When Arya said that the person after her "didn't have a name," Lady Crane would have put two and two together.

It's kind of funny seeing the Lannisters and Tyrells' annoyance at the Sparrow being infuriatingly good at governance.

They were looking for any excuse not to die in an obviously futile defense of the castle. Can't say I blame them.

Actually, one of the things I like about Edmure in the books, and now in the show, is that he refuses to blame his wife for her father's awfulness.

And in the latest iteration of the Sparrows' reign of terror, they enact a long overdue reform in the judicial system.

My first thought about the Arya plot was that there was no way she could have healed enough to run like she did. Then I figured that it must have been a time skip like this show does all the time. But then I wondered how it took the Waif so long to come after Lady Crane and Arya. And then I realized that upon learning…

This is a common misconception, so let me clear it up. In the books, hanging was not Lady Stoneheart's trademark, it was the Brotherhood's. They hanged a group of Bloody Mummers they captured while still under Beric's command.

Full disclosure, it's not mine. I got it from Got Academy.

To be fair, magic is only just beginning to make new appearances in Planetos after a hiatus of several thousand years. The maesters, most of whom haven't seen it firsthand yet, would be remiss if they weren't sceptical. And if you're referring to the theory that they killed the dragons, that wouldn't necessarily be a…

Worth mentioning, he is now going to the same place as Brienne.

Yeah, I suppose if the show had tried to do with the book did with Coldhands, they'd have had the Barristan Selmy problem.

Now that I think of it, he did play the baddie on one episode of Doctor Who. Opposite Liam Cunningham, funnily enough.

You're perhaps forgetting the previous High Septon.

Huh. I had no idea he had that reputation. All I know him from is this and his role as Brutus in Rome.

As for Olenna underestimating the Sparrow, I'd say it's completely in character. Because for all her adeptness at the game of thrones, she one blind spot; she doesn't see anyone not from an old and powerful House as a player. Back in Season 5, she thought she could buy off the Sparrow. That's not so different from…

And that makes it four actors who have played Ned Stark.

Or that could be the real Shaggydog, but Lord Umber is still planning to betray the Boltons. Remember, even if there is a mystical wargy connection between Rickon and Shaggydog in the show, Lord Umber probably doesn't know it. Even if Rickon and Osha know, they wouldn't tell him, because warging is taboo and might…

Did the Varys scene remind anyone else of the "angel" scene in Going Postal?
