty encouraging.

There was palpable sexual tension between them in the cave scene.

It's also creepy because they are blood relatives (aunt and nephew) although neither knows it yet. It will be interesting to see how the two characters react when that information is revealed.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion and GoT has flaws and plot holes like almost any show. But IMO this series does a better job than most of avoiding major plot holes and creating believable character motivations, in general. There are obviously exceptions.

I should have clarified. Littlefinger obviously doesn't know the extent or significance of what being the three eyed raven is or means. But he clearly realizes that Bran been profoundly changed by his journey north and posesses some kind of unnatural ability to know things he shouldn't and couldn't know.

Oh yes she is. She might not realize it, but she is. The Iron Bank does not cancel crown debts just because a new monarch takes over. If she refuses to pay them back there will be serious economic consequences.

It was a direct reference to that. It was also just a general reference to the fact that Arya has been constantly underestimated and belittled her entire life. Strangers who meet her think the idea of some ill-mannered tomboy being the daughter of a Lord is a joke. And aristocrats (including her own family) think the…

Ah, I guess I wasn't paying close attention for that part. I thought Cersei was double-fucked after the battle because in aedition to the Lannister army losses the gold she promised the IB was no longer on its way.

Why destroy something you can take and use yourself?

There is a reason the phrase "The Iron Bank will have its due" is well-known among Westerosi lords. They may not have an army but they always find a way to collect what they are owed from lords and kings - and those who refuse to pay often find themselves being starved for credit and facing the sudden appearance of…

Winning the battle would have simply required routing the Lannister forces until they surrendered or fled. Targeting the loot train served no immediate tactical purpose.

Jaime opened one of the wagons to inspect a pile of gold bars. Wasn't that earlier in the same scene? Or did I misremember?

Yeah, Littlefinger had best get to stepping quick. He doesn't have any allies in Winterfell, the northmen don't trust him, and the Stark children have outgrown his ability to manipulate him. He'd be foolish to stick around much longer.

"Chaos is a ladder" isn't some common saying in Westeros. It's a phrase Littlefinger once said to Varys in a private conversation at King's Landing years earlier when Bran was still in a coma thousands of miles away in Winterfell. Littlefinger knew what he was referencing. That's why he looked so scared.

Not a war crime, but the destruction of the loot train (containing valuable gold, food, and supplies) was incredibly short-sighted. They need that stuff to pay back the Iron Bank, feed people through the winter, and finish the war.

I think he's slowly realizing that the Starks have outgrown his ability to manipulate them and he's genuinely worried. He burned all his bridges with Cersei when he and the Vale forces joined the Starks and killed the Boltons. He's bet his entire political future (and possibly his life) on the prospect of ingratiating…
